Damaging gusts and tornadoes will be possible as convection develops/spreads east into these areas. DISCUSSION...Stronger surface heating is noted across the MCD area amid diffuse upper clouds and increasing midlevel clouds. While boundary-layer dewpoints are modest in the low to mid 60s F, some minor increases in moisture also are possible over the next few hours. This should result in modest destabilization amid strong deep-layer shear as the bow echo currently near Mobile Bay continues to shift east this afternoon. With time, low-level shear is expected to increase. This will result in more favorable/enlarged low-level hodographs supporting tornadoes, in addition to damaging wind potential, both along the apex of the bow and with any cells ahead of/merging into the bow. A tornado watch will likely be needed within the hour across portions of the MCD area. ...Leitman/Guyer.. 04/10/2024 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!5BwKnw1tOVrZj-L09-dEkbNhS8bA-uI5jGRMKUHujvdOCTGE5QlnZL8hWezK-1ofr6d-rR5lo= gLr9O6nIBH-P_Fd6Bk$ for graphic product...
