A weather watch is not anticipated. DISCUSSION...As of 1820 UTC, regional radar and satellite analysis showed scattered thunderstorms developing along a weak frontal zone across portions of southern GA and northern FL. Further convective development appears likely this afternoon along the front and sea breeze boundaries as surface temperatures continue to warm into the upper 80s F. While mid-level lapse rates are poor (5-6 C/km) The warm and moist air mass with dewpoints in the upper 60s to low 70s F will support moderate buoyancy with 1000-1500 J/kg of MLCAPE available. Aided by subtle enhancement of the mid-level flow from a passing shortwave over the Carolinas, a few stronger updrafts may gradually evolve into multi-cell clusters or transient supercell structures this afternoon. The high PWAT air mass will favor heavily water-loaded downdrafts capable of isolated damaging wind gusts, especially with any more persistent/forward-propagating clusters. Hi-res guidance and observational trends suggest the greatest corridor of threat will likely evolve along the intersection of the cold front and sea breeze front across portions of far southeastern GA and the northern FL Peninsula this afternoon. While a few damaging gusts are possible, the sporadic nature of storm organization owing to the lack of more robust upper-level support suggests a weather watch is unlikely. ...Lyons/Grams.. 05/21/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!6XBMbdoABsGrLXZU2O7f6y2llu0NECXUtjLzR09lNMvMiSQFrbfTYOy95DRu74xjolFr1sU_b= cCSL_p7Oco3mHuzX44$ for graphic product...
