Areas affected...Central Louisiana into portions of central
Mississippi

Concerning...Tornado Watch 20...

Valid 111947Z - 112145Z

The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 20 continues.

SUMMARY...Tornadoes and very large hail remain possible for storms
that can mature and interact favorably with the warm front in
central LA/MS.

DISCUSSION...Showers and thunderstorms continue to develop within
the warm sector across parts of central LA/MS. Observations have
shown the warm front has lifted very near or just north of Jackson,
MS. Overall mid-level ascent remains weak as the primary synoptic
trough lags to the west. However, forcing should continue to
steadily increase this afternoon and evening as the trough moves
east. It is likely that storms that can initiate will take time to
mature given the less than optimal background ascent. Storms that
can mature and interact with the warm front will pose a threat for
tornadoes, some potentially strong, and very large hail. With the
warm front slowly lifting north, the southern flank of activity in
northern/central MS will have the potential to become surface based
with an attendant increase in severe weather threat.
