MORE STORMS LATER
Don’t look now, but thunderstorms are refiring over eastern Mississippi.
The question is whether the airmass behind our first line of storms will be able to destabilize. I didn’t think so, but the radar is beginning to say otherwise.
The most important factor is the surface low. It is really deepening rapidly near Memphis. The pressure has dropped to 992 millibars.
We will likely see additional severe storms behind the main line. All modes of severe weather because of the proximity of the deepening low.
