Areas affected...portions of the central/southern Florida Peninsula

Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely 

Valid 052112Z - 052245Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent

SUMMARY...Isolated thunderstorms are expected over the next 1-2
hours. The strongest storms may produce locally gusty winds and
small hail.

DISCUSSION...Modest destabilization has occurred across the
central/southern FL Peninsula this afternoon amid strong heating and
mid/upper 60s F surface dewpoints. Effective shear magnitudes around
30-40 kt will support some storm organization. However, modest
midlevel lapse rates, along with generally weak instability and
light winds through 3 km, will likely limit longevity of any
stronger updrafts. Forecast soundings do indicated elongated
hodographs above 3 km, so any updraft that can be sustained could
potential produce small hail given cooler temperatures aloft.
Otherwise, locally gusty winds may accompany these storms as well.
Given the overall marginal nature of the environment and expected
isolated storm coverage, a watch is not expected.
