NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0125 PM CDT Fri Aug 28 2020
Areas affected...middle TN...central KY
Concerning...Tornado Watch 465...
Valid 281825Z - 281930Z
The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 465 continues.
SUMMARY...Damaging gusts near bowing segments will be the primary
threat but a brief tornado will be possible with the
stronger/longer-lived mesovortices.
DISCUSSION...Radar mosaic shows an arcing squall line from parts of
western KY into middle TN on the eastern periphery of Laura's rain
shield over the lower OH/TN Valleys. Surface temperatures have
warmed into the lower 80s F with dewpoints in the lower to mid 70s.
The high precipitable water environment will remain conducive for
water-loaded downdrafts in the inflection/bowing segments as the
larger-scale squall line moves northeast this afternoon. It is
within the inflections within the squall line where there is
conditional risk for a brief tornado.
