A WEAK FRONT STRETCHING FROM EAST TO WEST ACROSS CENTRAL PARTS OF AL AND MS WILL DRIFT SLOWLY SOUTH AND BECOME DIFFUSE NORTH OF THE CWFA THROUGH TUESDAY. SOUTH OF THE FRONT DEEP LAYERED MOISTURE COMBINED WITH CAPES RANGING FROM 2000 TO 3000 J/KG AND MARGINAL LAPSE RATES WILL HELP GIVE WAY TO MORE SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS THIS EVENING AND WEDNESDAY...WITH BETTER COVERAGE AND A FEW STRONGER STORMS MOSTLY OVER INLAND SECTIONS OF AL AND MS DURING THE AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING HOURS.
