Day 3 Convective Outlook

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER SOUTH
FLORIDA...
...SUMMARY...
At least a marginal risk for a tornado or two might evolve across
south Florida Saturday in association with tropical storm Fred.
...South Florida...
Tropical Storm Fred is forecast by the National Hurricane Center to
reach the southern FL Peninsula Saturday. Based on this forecast,
low-level shear may become sufficient for a threat of a couple of
tornadoes with convection developing east of the center.
...Elsewhere...
Numerous pulse and multicell storms will develop from the Northeast
States into the southern Appalachians and west into the southern and
central Plains. A few instances of downburst winds could occur with
the stronger storms, but weak vertical shear and a modest
thermodynamic environment suggest an organized severe threat is
unlikely. One exception could be over the central High Plains where
a belt of slightly stronger flow will reside above southeasterly
post-frontal upslope winds. However, weak forcing and potential
capping issues lower confidence in robust thunderstorm initiation at
this time.
