A watch is not expected. DISCUSSION...Strong diurnal heating amid rich boundary-layer moisture (lower/middle 70s surface dewpoints) is underway across parts of NC and northern SC along/east of the southern Appalachians. Continued destabilization should support an uptick in thunderstorm development during the next couple of hours -- possibly aided by a subtle midlevel impulse crossing the Appalachians. Regional VWP data indicates around 20-25 kt of midlevel flow across the region, which may gradually strengthen through the afternoon -- yielding around 25-35 kt of effective shear. This, combined with the increasingly unstable air mass, should support several loosely organized clusters capable of producing wind damage through the afternoon. The overall severe-risk is expected to remain too isolated/sporadic for a watch. ...Weinman/Bunting.. 07/14/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!_st5gXsljS2ujXDss6-lFECAd8bFBTA0goh03RD0uCPefSZFgiLIjh__5fBS9Vzbmhgxv5AnZ= 2gU1vGxCEVcemBPbLQ$ for graphic product...
