0434 PM CDT Tue Jul 05 2022
Areas affected...portions of extreme eastern Tennessee...extreme
southern Virginia...western into central North Carolina...far
northern South Carolina
Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely
Valid 052134Z - 052330Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent
SUMMARY...A couple of damaging gusts may acco*pany the stronger
storm cores embedded within a southward moving squall line. The
overall severe wind threat is expected to remain isolated through
the remainder of the evening and a WW issuance is not expected.
DISCUSSION...A modestly organized MCS has materialized over the past
couple of hours across portions of the central Appalachians into the
Carolina Piedmont, where a couple of damaging gusts have recently
been reported. Deep-layer tropospheric flow/shear remain weak across
much of the eastern U.S., with squall line organization driven
predominantly by cold pool mergers in a moderately unstable
environment. 2000-2500 J/kg MLCAPE resides ahead of the MCS/squall
line, driven primarily by 8 C/km 0-3 km lapse rates. As such,
adequate evaporative cooling within the boundary layer should
support an isolated damaging gust threat through the remainder of
the afternoon with the stronger storm cores.
