Mesoscale Discussion 2136 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0919 AM CDT Wed Oct 09 2024 Areas affected...Portions of South Florida Concerning...Tornado Watch 690... Valid 091419Z - 091545Z The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 690 continues. SUMMARY...Potential for tornadoes will continue late this morning into the afternoon. The threat will gradually expand northward as heating destabilizes the boundary layer. Wind fields will also increasingly support tornadoes with time. DISCUSSION...Low-level rotation has been increasing in two supercell storms south of Lake Okeechobee. One storm produced a tornado in Collier County just before moving into Hendry County. More recently, the storm in central Broward County produced a tornado as well. Storms earlier this morning generally began to weaken near Lake Okeechobee, but temperatures have been increasing with surface heating. That being said, the tornado threat will likely begin to extend farther north over the next few hours. Additional updrafts in eastern Collier County have also been slowly deepening over the last hour. This activity could intensify and similarly be capable of producing a tornado. Potential for tornadoes, including a strong tornado, should continue to increase as stronger low-level flow across the peninsula expands as Milton moves eastward and its wind field concurrently expands. ..Wendt.. 10/09/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
