ZCZC SPCSWOMCD ALL ACUS11 KWNS 280322 SPC MCD 280322 FLZ000-280545- Mesoscale Discussion 1920 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1022 PM CDT Wed Oct 27 2021 Areas affected...parts of the coastal Florida Panhandle Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible Valid 280322Z - 280545Z Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent SUMMARY...Isolated severe storms may eventually impact coastal counties of the Florida Panhandle. DISCUSSION...An expanding batch of thunderstorms continues to move eastward across southern AL and into the western FL Panhandle, with the bulk of the activity offshore. A warm front currently extends from the Mobile/Pensacola area east/southeastward over the Gulf of Mexico, with only low to mid 60s F dewpoints toward Panama City FL as of 03Z. Warm advection aided by 30-40 kt southwesterly flow at 850 mb will result in a gradual increase in instability across the coastal counties of the FL Panhandle, coincident with the arrival of 70s F dewpoints. Shear will favor supercells, and perhaps a brief tornado, but the overall threat will depend on the degree of boundary-layer destabilization over land. As such, an additional watch could be needed later tonight east of WW 543. ..Jewell/Grams.. 10/28/2021 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product... ATTN...WFO...TAE...MOB...
