A couple tornadoes possible Scattered damaging wind gusts to 70 mph possible Isolated large hail events to 1.5 inches in diameter possible SUMMARY...A small cluster of thunderstorms -- including a strong supercell that has intensified over southwestern Lower MI, should move east-southeastward along a baroclinic zone through the remainder of the morning. This environment will maintain enough vertical shear for tornado potential, as well as some potential increase in instability. Upscale growth into a damaging-wind- producing bow or cluster also is possible. The tornado watch area is approximately along and 30 statute miles north and south of a line from 15 miles southwest of Kalamazoo MI to 45 miles east of Toledo OH. For a complete depiction of the watch see the associated watch outline update (WOUS64 KWNS WOU4). PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Persons in these areas should be on the lookout for threatening weather conditions and listen for later statements and possible warnings. && OTHER WATCH INFORMATION...CONTINUE...WW 603... AVIATION...Tornadoes and a few severe thunderstorms with hail surface and aloft to 1.5 inches. Extreme turbulence and surface wind gusts to 60 knots. A few cumulonimbi with maximum tops to 500.

Instability will be greatest near the coast, supporting occasional supercells with a tornado threat. The tornado watch area is approximately along and 30 statute miles either side of a line from 25 miles west of Charleston SC to 70 miles northeast of Myrtle Beach SC. For a complete depiction of the watch see the associated watch outline update (WOUS64 KWNS WOU3). PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Stronger embedded mini supercells within the convective bands will yield an attendant tornado risk near the coast through much of the overnight and into the early morning. The tornado watch area is approximately along and 40 statute miles north and south of a line from 85 miles southwest of Charleston SC to 60 miles east northeast of Charleston SC. For a complete depiction of the watch see the associated watch outline update (WOUS64 KWNS WOU2). PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Why do tropical cyclones slow down or stall over the South?
Steering currents between the deep tropics and the mid-latitudes can become weak and variable around 30 degrees north latitude. Recent cyclones, such as Debby in 2024, Florence in 2018, Harvey in 2017, and Fay in 2008, all became stationary or stalled within a few hundred miles of the latitude.
