Valid 290445Z - 290615Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 531 continues. SUMMARY...A localized wind-damage threat may continue through the early overnight hours, though a general weakening trend is expected with time. DISCUSSION...An outflow-driven storm cluster is propagating southward across north GA as of 0445 UTC. Moist low-level west-northwesterly flow impinging upon the gust front will help to sustain convection through the early overnight hours, though increasing MLCINH with time and southward extent should eventually result in a weakening trend. Observed gusts have generally been sub-severe thus far, though downbursts associated with the strongest embedded cores may remain capable of producing localized wind damage, until a more definitive weakening trend occurs. ..Dean.. 07/29/2026 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
