   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   950 AM CDT Sat Jun 7 2025

   The NWS Storm Prediction Center has issued a

   * Severe Thunderstorm Watch for portions of 
     East central Arkansas
     Northern Mississippi
     Southwest Tennessee

   * Effective this Saturday morning and afternoon from 950 AM until
     400 PM CDT.

   * Primary threats include...
     Scattered damaging winds likely with isolated significant gusts
       to 75 mph possible
     Scattered large hail events to 1.5 inches in diameter possible
     A tornado or two possible

   SUMMARY...An organized convective line and lead cluster are expected
   to merge into a single, larger/bowing line of storms through early
   afternoon as the storms move across southwest Tennessee and northern
   Mississippi.  Damaging winds up to 75 mph will be the main threat,
   though the strongest embedded storms could also produce large hail
   up to 1.5 inches in diameter.  An isolated tornado or two may also
   occur with embedded circulations in the line.

   The severe thunderstorm watch area is approximately along and 75
   statute miles east and west of a line from 55 miles northeast of
   Memphis TN to 35 miles south of Oxford MS. For a complete depiction
   of the watch see the associated watch outline update (WOUS64 KWNS
   WOU4).

   PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

   REMEMBER...A Severe Thunderstorm Watch means conditions are
   favorable for severe thunderstorms in and close to the watch area.
   Persons in these areas should be on the lookout for threatening
   weather conditions and listen for later statements and possible
   warnings. Severe thunderstorms can and occasionally do produce
   tornadoes.
