NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
0204 PM CDT TUE OCT 06 2026
AREAS AFFECTED...WEST-CENTRAL FLORIDA PENINSULA
CONCERNING...SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH UNLIKELY
VALID 061904Z - 062100Z
PROBABILITY OF WATCH ISSUANCE...5 PERCENT
SUMMARY...THE RISK FOR A BRIEF TORNADO/WATERSPOUT WILL INCREASE IN
THE SHORT TERM ACROSS THE WEST-CENTRAL FLORIDA COAST.
DISCUSSION...A FEW TRANSIENT SUPERCELLS HAVE BEEN NOTED OVER THE
EASTERN GULF OFFSHORE FROM THE WEST-CENTRAL FL COAST. RECENTLY, A
MORE PERSISTENT AND STRONGER ROTATION SIGNATURE HAS BEEN NOTED WITH
A SMALL SUPERCELL WEST OF TAMPA BAY. THIS CELL IS NEAR THE
DIFFERENTIAL HEATING ZONE/COLD FRONT WHERE LOW-LEVEL INSTABILITY IN
STRONGER AND LOW-LEVEL SRH IS MAXIMIZED NEAR AND NORTH OF THE
BOUNDARY. THIS CELL, AND OTHERS DEVELOPING OFFSHORE MAY SHIFT CLOSER
TO SHORE OVER THE NEXT 1-2 HOURS. AS THIS OCCURS, A RISK FOR A BRIEF
TORNADO/WATERSPOUT MOVING ONSHORE WILL BE POSSIBLE. THE RISK WILL
RAPIDLY DECREASE INLAND FROM THE IMMEDIATE COAST. GIVEN THE
GENERALLY MODEST ENVIRONMENTAL PARAMETER SPACE AND VERY SMALL AND
FOCUSED RISK AREA, A WATCH IS NOT EXPECTED.
