Severe 2024 Severe Discussion

It is 79/74 this morning starting with good sun. Hoping the central NC stuff stays away and let's us percolate all day until the storms come in later. We don't any clouds or rain now if we want severe later

That is now a warned system and intensifying. If a cyclone is present it's rain wrapped and probably not super visible 1000073283.jpg
 
If something is still on ground it's about to pass right over a dense neighborhood just north of Hamilton

nothing showing in CC so probably all good. rotation appears to continue weakening.
 
There’s something in between Augusta GA and Columbia SC that seems to kill storms, because I just watched that GA storm go from beast to completely non existent lol

Been cloudy most of the day here after the storms that rolled through this morning. Had some good house shaking thunder. It is muggy as hell outside, so maybe it'll be enough for more storms if the sun doesn't come out for a while.

I don't think we can recover in the wake of the morning mcs mcv. I think this afternoon is dead for us locally

Well, that would be par for the course. Under a level 2 threat for today and all the action was last night and this morning.

Sun has been peeking out for a while here, though.
 
Watch likely coming soon.

Mesoscale Discussion 1016
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0137 PM CDT Mon May 27 2024

Areas affected...portions of northern South Carolina...eastern North
Carolina...southeastern Virginia

Concerning...Severe potential...Watch likely

Valid 271837Z - 272000Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...80 percent

SUMMARY...The severe threat is increasing across portions of
northeast SC into southeastern VA. Multicells, line segments, and
supercells will likely develop this afternoon and pose a threat for
large hail and damaging gusts. A tornado or two also cannot be ruled
out. A WW issuance will likely be needed in the next hour or so.

DISCUSSION...Strong diurnal heating is contributing to
destabilization of the boundary layer, with surface temperatures
rising into the 80s F amid upper 60s to low 70s F dewpoints,
boosting MLCAPE over 2000 J/kg over many locales. As the 500 mb vort
max over northern NC continues to progress east, and as MLCINH
continues to erode, thunderstorms should develop in the next couple
of hours, and increase in both coverage and intensity through the
afternoon. A 35+ kt southwesterly low-level jet is overspreading the
Carolinas, beneath a westerly 60+ kt 500 mb jet, contributing to
modestly curved and elongated hodographs. As such, multicells, short
line segments, and occasional supercells, will all be possible
convective modes, accompanied by a large hail/damaging gust threat.
Some forecast soundings show large enough low-level hodograph
curvature to support an isolated tornado threat closer to the NC/VA
coastline.

Given the expected coverage of potential severe weather this
afternoon, a WW issuance will likely be needed in the next hour or
two.
