CAPES WILL BE INCREASING TO 1000 TO 1200 ALONG AND JUST AHEAD OF

THIS WILL BE SUFFICIENT FOR ISOLATED SEVERE STORMS TO
DEVELOP...MAINLY ALONG THE COLD FRONT AS IT MOVES ACROSS NORTH
GEORGIA THIS MORNING...AND INTO CENTRAL GEORGIA THIS AFTERNOON.
HELICITIES WILL ALSO BE SUFFICIENT FOR AN ISOLATED TORNADO TO
DEVELOP...HOWEVER THE MAIN THREAT WILL BE LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING
