WW 86 TORNADO FL CW 031440Z - 032100Z URGENT - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED Tornado Watch Number 86 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1040 AM EDT Wed Apr 3 2024 The NWS Storm Prediction Center has issued a * Tornado Watch for portions of North and central Florida Coastal Waters * Effective this Wednesday morning and afternoon from 1040 AM until 500 PM EDT. * Primary threats include... A couple tornadoes possible Isolated damaging wind gusts to 70 mph possible SUMMARY...A pre-frontal band of thunderstorms will continue to develop slowly southeastward from north into central Florida through the afternoon. Embedded storms will be capable of producing damaging winds of 60-70 mph, while the potential for a couple of tornadoes will be greater with any isolated supercells that can form just ahead of the main line of storms. The tornado watch area is approximately along and 60 statute miles north and south of a line from 60 miles south southwest of Cross City FL to 25 miles east of St Augustine FL. For a complete depiction of the watch see the associated watch outline update (WOUS64 KWNS WOU6). PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS... REMEMBER...A Tornado Watch means conditions are favorable for tornadoes and severe thunderstorms in and close to the watch area. Persons in these areas should be on the lookout for threatening weather conditions and listen for later statements and possible warnings. && OTHER WATCH INFORMATION...CONTINUE...WW 85... AVIATION...Tornadoes and a few severe thunderstorms with hail surface and aloft to 0.5 inches. Extreme turbulence and surface wind gusts to 60 knots. A few cumulonimbi with maximum tops to 500.

MD 0367 CONCERNING TORNADO WATCH 85... FOR PORTIONS OF NORTH FL AND EXTREME SOUTHEAST GA Mesoscale Discussion 0367 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0905 AM CDT Wed Apr 03 2024 Areas affected...Portions of north FL and extreme southeast GA Concerning...Tornado Watch 85... Valid 031405Z - 031530Z The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 85 continues. SUMMARY...An isolated damaging wind and tornado threat may continue across parts of north FL. A local extension in area of Tornado Watch 85 is possible. Or, a new downstream Watch could be issued. DISCUSSION...A cluster/loosely organized line of convection is ongoing across north FL and far southeast GA this morning ahead of a cold front. While the 12Z sounding from JAX showed substantial capping/inhibition and visible satellite indicates some anvil shading, continued diurnal heating of the moist low-level airmass ahead of the line of thunderstorms should help gradually erode most of the remaining MLCIN. Weak instability will likely be sufficient to maintain convective structure and intensity given ample low-level and deep-layer shear present on recent VWPs from KJAX. With around 200-250 m2/s2 of 0-1 km SRH present, embedded updraft rotation within the line should continue to pose some threat for a few tornadoes through the rest of the morning and perhaps into the afternoon, as convection spreads east-southeastward across the north FL Peninsula. Occasional damaging winds will also remain a concern as low-level lapse rates gradually steepen. A local extension in area of Tornado Watch 85, or a new downstream Watch, will need to be considered for parts of north FL. ..Gleason.. 04/03/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

SPC 1300Z Day 1 Outlook Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0726 AM CDT Wed Apr 03 2024 Valid 031300Z - 041200Z ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PORTIONS OF NORTHERN AND CENTRAL FLORIDA INTO SOUTHEAST GEORGIA AND FAR SOUTHERN SOUTH CAROLINA...AND FOR PORTIONS OF THE MID-ATLANTIC STATES... ...SUMMARY... Strong to occasionally severe thunderstorms are possible today from parts of the Mid-Atlantic states to Florida. Damaging gusts and an isolated risk for a tornado or two are the primary hazards. ...Mid-Atlantic states into the coastal Carolinas and GA/FL... Morning water-vapor imagery shows a deep-layer cyclone centered over southern Lake Michigan and this feature will slowly migrate east into OH during the period. Occluded low over southern Great Lakes will slowly fill as a secondary cyclone deepens as it moves from NC/VA this morning to south/east of Long Island late tonight. A cold front will sweep east across the Southeast and through much of the FL Peninsula. Strong to severe thunderstorm activity this morning concentrated over the FL Panhandle and southern GA will continue to progress east to the immediate southeast of an intense mid-level speed max over the southern Appalachians. The airmass south and east of the front in north FL and southern GA will slowly heat/destabilize today despite relatively poor 850-500 mb lapse rates (reference 10z Cape Canaveral and 12z Tampa and Jacksonville raobs). Strengthening and gradually veering flow with height will support organized line segments and occasional supercell structures embedded within the convective band. A tornado or two and damaging gusts will be possible with the stronger activity through midday. As this activity pushes southeastward over north FL into the central part of the Peninsula this afternoon, wind damage will likely become the primary severe hazard of concern. Farther north, strong mid-level height falls and the aforementioned deepening of the low will invoke a strong mass response across the Mid-Atlantic states. Relatively rich low-level moisture over NC this morning (low to mid 60s surface dewpoints) will advance northward in tandem with a warm front as the low develops northeast during the day. Model guidance indicates a band of scattered thunderstorms will develop over central VA by early afternoon and move east towards the coast. A few of the stronger storms will potentially evolve into supercells and/or organized line segments with damaging gusts/tornado as the main threats. Farther south over central NC into northeast SC, some stabilizing influence from early morning convection (reference the 12z Charleston raob) and large-scale ascent focusing farther north lends uncertainty on coverage/magnitude of the severe risk near/south of VA/NC border. Have lowered severe probabilities in parts of NC/SC to account for this observational trend and forecast scenario. ...Southwest OR into Central ID... Mid-level moistening is anticipated across the region as upper troughing approaches from the northwest. This moistening atop a deeply mixed boundary will support modest buoyancy. Increasing ascent will interact with this destabilizing air mass to support thunderstorm development during the late afternoon. Deep-layer shear should be strong enough to support updraft organization and potentially a few supercells. These rotating updrafts may support isolated hail, while high cloud bases support the potential for strong outflow. ..Smith/Leitman.. 04/03/2024 Read more View the full article
