There is a "line" or cluster of "lines" down over SC that could be trouble if they hold up, the timing would be right with them probably getting here by 7-9am....also thought this was interesting though I doubt its very accurate...this is predicted reflectivity and rotation, this is for 9-10am this morning though and seems a bit late.
Brings a tornadic cell right over central Pitt Co

As of 300 AM Thursday...Active weather expected this morning with continued Enhanced risk of severe thunderstorms most of area per latest SPC outlook. Initial severe threat will be mainly along coast 4 AM - 8 AM as current enhanced convective activity from ILM-CHS will spread N-NE coincident with increasing wind fields and elevated shear parameters. SPC HRR/RAP indicates SCP increasing to 10-15 and STP to 2-4 around 8 AM along coast, thus some concern for rotating cells. This activity progged to move off Outer Banks by 9 AM, then possibly more significant threat of severe storms will spread across from west through the morning as quasi-liner line of storms ahead of cold front expected to increase in coverage and intensity with heating. With 45-55 KT winds at 2-5K feet, any significant convective development will be capable of producing damaging wind gusts and veering low level wind profiles also support possible tornadic development.

That line that just rolled through Greenville a few mins ago was legit. Best non-warned storm I've ever experienced and saw 45-50mph gusts here and small limbs down too. Just to my north there was some small marble to penny hail I hear. Shook my car during the worst of it, felt like someone was jumping up and down on my bumper lol.
Nothing notable here in the medical district of Greenville. A breezy and occasionally windy day with early showers ... and that's it. Thunderstorms? Not here.
