A thread on the ongoing threat of severe weather affecting most parts of the region from MS to the Carolinas. https://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/outlook/day1otlk_2000_prt.html https://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/outlook/day2otlk_1730_prt.html We ought to watch this the threats including damaging winds and tornadoes because it affects MS and AL today through overnight hours. It could affect GA, SC, and NC tomorrow.

These storms are firing up on DFW, so the wind shear and helicity is very much there to the point that hook echoes are forming that fast west. Look at the cell with the initital hook above Mesquite. Courtesy of KXAS-TV NBC 5 S-Band Radar.

I agree. I'm originally from Birmingham and tries to post provide severe weather updates on the Southeast board. However, unless it pertaining to the Triangle (Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill) Fayetteville, or Eastern NC most posters on that board doesn't care. They tend to even ignore weather in Metro Atlanta in GA and Charlotte. If it's not snow, tropical storms, or hurricanes then they don't seem to care. I would say move everything from that not in the Triangle or Eastern portions of NC should be moved to a bigger Southeast board with AL, GA, MS, and the Tennessee Valley board all together.

Nocturnal tornadoes as tornadic risk increasing prevalent after dark... this is not good at all.

I feel like many have been underestimating the levels of MLCAPE values, low level shear, and helocity in the environment south of that stationary front. It's going to be a disturbing evening across those areas with the moderate & enhanced/hatched risk.

The one that was over west central Georgia was confirmed by the damage across Troup County, Georgia PHOTOS: Tornado destroys multiple homes in Troup County: https://www.wsbtv.com/news/photos-tornado/K5NJ2HFEK5FZTFHQNTBQ7HTU5U

North Georgia is now under the gun for quick QLCS spin ups within the line.

I don't know about all that being accurate. Nashville is smack dab in the center of the 10% significant hatched in areas that came out in the past hour from the SPC. Louisville and Bowling Green are there too. The wind shear profiles and helocity values are going up right now and the storm bands are still at least an hour west of Greater Nashville. The lines are starting to break up into individual storms that are becoming more discrete.

There's already a thread on it: https://www.americanwx.com/bb/topic/58949-march-3-severe-potential/

We ought to monitor the severe weather threat on 03/03/2023. The amount of bulk shear is there for Central Alabama (i.e., Greater Birmingham), North Georgia (i.e., Metro Atlanta). the Upstate (Greenville/Spartanburg/Anderson) and Midlands of South Carolina (Columbia), and Western North Carolina and Metro Charlotte to deal with damaging winds and a QLCS tornadic threat. I don't think this will make it to the Triangle, but the timing is key with the daytime heating. Also if there are any breaks in the cloud cover allowing more localized instability. The preliminary timing of the severe threat will be the midday and afternoon hours of Friday for said areas.
