A WW issuance is not expected. DISCUSSION...Thunderstorms have been percolating in intensity over the past few hours around the FL Keys, some of which have shown occasional instances of transient low-level rotation. Mid-level lapse rates remain poor over the region. However, the combination of surface heating amid mid 70s F surface dewpoints should support 500-1000 J/kg of tall and thin SBCAPE through the afternoon. Coinciding the buoyancy axis should be increasing 850 mb flow, which would support modestly curved low-level hodographs. As such, the stronger, more persistent thunderstorms should continue to exhibit at least brief periods of low-level rotation and a tornado (or tornadic waterspout) remains possible around the FL Keys through the afternoon hours. The tornado threat however is quite sparse, so a Tornado Watch issuance is not anticipated. ...Squitieri/Mosier.. 11/15/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!4CG3T0y4US04jodbTBzwAxtIuhXxQpDEwS9wNhRjRqgIVpOUnNe4ZGGYhn38eoszn16wsKdfq= kL3pj62ytnLm3M66dQ$ for graphic product...
