429 ACUS02 KWNS 271653 SWODY2 SPC AC 271652 Day 2 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1152 AM CDT Fri Mar 27 2026 Valid 281200Z - 291200Z ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST... ...SUMMARY... Isolated thunderstorms will be possible Saturday afternoon across portions of the Florida Peninsula and Keys, but the potential for severe thunderstorms is low. ...Synopsis... Northwesterly flow aloft will deamplify as an upper trough shifts offshore over the western Atlantic. At the surface, a cold front will progress southward across the northern/central FL Peninsula. Strong heating and a seasonally moist airmass ahead of the front will support MLCAPE up to 1000 J/kg. Isolated to scattered thunderstorms are possible across the central/southern FL Peninsula and Keys by peak heating and into the early evening. However, very weak deep-layer flow and poor lapse rates will preclude severe thunderstorm potential. Elsewhere across the CONUS, a dry/stable airmass and strong surface high pressure centered over the Midwest will preclude thunderstorm activity. ..Leitman.. 03/27/2026 $$
