   NATURE OF THE THREAT WW NOT EXPECTED.

   DISCUSSION...ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS HAVE DEVELOPED ACROSS THE
   DISCUSSION AREA ALONG HIGHER ELEVATIONS OF THE SOUTHERN APPALACHIANS
   AND ALSO ALONG AND IMMEDIATELY SOUTH OF A STALLED FRONTAL BOUNDARY
   ACROSS CENTRAL NC.  STORMS ARE FORMING IN AN ENVIRONMENT
   CHARACTERIZED BY AMPLE INSTABILITY /MUCAPE IN EXCESS OF 1000-1500
   J/KG/ BUT VERY WEAK DEEP LAYER SHEAR AOB 20 KNOTS.  THE WEAK SHEAR
   SHOULD LIMIT ANY ORGANIZATION TO JUST BRIEF DOWNBURSTS THAT MAY
   APPROACH SEVERE LIMITS ON A VERY ISOLATED BASIS.  STORMS SHOULD ALSO
   WEAKEN AFTER SUNSET DUE TO LOSS OF DAYTIME HEATING.  ANY HAIL OR
   WIND DAMAGE IS EXPECTED TO BE VERY ISOLATED/SPORADIC IN
   NATURE...THUS PRECLUDING WW ISSUANCE FOR THIS AREA.
