Severe Weather Threat - June 17th-18th, 2023

Kansas, South Dakota, and Oklahoma have had no tornadoes this month while Mississippi has had 1. Based on the preliminary June severe weather reports as of June 12th.
 
FYI the only two June Tornado Watches for North MS since 1997 were on June 2nd, 2003 and again on June 9th, 2014.
 
SPC MESO:
.......As the vorticity max moves east-southeastward,
additional convective initiation is expected from east-central
Arkansas eastward across northwest Mississippi. The moderate
instability, strong deep-layer shear and strengthening low-level
shear will make supercell development possible later this evening.
Large hail and wind damage will initially be possible, but an
tornado threat may also eventually develop especially across
northern Mississippi.

Boy, with that louisiana storm spinning up that quick, it warrants a greater concern as to what may happen this evening.
 
HRRR intent on late night threat for MS and AL, with some possible development out ahead of the main MCS. Hope people will be aware as they go to bed tonight.

Me too! It’s beautiful outside here in North MS right now after storms this morning. Storms are to our west though, and we were just put under a tornado watch until 1 AM.

Some rapid initiation west of Jackson. Those cells will probably be the ones to watch for the next few hours.
