While a severe thunderstorm watch issuance is not anticipated, we'll be monitoring for greater severe-storm coverage/organization. DISCUSSION...Scattered thunderstorm development appears to be underway across north GA into far western SC, with more isolated development into western NC. The air mass across GA is moderately unstable with weaker buoyancy northeastward. Deep-layer shear is lacking though with decidedly veered and weak lower-level winds per FFC/GSP VWP data. This is expected to remain largely steady-state through the afternoon. Adequate mid-level westerlies should exist for some small to marginally severe hail cores. This would enhance microburst potential and attendant threat for localized wind damage. ...Grams/Hart.. 05/02/2025 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!7KLLDhp-Z8sYFOQGBfQg28pPqwcSW304Hoeh9ImOpFKXvb_MZ6bJWDEVotmoU6j89ynClprBs= 3s3kmkAHvLqQzgWZS4$ for graphic product...
