    Mesoscale Discussion 0706

    Areas affected...2Southeast Louisiana and southern Mississippi

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20

    Valid 111938Z - 112115Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent

    SUMMARY...A few strong storms with gusty outflow winds possible the
    next few hours.

    DISCUSSION...In advance of a remnant MCV and the primary shortwave
    trough over east TX, ascent is increasing across southern LA this
    afternoon. Thunderstorms have already developed in southwest LA,
    and should continue to expand eastward along a slow-moving front
    into southeast LA and southern MS through the afternoon. Surface
    temperatures have only warmed slowly as a result of persistent
    clouds, but boundary-layer dewpoints near 70 F are supporting MLCAPE
    of 1000-1500 J/kg with minimal convective inhibition along the
    boundary. Though deep-layer shear appears sufficient for organized
    storms at first glance, regional VWPs show very weak flow in the
    lowest 3-4 km AGL. Thus, the potential for severe/persistent storms
    will remain marginal and limited to isolated downbursts with
    precipitation loading and/or melting of small hail.
