[html]MD 0517 CONCERNING SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH UNLIKELY FOR PARTS OF THE FL PANHANDLE AND SOUTHERN GA
Mesoscale Discussion 0517
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0503 PM CDT Sun Apr 17 2022
Areas affected...Parts of the FL Panhandle and southern GA
Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely
Valid 172203Z - 180000Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent
SUMMARY...Isolated large hail and locally strong wind gusts will be
possible during the next couple hours across portions of the FL
Panhandle and southern GA. Watch issuance is not expected at this
time.
DISCUSSION...Latest mosaic radar imagery shows a few strong updrafts
embedded in a larger area of stratiform rain over the FL Panhandle
into far southern GA. Steep low-level lapse rates and modest
boundary-layer moisture (dewpoints in the middle 60s) are
contributing to 1500 J/kg MLCAPE where VWPs show 35-45 knots 0-6km
bulk shear. While low-level flow remains weak and large-scale ascent
is minimal, steep midlevel lapse rates co*bined with the favorable
mid/upper-level flow will continue to support isolated large hail
with the stronger/persistent cores. Locally strong wind gusts will
also be possible, mainly aided by precipitation loading and
localized upscale growth. Watch issuance is not expected at this
time.
