Mesoscale Discussion 1108
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0227 PM CDT Fri Jun 16 2023

Areas affected...portions of the central Florida Peninsula

Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely 

Valid 161927Z - 162200Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent

SUMMARY...A couple of damaging gusts are possible this afternoon.
The severe threat should remain isolated and a WW issuance is not
expected.

DISCUSSION...Several pulse cellular storms have developed along the
leading edge of a density current from a remnant MCS which
dissipated across the FL panhandle earlier today. While this density
current will act as a source of lift for scattered to widespread
thunderstorm development through the afternoon, vertical shear will
remain quite weak ahead of the storms. When also considering modest
mid-level lapse rates, the main threat with the stronger storms
would be a couple of damaging gusts. Since the overall severe threat
is expected to be isolated, a WW issuance is not anticipated.
