   Areas affected...the eastern Carolinas into southern Georgia

   Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely 

   Valid 282024Z - 282230Z

   Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

   SUMMARY...Marginal risk for hail and wind to continue with
   thunderstorms through the afternoon.

   DISCUSSION...Thunderstorm activity along cold front extending across
   the Carolinas into southern Georgia is ongoing this afternoon, with
   a few cells becoming briefly organized (with echo tops around 30-35
   kft). Overall, storms have struggled to remain organized likely with
   weakening large scale ascent and poor mid-level lapse rates. Ahead
   of the front, daytime heating has allowed development of SBCAPE
   around 1000-2000 J/kg amid deep layer shear around 50-65 kts. A few
   of the longer lived cells that can become organized may pose a risk
   for hail. As cells become clustered and linearly forced along the
   front, a few damaging wind gusts will be possible. This will
   continue to be monitored but a watch is unlikely to be needed at
   this time.
