Areas affected...portions of central/eastern Georgia into central
South Carolina
Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 486...
Valid 122046Z - 122215Z
The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 486
continues.
SUMMARY...The potential for damaging wind gusts continues across
Severe Thunderstorm Watch 486. Some potential for isolated damaging
gusts may also develop/persist downstream into portions of
northeastern SC/southeastern NC with time.
DISCUSSION...Widely scattered thunderstorm activity continues across
Severe Thunderstorm Watch 486 as of 2045 UTC, with isolated reports
of damaging wind gusts noted over the past 1-2 hours. Continued
heating of a moist low-level air mass continues to support
moderately strong buoyancy (MLCAPE of 2000-2500 J/kg) and steep
low-level lapse rates. This environment favors the continued
potential for damaging wind gusts across the Watch area,
particularly from eastern GA into western SC where low-level lapse
rates are steeper.
Latest objective analysis also depicts a zone of steeper low-level
lapse rates across portions of southeastern NC. Convection evolving
eastward from northern SC and/or additional thunderstorm development
across the NC Coastal Plain may pose a risk for isolated damaging
wind gusts through this evening, but downstream watch issuance
appears unlikely at this time due to the expectation for this risk
to remain isolated in nature.
