URGENT - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED
Tornado Watch Number 686
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
750 PM EDT Thu Sep 26 2024
The NWS Storm Prediction Center has issued a
* Tornado Watch for portions of
Florida
Southern Georgia
Coastal Waters
* Effective this Thursday night and Friday morning from 750 PM
until 600 AM EDT.
* Primary threats include...
Several tornadoes likely
SUMMARY...Low-topped supercells in the outer rain bands of Hurricane
Helene will continue to pose a threat for several tornadoes this
evening and continuing into the overnight hours across much of
Florida and southern Georgia.
The tornado watch area is approximately along and 70 statute miles
east and west of a line from 50 miles northwest of Waycross GA to 15
miles west southwest of Avon Park FL. For a complete depiction of
the watch see the associated watch outline update (WOUS64 KWNS
WOU6).
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
REMEMBER...A Tornado Watch means conditions are favorable for
tornadoes and severe thunderstorms in and close to the watch
area. Persons in these areas should be on the lookout for
threatening weather conditions and listen for later statements
and possible warnings.

Day 4-8 Outlook
Day 4-8 Convective Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0315 AM CDT Fri Sep 27 2024
Valid 301200Z - 051200Z
...DISCUSSION...
Early next week, the upper low in the Tennessee/lower Ohio Valleys
will become an open wave and progress offshore by Wednesday, losing
amplitude with time. Upper-level troughing will shift out of the
northern Plains and into the Great Lakes early to mid next week. A
very weak surface pattern will exist ahead of the initial shortwave
trough in the vicinity of the Carolinas Monday/Tuesday. Though
modest mid-level flow enhancement will remain over the region, these
strong winds will generally be behind the main frontal zone likely
near and just offshore. Further uncertainty is introduced due to
precipitation and cloud cover. Elsewhere, cooler and more stable
conditions will move in behind the second, stronger shortwave
trough. By late next week, upper-level flow is expected to become
more zonal and the strongest flow will be near the Canadian border.
Potential for severe weather continues to appear low through the end
of next week.
