It looks to be quite windy over in Florida today. Many 40mph+ gust reports across the state..which is pretty impressive. I will be over in Florida soon (on the east-central coast), and am hoping for warm weather and hopefully one or two good storms while I am there.

From the SPC...

...FL...
THE TRAILING SEGMENT OF THE MS VALLEY SHORTWAVE TROUGH...CLEARLY EVIDENT IN MORNING WV IMAGERY ACROSS THE NRN GULF...WILL CONTINUE TO SPREAD EAST THIS MORNING...TO NRN FL THROUGH LATE TODAY.
LIFT/DESTABILIZATION WITH THIS FEATURE WAS DRIVING AN MCS OVER THE NERN GULF THIS MORNING PER COASTAL RADARS...IR IMAGERY...AND LIGHTNING DETECTION DATA. DOWNSTREAM AIR MASS ACROSS FL WAS DRY AND STABLE IN WAKE OF MOST RECENT INTRUSION OF CONTINENTAL POLAR AIR AND THIS WILL LIMIT THE DEVELOPMENT OF STRONGER INSTABILITY ACROSS LAND AREAS TODAY. HOWEVER...TSTM CHANCES WILL INCREASE ACROSS THE
PENINSULA ASSOCIATED WITH STRENGTHENING ISENTROPIC LIFT AND MOISTURE TRANSPORT ACCOMPANYING THE SRN BRANCH DISTURBANCE. IT IS POSSIBLE THAT A FEW STORMS COULD ATTAIN SEVERE LEVELS...WITH WIND/ISOLATED HAIL POTENTIAL GREATEST ALONG THE GULF COAST. SEVERE WEATHER POTENTIAL COULD EXTEND INLAND IF DIFFERENTIAL HEATING BOUNDARY AND GREATER DESTABILIZATION CAN OCCUR. LATEST GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO
INDICATE THAT THIS POTENTIAL REMAINS LOW AND AREAL COVERAGE OF ANY SEVERE THREAT WILL PROBABLY REMAIN LIMITED. THUS...LOW SEVERE PROBABILITIES WILL BE MAINTAINED AT THIS TIME.
