Areas affected...Northeast Georgia...South Carolina

Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible=20

Valid 161052Z - 161315Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

SUMMARY...Isolated severe gusts are expected this morning across
parts western and central South Carolina. Weather watch issuance
remains uncertain.

DISCUSSION...Mosaic radar imagery currently shows a squall line
across parts of central Georgia extending northeastward into far
western South Carolina. The line is being supported by strong
large-scale ascent associated with an approaching trough, and by
forcing along a fast-moving cold front. Ahead of the line,
instability is very weak, with surface dewpoints in the 50s F across
western South Carolina and northeast Georgia. The latest WSR-88D VWP
at Greenville/Spartanburg has about 85 knot of 0-6 km shear with 40
to 50 knots of south-southwesterly flow located just above the
surface. An isolated wind-damage threat will be possible with the
stronger cells within the line. Given the very strong low-level
shear, meso-scale vorticies will be possible in the line with
embedded cells that remain surface-based. However, forecast
soundings in far western South Carolina have a sharp near surface
temperature inversion, which should keep any severe threat isolated
and localized.
