    Areas affected...southern Kentucky and northern Tennessee

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible=20

    Valid 042029Z - 042300Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...60 percent

    SUMMARY...Thunderstorms are expected to increase in coverage and
    intensity through the afternoon across the area. Convective trends
    will be monitored for the possibility of a watch.

    DISCUSSION...Warm sector convection has slowly deepened with time
    with some intensification of cells as they cross over the stationary
    front in southeastern Kentucky. Updraft intensity so far has been
    muted by a warm layer around 700 mb, but additional destabilization
    and subtle height falls into the evening should result in more
    robust updraft development over the next few hours. Modest
    low-level shear (per local VWPs) should support some tornado
    potential, especially along the surface boundary, but damaging winds
    and hail should be the primary threats with the strongest storms.=20
    With storm motion predominantly to the northeast, storms will
    eventually cross to the cool side of the boundary, resulting in hail
    being the primary threat and eventual weakening of storms. The
    coverage and intensity of storms will be monitored regarding the
    need for a watch.
