    Areas affected...west-central Florida Peninsula

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely

    Valid 061904Z - 062100Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent

    SUMMARY...The risk for a brief tornado/waterspout will increase in
    the short term across the west-central Florida coast.

    DISCUSSION...A few transient supercells have been noted over the
    eastern Gulf offshore from the west-central FL coast. Recently, a
    more persistent and stronger rotation signature has been noted with
    a small supercell west of Tampa Bay. This cell is near the
    differential heating zone/cold front where low-level instability in
    stronger and low-level SRH is maximized near and north of the
    boundary. This cell, and others developing offshore may shift closer
    to shore over the next 1-2 hours. As this occurs, a risk for a brief tornado/waterspout moving onshore will be possible. The risk will
    rapidly decrease inland from the immediate coast. Given the
    generally modest environmental parameter space and very small and
    focused risk area, a watch is not expected.
