What was reported inside it
| Time | Report | Where | Remark |
|---|---|---|---|

TWO SPOTTERS WITHIN A MILE OR TWO OF THIS LOCATION HAD PEA TO MARBLE SIZED HAIL AND A GUST ESTIMATED 40 TO 45 MPH. |
Local storm reports filed while the alert was in force, from inside its polygon or its counties.
Did it verify
Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this severe thunderstorm warning while it was in force. That is not proof nothing happened: reports are thin where few people live.
Cow counts a report within 15 km of the polygon while the warning was in force: a tornado for a tornado warning; hail of 1 inch or more, a gust of 58 mph or more or wind damage for a severe thunderstorm warning; a flash flood report for a flash flood warning.
The nearest sounding before it
Greensboro/Hi Pt, NC (KGSO), launched 12:00Z, 11.2 hours before the alert went out and 71 km from the middle of its area. This is the routine balloon launch nearest before it, the air the forecaster had in hand, not a measurement taken for the alert.

Area forecast discussion, Sep 2, 4:43 PM EDT, 2 hours 29 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GREENVILLE-SPARTANBURG SC
443 PM EDT TUE SEP 2 2014
.SYNOPSIS...
A WEAK COLD FRONT WILL PUSH THROUGH THE REGION TONIGHT FOLLOWED BY
BERMUDA HIGH PRESSURE WEDNESDAY INTO FRIDAY. ANOTHER COLD FRONT WILL
SWEEP THROUGH THE REGION OVER THE WEEKEND PROVIDING AN ADDITIONAL
FOCUS FOR THUNDERSTORMS ON SATURDAY AND SUNDAY. BUILDING HIGH
PRESSURE WILL HIGHLIGHT THE WEATHER PATTERN FOR THE START OF THE
NEXT WORK WEEK LEADING TO COOLER TEMPERATURES AND MORE STABLE
WEATHER.
&&
.NEAR TERM /THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
AS OF 430 PM EDT...EARLY CONVECTION MOVING EAST OFF THE BLUE RIDGE
WILL SPAWN A ISOLD TO SCT TSTMS OUT OVER THE FOOTHILLS AND PIEDMONT
THROUGH EARLY EVENING...BUT THE MAIN CONCERN MAY FOCUS ON NEWLY
INVIGORATED CONVECTION FROM NASHVILLE TN TO JACKSON KY. THIS
ACTIVITY IS LINING UP AHEAD OF AN APPROACHING SHORTWAVE AND WEAK SFC
FRONTAL BOUNDARY SLIDING SE TOWARD THE SRN APPALCHIANS. THE
MESOSCALE MODELS SHOULD THIS LINE OF TSTMS WEAKENING DURING THE MID
TO LATE EVENING HOURS...BUT A SECONDARY SPIKE IN POP WILL BE NEEDED
FOR THE LATE EVENING AND EARLY OVERNIGHT...ESPECIALLY OVER THE
MTNS.
ON WEDNESDAY...THE MODELS AGREE WITH STALLING THE REMNANTS OF THE
WAVE OVER THE PIEDMONT TO OUR SOUTH AND EAST...YET STILL DEVELOP
CONVECTION IN THE AFTERNOON PERHAPS BECAUSE OF AMPLE MOISTURE AT LOW
LEVELS. THIS SEEMS LIKE A DECENT BET OVER THE MTNS AND ALONG THE
EASTERN BORDER CLOSE TO THE WAVE REMNANTS...BUT THERE IS UNCERTAINTY
IN BETWEEN THESE TWO AREAS. THE GUIDANCE PAINTS A SLIGHT CHANCE POP
ACROSS THE ENTIRE AREA WHILE THE ONGOING FCST HAS A CHANCE. WILL
KEEP THE CHANCE EVERYWHERE BASED ON THE LATEST SREF FOR THE TIME
BEING. TEMPS SHOULD BE A FEW DEGREES COOLER BASED ON INCREASED CLOUD
COVER.
&&
.SHORT TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
AS OF 230 PM TUESDAY...ON THURSDAY...MID LEVEL RIDGE WILL REMAIN
CENTERED ACROSS THE CAROLINAS AND WESTERN ATLANTIC. SHORT RANGE
MODELS INDICATE THAT MOISTURE WILL LIFT NORTH ACROSS THE REGION
DURING THE DAYLIGHT HOURS ON THURSDAY. MOISTURE IS LIKELY INCREASING
SOUTH OF WEAK WARM FRONT LIFTING NORTH ACROSS THE CAROLINAS.
FORECAST SOUNDINGS INDICATE THAT PW WILL INCREASE TO 1.75
INCHES...WITH CAPES AROUND 1500-2000 J/KG. THIS ENVIRONMENT SHOULD
PRIMARILY SUPPORT AIR MASS TSRA...FORMING OVER THE MTNS DURING THE
EARLY AFTERNOON...EXPANDING EAST THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE
AFTERNOON. PULSE SVR TSRA APPEAR POSSIBLE ACROSS THE CWA. ON
FRIDAY...CONDITIONS WILL CHANGE LITTLE FROM THURSDAY. FORECAST
SOUNDINGS INDICATE THE PW WILL INCREASE TO 1.8 INCHES WITH BROAD
LLVL SE FLOW. WEAK UPSLOPE FLOW WILL FAVOR THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS FOR
TSRA. BOTH DAYS...I WILL FORECAST 30 POPS ACROSS THE PIEDMONT TO
40-50 ACROSS THE MTNS. THURSDAY AND FRIDAY...HIGH TEMPERATURES ARE
FORECAST TO RANGE NEAR NORMAL.
