   Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 321...

   Valid 270205Z - 270330Z

   The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 321
   continues.

   SUMMARY...The damaging-wind threat will continue in the short term,
   before an anticipated weakening trend late tonight.

   DISCUSSION...Some intensification of ongoing convection has recently
   been noted across central NC, with an east-southeastward moving
   storm cluster now overtaking a strong discrete cell that had
   developed ahead of the line. Some damaging-wind threat may persist
   in the short term ahead of this cluster, as it moves into a region
   where rather strong heating/mixing occurred earlier today. 

   Only modest deep-layer shear and weak low-level flow were noted on
   the 00Z GSO sounding, though some increase in low-level flow has
   recently been noted on the KRAX VWP, and stronger midlevel flow to
   the southwest may begin impinging upon the ongoing storm cluster.
   Gradually increasing downstream MLCINH should eventually result in a
   weakening trend later tonight, such as what has already occurred
   across southern VA. However, at least an isolated damaging-wind
   threat may persist to the eastern edge of WW 321.
