This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for northeast Georgia, piedmont
North Carolina, western North Carolina and upstate South Carolina.
.DAY ONE...Today and tonight.
Isolated to scattered thunderstorms are expected to develop across
the area today, especially this afternoon and evening. Isolated
severe storms are expected during this time, with the main threats
being from large hail and brief damaging wind gusts. A couple of the
storms could produce hail larger than golf balls. An isolated tornado
or two cannot be ruled out.
A complex of strong to severe storms is then expected to move across
the area overnight into early Thursday. This system will pose a
threat for more widespread strong to damaging wind gusts and perhaps
a brief tornado. Areas that receive multiple rounds of storms will
see a threat for excessive rainfall and flash flooding, especially
tonight.
