   Mesoscale Discussion 1828
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   0516 PM CDT Wed Aug 21 2019

   Areas affected...central North Carolina

   Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely 

   Valid 212216Z - 220015Z

   Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent

   SUMMARY...Storms may produce a few instances of strong but mostly
   sub-severe wind gusts as they move through central North Carolina
   next couple of hours.

   DISCUSSION...Storms that developed over the mountains of western NC
   earlier this afternoon have consolidated into a squall line as they
   approach central NC. The downstream atmosphere is weakly capped and
   moderately unstable with temperatures around 90F supporting 2000
   J/kg MCLAPE. Multicell storms are expected to continue through
   central NC next couple hours and might eventually interact with the
   seabreeze which could support brief intensification, before
   subsequently diminishing as they continue into eastern NC. Isolated
   strong wind gusts should remain the primary threat next couple
   hours.
