   Areas affected...Southeastern Georgia into portions of North
   Carolina

   Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 486...

   Valid 122229Z - 122330Z

   The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 486
   continues.

   SUMMARY...The threat for WW 486 continues, with thunderstorms
   capable of damaging winds of 55-70 MPH. Additional thunderstorm
   development along merging outflows may need local watch extension.

   DISCUSSION...Additional thunderstorm development along merging
   outflows across portions of southern and eastern Georgia may become
   a short-term focus for thunderstorm development and damaging wind
   gusts. The additional convergence/ascent amidst modest buoyancy and
   high PWATs should produce additional thunderstorms with strong, wet
   downdrafts capable of 55-70 MPH winds. Local watch extension of WW
   486 southward may be needed to account for this additional
   development.
