ADDITIONALLY...REGION IS LOCATED IN DIFFLUENT FLOW REGIME DOWNSTREAM

THE LOWER MS RIVER VALLEY. MARITIME TROPICAL AIRMASS AND CONTINUED

ADDITIONAL HOURS...WITH ONLY A SLOW SEWD PROPAGATION OF THE
ORGANIZED CONVECTIVE LINE EXPECTED. HIGH PW VALUES IN EXCESS OF

NRN AL THROUGH LATE MORNING. AT THE SAME TIME...MINIMAL COLD POOL
STRENGTH WILL LIMIT POTENTIAL FOR SEVERE WINDS...WITH MODEST
MID-LEVEL LAPSE RATES AND LINEAR CONVECTIVE MODE LESSENING THREAT OF
SEVERE HAIL. PRIMARY THREAT WILL LIKELY BE HEAVY RAIN THROUGH MUCH
OF THE MORNING...HOWEVER...DIURNAL HEATING MAY RESULT IN ROBUST
SEVERE STORMS DEVELOPING UPWIND OF CURRENT E-W LINE BY EARLY
AFTERNOON.
