Areas affected...eastern AR...northern LA
Concerning...Tornado Watch 563...
Valid 050544Z - 050645Z
The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 563 continues.
SUMMARY...Isolated wind damage and perhaps a brief/weak tornado will
remain possible as a squall line moves eastward across eastern AR
and northern LA over the next couple of hours.
DISCUSSION...Radar mosaic shows an extensive squall line from
northeast AR south-southwestward into north-central LA as of 1240am
CDT. Surface analysis indicates the low-level moisture plume
featuring rich moisture becomes increasingly pinched from a
west-east standpoint with northward extent in southeast AR. The
orientation of the squall line is most favorable for wind-damage
potential across the I-40 corridor in eastern AR where the kinematic
fields are impressively strong. However, buoyancy becomes
increasingly marginal within this corridor per slightly cooler
surface temperatures and dewpoints (near 70 deg with lower 60s
dewpoints) compared to farther south over far southeast AR/northern
LA where temperatures and dewpoints are appreciably higher. Given
the ongoing squall line's eastward progression over the next couple
of hours, expecting the wind-damage risk to gradually move east and
slowly lessen with time as it moves to the MS River.
