   Mesoscale Discussion 0491
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   1203 PM CDT Mon May 03 2021

   Areas affected...north central Georgia into northern and central
   South Carolina

   Concerning...Tornado Watch 127...

   Valid 031703Z - 031830Z

   The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 127 continues.

   SUMMARY...Threat for isolated tornadoes will persist another couple
   hours over north central Georgia. Severe threat is expected to
   develop eastward into northern and central South Carolina this
   afternoon where another WW will be needed soon.

   DISCUSSION...Storms continue developing along several east-west
   oriented boundaries across north central GA where the environment
   remains favorable for occasional supercells with low-level
   mesocyclones and isolated tornadoes. The atmosphere is destabilizing
   from the southwest across central and north central GA into central
   SC. Low-level hodographs will remain sufficient for supercells with
   isolated tornadoes as the low-level jet continues to shift northeast
   through northern GA and into western and central SC while the
   atmospheres destabilize from the south and west.
