A mesoscale discussion from SPC:
MESOSCALE DISCUSSION 1304
NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
1126 AM CDT TUE JUN 10 2008
AREAS AFFECTED…ALABAMA
CONCERNING…SEVERE POTENTIAL…WATCH UNLIKELY
VALID 101626Z – 101730Z
INCREASING CONVECTIVE COVERAGE IS EXPECTED OVER ALABAMA OVER THE
NEXT FEW HOURS. LARGE HAIL AND ISOLD DMGG WIND IS POSSIBLE. A WW IS
NOT ANTICIPATED.
ROUGHLY SW TO NE ORIENTED OUTFLOW BOUNDARY IS SLOWLY PROGRESSING EWD
ACROSS AL EARLY THIS AFTERNOON. CU FIELD AND COOLING TOPS OBSERVED
ON SATELLITE IMAGERY REFLECTS INCREASING THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT IN
AN UNSTABLE ATMOSPHERE. SBCAPE VALUES NEAR 2500 J/KG AND FORCED
ASCENT ALONG OUTFLOW MAY SUPPORT A FEW VIGOROUS UPDRAFTS/ISOLD
STRONG STORMS CAPABLE OF PRODUCING LARGE HAIL AND DMGG WINDS. GIVEN
ISOLD NATURE…A WW IS NOT ANTICIPATED AT THIS TIME.
