A significant weather event is unfolding across parts of Florida and near Cuba, with meteorologists tracking a series of supercells, including one described as 'quite the supercell' west of Havana, Cuba. Another potent supercell with very strong waterspout activity was reported approximately 40 miles southwest of Key West, expected to stay offshore but with a squall line impacting Southwest Florida, particularly Collier and Monroe Counties, around 10 PM to midnight. Additionally, there's significant rotation over the Everglades, prompting close monitoring for potential tornado development before the system moves into Broward or Palm Beach County. An embedded supercell is also developing over South Miami-Dade, showing some weak rotation. A tornado watch for the Keys is in effect for this evening.
Keeping an eye on what looks like another embedded supercell developing over South Miami-Dade right now. Some weak rotation showing up - hopefully that's all we get. https://t.co/SwFyPc9GIo
This cell is over the Everglades but there’s significant rotation. This needs to be watched for a#tornado before it moves into Broward or Palm Beach County. #FLwx https://t.co/SwQjIeilLL
Potent rotating supercell with very strong waterspout about 40 miles southwest of Key West. This supercell will stay offshore, but a squall line with embedded kinks of rotation will hit sometime around 10-midnight. SW Florida, mainly Collier/Monroe Counties, may be impacted. https://t.co/ucFgV4kGsr
Always interesting how you can get convective cells embedded in a massive shield of stratiform precipitation. In this case, a classic looking supercell with a tight couplet south of Key West. I can see why @NWSSPC is looking at a tornado watch for the Keys this evening. https://t.co/sBSCs6bkzc
That's quite the supercell west of Havana, Cuba, right now. 👀 https://t.co/G8ghzVedvl
