   Areas affected...far northeast Louisiana into west-central MS

   Concerning...Tornado Watch 2...

   Valid 052002Z - 052130Z

   The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 2 continues.

   SUMMARY...Tornado potential appears to be increasing across far
   northeast Louisiana into southwest Mississippi.

   DISCUSSION...A favorable environment for increased severe activity
   is developing across northeast LA into adjacent portions of
   west-central MS this afternoon. Temperatures have warmed into the
   upper 60s to low 70s amid cloud breaks, and surface dewpoints are in
   the 62-66 F range. This is allowing for some greater destabilization
   within an area of strong surface pressure falls (around 4 mb the
   past 2 hours) and greater low-level confluence. Semi-discrete
   convection ongoing in this area, as well as deepening convection
   moving into this region from central LA, may pose a greater tornado
   risk over the next 1-2 hours.
