   Mesoscale Discussion 1030
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   0711 PM CDT Sat Jun 27 2020

   Areas affected...North-central Alabama

   Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely 

   Valid 280011Z - 280115Z

   Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

   SUMMARY...A brief/weak tornado threat will persist through 01Z.

   DISCUSSION...A cluster of storms has interacted with an outflow
   boundary from earlier convection across northern Alabama. This has
   resulted in multiple reports of weak tornadoes. The environment is
   not overly favorable for a sustained tornado threat per KBMX and
   KHTX VWP, and base velocity from KHTX shows very weak rotation with
   these cells. However, a continued threat for brief/weak tornadoes
   may persist through 01Z as low-level vorticity along this outflow
   boundary is stretched vertically. Boundary layer cooling after 01Z
   should bring an end to this short duration threat.
