MESOSCALE DISCUSSION 1020
NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
0904 AM CDT WED JUN 10 2009

AREAS AFFECTED...WRN TN INTO NRN MS AND NWRN AL

CONCERNING...SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH POSSIBLE

VALID 101404Z - 101530Z

TSTMS ONGOING OVER WRN TN ARE EXPECTED TO INTENSIFY THIS MORNING AND
CONVECTIVE TRENDS ARE BEING MONITORED FOR A POSSIBLE WW. SLIGHT
RISK WILL BE ADJUSTED SWD WITH UPCOMING 1630Z ISSUANCE.

12Z UPPER-AIR ANALYSIS INDICATES THAT A QUITE MOIST LOW-LEVEL AIR
MASS EXISTS THIS MORNING FROM THE OZARK PLATEAU INTO LOWER MS VALLEY
WITH DEWPOINTS OF 70-75 F AND 100 MB MEAN MIXING RATIOS OF 15-17
K/KG. THIS MOISTURE COINCIDES WITH A PLUME OF STEEP MIDLEVEL LAPSE
RATES...CONTRIBUTING TO A MODERATE TO POTENTIALLY STRONGLY UNSTABLE
AIR MASS AS TEMPERATURES WARM THROUGH THE 80S.

PLAN VIEW PROFILER AND VWP DATA INDICATE ANTICYCLONIC MID TO
UPPER-TROPOSPHERIC FLOW ACROSS THE REGION WHICH SHOULD SUPPORT A
CONTINUED SEWD MOTION OF ONGOING STORMS OVER WRN TN. GIVEN THE
STEEP LAPSE RATES...DEGREE OF CONVECTIVE INSTABILITY AND 40-50 KT OF
DEEP LAYER SHEAR...POTENTIAL WILL EXIST FOR UPSCALE GROWTH INTO A
BOWING SYSTEM CAPABLE OF DAMAGING WINDS AND SEVERE HAIL.
