MD 0366 CONCERNING TORNADO WATCH 85… FOR PORTIONS OF NORTHERN FLORIDA INTO SOUTHEAST GEORGIA AND FAR SOUTHERN SOUTH CAROLINA
Mesoscale Discussion 0366
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0734 AM CDT Wed Apr 03 2024
Areas affected…portions of northern Florida into southeast Georgia
and far southern South Carolina
Concerning…Tornado Watch 85…
Valid 031234Z – 031330Z
The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 85 continues.
SUMMARY…Locally strong gusts and a brief tornado remain possible
across Tornado Watch 85 the next few hours.
DISCUSSION…Much of the convection form the eastern FL Panhandle
into southeast GA has become more disorganized this morning. 12z
RAOBs from JAX and CHS indicate substantial MLCIN and weak
instability. Nevertheless, vertical shear remains quite strong. With
some modest heating the next couple of hours downstream from ongoing
convection, an isolated risk for damaging gusts or perhaps a brief
tornado will continue across Tornado Watch 85.
