    Areas affected...northern FLORIDA Peninsula...southeastern
    Georgia...eastern South Carolina...far southern North Carolina

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20

    Valid 272022Z - 272215Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...Thunderstorm coverage will increase this afternoon with
    potential for instances of severe hail and wind.

    DISCUSSION...Thunderstorm development has begun in eastern Georgia
    near a surface boundary that extends from the Carolinas southward
    into the eastern Florida Panhandle. CAMs continue to suggest this=20 thunderstorm activity will increase into the afternoon, with
    scattered thunderstorms expected across much of the region.
    Afternoon heating has been slow, given mid-to upper level cloud
    cover and slow eroding of stable air behind morning convection.
    Surface objective analysis indicates MLCIN has weakened with around
    500 J/kg MLCAPE across South Carolina into Georgia ahead of the
    boundary. This trend is further confirmed by thunderstorm
    development on radar.

    Currently, deep layer shear is strongest across the northern Florida
    Peninsula into southern Georgia. As the front shifts eastward this
    afternoon, stronger mid-level flow will spread northward, with deep
    layer shear increasing to the north as a result. This will support
    potential for a few more robust thunderstorms with potential for
    damaging winds and large hail. Given the slow air mass recovery and
    potential for messy storm mode with multi-cell clusters, a watch is
    unlikely to be needed this afternoon.
