.AVIATION...
...SEVERE WEATHER THREAT THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH MID EVENING...

POOR FLYING WEATHER ACROSS MIDDLE TENNESSEE THIS AFTERNOON AND
THROUGH MUCH OF TONIGHT DUE TO THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT. 125 KNOT
UPPER JET JUST NOW NOSING ACROSS SOUTHERN ARKANSAS AND INTO NORTHERN
MISSISSIPPI ALONG WITH SURFACE HEATING WILL INCREASE THE THREAT AS
WE GO THROUGH THE AFTERNOON MAINLY IN THE FORM OF DISCRETE SUPERCELLS.
BEST TORNADO THREAT DURING AFTERNOON APPEARS TO BE SOUTHERN THIRD
OF MIDDLE TENNESSEE. TIMING IS SOMEWHAT DIFFICULT AS DISCRETE SUPERCELLS
COULD FORM AT ANY TIME BUT AM KEEPING A KEEN EYE ON NORTH MISSISSIPPI
AS IT WILL BE THOSE STORMS THAT RACE NORTHEASTWARD AND POSE THE GREATEST
THREAT FOR TORNADOES.
