...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE CAROLINAS
INTO PARTS OF GA AND AL...

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE MID
ATLANTIC SOUTHWESTWARD TO THE CENTRAL GULF COAST...

...SUMMARY...
Scattered severe thunderstorms capable of damaging wind as well as
isolated hail or a brief tornado remain possible this evening from
the Carolinas into northern Georgia and central Alabama.

...Discussion...
A broken line of storms along a cold front currently extends from
central NC and SC across northern GA, central AL and into southern
MS and LA. The front will continue to progress rapidly eastward,
with some increasing wind fields forecast across the Mid Atlantic.
As such, have expanded to the Slight Risk to include all of eastern
NC. 

Although storms are lined up along the front as of 00Z, several
cellular entities are embedded or even just ahead of the wind shift.
With strong wind shear including effective SRH in excess of 300
m2/s2, supercells will remain possible mainly across the Carolinas
and northeast GA where damaging wind, isolated hail and perhaps a
brief/weak tornado could occur although instability is a bit lacking
with relatively high T/Td spreads. A southward-moving outflow
boundary will also limit areal extent of any wind/tornado threat,
currently carving out parts of northeastern NC. For more information
see MCD 250 and 251.
