One or more watches will likely be issued for parts of the area within an hour or two. DISCUSSION...Widely scattered severe thunderstorms, including a couple discrete supercells and organized clusters, are tracking eastward across northwest/west-central MS -- focused ahead of a northeast/southwest-oriented cold front moving across the region. Over the next several hours, this activity will continue spreading east-southeastward along/ahead of the front into central MS and eventually northern/central AL. Given an increasingly large component of front-parallel deep-layer shear with time, there may be a gradual tendency for storms to grow upscale into a semi-continuous line. Nevertheless, around 50 kt of effective shear and upwards of 200 m2/s2 effective SRH (beneath a focused low-level jet) will promote embedded supercells -- given strong pre-convective instability. A few tornadoes, damaging winds, and large hail will all be possible. One or more watches will likely be issued for parts of the area within an hour or two. ...Weinman/Gleason.. 05/20/2025 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!_ixmtV-5LKyg3BFVYhRoSbGeMHavdkVNqHw8TItHdfYw-15oTnNquP8jgVEuEUx_GBCQIvTTn= _rFMSH6Tc3jzhMDLN0$ for graphic product...
