AREAS AFFECTED...SRN SC...SE GA

CONCERNING...SEVERE THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL 

VALID 131801Z - 131930Z

AN ISOLATED TORNADO THREAT MAY CONTINUE TO INCREASE ACROSS SRN SC
AND ERN GA OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS. A TORNADO WATCH IS BEING
CONSIDERED FOR THE COASTAL AREAS OF ERN GA AND SRN SC FOR THIS
AFTERNOON.

THE CENTER OF TROPICAL STORM ALBERTO IS CURRENTLY LOCATED JUST EAST
OF TALLAHASSEE FLORIDA WITH SEVERAL BANDS OF CONVECTION WRAPPING 
AROUND THE NORTHEAST QUADRANT OF THE SYSTEM. THE CENTER OF A 50 KT
LOW-LEVEL JET EXISTS JUST OFF THE COAST OF GA AND THIS FEATURE IS
CREATING STRONG LOW-LEVEL SHEAR PROFILES ACROSS THE REGION. THE
STRONG SHEAR WILL BE FAVORABLE FOR A TORNADO THREAT WITH DISCRETE
CELLS THAT MOVE ONSHORE THIS AFTERNOON. SEVERAL ROTATING STORMS ARE
CURRENTLY LOCATED ABOUT 50-75 MILES OFFSHORE FROM SAVANNA GA. AS
THIS CONVECTION APPROACHES THE COAST LATE THIS AFTERNOON...THE
TORNADO THREAT MAY INCREASE.
