Storms will form on the cool side of a boundary atop a shallow layer of cool air.
No tornado threat, BUT we'll see a few cells with quarter- to half dollar-sized hail possible.

Tornado season ramps up markedly a month from now. But for the time being, enjoy the quiescence...

It will come precariously close to Guinjata, on Mozambique's Manta Coast. We don't think a second landfall is likely though.

An approaching upper-air disturbance will kink the jet stream, causing a dip known as a "trough". Ahead of it, warm, humid air will waft north.

This is because the storm is weakening a bit, so the eye will soon "fill in."
Plus friction on land slows down the rate at which warm, humid air can spiral into the eyewall.

The whole city is in Gezani's eye right now!
The worst flooding will be to the left, or south, of the center. That's because the storm is in the southern hemisphere and is swirling clockwise.

A snow squall is a brief but intense burst of heavy snow and strong winds that can suddenly reduce visibility to near zero and create dangerously slick roads in just minutes.
Be safe and stay warm!

The dark blue is SNOW (a SNOW SQUALL at that) near Tampa early Sunday morning (around 2 AM).
What we normally see in Buffalo, NY seems highly likely in FLORIDA but instead of the Great Lakes, it’s the Gulf!
