THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR EAST CENTRAL FLORIDA.
.DAY ONE...TONIGHT.
...TORNADO WATCH FOR MUCH OF EAST CENTRAL FLORIDA THROUGH 4 AM EST...
...THUNDERSTORM IMPACT...
A BROKEN LINE OF LIGHTNING STORMS WILL MOVE ACROSS THE EAST CENTRAL
FLORIDA AREA TONIGHT AND INTO THE EARLY MORNING HOURS OF THURSDAY.
STRONG ENVIRONMENTAL WINDS IN CONJUNCTION WITH THESE STORMS WILL
LEAD TO THE POSSIBILITY OF SEVERE WEATHER AND OR ISOLATED
TORNADOES. A FEW STORMS WILL HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO PRODUCE BRIEF
TORNADOES...WIND GUSTS IN EXCESS OF 55 MPH...AND DEADLY CLOUD TO
GROUND LIGHTNING STRIKES.
TORRENTIAL DOWNPOURS WILL REDUCE VISIBILITY AND CREATE PONDING OF
WATER ON ROADS. PERSONS IN EAST CENTRAL FLORIDA SHOULD STAY
INFORMED OF THE WEATHER OVERNIGHT. BE PREPARED TO MOVE TO A PLACE
OF SAFETY IN ADVANCE OF THREATENING WEATHER...AND ESPECIALLY IF A
WARNING IS ISSUED FOR YOUR AREA.
THE GREATEST THREAT FOR TORNADOES AND SEVERE WIND GUSTS IS
GENERALLY IN THE TORNADO WATCH AREA WHICH IS ALONG AND NORTH OF A
LINE FROM SOUTH OSCEOLA COUNTY TO THE BREVARD AND INDIAN RIVER
COUNTY LINE.
WHILE THE MAIN LINE OF STORMS IS EXPECTED TO WEAKEN OVERNIGHT...LIGHTNING
...STRONG WIND GUSTS...AND LOCALLY HEAVY DOWNPOURS WILL STILL BE
POSSIBLE SOUTH TO LAKE OKEECHOBEE AND THE TREASURE COAST EARLY
THURSDAY MORNING.
...FLOOD IMPACT...
VERY HEAVY LOCALIZED DOWNPOURS CAN BE EXPECTED AS STORMS PASS
TONIGHT. SOME LOCATIONS MAY HAVE FLOODING OF LOW LYING OR POORLY
DRAINED AREAS WITH RAINFALL TOTALS OF ONE TO TWO INCHES IN SPOTS.
...MARINE THUNDERSTORM GUST IMPACT...
SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS STORMS OVER THE MARINE AREA TONIGHT WILL PRODUCE
GUSTS IN EXCESS OF 34 KNOTS AND FREQUENT CLOUD TO WATER LIGHTNING
STRIKES...ESPECIALLY NORTH OF SEBASTIAN INLET TO LAKE MARIAN.
INLAND LAKES ARE NOT IMMUNE FROM THE EFFECTS OF STRONG STORMS AND
HAZARDOUS BOATING CONDITIONS CAN QUICKLY DEVELOP OVER LAKES WITH
GUSTY WINDS AND FREQUENT LIGHTNING.
...WATERSPOUT IMPACT...
STORMS MOVING OFF THE MAINLAND WILL BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING
WATERSPOUTS IN THE MARINE AREAS OF THE INTRACOASTAL WATERWAY AS
WELL AS THE NEARSHORE ATLANTIC WATERS OF EAST CENTRAL FLORIDA. THE
WATERSPOUT THREAT WILL BE HIGHER MAINLY FROM BREVARD COUNTY TO
VOLUSIA COUNTY ALONG THE COAST OVERNIGHT.
...WIND AND SEA IMPACT...
A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT FOR BOTH THE NEAR SHORE AND
OFFSHORE COASTAL WATERS FROM FLAGLER BEACH THROUGH JUPITER INLET.
SUSTAINED SOUTH TO SOUTHEAST WINDS OF 20 TO 25 KNOTS WITH OCCASIONAL
GUSTS AROUND 30 KNOTS WILL OCCUR...WITH SEAS BUILDING TO 7 FEET WELL
AWAY FROM THE COAST.
.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY.
RAINFALL WILL PERSIST ACROSS THE SOUTHERN SECTIONS ON THURSDAY THEN
SPREAD BACK NORTH ACROSS MUCH OF EAST CENTRAL FLORIDA FRIDAY...AND
MAY PERSIST INTO SATURDAY. ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS WILL ALSO BE
POSSIBLE. MANY AREAS ARE FORECAST TO RECEIVE A BENEFICIAL SOAKING
RAINFALL OF ONE TO TWO INCHES. HOWEVER...THERE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR
A SIGNIFICANT RAIN EVENT PRODUCING 3 INCHES OR MORE WHERE CONVECTION
TRAINS OVER THE SAME AREAS.
.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
ACTIVATION OF SKYWARN NETWORKS IN AFFECTED AREAS IS CURRENTLY IN
PROGRESS.
