Valid 162033Z - 162200Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 498 continues. SUMMARY...The severe/damaging wind threat continues with thunderstorms moving east-southeastward. Downstream watch issuance is possible. DISCUSSION...Multiple measured severe wind gusts and associated damage have been noted with a cluster of thunderstorms as they advanced eastward across northwestern into north-central LA and far southern AR. Very strong instability is present downstream of this activity across eastern LA into parts of southern MS, with MLCAPE generally ranging from 3000-4000 J/kg. Even though deep-layer shear remains weak, the rather favorable thermodynamic environment will likely support a continued threat for scattered severe/damaging winds as the cluster moves east-southeastward along/south of an instability gradient. Given this expectation and ongoing organization of the cluster, with additional updrafts forming on its southwestern flank/outflow, downstream watch issuance into more of eastern LA and southwestern MS is being considered. ...Gleason.. 07/16/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!6xW-Ca42XZT6bXoEhVlHd26ZCG0x9sppicVe0VAJPJxQaxg7AhZQ1RqfHO_UkDKj7o3VAWFnV= l9IhmUEqkAkme2sbsg$ for graphic product...
