   Areas affected...Northern Mississippi into western Tennessee and
   western Kentucky

   Concerning...Tornado Watch 98...

   Valid 022039Z - 022245Z

   The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 98 continues.

   SUMMARY...A corridor of strong/intense tornado potential is evident
   in northern Mississippi and western Tennessee.

   DISCUSSION...A corridor of greater tornado risk becoming evident in
   northern Mississippi and western Tennessee. Several discrete storms
   have developed in an environment supportive of strong/intense
   tornadoes. KPAH and KNQA VAD show ample low-level hodograph
   curvature (250-325 m2/s2 0-1 km SRH). With the low-level jet
   strength forecast to increase over the coming hours, the environment
   will become even more favorable with time.
