Areas affected...South-central Missouri and portions of western
Arkansas

Concerning...Tornado Watch 705...

Valid 050214Z - 050345Z

The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 705 continues.

SUMMARY...The potential for embedded severe gusts and perhaps a
brief tornado continues across portions of Tornado Watch 705. A
local watch extension or a new watch could eventually be needed,
though it is unclear how long the severe risk will persist.

DISCUSSION...A northeast/southwest-oriented semi-continuous
convective line continues to advance slowly east-northeastward from
south-central MO into western AR, with additional
warm-advection-driven cells immediately ahead of the line. Regional
VWP data depicts around 50 kt of 0-6 km shear oriented parallel to
the convective line, generally supporting a continued linear mode.
While meager instability is generally limiting updraft intensity,
upper 60s to lower 70s dewpoints (decreasing with northward extent)
and a 50-55 kt low-level jet (and related warm
advection/clockwise-curved hodographs) may support a continued
severe threat for the next couple of hours. The primary concerns are
embedded severe gusts and perhaps a brief tornado or two (both
embedded in the line and with any discrete cells ahead of the line).
It is unclear if a local watch extension or new watch will be
needed, though convective trends are being monitored.
