AREAS AFFECTED...PARTS OF SOUTHERN SOUTH CAROLINA AND ADJACENT
EASTERN GEORGIA
CONCERNING...TORNADO WATCH 679...
VALID 102248Z - 110045Z
THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT FOR TORNADO WATCH 679 CONTINUES.
SUMMARY...ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS ARE BECOMING LESS CONDUCIVE TO
THUNDERSTORMS CAPABLE OF PRODUCING TORNADOES. PARTS OF THE
REMAINING VALID PORTION OF TORNADO WATCH 679 COULD BE LOCALLY
EXTENDED AN HOUR OR SO IN TIME THIS EVENING, BUT A NEW TORNADO WATCH
IS NOT ANTICIPATED.
DISCUSSION...COOL SURFACE RIDGING IS MAINTAINING A CONSIDERABLE
INFLUENCE ACROSS MUCH OF THE SOUTHERN MID ATLANTIC, AS FAR SOUTH AND
WEST AS PORTIONS OF THE NORTHEASTERN SOUTH CAROLINA COASTAL PLAIN
INTO THE PIEDMONT, WHERE NEAR SURFACE LAPSE RATES REMAIN ISOTHERMAL
OR MORE STABLE. STRONGEST LOW-LEVEL SHEAR IS FOCUSED WITHIN THE
COOLER AIR, AND FORECAST TO BECOME INCREASINGLY MODEST WITHIN THE
MOIST SECTOR THROUGH THIS EVENING. COUPLED WITH AT LEAST SUBTLE
BOUNDARY-LAYER COOLING WITHIN THE MOIST SECTOR OVER THE NEXT COUPLE
OF HOURS, THE RISK FOR CONVECTION CAPABLE OF PRODUCING TORNADOES
SEEMS LIKELY TO DIMINISH BY OR NOT LONG AFTER 11/00Z, EVEN AS
UPSTREAM MID-LEVEL TROUGHING SLOWLY PIVOTS EAST-NORTHEAST OF THE
LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY.
