Continue reading for today's outlook from the National Weather Service's Storm Prediction Center. -------------------- National Severe Storm Outlook THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PORTIONS OF THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY...THE FLORIDA ATLANTIC COAST...AND THE CAROLINA COAST SUMMARY Isolated severe storms with locally damaging wind gusts and hail are possible this afternoon along the Carolina and Florida Atlantic coasts as well as portions of the lower Mississippi Valley. 20z Update The previous outlook largely remains on track with only minor adjustments made. Risk probabilities were removed across eastern GA where latest satellite imagery shows limited vertical development within a broad cumulus field, likely owing to poor ascent given very weak low-level convergence along a diffuse frontal zone. Latest HRRR/RRFS guidance depicts negligible convective signals across this region through tonight, suggesting the potential for severe thunderstorms is low. Severe wind probabilities were similarly trimmed across portions of southern LA where cold outflow associated with a residual MCV over the northern Gulf is spreading northward. Ahead of this boundary, temperatures warming into the low 80s within a moist air mass may still support convection sufficiently deep for a localized downburst concern (see MCD #706). Elsewhere, the previous forecast (below) remains on track.
