*TORRO defines a severe thunderstorm as producing one or more of the following:
one or more tornadoes and / or waterspouts
hail with diameter of at least 20mm
non-tornadic winds gusting to 55 mph or more at surface (but which are not part of synoptic-scale straight-line winds of such velocities)*
Florida is notable for hurricanes. Tornadoes are mostly further north and west.
