    Mesoscale Discussion 1097

    Areas affected...Northeast AR...Far northwest AL

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible

    Valid 201425Z - 201630Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

    SUMMARY...Strong, damaging wind gusts and hail are possible with the
    evolving convective cluster across northeast/east-central AR. Trends
    will be monitored for possible watch issuance.

    DISCUSSION...Cluster of thunderstorms in place over northeast AR has
    produced strong wind gust and occasional severe hail during the past
    hour. Recent radar imagery suggests the storms have become more
    linear in character as the cold pool surges southward/southeastward.
    Additional development is possible along the southwestern flank of
    this line as warm-air advection, supported by modest westerly flow
    (confirmed by the KSRX and KLZK VAD wind profiles), feeds into this
    area. Agitated cu on recent visible imagery appears to confirm this
    process. Even with this occurring, there is some question to just
    how strong this additional development will be and how organized the
    cold pool will becoming, largely because warm low-level temperatures
    (25 deg C at 850 mb on the 12Z LZK sounding) are acting to inhibit
    overall updraft strength. However, given the very moist airmass,
    seasonally steep lapse rates, and enhanced northwest flow aloft, the
    potential exists for the development of a more organized/mature
    convective line. Trends will be monitored closely for signs of a
    maturing and/or surging convective line that would merit watch
    issuance.
