This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for portions of southwest North
Carolina...east Tennessee and southwest Virginia.

.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight

An outbreak of severe weather is increasingly likely across much
of the Mid-South, including into our area from late this afternoon
through tonight. All severe hazards are possible, including
widespread damaging winds, very large hail to golf ball size or
larger, and tornadoes, some of which could be strong. The tornado
threat is highest along and west of Interstate 75.

In addition to the severe hazards, heavy rainfall is likely, due
to many rounds of showers and storms. Scattered to possibly
numerous instances of flooding are likely with the greatest threat
along and west of Interstate 75. This threat will be most
amplified from the evening until early Thursday morning.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Thursday through Tuesday

No hazardous weather is expected at this time.

Afterwards, no hazardous weather is expected.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