&&
.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
AS OF 200 PM EDT TUESDAY...LATEST GLOBAL MODELS CONTINUE TO AGREE
THAT AN UPPER TROUGH WILL PROGRESS EASTWARD ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES
REGION SAT AND INTO THE EASTERN SEABOARD BY SUN. THIS WILL PUSH A
TRAILING COLD FRONT INTO THE SOUTHERN APPALACHIANS BY LATE SAT.
WITH INCREASING ATLANTIC MOISTURE ADVECTION IN SELY FLOW ALONG WITH
DIURNAL BUOYANCY...POPS RAMP UP INTO THE SOLID CHANCE RANGE OVER THE
PIEDMONT AND INTO THE LIKELY RANGE OVER THE NC MTNS SAT AFTERNOON.
THE FRONT WILL THEN CONSIDERABLY SLOWS DOWN ITS SEWARD PROGRESSION
AS IT REACHES THE TN/NC BORDER LINE. BOTH THE GFS AND THE ECMWF
INDICATE THAT THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL BECOME STATIONARY OVER THE
PIEDMONT BY EARLY SUN BEFORE IT EVENTUALLY PUSHES SOUTH OF THE AREA
BY MON. THIS WILL YIELD WIDESPREAD CONVECTION ONGOING SUNDAY INTO
EARLY MON AND THUS HAVE MENTIONED SOLID TO LIKELY POPS ACROSS MUCH
OF THE REGION DURING THIS PERIOD. GIVEN THE MOIST PROFILE (PW VALUES
NEAR 2")...GOOD LLVL CONVERGENCE AND MODERATE INSTABILITY...HEAVY
RAINFALL LOOKS TO BE THE MAIN CONCERN ATT. MON AND TUE...POPS RAMP
DOWN AS THE FRONT REMAINS SOUTH OF THE AREA AND A WEDGE OF SURFACE
HIGH BUILDS IN FROM THE NE. TEMPERATURES WILL STAY NEAR NORMAL
FRI/SAT BEFORE COOLING DOWN CONSIDERABLY BY MON.
&&
.AVIATION /21Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
AT KCLT...TRIGGERING ON OUTFLOWS ACROSS THE NC PIEDMONT LATE TODAY
MAY YET PUSH CONVECTION NEAR THE KCLT AIRFIELD THROUGH 00Z. ALTHOUGH
COVERAGE MAY NOT BE VERY ROBUST...THE TEMPO WILL BE CONTINUED ALONG
WITH THE GUSTY WIND POTENTIAL GIVEN HIGH DCAPE VALUES. THE BALANCE
OF THE OVERNIGHT SHOULD HAVE VFR CLOUDS AND CONVECTIVE DEBRIS WITH A
LIGHT WIND...PERHAPS CALM. IF A THUNDERSTORM MOVES OVER THE
AIRFIELD...THE CHANCE FOR FOG AROUND DAYBREAK WED WILL INCREASE
CONSIDERABLY. FOR NOW...IT WAS LEFT OUT OF THE TAF. LOW CONVECTIVE
CLOUDS SHOULD REDEVELOP WITH SOME BOUNDARY LAYER HEATING ON
WEDNESDAY MORNING. WIND SHOULD HAVE A NORTHERLY COMPONENT BECAUSE OF
A WEAK BOUNDARY MOVING THROUGH OVERNIGHT. ANY CHANCE FOR
SHOWERS/STORMS WAS LEFT OUT FOR THE TIME BEING...BUT IT SHOULD BE
AFTER 16Z.
ELSEWHERE...TEMPO TSRA HAVE BEEN TRIMMED OUT OF THE FOOTHILL TAFS
SINCE THE BEST TRIGGERING IS NOW FARTHER EAST ON EXISTING OUTFLOWS.
WILL RETAIN A VCTS OR VCSH MENTION THROUGHOUT THIS EVENING...WITH
CONTINUED LATE EVENING THUNDERSTORM CHANCES BEST AT KAVL AS A
WEAKENING LINE APPROACHES FROM THE NW. HAVE LIMITED THE FOG/STRATUS
TO IFR AFTER 07Z AT KAVL...BUT GIVEN THE PRECIP THAT HAS FALLEN
TODAY...RESTRICTIONS COULD BEGIN MUCH EARLIER AND COULD DROP DOWN
INTO THE LIFR/VLIFR RANGES. ANY OTHER SITE THAT HAS RAINFALL WILL
HAVE AN INCREASED CHANCE FOR FOG EARLY WEDNESDAY MORNING. LEFT OFF
PRECIP CHANCES AFTER SUNRISE WEDNESDAY FOR BREVITY.
OUTLOOK...GENERALLY VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED THROUGH THE REST OF
THE WEEK...BUT RESTRICTIONS ARE LIKELY EARLY EACH MORNING IN THE
MOUNTAIN VALLEYS DUE TO LOW CLOUDS AND FOG. DIURNALLY DRIVEN
SHRA/TSRA ARE EXPECTED EACH AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING...WITH THE
MOST COVERAGE OVER THE MOUNTAINS.
