..Small Hail and Cold Air Funnel Clouds Possible Through this
Afternoon...

Scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms are forecast through
this afternoon, mainly near and east of the Mississippi River. Due
to very cold temperatures just off the ground, some of the showers
or thunderstorms could produce small hail and cold air funnel
clouds.

Cold air funnels are due to very cool air aloft...warm moist air
near the ground...and are usually in association with a strong
area of low pressure in the upper levels of the atmosphere. Due to
little or no wind shear...they are usually very brief and rarely
reach the ground. If the funnels do reach the ground, minor wind
damage is possible.
