Strong Thunderstorms, High Winds, Possible Tornadoes Likely tonight

If you live anywhere in the western Carolinas, nows the time to prepare for a high wind event and strong thunderstorms that will be arriving tonight. By midnight, the line will be approaching the Spartanburg to Shelby area, and this looks like a near-repeat of what happened in early April, at about the same time of night. High winds are being shown on all the models, with gusts over 50 MPH to be expected. If the strong line of thunderstorms really gets its act together, I won't be suprised to see 75MPH winds rake across the region late tonight and early Thursday morning, toppling trees and tossing a lot of debris around and causing major damage.
The tornado threat is real as well, with so much turning and extreme dynamics. Already this system has been producing high winds and many tornadoes and the event is about to get a "boost" as the final bit of energy comes right down toward Alabama and Tennessee in the next few hours. Its this line that will really explode over the state of Tennessee, much of northern Alabama and northern Georgia later this evening and rake across the western Carolinas toward midnight.

The Dangerous Weather Situation My readers learned about last week is now upon us. Multiple tornadoes likely some areas, and High Winds and strong Thunderstorms will rake the region.
