Discussion              

A potent cold front will cross the Mississippi and Tennessee valleys later today and tonight increasing the chance for severe weather to include the possibility of damaging winds, hail and even isolated tornadoes.  A low-level jet will strengthen today as associated surface low pressure intensifies significantly.  The front will slide east of here at mid-week and temperatures will drop noticeably with highs likely confined to the upper 40’s on Thursday.
