...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
Severe thunderstorms are not expected on Monday.
...Synopsis...
A broad upper level ridge will envelop much of the CONUS by Day
3/Monday. At the surface, strong surface high pressure over the
Upper Midwest will develop eastward toward the Mid-Atlantic and
northeastern U.S. This will confine richer boundary-layer moisture
to the Gulf Coast states and Carolinas, where isolated to scattered
diurnally driven thunderstorms will be possible. Poor lapse rates
will limit instability and weak shear will favor disorganized
pulse-type convection. Further west beneath the upper ridge, modest boundary-layer moisture will overspread portions of the AZ/NM and
isolated, high-based thunderstorms also will be possible.
Additional thunderstorms are possible along the central Gulf Coast
as current T.D. 19 is forecast by the National Hurricane Center to
approach the MS/AL and southeastern LA coasts Monday night into
Tuesday morning. Forecast soundings along the central Gulf Coast
appear unfavorable for tropical cyclone-related tornado activity at
this time.

...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
Severe thunderstorms are not expected on Tuesday.
...Synopsis...
Thunderstorm activity will mainly be confined to southeastern
portions of the United States on Tuesday. An upper ridge will be
maintained across the western states while an strengthening upper
trough over central Canada slowly dips southward toward the
north-central U.S. At the surface, low pressure will develop
eastward along the international border from ND/MN to the
Ontario/Quebec border by Wednesday morning. A cold front will track south/southeast late in the period across the northern Plains and
into the Upper Midwest. However, little precipitation is expected
with this system due to a rather dry airmass in place.
Across the central Gulf Coast vicinity, the National Hurricane
Center has current Tropical Storm Sally (forecast to be a hurricane
on Day 3/Tue) moving north/northwest very slowly across far
southeast LA into southern MS on Tuesday. While some tropical
cyclone-related tornado threat could develop in the northeastern
quadrant of this system across parts of southern MS and perhaps into
southern AL, uncertainty in the exact track and extent of favorable
low level wind/bouyancy fields will preclude probabilities at this
time.

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FAR SOUTHEASTERN MISSISSIPPI...SOUTHERN/CENTRAL ALABAMA...AND NORTHWESTERN FLORIDA...
...SUMMARY...
A few tornadoes associated with Tropical Cyclone Sally are possible
across portions of the north-central Gulf Coast and Deep South on
Wednesday.
...Central Gulf Coast...
Though important differences remain in latest model guidance, the
general consensus is that Tropical Cyclone Sally will migrate very
slowly inland across portions of Mississippi/Alabama through early
Thursday. Strong low-level shear will be present along and east of
the cyclone center, and a mix of convective bands and cells are also
likely to be present within that airmass. Pending development of
sufficient low-level buoyancy, a few tornadoes and damaging,
convective wind gusts are likely to occur - especially within the
Marginal area across southeastern Mississippi into Alabama. It is
entirely possible that the areas of greatest severe risk will shift
in later outlook updates pending intensity and eventual track of
Sally.

Severe thunderstorms are not expected across the continental U.S. on
Friday.
...Synopsis...
A cold front will extend from the far northwestern Atlantic
(offshore the New England coast) southwestward to northern Florida
and the northern Gulf of Mexico during the forecast period, with
much of the central and eastern U.S. under the influence of high
pressure and relatively stable low-level conditions. Deep
convection may occur in areas ahead of the front across the
Southeast where low-level moisture/buoyancy exists, though weak
shear and modest instability should keep most storms below severe
levels. A few lightning flashes may also occur with convection
ahead of a strong mid-level wave traversing the Pacific Northwest,
though sparse coverage and weak instability aloft should keep any
severe threat low in these areas through the forecast period.

