    Areas affected...Northeast SC...eastern NC

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20

    Valid 050016Z - 050145Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent

    SUMMARY...Isolated strong to severe storms may continue through the
    evening.

    DISCUSSION...Isolated strong storms have developed near a weakly
    confluent surface front across parts of the eastern Carolinas this
    evening. Earlier modest heating of a moist environment has resulted
    in MLCAPE of near/above 1000 J/kg, while moderate southwesterly flow
    along the periphery of the OH/TN Valley midlevel cyclone is
    providing sufficient deep-layer shear for storm organization.=20

    With rather prominent midlevel dryness noted in WV imagery and
    generally limited large-scale ascent, coverage and intensity of
    storms this evening may generally be relatively limited. However, a
    couple of left-moving cells have been able to move northward and
    remain within the confluence zone, resulting in locally greater
    storm intensity and longevity. Hail and locally gusty winds could
    accompany the strongest storms through the evening, before cooling
    and stabilization becomes more prominent later tonight.
