NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE KNOXVILLE/TRI-CITIES TN
1020 PM EDT THU APR 16 1998

BUSY MORNING WITH SEVERE CONVECTION MOVING IN FROM MIDDLE TN AND NEW STUFF
FORMING OVER CWA.  MODIFIED BNA SOUNDING LOOKS LIKE MORE OF A TORNADO
SOUNDING AS CELLS MOVE DUE EAST INCREASING HELICITY LOCALLY.  PARTS
OF LINEAR CONVECTION WILL HAVE MORE STRAIGHT LINE WIND DAMAGE.  IN
ADDITION...NEARLY SATURATED SOUNDING WITH PW OF 1.42 AT BNA WILL
RESULT IN FLOODING OF VARIOUS DEGREES AS ECHOES TRAIN.  MOST WILL BE
URBAN/SMALL STREAM FLOODING WITH ISOLATED FFW EXPECTED LATER.  DO NOT
RECOMMEND FFA ATTM...AS FLORA HAS THICKENED CONSIDERABLY AND BLV FLOODING
WILL BE MORE SPOTTY THAN WIDESPREAD TODAY.  TONIGHT MAY BE ANOTHER STORY
AS SEVERE CONVECTION WEAKENS AND TEMP/DP SPREADS NARROW.

AGREE WITH TEMPS AND POPS IN ZONES...WE MAY BE A LITTLE COOLER THAN
FORCAST IN NORTHERN ZONES AS CLOUDS KEEP SUN OUT...BUT DONT BELV AN
UPDATE IS IN ORDER.

GOTTA RUN.