...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
The severe potential associated with a tropical cyclone over the
western Gulf of Mexico appears too limited and uncertain at this
time to include low severe probabilities for Sunday across any
portion of coastal Texas.
...Synopsis and Discussion...
A tropical cyclone is forecast by the National Hurricane Center to
remain over the western Gulf of Mexico Sunday while moving slowly
westward. 00Z deterministic guidance is in general agreement with
this scenario, but considerable uncertainty exists with how close
the system will approach the TX Coast, particularly by Sunday night.
It appears possible that low-level north-northeasterly winds may
increase across this area through the period, with a corresponding
increase in low-level shear. However, greater low-level moisture
associated with this system may remain over the Gulf, limiting
inland destabilization. No severe probabilities have been included
along coastal TX given these uncertainties and potentially limiting
factors.
Farther north, an upper trough is forecast to move northeastward
from the northern Plains across parts of the Upper Midwest and into
central Canada though the period. Isolated thunderstorms may occur
Sunday across these areas along/ahead of an eastward-moving cold
front. Although steep mid-level level lapse rates should be present
across the warm sector, limited low-level moisture will likely keep
instability rather weak. Overall thunderstorm coverage is also
uncertain, as a low-level inversion may hinder convective
initiation.

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
THE MIDDLE/UPPER TEXAS COAST...
...SUMMARY...
A threat for a tornado or two may exist across parts of the
middle/upper Texas Coast on Monday in association with Tropical
Cyclone Beta.
...Coastal Texas...
Tropical Cyclone Beta is forecast by the National Hurricane Center
to approach the TX Coast as a hurricane on Monday, with a northward
turn along/near the coast Monday night. Some 00Z guidance suggests
that mid to perhaps upper 70s surface dewpoints will spread inland
across parts of the middle/upper TX Coast through the period. Strong
low-level shear should also be present, mainly in the northeastern
quadrant of Beta's circulation. With that said, there is still
considerable uncertainty regarding the placement of Beta on Monday,
and a more eastward position over the Gulf of Mexico would reduce
the chance for greater low-level moisture to move onshore and lessen
the corresponding severe potential. Even with this uncertainty,
there is enough of a signal in various deterministic guidance that a
favorable overlap of modest instability and enhanced
east-southeasterly low-level winds should occur somewhere along the middle/upper TX Coast Monday into Monday night. If this scenario
occurs, then isolated low-topped supercells in outer rain bands
capable of producing a tornado or two appear possible. 5% severe
probabilities and a Marginal Risk have therefore been included to
account for this potential.

...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
The severe potential associated with Tropical Cyclone Beta appears
too limited on Tuesday to include any severe probabilities across
southeastern Texas or Louisiana at this time.
...Southeastern Texas into Louisiana...
Tropical Storm Beta should be located along/near some portion of the
middle TX Coast Tuesday morning per latest NHC forecast. Most 00Z
guidance indicates that Beta will remain over land while slowly
weakening through the period. The low-level wind field associated
with Beta should likewise slowly diminish through Tuesday afternoon,
with southeasterly 850-mb winds around 15-25 kt across southeastern
TX and LA. The flow field should further weaken through mid levels.
The forecast vertical wind profile across this region appears quite
marginal to support organized storms. Dry low/mid-level air is also
forecast to wrap around the eastern half of Beta's circulation,
which may further hinder already weak forecast instability. At this
point, there appear to be too many limiting factors to include any
severe probabilities across southeastern TX and LA for Tuesday, but
this potential will be reevaluated in subsequent outlooks.
...Northern Plains...
Farther north, a shortwave trough embedded within mid-level westerly
flow is forecast to move eastward along the U.S./Canada border from
the Pacific Northwest to the northern Plains through the period.
Low-level moisture is forecast to remain quite meager ahead of this
feature until it reaches the vicinity of ND late Tuesday night,
where low to mid 50s surface dewpoints may be present. A modest
southerly low-level jet along with a southeastward-surging cold
front may aid convective initiation late Tuesday across northern ND
into south-central Canada. Steep mid-level lapse rates should also
be present over this region, and potential exists for mainly
elevated storms to produce some hail given the forecast combination
of weak to locally moderate instability with strong deep-layer
shear. Regardless, will defer inclusion of any severe probabilities
across northern ND for now, as guidance differs on both the degree
of low-level moisture present and overall storm coverage.

