 Mesoscale Discussion 1982
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   0445 PM CST Fri Dec 10 2021

   Areas affected...Eastern Arkansas...southeast Missouri...southern
   Illinois...southeast Indiana...and western Kentucky.

   Concerning...Tornado Watch 552...

   Valid 102245Z - 110015Z

   The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 552 continues.

   SUMMARY...A slow increase in storm intensity/coverage is expected
   over the next 1 to 2 hours.

   DISCUSSION...Initial storms which developed near Little Rock have
   not shown much organization thus far. In addition, weak cellular
   convection is developing across much of the Mississippi River
   region. However, a strong capping inversion, sampled by the 19Z LZK
   RAOB is likely limiting more robust storm development thus far. As
   heights continue to fall this evening, expect these warmer mid-level
   temperatures to erode further and expect greater storm coverage and
   intensity. Once mature supercells can develop, all severe hazards
   remain possible as the environment remains favorable with 0 to 1 km
   shear now in excess of 35 knots per KLZK VWP.

Day 1 Convective Outlook AMEND 2
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   0508 PM CST Fri Dec 10 2021

   Valid 110100Z - 111200Z

   ...THERE IS A MODERATE RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS THIS EVENING
   INTO TONIGHT FROM NORTHEAST AR/SOUTHEAST MO INTO WESTERN TN/KY AND
   SOUTHERN IL...

   AMENDED TO INCREASE SEVERE PROBABILITIES IN NORTHEAST TEXAS AND
   SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA

   ...SUMMARY...
   A few strong tornadoes, damaging gusts, and large hail are all
   expected beginning this evening across Arkansas and Missouri, with
   the greatest tornado threat close to the confluence of the
   Mississippi and Ohio Rivers.  The damaging wind and tornado threat
   will persist overnight while spreading eastward into the Tennessee
   Valley and northeastward across the Ohio Valley overnight.

   Northeast Texas: Isolated thunderstorms are developing a bit farther
   west across northeast Texas than earlier anticipated. With ample
   moisture/instability across this region ahead of the front will
   increase severe probabilities across this region.

   The previous forecast appears to be on track, and little change is
   needed at 20Z.

   At 19Z, a dryline was located near the I-35 corridor from north TX
   into OK, with gradual warming and destabilization noted eastward
   into AR. Upwards of 1500 J/kg MLCAPE is already in place there, with
   further warming along with dewpoints holding in the upper 60s F.
   While capping currently exists over most areas, the deepening moist
   boundary layer is forecast become uncapped prior to 00Z over AR, and
   this will support possible supercell development with tornado threat
   evolving east-northeastward into western KY/TN through the evening.
   Otherwise, expanding storm coverage is likely around 03Z along/ahead
   of the cold front as large scale lift increases across the MS and OH
   Valleys, with very strong shear favoring tornadoes, possibly strong.


   For more information on the AR and southeast MO area, see mesoscale
   discussion 1978.

 Mesoscale Discussion 1986
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   0622 PM CST Fri Dec 10 2021

   Areas affected...portions of far northeast Arkansas into the
   Missouri Bootheel...far western Tennessee...extreme southwest
   Kentucky

   Concerning...Tornado Watch 552...

   Valid 110022Z - 110115Z

   The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 552 continues.

   SUMMARY...Locally higher tornado threat potentially materializing
   with a maturing supercell across northeast Arkansas. Potential
   exists for this supercell to become long-lived, with
   sustained/strong tornadoes possible over the next few hours.

   DISCUSSION...KLZK, KNQA, and MRMS mosaic radar data all depict an
   intense supercell in progress across the Jackson/Woodruff County AR
   area, where deep-layer ascent and LLJ intensity both continue to
   increase in magnitude. Latest LZK and NQA radar data also depicts a
   possible TDS, suggesting that the supercell may have already
   produced a tornado. The 00Z LZK sounding shows that the convective
   inhibition above the boundary layer has eroded, with a moist and
   unstable boundary layer likely advecting ahead of the ongoing storm.
   The 00Z sounding, along with the 2352Z NQA VWP shows a relatively
   long/curved hodograph with 0-1 and 0-3 km SRH at/over 300 m2/s2.
   Low-level shear is only expected to increase with further
   intensification of the LLJ over the MS river. Furthermore, several
   of the recent HRRR runs have also depicted a long-tracked supercell
   across this region. As such, this supercell may obtain a
   steady-state structure, with additional tornadoes (some strong)
   potentially accompanying this storm through early evening.
