It is uncertain whether a tornado watch is needed. DISCUSSION...Radar imagery this afternoon shows developing storms over central SC to the east and ahead of the center of Claudette. Additional storms exhibiting supercellular characteristics have been observed over northeast NC during the past 30 minutes. The airmass over the Carolina Piedmont/coastal plain has destabilized with temperatures in the mid 80s and dewpoints in the low to mid 70s. Based on 88D VAD data, the largest hodograph is observed from the Morehead City, NC VAD where some veering and strengthening of winds to 30-35 kt at 2km AGL was noted. Weaker flow was sampled by the Raleigh, NC and Columbia, SC VADs and their hodographs were much more limited in size. As it stands, it appears the highest conditional risk for a tornado is over parts of eastern NC during the afternoon due to the larger hodographs. ..Smith.. 06/20/2021 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