...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
Organized severe thunderstorms appear unlikely across the contiguous
United States on Wednesday.
...Lower Mississippi Valley...
Large differences are apparent between the 00Z deterministic
GFS/ECMWF and NAM regarding the placement of Tropical Cyclone Beta
on Wednesday. The NAM appears to be an outlier compared to other
guidance in bringing Beta inland across the lower MS Valley in
tandem with a weak mid-level shortwave trough. Most other guidance
suggests that Beta will remain much farther south, and perhaps even
off the LA Coast through at least Wednesday evening. Some severe
potential may exist across portions of the lower MS Valley if the
NAM solution verifies and greater low-level moisture advances
inland. However, it currently appears more likely that appreciable destabilization Wednesday afternoon will remain confined to the
immediate coastal LA region. Low-level flow across the warm sector
is also forecast to remain quite weak (generally 25 kt or less).
This weak shear should limit the severe risk across coastal LA, and
no probabilities have been included at this time.
...Upper Midwest...
A low-amplitude shortwave trough embedded within quasi-zonal
mid-level westerly flow should advance east-southeastward from the
northern Plains to the Upper Midwest through the period. Elevated
storms that may be ongoing Wednesday morning across parts of ND
should diminish through the day. Additional convection may form
along a weak surface front across parts of northern MN/WI, mainly
Wednesday evening/night. Current expectations are for this activity
to remain elevated, as limited low-level moisture and substantial
convective inhibition to the south of the front will probably limit
the potential for surface-based storms. Although some small hail
cannot be ruled out with the strong shear forecast, instability
should remain too weak to support an organized severe risk.
...Pacific Northwest...
A large-scale upper trough with strong mid-level jet should move
eastward across parts of the Pacific Northwest on Wednesday. Strong
deep-layer shear should be present, but instability is forecast to
remain quite weak. While isolated thunderstorms appear possible, the
overall severe threat should remain low owing to the limited
instability.

...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
The potential for organized severe thunderstorms on Friday across
parts of the Upper Midwest appears too uncertain to include any risk
areas at this time.
...Upper Midwest...
A strong westerly mid/upper-level jet is forecast to persist on
Friday across much of the Pacific Northwest to the northern Rockies
and north-central states. A shortwave trough embedded within this
flow regime should move eastward across the Upper Midwest through
the period. At the surface, a cold front will likewise sweep
eastward across this region, with a modest increase in low-level
moisture occurring ahead of the front across parts of eastern MN
into western WI and vicinity. At this point, most guidance suggests
that warm mid-level temperatures preceding the shortwave trough will
keep the warm sector capped through the day. Still, there is a
non-zero chance that near-surface-based storms could form along or
just ahead of the front across parts of east-central MN into
northwestern WI by Friday evening. If this occurs, then severe
thunderstorms appear possible given the forecast combination of weak instability with strong deep-layer shear. However, the more probable
scenario is for mainly elevated storms to form north of the warm
sector Friday evening/night in a low-level warm advection regime,
with a minimal severe risk farther south. Given these uncertainties
and model differences, have opted to defer possible inclusion of low
severe probabilities across this region to a later outlook.
...Southeast...
Isolated to scattered thunderstorms may occur across a broad portion
of the Southeast on Friday as a weak, positively tilted shortwave
trough moves eastward over this region. Although mid-level
southwesterly flow should be modestly enhanced, the lack of any
discernible surface low, poor mid-level lapse rates, and weak
instability all suggest that any organized severe thunderstorm risk
should remain low.

...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
The potential for organized severe thunderstorms on Saturday across
parts of the Upper Midwest appears too uncertain to include any
severe probabilities at this time.
...Synopsis and Discussion...
Large-scale upper troughing should amplify over the north-central
CONUS on Saturday. A strong west-southwesterly mid/upper-level jet
will overspread much of the Upper Midwest by Saturday evening.
Forcing for ascent preceding the upper trough should also encourage
the northeastward development of a surface low across this region
through the period. Low-level moisture will likely remain rather
limited, which should temper the amount of instability available
across the warm sector in WI. Still, strong effective bulk shear
will be present owing to the mid/upper-level jet. Current
expectations are for storm initiation to be delayed until Saturday
evening as lift increases with a strengthening low-level jet. Any
storms that form will probably remain elevated, but they could pose
some threat for hail. Primary uncertainty remains the best corridor
for this elevated storm development. Some guidance suggests storms
over northern WI into the U.P. of MI, while other models indicate a
better chance over central/eastern WI. Given this uncertainty and
the fairly limited instability forecast, will defer possible
inclusion of low severe probabilities to a later outlook update.
Elsewhere, any storms that may be ongoing Saturday morning along
parts of the East Coast should move offshore through the day, as a
weak mid-level trough continues eastward. Severe thunderstorms
appear unlikely across this region.

