Areas affected...Portions of western/central Georgia and the Florida
Panhandle

Concerning...Severe potential...Watch likely 

Valid 311334Z - 311530Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...95 percent

SUMMARY...The threat for damaging winds will continue into Georgia
and the central/eastern Florida Panhandle. A less certain and
conditional tornado threat will also exist. A watch is likely this morning.

DISCUSSION...Modest surface heating is ongoing in parts of
central/southwestern Georgia where cloud cover has been more broken.
These areas have seen temperatures rise into the low 70s F this
morning. At least muted surface heating can be expected into the
afternoon. Observed 12Z soundings from Birmingham/Atlanta show steep
mid-level lapse rates, but also subsidence in the wake of a weaker
lead shortwave/MCV. With an upstream shortwave trough now entering
the Ozarks/Mid-South, additional mid-level ascent should promote
more favorable thermodynamic profiles with time. Current VAD data
from the region also shows relatively weak low-level flow. Again, as
the trough moves into the Southeast, an increase in 850 mb winds is
expected to occur. Overall, the primary severe threat should remain
damaging winds. The tornado threat is less certain as, even with an
increase in low-level winds, forecast hodographs still are rather
marginal. Nonetheless, a few QLCS tornadoes or perhaps even a
warm-advection-driven supercell tornado ahead of the line are still
possible. A watch will likely be needed this morning as activity
currently in Alabama and southern Mississippi continues east.
