HOLT, Fla., Nov. 19, 2023—There is a potential for some strong-to-severe thunderstorms tomorrow night into Tuesday morning across the forecast area as a cold front moves through.

Severe storms that do develop will be capable of wind gusts up to 60 mph with a few tornadoes possible, according to the National Weather Service.

Northwest Florida is in a level 1 risk zone with areas to the west in Alabama and Mississippi in a more severe level 2 zone.

That said, the NWS says there is still some uncertainty in the timing of the storms and that it’s possible the risk could be extended eastward.
