I WILL BE MONITORING ANOTHER DISTURBANCE FROM THE GULF

Same model that forecast this weekend's Gulf disturbance is forecasting another low pressure disturbance from the western Gulf that will track toward Central Florida west coast.  Question is will this disturbance hold up to produce severe weather across the state?  So far it seems that it may loose it's convective energy before it makes it on shore.  However, this is into the future and everything can change.  I will continue to monitor each run in the coming week. 

There is another system that will bring very cold wind chill temps on Wednesday for northern and Central Florida that is moving across the southeast as we speak. 

Chance for thunderstorms are 10% the big bend and 10% for the West Central coast...RTW
