WW 78 TORNADO KY TN 310125Z - 310800Z
URGENT - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED Tornado Watch Number 78 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 825 PM CDT Sun Mar 30 2025 The NWS Storm Prediction Center has issued a * Tornado Watch for portions of Central Kentucky Western and Middle Tennessee * Effective this Sunday night and Monday morning from 825 PM until 300 AM CDT. * Primary threats include... A few tornadoes likely with a couple intense tornadoes possible Scattered damaging wind gusts to 70 mph likely Scattered large hail and isolated very large hail events to 2 inches in diameter possible SUMMARY...Strong to severe thunderstorms are ongoing within a convective line that extends from southern IN through western KY into western TN. This line is expected to continue eastward into the moist and moderately unstable airmass downstream across central KY and western/middle TN. The environment supports a continuation of the ongoing strong to severe storms. Persistent moderate to strong low-level shear will support the potential for tornadoes embedded within this line. Large hail and strong gusts are possible as well. The tornado watch area is approximately along and 60 statute miles east and west of a line from 45 miles northeast of Bowling Green KY to 105 miles southwest of Nashville TN. For a complete depiction of the watch see the associated watch outline update (WOUS64 KWNS WOU8). PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS... REMEMBER...A Tornado Watch means conditions are favorable for tornadoes and severe thunderstorms in and close to the watch area. Persons in these areas should be on the lookout for threatening weather conditions and listen for later statements and possible warnings. && OTHER WATCH INFORMATION...CONTINUE...WW 72...WW 74...WW 75...WW 76...WW 77...

MD 0311 CONCERNING TORNADO WATCH 72...76... FOR FAR NORTHEAST ARKANSAS...WESTERN AND MIDDLE TENNESSEE...WESTERN KENTUCKY
Mesoscale Discussion 0311 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0802 PM CDT Sun Mar 30 2025 Areas affected...Far Northeast Arkansas...Western and Middle Tennessee...Western Kentucky Concerning...Tornado Watch 72...76... Valid 310102Z - 310300Z The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 72, 76 continues. SUMMARY...A severe threat will likely develop this evening across western and middle Tennessee northward into western and central Kentucky. Weather watch issuance will likely be needed across the region soon. DISCUSSION...The latest mosaic radar imagery shows a well-developed linear MCS from northeast Arkansas northeastward into far western Kentucky. Ahead of the MCS, a moderately unstable airmass is present, with the RAP showing MLCAPE in the 1500 to 2500 J/kg range. The MCS is located near the exit region of a 60 to 70 knot mid-level jet, which is providing favorable large-scale ascent and strong deep-layer shear supportive of severe storms. The latest WSR-88D VWP at Hopkinsville, Kentucky is sampling the nose of the jet, with 0-6 km shear near 60 knots. The VWP also has strong directional shear in the lowest 2 km AGL. This shear environment will be favorable for supercells, embedded in the line or with isolated storms ahead of the line. Supercells will be accompanied by a threat for large hail and wind damage. Severe wind gusts will also be possible along the leading edge of the faster moving line segments. The stronger parts of the line could produce wind gusts above 70 mph. Supercells that become particularly intense and remain discrete could have tornado potential as well. ..Broyles.. 03/31/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

MD 0312 CONCERNING TORNADO WATCH 76... FOR SOUTHERN HALF OF OHIO...FAR NORTHEASTERN KENTUCKY...AND FAR WESTERN WEST VIRGINIA
Mesoscale Discussion 0312 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0813 PM CDT Sun Mar 30 2025 Areas affected...Southern half of Ohio...far northeastern Kentucky...and far western West Virginia Concerning...Tornado Watch 76... Valid 310113Z - 310315Z The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 76 continues. SUMMARY...A squall line capable of producing severe wind gusts and mesovortex tornadoes will continue eastward across the southern half of Ohio. A local extension of Tornado Watch 76 is warranted, and trends are being monitored for an additional downstream watch as well. DISCUSSION...The latest radar data from ILN depicts a north/south-oriented squall line with embedded mesovorticies tracking eastward at around 40 kt across the southern half of Ohio. Ahead of the line, the ILN 00Z soundings sampled deep low-level moisture and modest lapse rates -- contributing to 500 J/kg MLCAPE (higher farther south). Despite the marginal instability, a 40 kt low-level jet is favoring a clockwise-curved low-level hodograph with around 330 0-1 km/effective SRH (per the 00Z sounding and recent VWP data). Given the well-established cold pool and moist/high-helicity inflow, severe gusts upwards of 70 mph and mesovortex tornadoes remain possible in the near-term. Tornado Watch 76 will be extended to account for this near-term severe risk, and areas farther downstream are being monitored for an additional downstream watch. However, storms will eventually be approaching the eastern edge of the warm sector, and limited buoyancy will eventually limit the severe risk. ..Weinman/Mosier.. 03/31/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

MD 0313 CONCERNING SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH POSSIBLE FOR SOUTHEAST ARKANSAS...FAR NORTHEAST LOUISIANA...WESTERN MISSISSIPPI
Mesoscale Discussion 0313 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0837 PM CDT Sun Mar 30 2025 Areas affected...Southeast Arkansas...Far Northeast Louisiana...Western Mississippi Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible Valid 310137Z - 310400Z Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent SUMMARY...A severe threat may develop this evening across parts of southeast Arkansas, far Northeast Louisiana and western Kentucky. Isolated large hail and wind damage will be possible. DISCUSSION...The latest surface analysis shows a cold front in central Arkansas, with a moist airmass located ahead of the front across much of southeastern Arkansas, Mississippi and Louisiana. Just ahead of the front, surface dewpoints are in the mid 60s F. This is contributing to MLCAPE in the 2000 to 2500 J/kg range, estimated by the RAP. Along the western edge of the stronger instability, isolated storms have formed about 40 statute miles south of Little Rock. The WSR-88D VWP at Little Rock has 0-6 km shear near 50 knots. This shear environment could support severe storm development. However, some question remains whether the large-scale forcing is strong enough for upscale growth of convection. The RAP has 700-500 mb lapse rates across southeast Arkansas and western Mississippi around 7.5 C/km, suggesting that the storms could produce isolated large hail. In addition, supercells that develop would likely be accompanied by severe wind gusts. ..Broyles/Mosier.. 03/31/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
