   Areas affected...Parts of coastal SC/NC

   Concerning...Tornado Watch 603...

   Valid 061257Z - 061430Z

   The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 603 continues.

   SUMMARY...Some tornado threat will persist through the morning.

   DISCUSSION...Early visible satellite imagery depicts widespread
   cloudiness across coastal SC/NC, which will tend to inhibit
   destabilization through the morning. However, dewpoints in the
   mid/upper 70s F across near-coastal areas will continue to support
   MLCAPE of around 500 J/kg (as noted on the 12Z MHX sounding). This
   will be sufficient for maintenance of at least transient small
   supercell structures, given the presence of 0-1 km SRH of 150-250
   m2/s2 in the northeast quadrant of Tropical Storm Debby. 

   The stronger wind field will gradually spread northeastward through
   the day, and some tornado threat may eventually spread out of WW 603
   into a larger part of eastern NC, where somewhat stronger heating
   may occur through the morning. Eventual watch issuance north of WW
   603 is possible if observational trends warrant.
