The stronger storms will have potential for hail, strong gusts and a brief tornado. Weather watch issuance may become necessary later this morning. DISCUSSION...The latest mosaic radar imagery in the Tennessee Valley shows numerous thunderstorms along an east-to-west outflow boundary, from southern Kentucky into northern Tennessee. To the south of this convection, the RAP has moderate instability in place, with MLCAPE generally in the 2000 to 2500 J/kg range. Forecast soundings in northern Tennessee this morning suggest the activity is surface-based. WSR-88D VWPs along and near the outflow boundary have 0-6 km shear in the 45 to 50 knot range, which will continue to be sufficient for supercells and bowing line segments. Wind damage and hail the primary threats. However, VWPs also have 0-1 km shear in the 20 to 25 knot range near this feature, suggesting that a brief tornado will be possible with embedded supercells. ...Broyles/Edwards.. 05/08/2024 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!5cOUzAinQEBABqESjNvXG641n4hMxfFxrS3kVStyq9L-NAm1yipYFzSTSXXjIxfRoB5kkeeeD= JW7KUIuVPC290jbF3w$ for graphic product...
