   STRONG OUTFLOW FROM INLAND CONVECTION ACROSS SERN NC AND NERN SC WAS
   CURRENTLY MERGING WITH WEAK SEA BREEZE-INDUCED CONVECTION FROM CAPE
   FEAR AREA WWD TO HORRY COUNTY SC. A FEW OF THESE CELLS STILL SHOW
   SUPERCELLULAR CHARACTERISTICS INDICATING A SHORT-TERM
   HAIL/WIND...ISOLD/BRIEF TORNADO THREAT BEFORE OVERALL AIRMASS
   BECOMES INCREASINGLY STABILIZED BY DEEP OVERTURNING.
   
   ATTENTION THEN SHIFTS INTO ERN SC WHERE STRONG LOW LEVEL CONVERGENCE
   AND INSTABILITY...BUT SLIGHTLY WEAKER SHEAR...SHOULD RESULT IN AN
   EXPANDING AREA OF MULTICELLULAR STORMS POSING MOSTLY A DAMAGING WIND
   THREAT FOR THE REST OF THE AFTERNOON.
