Valid 082311Z - 090015Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 239, 240, 242 continues. SUMMARY...Several clusters of strong to severe thunderstorms will continue to affect the region through the early evening, before diurnal cooling weakens storms. Large hail and locally damaging wind gusts are the primary concern. DISCUSSION...Recent regional radar imagery continues to show clusters of thunderstorms from middle TN and northern AL into southern WV. Another broken line of storms extends from south-central VA into upstate SC. Several of these storms continue to show loosely-organized rotating updrafts capable of hail and gusty winds. Activity will likely begin to diminish in intensity during the next 1-2 hours as diurnal cooling occurs and instability weakens.=20=20 One area that may see continued convective development will be across southern NC into parts of northern SC - in vicinity of a weak mid-level shortwave trough seen in water vapor imagery. CAPE values of 1500+ J/kg and sufficient westerly flow aloft may maintain a risk of severe storms for a few more hours. ...Hart.. 05/08/2025 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!-7Y82jUV8Avr8KxW_-y5qFZMXSMI6JOWcx3QpjpJms37rMC24fjxSXHWKflK205vdMv1rBpMH= W3HAfBy08UXj67ZJDQ$ for graphic product...
