    Areas affected...central and southern Florida Peninsula

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible=20

    Valid 171543Z - 171715Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

    SUMMARY...Thunderstorms in clusters/short line segments will
    continue moving east across portions of central/southern Florida
    through early afternoon. Strong/damaging gusts will be the primary
    severe risk, and trends are being monitored for the possibility of a
    Severe Thunderstorm Watch.

    DISCUSSION...Regional radar composite shows thunderstorms in
    clusters/short line segments over the central FL peninsula at 1535z.
    A recent gust to 57 kt was observed at KMCO/Orlando International
    Airport, otherwise most convective gusts thus far have been in the
    40 to 55 mph range. South and east of ongoing storms, daytime
    heating is contributing to strong instability (MLCAPE averaging 3000
    J/kg). Additional storm development is possible as a mid-level
    perturbation within the broadly cyclonic mid-level flow moves east
    across the area. Mid-level flow of 30-35 kts will be sufficient for
    organized storms/clusters. Low-level flow remains veered, however,
    and some uncertainty exists regarding the coverage of severe storms
    with southward extent.

    Current expectations are that a Severe Thunderstorm Watch may be
    needed in the next few hours if observational and short-term
    guidance trends support sufficient severe storm coverage south of
    ongoing storms.
