Valid 311104Z - 311230Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 85 continues. SUMMARY...Damaging wind potential will spread east into portions of northern/north-central AL this morning. DISCUSSION...A QLCS/bowing line of convection near the northeast MS state line will continue to shift east into portions of northern/north-central AL this morning. Radar trends from KGWX showed a few mesovortices/areas of rotation as this line approached the radar. This indicates potential for locally enhanced damaging gusts and perhaps a brief tornado. Regional VWP data shows modestly enlarged low-level hodographs with 0-1 km shear around 25-35 kt on the nose of an increasing southwesterly low-level jet. This may be sufficient for a brief tornado, though the predominant risk is expected to remain damaging gusts as the line of convection continues east through the morning hours. ...Leitman.. 03/31/2025 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!6BZwmOYI7_kZQQpP8LCkemWdoZpMK3OJrvQ8D-HGYjj881sBcredWeEgEb28HgvIbdSpY3Njv= 0GjP8ogh9n7vo2FOUw$ for graphic product...
