    Mesoscale Discussion 2072
    NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
    1224 PM CST Wed Dec 29 2021

    Areas affected...portions of the western Florida Panhandle into
    extreme southeast Alabama

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

    Valid 291824Z - 292000Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent

    SUMMARY...A damaging gust or perhaps a brief tornado may accompany
    the strongest storms that can become organized along the coastline.
    A WW issuance is not expected given the isolated, localized nature
    of the severe threat.

    DISCUSSION...A cluster of relatively robust convective updrafts have
    recently become established just off of the FL shoreline along an
    850 mb moisture axis, and are moving ashore along western portions
    of the Panhandle. Little in the way of lightning has been observed
    in the past 1-2 hours with these storms. However, modified 16Z RAP
    forecast soundings (valid for 18Z) based on the latest METAR
    observations shows up to 1000 J/kg MLCAPE resides ahead of these
    storms. While deep-layer shear remains weak, the 1801Z EVX VWP shows
    modest 0-3 km veering, with up to 150 m2/s2 SRH present in this
    layer. As such, it is not completely out of the question for any
    sustained storm to produce a damaging gust or a brief tornado to
    occur should a storm organize. Nonetheless, the weak deep-layer
    shear will likely limit the degree of the severe threat, with the
    lack of deep-layer ascent keeping the threat area localized. A WW
    issuance is not expected.
