Areas affected...portions of the southern Florida Peninsula

Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely 

Valid 041737Z - 042000Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

SUMMARY...An isolated severe threat may accompany the stronger,
longer lasting storms, with strong wind gusts and hail being the
main threats. Given the isolated nature of the severe threat, a WW
issuance is not expected.

DISCUSSION...Multiple multicellular clusters/possible transient
supercells have developed across the southern FL Peninsula amid a
destabilizing airmass. Surface temperatures are well into the 80s F,
with surface dewpoints exceeding 70 F, contributing to over 1500
J/kg MLCAPE given 7+ C/km low-level lapse rates. A 60+ kt 300 mb
wind maximum is approaching the southern FL Peninsula, which will
contribute to elongated mid/upper-level hodographs. The resulting
deep-layer speed shear (perhaps exceeding 40 kts) should support the
production of both hail and strong wind gusts in the longer lived,
more organized storms, especially if a sustained supercell can
materialize. A tornado also cannot be completely ruled out with any
storms interacting with outflow or sea-breeze boundaries. Overall
though, the severe threat should remain isolated, so a WW issuance
is not anticipated.
