    Areas affected...portions of eastern North Carolina

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

    Valid 102137Z - 102300Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

    SUMMARY...Isolated severe storms, including a few supercells, are
    possible this evening. Damaging gusts, isolated hail and a couple of
    tornadoes are possible with the strongest storms. A weather watch is
    possible, but uncertain.

    DISCUSSION...As of 2130 UTC, regional radar and satellite analysis
    showed renewed convective development ongoing across parts of
    southeastern and eastern North Carolina. Located ahead of a weak
    cold front/ wind shift, incipient storms are expected to continue to
    intensify through this evening. Very moist surface conditions (
    dewpoints in the mid to upper 70s F) were supporting 2000-2500 J/kg
    of MLCAPE despite modest mid-level lapse rates. Area VADs show
    enhanced mid-level flow around 50 kt was aiding in sufficient
    deep-layer shear for supercells and or short bowing segments, with a
    risk for damaging wind gusts and isolated hail. While low-level
    winds are slightly veered, 0-1 km SRH of 100-200 m2/s2 may support a
    few stronger low-level mesocyclones and a risk for a couple of
    tornadoes this evening. Storm coverage remains the primary
    uncertainty in the wake of previous convection. Confidence in a more
    sustained severe risk is greatest farther south where the air mass
    has better recovered. However, conditions are being monitored for a
    possible weather watch over much of eastern North Carolina this
    evening.
