Crossword Genius

Capable of an outburst? (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

fit

This clue is a double definition.

'capable' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'an outburst?' is the second definition.
(I know that fit can be written as fit)

'of' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for fit that I've seen before include "Appropriate -- not 21" , "Suitable; sudden attack" , "Adapt; well" , "Sound in body or suitable" , "Apt" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
