NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
1234 PM CDT SAT MAY 23 2026
AREAS AFFECTED...GEORGIA INTO CENTRAL SOUTH CAROLINA
CONCERNING...SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH UNLIKELY
VALID 231734Z - 231930Z
PROBABILITY OF WATCH ISSUANCE...20 PERCENT
SUMMARY...ISOLATED WIND DAMAGE IS POSSIBLE AS SCATTERED CONVECTION
DEVELOPS THIS AFTERNOON. POTENTIAL FOR A MORE ORGANIZED SEVERE
THREAT CONTINUES TO APPEAR LOW AND A WATCH IS NOT CURRENTLY
ANTICIPATED.
DISCUSSION...DESPITE WEAK FORCING, SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ARE
LIKELY WITHIN A A VERY MOIST (LOW/MID 70S F DEWPOINTS) AND WEAKLY
CAPPED AIRMASS. MID-LEVEL LAPSE RATES ARE RELATIVELY POOR (6 C/KM
PER 12Z FFC SOUNDING), BUT AROUND 1.75 IN. PWAT VALUES AND POCKETS
OF STEEPER LOW-LEVEL LAPSE RATES WILL PROMOTE POTENTIAL FOR ISOLATED
WATER-LOADED DOWNBURSTS AND ASSOCIATED WIND DAMAGE. STORM
ORGANIZATION IS NOT EXPECTED TO BE SUBSTANTIAL AND ANY GREATER
POTENTIAL FOR WIND DAMAGE WOULD BE TIED TO LOCALIZED CLUSTERING OF
STORM CELLS.
