Mesoscale Discussion 0091
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   1045 AM CST Thu Feb 06 2020

   Areas affected...Portions of Southern and eastern Georgia...Portions
   of Florida Panhandle and North Florida

   Concerning...Severe potential...Tornado Watch likely 

   Valid 061645Z - 061815Z

   Probability of Watch Issuance...95 percent

   SUMMARY...An increase in the threat for damaging wind gusts and a
   few tornadoes is expected this afternoon in portions of
   southern/eastern Georgia and North Florida. A new tornado watch will
   be needed soon to replace eastern parts of WW 26 as well as include
   areas farther east.

   DISCUSSION...An ongoing line of thunderstorms continues to move out
   of eastern Alabama into western Georgia. While the environment ahead
   of this activity will continue to become more favorable for severe
   storms, this process will likely be relatively slow on account of
   widespread cloud cover inhibiting surface heating. Discrete showers
   have formed ahead of the cold front in western Georgia, but have
   struggled to mature over the last hour. Strong low-level winds are
   evident on WSR-88D VAD profiles within the region with enlarged
   low-level hodographs. Storm mode would suggest that strong/severe
   wind gusts will be the primary threat with activity moving out of
   Alabama and into Georgia. However, a few tornadoes will be possible,
   particularly with any discrete activity that can mature ahead of the
   cold front.

   With WW 26 scheduled to expire at 18Z, a new tornado watch will be
   needed relatively soon to replace eastern portions of WW 26 while
   including areas further downstream into South Carolina.
