Afternoon Thunderstorms

(Sunday 3pm) In the wake of an approaching front we have a relatively unstable atmosphere here in the Pine Belt. Temps in the mid-70's with some sun and very moist air is aiding in the formation of some isolated thunderstorms rolling across our area. In fact, SPC has issued a Tornado watch for Pearl River, Stone, George, Green, Perry, Forrest, Lamar, Jones, Wayne, Jasper, and Clarke Counties till 9PM. This isn't a classic setup for a major severe weather outbreak, but this scenario could produce high wind, hail, and even a possible tornado. No storm reports have been received so far today, but I'll be tracking this whole system till it leaves the area. Follow me on twitter at http://twitter.com/wdamtannercade
