DISCUSSION...Radar shows a decelerating outflow boundary extending from extreme northeast AR to just northeast of the Memphis TN area. Recent trends indicate strengthening storms on the southern fringe/outflow of the southeast MO MCS, with impressive echo IR presentation. Surface analysis confirms a very moist and unstable air mass remains in place south of the AR activity and west of the TN outflow, with dewpoints approaching 80 F in spots. Given the uncapped air mass and robust convection now ongoing over northeast AR, a new watch will likely be issued downstream extending into parts of western TN and northern MS. ...Jewell/Edwards.. 07/18/2023 ATTN...WFO...MEG...LZK...
