Mesoscale Discussion 2064 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0728 PM CDT Thu Sep 12 2024 Areas affected...central Alabama Concerning...Tornado Watch 671... Valid 130028Z - 130230Z The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 671 continues. SUMMARY...A small area of conditional tornado potential remains over parts of central Alabama, but probabilities will continue to drop over time. DISCUSSION...Prior to sunset, visible satellite showed areas of agitated CU along a confluence line, and west of a warm front which now stretches from near Birmingham AL into southwest GA. A moist air mass remains over the region, with precipitable water in excess of 1.80". Scattered cells, primarily elevated, developed over east-central AL, and persist this evening. Despite the moist troposphere, instability is not particular strong, and, confined to a relatively narrow axis just west of the warm front. Low-level shear remains favorable in a conditional sense for rotating storms/supercells, however, it appears unlikely at this point that any robust convective machinations will develop to take advantage of said shear. ..Jewell.. 09/13/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
