another day another severe thunderstorm watch till 8pm

The same frontal boundary which has been in place since Wednesday will again be the trigger for scattered to numerous thunderstorms late this afternoon and evening. LI values are in the extremely unstable range near -10 just east of Bowling green  and cape values near 3000 which are even more favorable for severe weather than they were Wednesday. Any storms that develop today although more scattered than Wednesday  will have the threat to produce hail and gusty winds across the region.

Spc discussion:

DISCUSSION…THUNDERSTORMS HAVE DEVELOPED ALONG A ZONE OF WEAK
   CONVERGENCE IN NERN AR/WRN TN AND ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP NEWD INTO
   SRN KY. STRONG INSTABILITY COMBINED WITH STRONGER WINDS ALOFT WILL
   LIKELY RESULT IN STORMS WITH SEVERE HAIL…LOCALIZED DOWNBURSTS AND
   HEAVY RAINFALL.
