    Areas affected...southeast Alabama...southwest Georgia and the
    Florida Panhandle

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch likely=20

    Valid 101735Z - 101900Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...80 percent

    SUMMARY...Severe potential is expected to increase from the Florida
    Panhandle northward across far southeast Alabama into southwest
    Georgia this afternoon. Damaging gusts and tornadoes will be
    possible as convection develops/spreads east into these areas.

    DISCUSSION...Stronger surface heating is noted across the MCD area
    amid diffuse upper clouds and increasing midlevel clouds. While
    boundary-layer dewpoints are modest in the low to mid 60s F, some
    minor increases in moisture also are possible over the next few
    hours. This should result in modest destabilization amid strong
    deep-layer shear as the bow echo currently near Mobile Bay continues
    to shift east this afternoon. With time, low-level shear is expected
    to increase. This will result in more favorable/enlarged low-level
    hodographs supporting tornadoes, in addition to damaging wind
    potential, both along the apex of the bow and with any cells ahead
    of/merging into the bow. A tornado watch will likely be needed
    within the hour across portions of the MCD area.
