Carolinas A large upper trough is present today over the eastern states, with a weak cold front sagging southward across the Carolinas. Ample low-level moisture is present to the south of the front from central SC into southeast NC, with dewpoints in the mid 60s. Pockets of daytime heating will destabilize this region, with the potential for isolated thunderstorm development by early afternoon. Low-level winds are veered and relatively weak, limiting frontal convergence and shear. A few strong storms may occur with locally gusty winds and hail. But the overall threat appears marginal. Eastern FL Warm/moist conditions are expected today over the FL Peninsula with temperatures over the interior warming into the 90s. Deep westerly flow will focus convergence along the east-coast sea-breeze, leading to scattered afternoon thunderstorms. Sufficient deep-layer vertical shear may result in isolated strong-severe storms producing gusty/damaging winds and hail. Coastal LA/MS/AL A convectively-aided shortwave trough over east TX will continue to track eastward across the central Gulf Coast region today. The combination of daytime heating and dewpoints in the mid-upper 60s will yield moderate CAPE values, leading to relatively widespread afternoon thunderstorms from southeast LA into southern MS/AL. Low-level winds are weak and lapse rates are rather weak. Nevertheless, cooler temperatures aloft and degree of instability will support a risk of occasionally intense cells capable of damaging winds and hail.
