DISCUSSION...Isolated thunderstorms are developing this afternoon in a weak to moderately unstable airmass ahead of a surface cold front. Poor midlevel lapse rates and modest boundary-layer moisture are limiting stronger destabilization. Deep-layer westerly flow also remains rather lackluster. However, a narrow corridor of effective shear values near 25-30 kt is evident across northern coastal portions of SC to adjacent coastal NC. Coupled with very steep low-level lapse rates, this may be sufficient for a few cells with transient organization. Strong downbursts may accompany this activity into early evening as convection shifts east toward, and eventually offshore from, the coast. Relatively cool temperatures aloft (around -11 C at 500 mb per 12z CHS RAOB) may support small hail with any more intense updrafts. However, given modest instability, poor midlevel lapse rates, and marginal vertical shear, longevity of intense cores may be limited. A severe thunderstorm watch is not expected at this time. ...Leitman/Grams.. 06/07/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!9WbkUOkpcpbwtGtzETdZe_e3gxFXE5cEX_ZBscO0eYICYOHyw1PVp4DMMCd7Qsu2rtsZSBVgb= xJyZuQAwP-5AARZzF8$ for graphic product...
