CORRECTED FOR INCORRECT OCEAN REFERENCE
The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 596 continues.
SUMMARY...Isolated tornado threat will persist through the day
today.
DISCUSSION...Tropical Storm Debby is slowly moving north through
portions of northwest Florida. An extensive region of banded
precipitation extends from the eastern eyewall into the western
Atlantic and across the Florida Peninsula. Instability has been
mostly weak amid persistent stratiform rain across northeast Florida
and southeast Georgia. Greater instability has developed with more
broken cloudcover across central Florida where lightning activity
has been focused. However, surface winds are veered in this region
and thus, the tornado threat is somewhat muted.
The wind profile sampled by the JAX VWP remains quite favorable for
low-level updraft organization and tornado potential. If greater
instability can develop along the coast later today, an increasing
tornado threat is possible from southeast Georgia into eastern South
Carolina as the wind field expands northward.
