Mississippi, Louisiana, and the Southeast United States:
WALT Model 2 indicates an increase in tightness of non-polar NO3 within polar H2O molecules this afternoon north, northeast, and east of Jackson Mississippi for Friday in updraft potential for EF-0 to EF-2 tornadoes. Also, Southern Arkansas and Northern Louisiana have the potential EF-0 to EF-2 tornadoes. Storm mode development is expected to be polar positive and associated with supercell development is indicated near Jackson Mississippi and near Monroe Louisiana on Friday. A new area of EF-3 to possibly EF-4 tornadoes will be possible along the Mississippi River Delta of Western Mississippi and Eastern Arkansas. Otherwise, non-polarity to polarity mix is the rule across the Southeast United States which indicates hail, wind, and heavy rainfall (flooding) are possible. There are quite a bit of EF-1 polarity indications across the region for potential tornadoes but for this discussion we are looking at the potential for stronger tornadoes and where they could be located according to WALT Model 2.
