Mesoscale Discussion 1867 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0212 PM CDT Thu Aug 08 2024 Areas affected...eastern North Carolina into southeastern Virginia Concerning...Tornado Watch 614... Valid 081912Z - 082115Z The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 614 continues. SUMMARY...Brief tornado risk continues across portions of Tornado Watch 614. DISCUSSION...Recent radar loop shows little movement of the center of Tropical Storm Debby (still in the vicinity of the North Carolina/South Carolina border southeast of Charlotte, NC), while individual cells in convective bands within the northeastern quadrant of the storm having become a bit stronger in general over the past couple of hours. This intensification is likely related to modest heating through some cloud breaks, that has allowed weak destabilization/small increases in mixed-layer CAPE to occur. In tandem with this cellular increase, and given the favorable background low-level flow field, an uptick in coverage of storms exhibiting low-level rotation has been observed overall. The most active area in terms of low-level circulations has been in the vicinity of the northeastern North Carolina/southeastern Virginia border region, where rotating cells continue moving northwestward, along with occasional radar hints of potential/brief tornadoes. Overall, expect the situation to remain generally steady-state, with continued risk for brief tornadoes likely to persist over the next several hours. ..Goss.. 08/08/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
