Good day all,

Apart from the plains, a nice little mini "supercell" storm affected Miami-Dade county in southern Florida - Thanks to some seabreeze and boundary interactions in a high CAPE environment. One nice anticyclonic funnel formed on one of the storms, clearly rotating clockwise in NW Miami. The funnel did not touch the ground, but the storm produced hail to 1".
