The atmosphere has struggled to develop significant instability due to the showers and storms that impacted portions of our area this morning. As such, the severe weather threat is waning. Still can't rule out a stray severe storm this PM, but nothing at all like yesterday.

Heads Up: Another round of thunderstorms AFTER this morning's storms are likely to occur this afternoon IF the environment recovers from the early convection. One more day and then the weather calms down for a while. Stay weather aware! #scwx #ncwx #gawx

Severe Thunderstorm Warning continues for Pickens SC and Salem SC until 7:15 AM EDT
