...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PORTIONS
OF THE CENTRAL AND EASTERN GULF COAST REGION...
...SUMMARY...
Isolated damaging gusts and a brief tornado or two remain possible
tonight across parts of southern Alabama and the Florida Panhandle,
and possibly into southwest Georgia.
...Discussion...
A large area of pre-frontal convection continues across parts of the
southeast U.S. this evening. Prior rotating storms near the
Alabama/Florida Panhandle coast have weakened, as the loss of
diurnal heating and increasingly widespread convection have reduced
the already modest available instability.
With that said, ample shear -- including some turning in the lowest
couple of KM with height -- will persist across the area into the
overnight hours. As such, will maintain a MRGL risk area for
locally gusty winds or even a brief tornado or two, and will expand
this risk area a bit eastward -- into southwest GA and the remainder
of the FL panhandle -- per latest CAM runs suggesting an increase in
warm-advection-driven storms over the next few hours across this
area.
