0149 PM CDT Mon Aug 05 2024

Areas affected...c*astal and near coastal counties of Georgia and
South Carolina.

Concerning...Severe potential...Tornado Watch likely

Valid 051849Z - 052015Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...95 percent

SUMMARY...A new tornado watch will be needed later this afternoon in
coastal areas across eastern Georgia and eastern South Carolina.

DISCUSSION...Instability has mostly struggled to move inland within
the northeastern quadrant of Tropical Storm Debby where persistent
stratiform rain has been present all day. A push of higher moisture
content and greater instability is advancing toward the
Georgia/South Carolina coast. This may result in a greater threat
for cellular convection and stronger updrafts late this afternoon
and this evening. Any storms which can develop would pose a tornado
threat given the favorable wind shear sampled by the JAX VWP. In
addition, the low-level hodograph is starting to elongate at CLX,
with this increasing low-level shear expected to advance up the
coast this evening and into the overnight hours. With tornado watch
596 expiring at 20Z, a new tornado watch will be issued for portions
of coastal South Carolina and parts of Coastal Georgia.
