   Mesoscale Discussion 2143
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   0315 PM CDT Wed Oct 09 2024

   Areas affected...East Central and Southeastern Florida

   Concerning...Tornado Watch 690...

   Valid 092015Z - 092145Z

   The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 690 continues.

   SUMMARY...Tornado threat continues across east central and
   southeastern Florida. A strong tornado or two remains possible.

   DISCUSSION...Supercell thunderstorms continue to produce tornadoes
   across east central and southeastern Florida. East to southeasterly
   surface flow has increased with a very favorable curved hodograph
   observed from the VAD profile at MLB (Melbourne, FL) and effective
   SRH around 300 m2/s2. MLCAPE continues to be favorable (around
   1000-2000 J/kg), though the corridor has narrowed towards the
   eastern coast of the peninsula. This environment will continue to
   support a risk of tornadoes, a few of which may be strong, over the
   next few hours before loss of daytime heating begins.
