NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
0106 PM CDT SAT JUN 27 2026
AREAS AFFECTED...SOUTHERN VIRGINIA AND NORTHERN NORTH CAROLINA
CONCERNING...SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH POSSIBLE
VALID 271806Z - 272000Z
PROBABILITY OF WATCH ISSUANCE...40 PERCENT
SUMMARY...A FEW DAMAGING GUSTS MAY OCCUR THIS AFTERNOON ACROSS
PORTIONS OF SOUTHERN VIRGINIA AND NORTHERN NORTH CAROLINA. A WATCH
MAY BE NEEDED.
DISCUSSION...A DEEP, MOIST AIR MASS IS IN PLACE ACROSS THE
SOUTHEASTERN CONUS SOUTH OF A RESIDUAL BOUNDARY, AND CONVECTIVE
TEMPERATURES HAVE BEEN REACHED ACROSS PORTIONS OF SOUTHERN VIRGINIA
AND NORTHERN NORTH CAROLINA, RESULTING IN SCATTERED THUNDERSTORM
DEVELOPMENT. THE FLOW ALOFT IN THE VICINITY OF THE STORMS IS
RELATIVELY MODEST WITH GENERALLY BETTER FLOW FARTHER NORTH. THIS
RESULTS IN RELATIVELY WEAK SHEAR ACROSS MUCH OF THE AREA, THOUGH
SUFFICIENT FOR MULTICELL CLUSTERS. THE VERY MOIST AIR MASS IN PLACE
(PRECIPITABLE WATER NEAR OR ABOVE 2 INCHES) MAY RESULT IN
WATER-LOADED DOWNDRAFTS, LEADING TO A FEW DAMAGING GUSTS. AS THE
AFTERNOON PROGRESSES, STORMS WILL LIKELY CLUSTER TOGETHER,
INCREASING THE POTENTIAL FOR DAMAGING GUSTS. A WATCH MAY BE NEEDED
THIS AFTERNOON.
