A Tornado Watch issuance will be needed soon. DISCUSSION...MRMS mosaic radar imagery has shown a gradual increase in the intensity of convective cells embedded within the broader rainbands associated with Hurricane Francine, which are attempting to move ashore. Surface temperatures/dewpoints in southeastern LA are in the upper 70s/mid 70s F, which are contributing to 500+ J/kg MLCAPE. At the same time, low-level shear continues to increase along the Gulf Coast, with the HDC VAD profiler showing increasingly curved hodographs, with nearly 200 m2/s2 0-3 km SRH noted. Low-level shear should continue to increase through the afternoon, with a subsequent increase in tornado potential likely as well. Given the increasing severe risk, a Tornado Watch issuance will be needed soon. ...Squitieri/Guyer.. 09/11/2024 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!-a5kYK-ZD7VcJTe0vNqGuiteccH3tarOFaQgrDsT_8DtlTAIHL2L34_8c0YiX-2x4whi-qK6O= I9Qwwy98Ny9nA0-kmg$ for graphic product...
