   Areas affected...Mississippi...Far Northeast Louisiana

   Concerning...Tornado Watch 584...

   Valid 140505Z - 140700Z

   The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 584 continues.

   SUMMARY...A severe threat is expected to continue during the
   overnight period across parts of western and central Mississippi.
   Wind damage, tornadoes and hail will be possible with the more
   intense storms. Weather watch issuance may be needed to the east of
   WW 584.

   DISCUSSION...The latest WSR-88D radar imagery from Jackson,
   Mississippi shows an organized line of storms from northeast
   Louisiana into northwest Mississippi with more discrete cells ahead
   of the line. This large area of convection is located along an axis
   of instability with MLCAPE generally in the 500 to 1500 J/kg range.
   In addition, 0-6 km shear along this corridor is in the 50 to 60
   knot range according to RAP analysis. This shear environment will
   continue support supercell development overnight. The more intense
   cells that remain discrete will likely have tornado potential. A
   tornado and wind-damage threat will also exist with the more
   organized line segments, with the tornado threat mostly confined to
   areas where the surface dewpoint is at 63 F or greater. At this
   time, persistent supercells are ongoing within the center of WW 584.
    The track of these storms will determine if a new watch needs to be
   issued further to the east across parts of central and eastern
   Mississippi.
