Valid 160843Z - 161015Z The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 50 continues. SUMMARY...Threat for occasional wind damage and a couple of tornadoes will persist through the morning. DISCUSSION...A forced, pre-frontal convective band is moving from central toward east central GA, with the band largely oriented parallel to the deep-layer flow/shear vectors. The QLCS in central GA is moving along the edge of the near-surface destabilization, and close to the 70 kt low-level jet core. Despite the weak near-surface buoyancy, occasional damaging gusts and a tornado or two could occur with embedded circulations, especially more north-south oriented segments. Stronger buoyancy is located farther to the southwest, where 68-70 F dewpoints have spread inland to extreme southwest GA and the eastern FL Panhandle. The more cellular storm mode in this area suggests some potential for occasional supercell structures, though low-level shear will slowly weaken through the morning as the low-level jet develops northeastward toward SC. ...Thompson.. 03/16/2025 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!7LrhU_dNP1LHPOy4vwDAzLnga3e-IVoVvGMPy0gQMnBO4UCTCOhID22RPOQ-tH2B7C2OcrGLv= Vhz90CQw0dH3VbpN48$ for graphic product...
