   Areas affected...Parts of southeast Illinois into southern Indiana

   Concerning...Tornado Watch 200...

   Valid 302353Z - 010100Z

   The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 200 continues.

   SUMMARY...A locally favorable tornado corridor is evident from parts
   of southeastern Illinois into southern Indiana in the near-term --
   within Tornado Watch 200.

   DISCUSSION...Several discrete mini supercell structures are evolving
   along an east/west-oriented warm front from southeast IL into
   southern IN. Ahead of these storms, the IND VWP is sampling a
   clockwise-curved hodograph with around 250 m2/s2 0-1km SRH along the
   front (based on observed storm motion). Given the narrow overlap of
   this boosted SRH and surface-based instability, a locally favorable
   tornado corridor is evident in the near-term.
