March 3, 20233 yr Author Not a good sign for the areas that may see a break in the clouds later today. Hopefully nothing comes of it.
March 3, 20233 yr Author Storms across parts of the Mid-South region have entered a relative lull in severe risk, but with isolated severe gusts and a tornado or two still possible the next couple hours, amidst weak but still surface-based buoyancy. Activity should strengthen/reorganize substantially later this morning into afternoon as it sweeps northeastward across the remainder of the Tennessee and lower Ohio Valley regions.

March 3, 20233 yr Author Mesoscale Discussion 0245 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1144 AM CST Fri Mar 03 2023 Areas affected...western Kentucky...far southern Indiana Concerning...Tornado Watch 60... Valid 031744Z - 031945Z The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 60 continues. SUMMARY...A corridor of tornadoes and significant wind damage is likely over the next several hours. DISCUSSION...An arcing line of storms is strengthening near a deep surface low, with 977 mb measured at the PAH observation at 17Z. Drying aloft is aiding clearing and surface heating now ahead of this line, which will further increase low-level instability. Shear profiles are extreme with 0-1 SRH over 500 m2/s2. Both tornadoes and swaths of hurricane-force winds are expected with this line as it rapidly moves east coincident with the low. Enhanced lift where this line of storms intersects the warm front may be a favored area for a strong tornado as well.
March 3, 20233 yr The state of Kentucky seems to always be in the line of fire anymore. Not a good feeling. Still overcast, raining and cold in NKY.
March 3, 20233 yr 1 hour ago, nWo said: 72 mph wind gust just reported near Hickman, KY. Wow! It is windy here but nothing like that. Those kind of winds will tear a lot of structures up.
