Yes, and the same goes for the summer storms that move from east to west around a high to our north. They're usually much stronger, and at times violent, than the garden variety sea breeze front induced storms that move in a northerly direction off the Gulf.
Case in point: the storms that rolled through the Baton Rouge metro area yesterday evening.

P.S. That would be just south of the Florida/Alabama state line.. is that a counter-clock wise rotation I'm seeing?
