There is a substantial amount of energy associated with the system to create severe weather, including a risk for tornadoes.

Severe weather is possible from Florida's Big Bend through southern Georgia to the coast of South Carolina near Charleston. The risk areas have been issued by the Storm Prediction Center and are highlighting the potential for tornadoes, damaging wind, and hail.
