   CONCERNING...SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 74...
   
   VALID 222002Z - 222100Z
   
   THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 74
   CONTINUES.
   
   BROKEN LINE OF CONVECTION CONTINUES TO PROGRESS EASTWARD ACROSS THE
   AREA...AND SEVERAL BOWING SEGMENTS HAVE BEEN NOTED ON RADAR. 
   OBSERVATIONAL DATA AHEAD OF THE LINE INDICATE THAT AFTERNOON HEATING
   AND MIXING HAVE SOMEWHAT LOWERED DEW POINTS ACROSS
   FLORIDA...ALTHOUGH THIS MAY PROMOTE STRONGER DOWNDRAFTS DUE TO
   EVAPORATIONAL COOLING. MEAN WIND FIELDS AND 18Z SOUNDING DATA FROM
   KTLH AND KJAX STILL INDICATE FAVORABLE MOISTURE/WIND PROFILES WITH
   THE MAIN THREAT OF DAMAGING WINDS. MAIN LINE IS NOW CO-LOCATED WITH
   STALLED W-E ORIENTED FRONTAL BOUNDARY ACROSS SOUTHEAST GEORGIA. A
   BRIEF TORNADO COULD STILL BE POSSIBLE...ESPECIALLY NEAR THE
   AFOREMENTIONED BOUNDARY WHERE BACKED LOW LEVEL WINDS MAY SUPPORT
   ROTATING UPDRAFTS.
