    Mesoscale Discussion 1277
    NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
    0118 PM CDT Sun Aug 12 2018

    Areas affected...Much of central Virginia into north-central North
    Carolina

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely

    Valid 121818Z - 122045Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...A few storms may produce marginally severe wind or hail,
    but the overall threat does not appear to warrant a watch.

    DISCUSSION...Convective trends have increased markedly over the past
    hour, with scattered strong storms extending from northern Virginia
    into northwest North Carolina. Daytime heating, as well as the
    influence of height falls aloft have contributed to the increase in
    storms. Winds in the low-level will remain weak, but mid to upper
    level winds are resulting in elongated, straight hodographs.
    Temperatures aloft are seasonably cool and supportive of vigorous
    updrafts given ample low-level moisture, and the wind profiles are
    supportive of both cells and small line segments. The slow movement
    of the storms coupled with current tendencies for cellular mode
    suggest only a localized wind threat, while the stronger cells may
    contain marginal hail cores. The overall trend should be for
    sporadic, disorganized convection, with isolated severe reports
    expected.
