Valid 121209Z - 121345Z The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 707 continues. SUMMARY...The tornado threat across north-central Florida will likely continue for several more hours this morning. New watch issuance will be need to be issued by 13Z, to replace the current watch 707. DISCUSSION...The latest surface analysis shows a very moist airmass in place across most of the central and northern Florida Peninsula, where surface dewpoints are generally in the upper 70s and lower 80s F. This, combined with temperatures in the lower to mid 80s F, is contributing to moderate instability. The RAP has MLCAPE generally in the 1500 to 2500 J/kg range. In addition to the instability, strong low-level shear is present across north-central Florida. The Tampa Bay and Melbourne WSR-88D VWPs continue to show 0-3 storm-relative helicity in the 350 to 425 m2/s2 range. This is due to a 60 to 70 knot low-level jet, which is currently moving across north-central Florida. In response to the favorable low-level shear, the tornado threat is expected to continue for several more hours. For this reason, a new weather watch will be needed to replace WW 707. ...Broyles.. 10/12/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!67eCQQ60SxHiR_mEb4gMCMvJyeoDuOg9HVVsafk-RsnRI-moL12EtuQAxyzsB7LSP_7LEVNlo= -_crpN_hDKtWDqjcJQ$ for graphic product...
