   Mesoscale Discussion 0262
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   0825 PM CDT Sat Mar 28 2020

   Areas affected...Northern MS...Northwest AL...Western/Middle TN

   Concerning...Tornado Watch 71...

   Valid 290125Z - 290300Z

   The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 71 continues.

   SUMMARY...Squall line is organizing and shifting east across ww71.
   New tornado watch will likely be issued by 0230z.

   DISCUSSION...Large-scale forcing appears to be aiding upward
   evolving squall line across the Mid-South this evening. Over the
   last few hours a slow maturation has been noted and its forward
   propagation is on the order of 35kt to the east. This speed/movement
   would place the leading edge of strongest convection near the
   eastern edge of ww71 around 03z and through much of Middle TN into
   northwestern AL by 06z. New tornado watch will likely be issued by
   0230z.
