~Severe Weather Bulletin~

There's a Marginal risk for strong to possibly severe thunderstorms for East TN today.

Primary risks:

Damaging winds up to 60 mph.
Large hail up to quarter size.

Timing:

Late afternoon into Early evening.
 
Current thoughts on this system:

The severe threat will be isolated. While there is a good bit of wind shear, the instability will be very weak due to the convection south of us. Most storms won't reach severe levels, but I can't rule out a couple warnings being issued.
