Not sure about that,storm mode looks like it should last until we start to lose diurnal heating ,severe should last until then at least..IMO

Yeah, I see what you're seeing upon further review (hence, the post edit). Looking at the latest HRRR, I think western middle TN needs to definitely keep their guard up through 4/5 pm CT as there may be a few cells that pull a repeat of what was happening near Sharon earlier. I’m hoping things start to improve tonight, especially the further east you go from metro, but the window is probably longer than I initially suspected. A few hours ago, I was still thinking the storm mode was too messy but it sure seems we're seeing greater instability. I’m not liking these latest trends…

 Mesoscale Discussion 2305
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   0159 PM CST Sat Dec 09 2023

   Areas affected...Western/central KY...Western/middle TN...Northwest
   MS...Eastern AR...Northwest AL

   Concerning...Tornado Watch 714...

   Valid 091959Z - 092130Z

   The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 714 continues.

   SUMMARY...The threat for a few tornadoes and isolated severe
   wind/hail will continue through the afternoon, with storm coverage
   expected to increase with time.

   DISCUSSION...A broken line of supercells is ongoing early this
   afternoon from western TN into eastern AR, with occasional rotating
   cells noted within a larger storm cluster across western KY. A
   supercell cluster currently approaching the TN/KY border produced an
   earlier apparent tornado in northwest TN, with another tornado
   recently noted just southwest of the KHPX radar. The other cells
   along the broken line will continue to pose a threat of all severe
   hazards as they move east-northeastward. These cells are ongoing
   along and just ahead of a composite outflow boundary/cold front that
   will continue to move eastward this afternoon. Deep-layer flow
   parallel to the boundary may encourage an increase in storm coverage
   and a transition to more of a mixed mode with time, though embedded
   supercells will likely continue to be possible through the
   afternoon, with all severe hazards possible. 

   The greatest short-term tornado threat (including the potential for
   a strong tornado) will likely continue to be focused from far
   northwest MS into western/middle TN, southern KY, and eventually
   extreme northwest AL, where the most favorable overlap of
   low-level/deep-layer shear (including 0-1 km SRH of 150-250 m2/s2
   noted on regional VWPs and objective mesoanalyses) and instability
   (MLCAPE of 1000-1500 J/kg) will persist this afternoon, prior to the
   arrival of the front. This area is being upgraded to an Enhanced
   Risk (driven by 10% tornado probabilities) in the upcoming 20Z
   outlook. Also, downstream watch issuance will likely be needed later
   this afternoon, as storms approach a larger portion of middle TN
   into northwest AL.

Day 1 Convective Outlook  
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   0203 PM CST Sat Dec 09 2023

   Valid 092000Z - 101200Z

   ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER WESTERN
   AND MIDDLE TENNESEE...AND SMALL PARTS OF NORTHERN MISSISSIPPI AND
   FAR SOUTHERN KENTUCKY...

   ...SUMMARY...
   Several tornadoes, scattered large hail and areas of damaging winds
   are expected through the afternoon into the evening from portions of
   the Ohio and Tennessee Valleys southward to the Lower Mississippi
   Valley and middle Gulf Coast.

   ...Lower MS Valley into much of TN and southern KY...
   Tornado probabilities have been increased within an Enhanced Risk
   for the unfolding tornado situation over western into Middle TN and
   far southern KY, and extending into northern MS. 

   Cells have remained discrete and are currently within a developing
   instability plume, adjacent to an area of enhanced low-level shear
   over Middle TN, southern KY and northern MS. The combination of
   favorable storm mode, and fully-effective 0-1 SRH of 150-200 m2/s2
   will pose a damaging tornado risk through the late afternoon. The
   greatest threat area may remain relatively concentrated due to the
   cooler air mass to the east, but an isolated strong tornado or two
   is possible.
