Administrators NorthGeorgiaWX Posted May 8 Administrators Share Posted May 8 MD 0706 CONCERNING SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 207... FOR SOUTHERN NC AND NORTHERN SC Mesoscale Discussion 0706 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0258 PM CDT Wed May 08 2024 Areas affected...Southern NC and northern SC Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 207... Valid 081958Z - 082130Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 207 continues. SUMMARY...A swath of large hail from 1-1.75 inches in diameter and damaging winds of 55-70 mph will remain likely as organized clusters across western parts of North Carolina and South Carolina progress east into this evening. DISCUSSION...An organized, outflow-dominated cluster is currently approaching Charlotte, while a separate supercell exists south of Spartanburg. Low-level shear/SRH remains quite weak in area VWP data, suggesting that this outflow-dominated evolution will persist downstream across the rest of the Piedmont towards the coastal plain. With surface temperatures peaking in the upper 80s to low 90s, MLCAPE of 2000-2500 J/kg has become common. With enhanced westerly mid/upper flow over the southern Appalachians, a continued severe hail/wind threat is expected straddling the Carolina border area for the next several hours. ..Grams.. 05/08/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
