CONCERNING...SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 464...

VALID 131903Z - 132030Z

THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 464
CONTINUES.

THE WIND DAMAGE THREAT ACROSS NE AL...NRN GA...FAR SE TN AND FAR WRN
NC MAY INCREASE LATE THIS AFTERNOON AS A LINE-SEGMENT MOVES EWD
ACROSS THE REGION. THE THREAT MAY CONTINUE EWD INTO THE WRN PART OF
WW 465 AND SEWD INTO ERN GA WHERE NO WATCH IS IN EFFECT ATTM. A WW
COULD BE NEEDED SOUTHEAST OF WW 464 IF THE LINE TAKES A MORE SEWD
TURN BUT THE WATCH COULD ALSO BE EXTENDED AS WELL.

AN ORGANIZED SHORT LINE-SEGMENT IS ONGOING IN NE AL ALONG THE NRN
EDGE OF MODERATE INSTABILITY WITH OBJECTIVE ANALYSIS ESTIMATED
MLCAPE VALUES IN THE 1500 TO 2000 J/KG RANGE ACROSS NE AL. THIS
MODERATELY UNSTABLE AIRMASS EXTENDS EWD ACROSS NRN GA INTO FAR WRN
NC WHERE SCATTERED DISCRETE CELLS ARE ONGOING. THESE STORMS ARE
EXPECTED TO INCREASE IN COVERAGE AS DESTABILIZATION CONTINUES ACROSS
THE REGION LATE THIS AFTERNOON. THIS SHOULD ALSO HELP SUSTAIN THE
CONVECTIVE LINE EWD INTO THE ATLANTA METRO WHERE SFC TEMPS ARE NOW
IN THE LOWER 90S F AND LOW-LEVEL LAPSE RATES ARE STEEP. SHORT-TERM
MODEL FORECASTS GRADUALLY INTENSIFY THE LINE EWD ACROSS NCNTRL GA
AND WRN SC WHERE STRONGER INSTABILITY IS LOCATED. FOR THIS
REASON...THE WIND DAMAGE THREAT ASSOCIATED WITH THE CONVECTIVE LINE
MAY CONTINUE FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE AFTERNOON INTO THE EARLY
EVENING WITH AN INCREASING THREAT FOR DAMAGING WIND GUSTS.
