WW 229 SEVERE TSTM FL GA CW 100805Z - 101500Z
URGENT - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED Severe Thunderstorm Watch Number 229 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 405 AM EDT Fri May 10 2024 The NWS Storm Prediction Center has issued a * Severe Thunderstorm Watch for portions of Northern Florida Southern Georgia Coastal Waters * Effective this Friday morning from 405 AM until 1100 AM EDT. * Primary threats include... Widespread damaging winds likely with isolated significant gusts to 80 mph possible Isolated large hail events to 1.5 inches in diameter possible A tornado or two possible SUMMARY...Multiple well-organized squall lines with bowing segments will quickly spread east-southeastward across the region through the early morning hours, with damaging winds being the primary hazard. The severe thunderstorm watch area is approximately along and 75 statute miles north and south of a line from 45 miles northwest of Panama City FL to 5 miles east of Valdosta GA. For a complete depiction of the watch see the associated watch outline update (WOUS64 KWNS WOU9). PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS... REMEMBER...A Severe Thunderstorm Watch means conditions are favorable for 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. Severe thunderstorms can and occasionally do produce tornadoes. && OTHER WATCH INFORMATION...CONTINUE...WW 226...WW 227...WW 228...

Day 4-8 Outlook
Day 4-8 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0358 AM CDT Fri May 10 2024 Valid 131200Z - 181200Z ...DISCUSSION... Medium-range guidance is in relatively good agreement that a southern-stream shortwave trough will extend from KS into eastern Mexico early D4/Monday morning. This shortwave is then expected to make steady eastward progress, moving across the Mid/Lower MS Valley on D5/Tuesday and TN Valley/Mid-Atlantic on D6/Wednesday. Strong buoyancy and shear will likely be in place from central TX into LA on D4/Monday. However, given the potential for multiple days of antecedent rainfall, there is some uncertainty regarding whether or not the airmass will really be as unstable as guidance indicates. Additionally, differences in frontal timing lead to variance on the location of the best buoyancy and shear. Predictability remains too low to outlook any areas. Some severe potential may materialize across the Southeast and FL on D5/Tuesday, where moderate buoyancy and shear could be in place ahead of the approaching shortwave. However, timing differences within guidance coupled with uncertainty regarding the extent of antecedent precipitation and the location of the warm sector limit overall forecast confidence. From D6/Wednesday into D8/Friday, guidance continues to show notable run-to-run and model-to-model variability as split flow prevails and the southern stream remains active. Given the likely favorable buoyancy, some severe is possible from TX into the Southeast during this time. However, this low-predictability pattern and resulting variability within the guidance precludes outlooking any areas. Read more
