Areas affected...portions of central into southern Alabama

Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely 

Valid 092031Z - 092130Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

SUMMARY...The severe threat may be increasing with discrete warm
sector development. Any storm that matures could be accompanied by
all severe hazards. However, the threat appears isolated and A WW
issuance is not currently expected.

DISCUSSION...Relatively robust convection is attempting to become
established across parts of southern AL while drifting northward
along convective remnant outflow. This storm is maturing while
moving north into an increasingly sheared airmass. Though low-level
shear is not particularly strong, RAP forecast soundings depict
hodographs with modest low-level curvature and upper-level
elongation, supportive of supercell structures. Should convection
persist and further intensify with northward extent, supercells
capable of damaging gusts, severe hail, and perhaps a tornado may
materialize. There is uncertainty in how intense ongoing storms will
become, or many additional storms may form through the afternoon. As
such, a WW issuance is not currently anticipated.
