I think other than the discrete cells, they are more worried at a possible damaging wind threat at most blowing through.  We may see some changes when the new Day-1 outlook comes out, but my guess is still wind.. although the hi-res NAM shows some pretty potent cells heading towards the Midlands, it quickly fizzles out as it heads East.  It's also looking to come after dark, we know how that generally works out for us.  But, Spring is a different beast.  We shall see!

The bolded are the reasons why  :lol:   Looks like the classic Carolina split so far, but at least it's something to watch   ^_^

Heavy squalls (2+") isolated tornados for NE Ga and upstate SC! Possible pollenaders.

Haven't gotten my sweet gums cut down yet and growing concern for the one that split!

 

I've got a monster Pecan limb sitting right over my house.. it's not very good.  Definitely need to cut that down asap.  I don't even wanna imagine a gum tree.  Some of those suckers are massive.

Lol only because 4/27.

Why is this funny? Anyway, no!  They did let schools out that day as well but Alabama has done a much better job with this than most surrounding states in the past 10 years or so. I think James Spann has done a remarkable job educating public officials over there about severe threats.

Tomorrow looks to be more like a damaging wind and large hail threat with a few tornadoes if any discrete cells manage to develop. They are acting as if strong tornadoes are in the forecast. Most of GA is in a 45% area also and no one is letting schools out early or cancelling them there. I guess they will let schools out early with every slight risk just as Wilkesboro, NC gets a 2 hour delay with every sleet pellet that hits the ground.

I love monster pecans. We had a tree when I was growing up. We all loved those 500lb pecan pies mom made.

NWS Greenville

The entire forecast area will be threatened...but the greatest potential for

severe weather will be east and S of the Blue Ridge. Numerous damaging

wind gusts would be the primary threat...but a few tornadoes would

be within the realm of possibilities mainly along and south of I-85.

Unless there is some significant change in the forecast guidance...it is

reasonable to expect severe weather watches for all or part of the

forecast area at some point late Thursday and early Friday.

Yeah, the squirrels and last years drought really ruined our batch off 3 or 4 ancient trees last year.  Hopefully this year works out better for us.

 

That image from WxBell, showing "most dangerous storms" etc.  I think they mean any storms developing in front of the line (discrete cells).

 

I've been looking at the last few runs of the 4KM models and they seem to be more ominous with the cell developement even here in SC.  If I see it even worse on 00z, I may just go ahead and make a trip to the beer store tomorrow morning in case something does happen.

  • Yesterday worried about TN to W Carolinas severe threat tomorrow. Really worried today. Potential serious #tornado threat. Up to VA/KY too.

Really? Hype city. It's not even that serious. Tomorrow will be a damaging wind and large hail threat mainly. He is acting like we are gonna see a tornado outbreak or something.

This has the storms here at 8pm...even sooner south-west. Looks like more than a squall line is possible.

Severe Weather Threat is increasing for tomorrow, start preparing now for possible watches then warnings tomorrow late afternoon and evening.

WxBell needs to do something with their color scale. It's really misleading. Anywho, the previous frames to this image has what looks like some discrete convection forming in upstate SC and SE GA then goes linear later on. Wind will probably be the largest threat in my opinion. Probably gonna be some good hailers too.

have you seen the NAM hodographs? some of them look pretty impressive from SC to NC. lots of low level shear, we could be surprised tomorrow evening.
