ACUS01 KWNS 080055 SWODY1 SPC AC 080053 Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0753 PM CDT Mon Apr 07 2025 Valid 080100Z - 081200Z ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PARTS OF EASTERN NORTH CAROLINA... ...SUMMARY... A couple of strong to severe storms capable of wind damage and perhaps a brief tornado are possible in parts of eastern North Carolina into mid-evening before activity moves offshore. ...Synopsis... A large upper-level trough continues eastward this evening and is supporting convection along a cold front near the southeastern Atlantic coastline. This front is nearly offshore in southeastern Georgia and much of coastal South Carolina. In eastern North Carolina, the front will reach the coast sometime in the 10 PM - 12 AM EDT. ...Eastern North Carolina... One more prominent linear segment is moving northeastward south of a warm front just south of the Virginia border. The observed 00Z sounding from Morehead showed poor mid-level lapse rates. Objective mesoanalysis suggests MLCAPE may be around 250-500 J/kg. Continued forcing from the approaching trough and strong effective shear (45-55 kts) will support a few more hours of wind damage and brief tornado potential this evening. ..Wendt.. 04/08/2025 $$
