Additional storms may move south from northern MS this evening. A new weather watch is likely needed. DISCUSSION...Across portions of the lower MS Valley, afternoon heating and subtle forcing for ascent ahead of a shortwave trough has helped erode inhibition over portions of eastern LA and southern MS. Deepening cumulus and incipient thunderstorms were noted developing across the region. Very moist surface conditions with low to mid 70s F dewpoints and moderate mid-level lapse rates near 7 C/km were aiding in the development of large buoyancy 3000+ J/kg of MLCAPE. Enhanced northwesterly flow aloft is also supportive of an unusually strong wind profiles, with 50-60 kt of effective shear observed on area VWPs. Robust organized updrafts with a predominately supercellular mode are expected to continue to develop this afternoon. Hail, some possibly 2+ in, is likely with supercells, along with the potential for isolated damaging gusts. Hi-res guidance is somewhat uncertain on storm coverage late this afternoon and evening given relatively modest forcing for ascent. However, additional development upstream may allow for some upscale growth with a risk for damaging winds in the evening. Given the favorable parameter space, a new weather watch is being considered for portions of far eastern LA, southern MS and western AL. ...Lyons/Grams.. 06/16/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!_rCkSbRFumDwBF827beMnyKWvgaq6-y8gofTslRtZaBYIcrQRNCOOKcVWbpDDnp7CWdqbUMtU= -Mym-N7BXJAxW9HFII$ for graphic product...
