Strong/damaging gusts will be the primary severe risk, and trends are being monitored for the possibility of a Severe Thunderstorm Watch. DISCUSSION...Regional radar composite shows thunderstorms in clusters/short line segments over the central FL peninsula at 1535z. A recent gust to 57 kt was observed at KMCO/Orlando International Airport, otherwise most convective gusts thus far have been in the 40 to 55 mph range. South and east of ongoing storms, daytime heating is contributing to strong instability (MLCAPE averaging 3000 J/kg). Additional storm development is possible as a mid-level perturbation within the broadly cyclonic mid-level flow moves east across the area. Mid-level flow of 30-35 kts will be sufficient for organized storms/clusters. Low-level flow remains veered, however, and some uncertainty exists regarding the coverage of severe storms with southward extent. Current expectations are that a Severe Thunderstorm Watch may be needed in the next few hours if observational and short-term guidance trends support sufficient severe storm coverage south of ongoing storms. ...Bunting/Hart.. 06/17/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!9AHm4BuwLTRAPJXE9YWZbavMGaheXNhr2pENOCSQIw3T5KNQ_DAnFIvaof2SJSfHYeJmK0f-f= UoauCzc-SZV-RXdz9U$ for graphic product...
