Quoting: Anonymous Coward 22887638 Who cares. People down there have no where to go anyways. When weather patterns bring snow to a region that typically doesnt ever get snow... much less 17 inches in blizzard conditions... I find it interesting... its cool you dont. thanks for the bump... _______________________ |

A tornado watch continues in effect until 8 pm est for most of the eastern Florida Big Bend. Another chance for severe weather will occur later this evening and overnight as a strong cold front races eastward across the Gulf Coast as a potent upper level system moves into the Ohio River Valley. A squall line will develop ahead of the front and will be the focus for the severe weather threat. The primary threat will be damaging winds but isolated tornadoes will also be possible. In fact, SPC has areas from Tallahassee west outlooked for 10% probabilities for seeing significant tornadoes, something that is rare in this part of the country. We will also continue to be concerned with additional flooding as models show another 2 to 3 inches of rain over a widespread area through daybreak Tuesday and flash flood guidance is down to 1.0-1.5 inches per hour. After coordination with WFO JAX, the flash flood watch has been extended eastward to include Taylor, Lafayette and Madison Counties. |
