    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 328...

    Valid 260443Z - 260615Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 328
    continues.

    SUMMARY...Wind-damage potential may persist into the early morning.

    DISCUSSION...A rather long-lived and extensive QLCS continues to
    move across parts of central AL late this evening. An earlier bowing
    segment across northern AL has weakened, and both the northernmost
    and southernmost portions of the QLCS are tending to sag
    southeastward with time, with the gust front advancing ahead of the
    deeper convection. The most vigorous part of the QLCS at the moment
    is across west-central AL, where the line has taken on a more
    north-south orientation and is currently surging eastward. Favorable
    low-level moisture and moderate downstream buoyancy may help to
    sustain this portion of the line and the attendant wind-damage
    threat in the short term.=20

    The longevity of the organized severe threat with this QLCS is
    uncertain, with low-level flow and deep-layer shear expected to
    remain modest at best. However, if the eastward-surging line segment
    can keep pace with the outflow, then some wind-damage threat could
    spread into east-central/southeast AL and west-central/southwest GA
    with time. Cells developing ahead of the line in the vicinity of the
    remnant outflow could also be strong to marginally severe into the
    early morning. Potential for any downstream watch issuance will
    depend on trends regarding QLCS organization and the downstream
    environment over the next 1-2 hours.
