    Areas affected...Portions of Northwest Texas into southwest Oklahoma

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20

    Valid 180113Z - 180245Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent

    SUMMARY...An isolated severe wind threat may continue into the
    evening.

    DISCUSSION...Despite somewhat meager updraft cores, storms from near
    Lubbock into southwest Oklahoma have been efficient wind producers
    with multiple measured severe wind gusts. An average of the 00Z RAOB
    from AMA and OUN is likely a good representation of the environment
    near these storms with moderate instability and a very deep,
    well-mixed boundary layer with a very dry sub-cloud layer.
    Therefore, the environment is supportive for heat-burst type winds,
    and the location of some of these measured wind gusts in relation to
    the cores would also suggest these winds may be originating from the
    anvil rather than from typical downburst processes.

    Thunderstorms are expected to weaken with the loss of daytime
    heating, but occasional heat-burst driven severe wind gusts remain
    possible for the next few hours.

    Areas affected...eastern FL Panhandle...far southern GA

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20

    Valid 171659Z - 171900Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent

    SUMMARY...A few thunderstorms will probably be capable of 45-55 mph
    gusts. Pockets of wind damage will likely result from the stronger
    wet microbursts.

    DISCUSSION...Visible satellite/radar mosaic imagery show a
    developing cluster of thunderstorms along a sea-breeze front over
    the FL Panhandle. To the east of this developing thunderstorm
    cluster, mostly sunny skies will continue to promote strong heating
    through the early afternoon and yield steepening low-level lapse
    rates. K2J9 (Quincy Municipal Airport, FL) observed a 35-kt gust
    with a thunderstorm at 1635 UTC.=20=20

    The 12 UTC Tallahassee raob showed greater buoyancy compared to the Jacksonville raob (1100 vs. 400 J/kg MLCAPE). Given this observed
    gradient in buoyancy with a similar observed PW value (1.5 inches),
    expecting more vigorous thunderstorm development over the eastern FL
    Panhandle through the early afternoon with weaker storms farther
    east over North FL. The stronger water-loaded downdrafts will
    probably be capable of at least strong and perhaps locally damaging
    gusts (45-55 mph). Pockets of wind damage are the primary hazard
    with this activity. Weak westerly tropospheric flow (per KTLH VAD
    data) will favor slow eastward storm motions and a general motion
    eastward of the evolving thunderstorm cluster.
