4/24/20-4/26/20 possible severe weather

The lastest SPC MD really has me wondering if they truly have interns running the place right now. Btw, this isn't coming from me, Jeff Crum even tweeted this, a couple of days ago.
 
Third cell is moving east instead of northeast (and it just went tor warned again), looks like this one may impact me more

Had a very quick burst of wind and heavy rain with few hailstones from that one, only a couple minutes though. Only thing I saw from any of the three. That one seems to be just a tick South. But boy that train over HWY 11! I imagine there is some flash flooding from those 3 as well.
 
No wonder these storms won’t occlude and die off, getting a constant breeze out of the East/SE, which is helping out these mesos from completely occluding, that’s one part tho
 
What is the NWS doing? Keep in mind I have the utmost respect for them. But damn, extend the damn watch east...

Given the longevity on these cells that would probably be the right call. Even if it is a short lived watch. Nobody at home is paying attention to mesoscale discussions.
 
I may be wrong but the last cell appears to be moving more so East. Also, will the Charlotte area see anymore storms after these leave?
 
Must be nice its a canadian fueled ne deep snowpack 56 and dropping. Must be nice to he far enough west to escape the clutches of boring ne winds .

Stay safe, wont deny wish it was me . There is always next year
 
Rotation in the one near Charlotte seems to have weakened and the one near Spartanburg is looking more like straight line winds if I’m not mistaken.
 
I have had a friend confirm that the Botany Woods subdivision in Greenville County took a possible hit. Lots of downed trees and impassable roads. This area is about five minutes away from the Haywood Rd/I-385 interchange.

Morehead city evening write up

Latest 00Z hi res CAM runs hold onto a line of convection firing
overnight, beginning shortly after 06Z. MLCAPE values across a
variety of hi res models maintain a range of 1500-2500 J/kg with
ample with mid- level lapse rates up to 7 C/km. With low LCL
heights, up to 40 kt of 0-1km shear, 60+ kt of 0-6 km shear, and
consistently curved hodographs, tornadoes continue to be a
concern overnight. The 00Z HRRR shows SC values above 10 and STP
values nearing 5 for much of the southern CWA. It is notable
the 00Z HRRR also showed a decent line of discrete cells
covering our southern coast and infiltrating as far inland as
the coastal plains, essentially covering the entire CWA. While
the greatest severe potential remains along the southern coast,
it is worth emphasizing the entire CWA has a conditionally
sufficient atmosphere conducive for severe weather.

To reemphasize, this threat is highly conditional on a
sufficient lifting mechanism being present and drier air aloft
not depriving the environment of necessary moisture. If storms
do fire, the highest threat window is between 06-12z overnight.
