The first change is to remove the Moderate Risk area. Numerous storms have developed early this afternoon along and near the instability axis from the eastern Carolinas northward into the Mid-Atlantic. As a result, instability has remained weaker than was expected, and severe threat coverage should be a bit less than was previously forecast. The second change to the outlook is to remove severe threat probabilities and thunder to the west of the instability corridor from the Florida Panhandle northward into parts of the southern and central Appalachians.
