Areas affected...Eastern FL Panhandle into far southwest GA

Concerning...Tornado Watch 24...

Valid 121647Z - 121745Z

The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 24 continues.

SUMMARY...A limited severe threat with low probabilities for a brief tornado/locally strong gusts should persist with a thunderstorm line
moving east across the Florida Panhandle and far southwest Georgia.

DISCUSSION...A short-line segment is ongoing from extreme southwest
GA to the central FL Panhandle coast. The warm-moist sector ahead of
this line is quite confined with only about a county-wide band of
upper 60s surface dew points. Modified 12Z TLH sounding suggests
this richer moisture is necessary for appreciable surface-based
instability, and will remain the main mitigating factor to the
severe threat. Latest CAM guidance has minimal indications for
appreciable strengthening of this line and given the observational
trends, additional watch issuance seems unlikely. Surface wind gusts
still seem likely to peak in the 45-60 mph range given semi-parallel
deep-layer flow to the orientation of the line and peak measured
gust during the past hour of 45 mph at KMAI.
