Areas affected...Northeast Alabama and northwest Georgia

Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 430...

Valid 012052Z - 012245Z

The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 430
continues.

SUMMARY...An environment favorable for strong/severe downburst winds
remains in place across portions of northeast Alabama and northwest
Georgia.

DISCUSSION...Over the past couple of hours, the highest
concentration of thunderstorms has largely remained across
north-central to northwest AL with an expanding cold pool noted in
recent surface observations and RTMA analyses. To the east of this
area, more isolated convection has largely left the environment
across northeast AL into northwest GA largely intact with
temperatures remaining in the mid 90s, low-level lapse rates near 8
C/km, and MLCAPE values between 3500-4000 J/kg. A thunderstorm
cluster west of the Atlanta metro has recently demonstrated an
uptick in intensity (per GOES IR imagery and lightning trends),
which confirms that this environment remains favorable for robust
deep convection. While it remains unclear exactly how widespread
thunderstorm coverage will become through the evening hours, the
potential for strong to severe downbursts and clustering/upscale
growth remains across eastern portions of WW 430.
