SCATTERED-NUMEROUS TSTMS SHOULD MOVE EWD ACROSS SRN PORTIONS FL
PENINSULA...AND PERHAPS PORTIONS LOWER-MIDDLE KEYS...DURING NEXT FEW
HOURS. ISOLATED HAIL/GUSTS NEAR SVR LEVELS ARE POSSIBLE...HOWEVER
THREAT APPEARS TOO MRGL TO WARRANT WW.

RICHLY MOIST MARINE AIR MASS -- CHARACTERIZED BY 70S F SFC DEW
POINTS -- ARE EXPECTED TO SPREAD INLAND OVER MORE OF SRN PENINSULA
BEFORE ARRIVAL OF MAIN AREA OF CONVECTION. THIS...ALONG WITH SOME
HEATING FROM MORNING INSOLATION...SHOULD OFFSET WEAK LOW-MIDLEVEL
LAPSE RATES ENOUGH TO YIELD MUCAPES 1000-1500 J/KG AND WEAKENING
SBCINH. WEAK LOW LEVEL WINDS -- EVIDENT IN AVAILABLE VWP DATA AND
IN RUC FCST SOUNDINGS -- WILL KEEP LOW LEVEL SHEAR WEAK AND
HODOGRAPHS SMALL. STRONG UPPER LEVEL WINDS...HOWEVER....WILL AID IN
VENTING OF UPDRAFT COLUMNS ALOFT AND MAY CONTRIBUTE TO SUSTAINED AND
SOMEWHAT ORGANIZED MULTICELLULAR/LINEAR SEGMENTED STRUCTURES.
