MIXED MORNING STRATUS HAS SET UP AN AREA OF DIFFERENTIAL HEATING ACROSS THE MIDLANDS/PIEDMONT THIS AFTERNOON...SPAWNING LINE OF TS. LATEST LAPS CAPES AND CIN INDICATES THAT THE MOST UNSTABLE AIR REMAINS ACROSS THE EASTERN PIEDMONT WITH RESPECTABLE AMOUNTS ACROSS THE FOOTHILLS AND MTNS. SATELLITE AND VIEW OUT THE WINDOW CONFIRM THAT CU HAS NOT YET FORMED OVER THE UPPER SAVANNAH VALLEY AND UPSTATE. HOWEVER...RADAR DOES DETECT A FEW OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES ADVANCING FROM THE MIDLANDS TOWARD THE CWA. EXPECT THAT IT IS JUST A MATTER OF TIME UNTIL DEEP CONVECTION SPREADS INTO THE PIEDMONT AND DEVELOPS OVER THE MTNS/FOOTHILLS. STORM MOTIONS THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT SHOULD REMAIN VERY SLOW LEADING TO MOST STORMS LIVING THEIR LIFE CYCLES CLOSE TO WHERE IT BEGAN.

IT DOES RETROGRADE A LITTLE BY MONDAY OR TUESDAY. DEEP MOIST SLY FLOW REMAINS OVER MOST OF THE CWFA UNTIL THAT TIME. CONSENSUS IS TO DOWNPLAY GFS GULF TROPICAL SYSTEM FOR EARLY IN THE PERIOD. STILL EXPECTING MAINLY DIURNAL CONVECTION EACH DAY...WITH CHANCES SLIGHTLY HIGHER OVER THE MOUNTAINS CLOSER TO THE DEEPER MOISTURE. POP SLIGHTLY LOWER...BUT STILL IN CHC RANGE MON AND TUE. GIVEN THE RIDGING AND DIURNAL NATURE OF THE CONVECTION...THINK OPERATIONAL MEX TEMPS...ESP MAXES...TOO LOW...ESPECIALLY EARLY IN THE PERIOD.
