SEVERE STORMS. TWO UNCERTAINTIES FOR A SEVERE THREAT IN FL TUESDAY
INCLUDE INSTABILITY AND STORM MODE. IF SUBSTANTIAL DESTABILIZATION
OCCURS ACROSS THE FL PENINSULA AND A SQUALL-LINE ORGANIZES TUESDAY
MORNING...THEN A SEVERE THREAT WOULD BE POSSIBLE. A SEVERE THREAT
AREA MAY BE NEED TO BE ADDED IN LATER OUTLOOKS ONCE THE TIMING AND
POSITION OF THE UPPER-LEVEL TROUGH BECOMES MORE CERTAIN. BEYOND

RIDGE IN THE ECNTRL STATES BY FRIDAY SUGGESTING THE POTENTIAL
