Mesoscale Discussion 2144
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0522 PM CDT Wed Oct 09 2024

Areas affected…Southern and Central Florida Peninsula

Concerning…Tornado Watch 690…

Valid 092222Z – 100015Z

The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 690 continues.

SUMMARY…An isolated tornado threat is expected to continue across
parts of the southern and central Florida Peninsula over the next
couple of hours.

DISCUSSION…Hurricane Milton is currently just offshore to the
south of Tampa Bay, and will move inland over the next hour. The
outer band of Milton is now moving offshore from the east coast of
the Florida Peninsula. Instability and strong low-level shear,
evident on RAP analysis along the East Coast, will continue to be
favorable for tornado development over the next hour up the coast
from the vicinity of Jupiter Beach. Further west, an isolated
tornado threat is expected to continue as the inner bands of Milton
move eastward across the southern and central Florida Peninsula. The
greatest remaining tornado threat may develop across central Florida
as the inner band ahead of the eyewall moves inland this evening.
The tornado threat will decrease from west to east as a dry slot
associated with Milton moves gradually eastward across the southern
and central Florida Peninsula.
