   THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH
   270...272...CONTINUES.

   SUMMARY...STRONG WIND GUSTS PRODUCING TREE DAMAGE SHOULD GRADUALLY
   SUBSIDE ALONG A BULGING QLCS EVOLVING EWD ACROSS THE TN VALLEY
   TOWARDS THE SRN APPALACHIANS.

   DISCUSSION...5-9 KM MSL CAPPI REFLECTIVITY HAVE SAMPLED GRADUALLY
   DIMINISHING VALUES ALONG THE QLCS THAT ARCS FROM MIDDLE TN TO
   N-CNTRL AND W-CNTRL AL. THIS WEAKENING TREND HAS BEEN MOST
   PRONOUNCED ACROSS THE NRN PORTION OF THE LINE WHICH APPEARS TO BE
   DRIVEN PURELY ON MOMENTUM WITHIN A MORE STABLE THERMODYNAMIC
   ENVIRONMENT PER 00Z BNA RAOB. THIS TREND HAS ALSO BEEN NOTED IN
   INBOUND VELOCITIES WITH SURFACE WIND GUSTS LIKELY TO HOLD AOB 40
   KT...BUT STILL CAPABLE OF TREE DAMAGE.

   FARTHER S...DEEPER /ALBEIT WEAKENING/ UPDRAFTS HAVE BEEN SUSTAINED
   NEAR/SW OF BHM. WITHIN A RESIDUAL WARMER AIR MASS /CHARACTERIZED BY
   SURFACE TEMPERATURES STILL IN THE UPPER 70S/...CONVECTION HAS BEEN 
   ATTEMPTING TO FORM JUST AHEAD OF THE LINE ALONG A NW/SE-ORIENTED
   CONFLUENCE BAND AROUND 30 NE SEM. SPORADIC TREE DAMAGE AND EVEN
   MARGINAL HAIL MAY PERSIST FOR A FEW MORE HOURS DESPITE LESS
   FAVORABLE ORIENTATION TO THE DEEP-LAYER SWLY FLOW.
