Areas affected...Southern Appalachians into eastern Georgia and
western South Carolina

Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible=20

Valid 191819Z - 192015Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

SUMMARY...Thunderstorms developing across the southern Appalachians
are expected to propagate southeastward into eastern Georgia and
western South Carolina through the afternoon. These storms may pose
a severe hail/damaging wind threat through late afternoon.

DISCUSSION...Latest GOES visible imagery shows the early signs of
convective development along and ahead of an outflow boundary
associated with a dying convective cluster across northern GA and
and extreme southeast TN/southwest NC. Downstream of this activity, temperatures are warming into the upper 70s and low 80s, which is
quickly eroding MLCIN and promoting MLCAPE values upwards of 1500
J/kg to the west of a diffuse baroclinic zone. Thunderstorms will
likely intensify as they propagate along the boundary to the
southeast. Along-boundary deep-layer shear on the order of 40-50
knots will promote storm organization, potentially into a few
supercells, with an attendant threat for large hail and damaging
winds. It remains unclear whether storm mode will remain primarily
cellular with large hail as the predominant threat, or if upscale
growth into an organized cluster can occur with a more widespread
wind threat. Regardless, the severe threat is expected to increase
through the late afternoon hours, and watch issuance is possible if
convection begins to pose a robust/widespread threat.
