DISCUSSION...A well-organized QLCS continues to push east across the southern Appalachians and has a history of producing damaging (50-60 mph) winds. GOES imagery shows that this line continues to produce robust embedded updrafts despite moving into a region with weaker deep-layer shear. This may be due to compensating effects from higher SBCAPE on the eastern side of the Appalachians. Given the buoyant air mass and steep low-level lapse rates downstream, the severe/damaging wind threat should continue. Watch issuance is likely within the next 30 minutes. ...Moore/Smith.. 05/26/2024 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!-VWyUDSSHJsL64eWb5wWOdpxOSiAPY4A8YtpO1rbt-MKhinSIjZARD7Q5zomHmNfzFptlQEvX= ziLMYB1eGooIawgVIk$ for graphic product...
