Special Statement
Statement as of 8:25 AM CST on January 29, 2013
...Severe weather threat exists across the mid state tonight and
Wednesday morning...
...Strong gusty gradient winds expected across the mid state...
A powerful storm system will move into the mid state tonight. This
storm system will interact with an increasingly unstable air mass
and very strong atmospheric winds to produce severe thunderstorms
beginning along the Tennessee River around midnight tonight and
spreading eastward.
The main threat appears to be damaging straight line winds but a few
isolated tornadoes are possible along the line as well.
In addition...a tight surface pressure gradient will cause frequent
gusts over 35 mph this afternoon and on Wednesday...with gusts over
45 mph tonight. Tree limbs will likely be downed and loose objects
blown around. Entire trees may be blown down and power outages may
occur. Also...difficult driving conditions can be expected.
Stay tuned to NOAA Weather Radio or your local media for the
latest updates on this potential severe weather situation.
