    Areas affected...portions of the North Carolina Piedmont

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely

    Valid 102030Z - 102230Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...A locally greater risk for damaging wind gusts is likely
    to materialize across the North Carolina Piedmont over the next
    several hours.

    DISCUSSION...Aided by subtly enhanced mid-level flow associated with
    a remnant mid-level MCV, convection has loosely organized into a
    linear band across portions of central North Carolina over the past
    1-2 hours, with several reports of damaging wind gusts (and a
    measured 43 kt wind gust) noted in the Charlotte vicinity. While
    further appreciable organization remains unlikely owing to weak
    deep-layer shear, this loosely organized band is impinging on a hot (temperatures approaching 100 F) and moist low-level air mass with
    both high PW and steep low-level lapse rates. This is expected to
    result in a locally greater threat for water-loaded downbursts and
    damaging wind gusts (largely in the 45-55 mph range, locally higher)
    across the North Carolina Piedmont through this evening.
