Charleston is still listed as having an elevated risk of tornadoes and damaging winds. In the latest <a href="http://mesonet.agron.iastate.edu/p.php?pid=200912021727-KCHS-FLUS42-HWOCHS" rel="nofollow">Hazardous Weather Outlook</a>, NWS Charleston called this afternoon's severe weather threat a "potentially dangerous situation" -- something NWS does not say lightly. Here's hoping for the best, but it does look like the ingredients are going to come together for a very rough late afternoon and evening. Some clearing was observed in Georgia -- let's just hope that doesn't happen here. Not much has changed with the new Day 1 Outlook.
