    Areas affected...Parts of middle/eastern TN into southeast KY and
    far southwest VA

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 4...

    Valid 070041Z - 070215Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 4 continues.

    SUMMARY...Some threat for a tornado or two, hail, and damaging wind
    will continue through the evening.

    DISCUSSION...A supercell has gradually matured over the last 1-2
    hours to the northeast of Nashville, while other cells continue to
    develop and intensify near and just north of a surface boundary
    across southeast KY. Some increase in low-level flow/shear was noted
    earlier from the KOHX VWP, with short-term guidance suggesting that
    low-level flow will continue to increase this evening as ongoing
    convection spreads eastward into eastern TN and far southeast
    KY/southwest VA. With nocturnal cooling/stabilization expected to be
    only gradual through the evening, MLCAPE will likely remain in the
    500-1000 J/kg range in advance of the ongoing convection, with
    favorable deep-layer shear continuing to support supercell
    structures and potentially one or more semi-organized clusters.=20

    With only a slow increase in MLCINH expected, ongoing supercells may
    persist through much of the evening, with some potential tendency
    toward modest upscale growth with time. While low-level flow remains
    rather veered, effective SRH in excess of 200 m2/s2 will support
    some tornado threat with any persistent right-moving supercells.
    Otherwise, isolated large hail will be possible, especially with any left-moving supercells, while damaging wind could accompany any
    stronger supercells or organized clusters.
