MESOSCALE DISCUSSION 2189
NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
0246 PM CDT MON OCT 27 2025
AREAS AFFECTED...PORTIONS OF THE CENTRAL FLORIDA PENINSULA
CONCERNING...SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH UNLIKELY
VALID 271946Z - 272215Z
PROBABILITY OF WATCH ISSUANCE...5 PERCENT
SUMMARY...A COUPLE OF STRONG AND DAMAGING WIND GUSTS MAY OCCUR WITH
THE STRONGER STORMS THIS AFTERNOON.
DISCUSSION...AN MCS IS APPROACHING THE FL PENINSULA WHILE REMAINING
ORGANIZED. ROBUST INSOLATION IS TAKING PLACE AHEAD OF THE MCS OVER
THE CENTRAL FL PENINSULA, WITH THUNDERSTORM INITIATION NOTED. HERE,
NEAR 90 F TEMPERATURES AMID 70+ F DEWPOINTS, BENEATH MODEST
MID-LEVEL LAPSE RATES, IS BOOSTING MLCAPE TO 2500+ J/KG (PER 19Z
MESOANALYSIS). FURTHERMORE, APPRECIABLY STRONG MID TO UPPER
WEST-SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW IS CONTRIBUTING TO ELONGATED HODOGRAPHS AND
ASSOCIATED SPEED SHEAR, AS SHOWN VIA RAP FORECAST SOUNDINGS.
HOWEVER, THE MODEST MID-LEVEL LAPSE RATES ARE CONSTRAINING BUOYANCY
TO RELATIVELY NARROW PROFILES. THIS MAY LIMIT THE SEVERE THREAT TO A
DEGREE, EITHER WITH THE APPROACHING MCS OR ANY MULTICELLULAR AND/OR
TRANSIENT SUPERCELLULAR STORMS THAT CAN MATURE AHEAD OF IT. THE
CURRENT THINKING IS THAT THE MORE MATURE STORMS, OR STRONGER CORES
WITHIN THE APPROACHING MCS, MAY SUPPORT A COUPLE OF STRONG, DAMAGING
WIND GUSTS OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS. AN INSTANCE OR TWO OF HAIL
CANNOT BE RULED OUT.
