SPC Mesoscale Discussion: Tornado Watch 82… 83…
SUMMARY…Short-term severe threat remains focused along a corridor from southeastern LA into eastern MS.
DISCUSSION…Two distinct MCVs appear to have evolved within a larger complex of convection. Longer-lived MCV is lifting northeast across south-central LA, east of LFT. A more recent MCV is maturing over west-central MS. Strong-severe convection is a bit more concentrated ahead of these mesoscale features with embedded supercells along the leading edge of a larger MCS. Latest diagnostic data suggests adequate buoyancy has developed ahead of this complex such that sustained organized structures are expected to persist into the late afternoon, especially given the strengthening wind fields across this region.
