   CONCERNING...CONVECTIVE TRENDS 
   
   VALID 100254Z - 100500Z
   
   CONVECTION IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE TO SPREAD EWD AS UPPER LEVEL
   SHORTWAVE OVER ECNTRL MS CONTINUES ITS RAPID EWD MOVEMENT.  MUCAPES
   IN THE REGION RANGE FROM ABOUT 1500 J/KG OVER SRN AL AND DECREASE TO
   ABOUT 1000 J/KG IN SWRN GA. ALTHOUGH THE STORMS ARE MAINLY ELEVATED
   ALONG AND NORTH OF SURFACE BOUNDARY WHICH EXTENDS FROM JUST SOUTH OF
   BGE TO CEW TO JUST NORTH OF PIB...EFFECTIVE SHEAR NEAR THE GULF
   COAST REMAINS AOA 40 J/KG. 
   
   WITH THE LOSS OF DAYTIME HEATING/DIMINISHING INSTABILITY STORMS HAVE
   BEEN DECREASING IN INTENSITY THROUGH THE EVENING. THE LARGE SCALE
   ENVIRONMENT BECOMES LESS FAVORABLE WITH TIME AS THE AFOREMENTIONED
   SHORTWAVE MOVES EWD...SO STORMS ARE EXPECTED TO CONTINUE TO WEAKEN
   FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE EVENING. 
   
   DUE TO THE ISOLATED SEVERE THREAT ANOTHER WW IS NOT ANTICIPATED AT
   THIS TIME.
