Looks like South Cleveland is getting a direct hit now.
Temp still rising here, Dp has plateaued for now. 74/66 Definitely feel the mugginess and humidity when I was outside a few minutes ago. Just got home from work.
VWP hodo from GSP and Columbia, quite impressive large low level hodos with lots of SRH already and somewhat decent critical angles, also note how the whole hodo from The surface to 3km and 3-10km is literally cyclonic

Watch out Mount Airy NC that storm appears to be growing again after leaving Wilkes. Going to need another warning

Moving my way at 85 mph!
That Tornado way out ahead of the main line had my fiancé shook. We have a Clayton Home so we came across the farmstead to stay at my dad’s tonight?

I know it’s been mentioned that this setup wasn’t necessarily favorable for large hail, but has there been any reports of hail in Alabama and East? I seen the pics earlier of the hail further west
I don't see any hail reports east of MS.
EDIT: There were a couple reports several hours ago in AL. Blount/Etowah Counties.

Starting to become a little concerned with the individual storms quite a ways ahead of the main line...

Feels like this is transitioning into a more linear situation and straight-line winds may be the main concern in ATL metro coming up. Hope I'm right...
Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this 1H HRRR sounding showing a cap?
Yes.

Hats off to everyone at SPC! This one was definitely a challenge to forecast. At the end of the day they had a tough decision to make in regards to moderate vs high. At the end of the day I feel like they nailed it and made the right call.
Capping inversion, which can inhibit convection.
That said, it's not a strong cap and the forcing from the upcoming front is overcoming it.

It's now 77 with a heat index of 79. Pretty unreal.
Still kind of debating setting an alarm for way earlier than normal for me just to check on the progress of these storms.
Edit: Think I'm gonna gamble a little here and just sleep, like I said elsewhere (what I normally do even on nights like this). Maybe I'll sleep through a heavy storm or be woken up, who knows?
