A watch is not currently anticipated. DISCUSSION...Regional radar composite at 1530z shows a linear MCS along the central Gulf Coast, with the most intense portion over far southern Mississippi from near Hattiesburg south to the New Orleans metro. Isolated severe gusts or wind damage have occurred with this line over the past few hours as it moves generally east at 30 mph. Instability over land remains modest with MLCAPE generally at or below 750 J/kg and higher instability expected to remain offshore. A continued isolated severe risk is expected through early afternoon as the storms move east given a downstream environment with MLCAPE of 500-800 J/kg and around 40 kts of of west/southwest effective shear. Isolated strong/damaging gusts will remain the primary risk. Some potential may exist for transient low-level rotation with storms moving inland ahead of the line, or with embedded circulations within the line as low-level shear appears sufficient to support at least a localized risk. The isolated nature of the severe risk should preclude the need for a watch. ...Bunting/Hart.. 12/30/2022 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!41LWNGzvEsTnTgQCju_ktP4FNeaXQdh4j1c4uynRHUxYqkPExkKLhvdJKp4gPEVcx-UrZVqBb= apWTDcZvfSnN4xgpIA$ for graphic product...
