This threat is expected to remain too limited to warrant watch issuance. DISCUSSION...Lightning data and MRMS echo top trends suggest that more persistent convection is becoming established within a subtle low-level confluence zone across southern GA. This is after several attempts at convective initiation earlier in the afternoon. Cloud-top cooling noted in GOES IR imagery suggests this activity will have longer longevity that previous attempts. Surface temperatures/dewpoints in the 80s and mid 60s coupled with modest lapse rates aloft is supporting MLCAPE on the order of 1500-2000 J/kg. However, VWP observations from KVAX show modest deep-layer shear (roughly around 25-30 knots of 0-6 km BWD). While marginal, this may support a few more organized cells capable of posing a severe hail and damaging wind risk over the next few hours prior to the onset of diurnal cooling. Given the weak forcing for ascent and modest kinematic environment, storm coverage and intensity will likely remain sufficiently limited to preclude watch issuance. ...Moore/Grams.. 04/28/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!4KAfwGt2jNLRQgz5ccWR5B22U0xtIW2rrkxX7ESfXtqRYoDqLU5glm_AUcUG9BwgxrxSFjFHu= a2PHiBNOxa21M6ABV0$ for graphic product...
