As we were getting started looking at weather in Florida, a good case for the Convective Initiation and Cloud Top Cooling algorithms took place over the southern county of MLB’s CWA.
Convective Initiation gave
first indication of developing convection at 1925z.
Cloud Top Cooling gave a strong signal at 1940z and 1945z.
Max Estimated Hail Size (MESH) indicated Hail at 1.1 inch at 2026z.
A combination of the Convective Initiation and Cloud Top Cooling used
together could have raised awareness of a possibly severe storm up to
45 minutes ahead of time.
