   The NWS Storm Prediction Center has issued a

   * Severe Thunderstorm Watch for portions of

   SUMMARY...Clusters of storms, including both left- and right-moving
   supercells, will likely persist for the next several hours with an
   attendant threat for large hail up to 2 inches in diameter.  The
   potential for damaging winds and a tornado or two will increase some
   later tonight, as storm clusters move eastward from Alabama into
   western Georgia.

   The severe thunderstorm watch area is approximately along and 45
   statute miles north and south of a line from 10 miles west northwest
   of La Grange GA to 55 miles east of Atlanta GA. For a complete
   depiction of the watch see the associated watch outline update

   tornadoes.
