   Concerning...Tornado Watch 10...

   The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 10 continues.

   SUMMARY...A severe threats for wind damage and a few tornadoes will
   move quickly eastward across into western and northern Georgia, and
   across the remainder of southern and eastern Alabama during the
   early morning. New weather watch will be necessary ahead of the
   ongoing line.

   DISCUSSION...A mid-level trough will move quickly eastward across
   the lower to mid Mississippi Valley over the next few hours, as a
   surface low moves into the central Appalachians. An associated front
   is located over the central Gulf Coast states, with an organized
   squall line located ahead of the front. A narrow corridor of
   instability is analyzed ahead of the front, with surface dewpoints
   generally in the 60s F. In addition, RAP analysis shows a strong low
   to mid-level jet from eastern Mississippi northeastward into the
   southern Appalachians. 0-6 km shear is estimated to be in 65 to 80
   knot range along this corridor and storm-relative helicity is very
   strong. This will continue to support a widespread severe threat
   over the next few hours. Severe gusts will be likely along the
   leading edge of the squall line and a few tornadoes also possible.
