CONCERNING...TORNADO WATCH 10...

VALID 241951Z - 242045Z

THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT FOR TORNADO WATCH 10 CONTINUES.

BREAKS IN CLOUD COVER APPEAR TO BE PARTLY RESPONSIBLE FOR RECENT
RASH OF LOW TOPPED SHOWERS THAT HAVE DEVELOPED WELL AHEAD OF FRONTAL
CONVECTION...FROM THE FL/GA BORDER NWD INTO NERN PARTS OF WW10.
LATEST RUC GUIDANCE SUGGESTS THIS ACTIVITY IS NO MORE THAN 4-5KM
DEEP AND MAY STRUGGLE TO PRODUCE LIGHTNING UNTIL MID LEVEL
TEMPERATURES COOL ALLOWING PARCELS TO ATTAIN HIGHER LEVELS. AS A
RESULT...DEEPEST CONVECTION WILL LIKELY REMAIN WITHIN TORNADO WATCH
FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL HOURS...THOUGH CELLULAR STRUCTURES ARE
BEGINNING TO INTENSIFY...SUGGESTING SUPERCELLS MAY BECOME MORE
COMMON. DESPITE MEAGER INSTABILITY NEAR-SFC BASED UPDRAFTS COULD
PRODUCE TORNADOES.