PORTIONS OF THE SOUTHERN PLAINS AND OZARK PLATEAU....
...SUMMARY...
Isolated hail is possible late Sunday afternoon through Sunday
evening across northern portions of the southern Plains and adjacent
Ozark Plateau.
...Synopsis and Discussion...
Overall upper pattern is forecast to undergo significant
amplification on Sunday as a strong shortwave trough digs
southeastward from the northern Rockies through the central Plains.
A cold front is expected to extend from northern Lower MI
southwestward into the northern TX Panhandle early Sunday. The
overall evolution of the upper pattern is expected to induce a southward/southeastward surge of this cold front throughout the day.
By Sunday evening, this cold front will likely extend from Lake Erie southwestward into the TX Permian Basin.
Showers and thunderstorms are anticipated along this front, from the
Upper Great Lakes into the southern Plains. Relatively warm and
moist conditions are anticipated across the southern Plains and
Ozark Plateau ahead of the front. However, warm mid-level
temperatures will likely preclude the development of open warm
sector storms. Even so, storms are anticipated along and behind the
front, particularly as it moves into the southern Plains,
interacting with more buoyancy and a strengthening low-level jet.
Progressive nature of the cold front will likely contribute to the
development of predominantly elevated storms. Moderate vertical
shear could result in a few updrafts capable of producing hail.

...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
Thunderstorms are possible along a cold front as it moves across the
southern Plains and Mississippi and Ohio Valleys.
...Synopsis...
Upper pattern will continue to amplify on Monday as troughing across
the central and eastern CONUS deepens further while gradually moving
eastward and western CONUS ridging also expands eastward. Strong
mid-level flow is forecast to exist throughout the base of this
trough, arcing from the High Plains southward into the southern
Plains and then back northeastward through the Upper Great Lakes.
Cold front along the leading edge of the continental air mass
associated with the upper trough will likely extend from
southwestern Ontario southwestward into the TX Hill Country early
Monday morning. Continued eastward/southeastward progression of this
front is forecast throughout the day, with the front expected to
extend from a low over the Lower Great Lakes region southwestward
into the northwestern Gulf of Mexico by Monday evening.
...Mid/Upper OH Valley...
Modest low-level moisture and deep southwesterly flow may contribute
to a few more robust updrafts near the cold front as it gradually
pushes eastward across the region. However, low forecast confidence
regarding the frontal position, as well as the potential for
preceding cloud cover to limit the extent of destabilization ahead
of the front, result in too much uncertainty to introduce any
probabilities with this outlook.

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PORTIONS
OF THE MID-ATLANTIC STATES...
...SUMMARY...
Isolated severe thunderstorms are possible across portions of the
Mid-Atlantic States on Monday.
...Synopsis...
A deep upper trough is forecast to extend from Quebec into the Lower
MS Valley early Tuesday morning. An upper low embedded within this
larger trough is expected to gradually move from the middle MS
Valley southeastward through the Southeast. Southerly mid-level flow
will increase ahead of this low from GA through the Mid-Atlantic.
Progression of this upper low will aid in the development of a
modest surface low along a front initially extending from the
Mid-Atlantic southwestward through the central FL Panhandle. This
surface low will likely track northeastward along the front while
the front gradually moves eastward. Some deepening of this surface
low is possible, resulting in modest moisture advection amid southerly/southeasterly surface wind.
This overall pattern evolution will place a modestly moist and
unstable air mass across the Mid-Atlantic states ahead of the
approaching cold front (and parent upper trough). Previously
mentioned strengthening low to mid-level winds ahead of the
approaching upper low atop modest southerly/southeasterly surface
winds will contribute to at least moderate vertical shear. While
some uncertainties remain, including the amount of destabilization
as well as the strength of the surface low and frontal position, the environment appears likely to support at least low severe potential.
Refinement to this outlook area are likely in subsequent forecasts.

...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
Severe thunderstorms are not currently forecast Wednesday.
...Synopsis and Discussion...
A mature upper cyclone is forecast to be centered near the AL/GA
border early Wednesday morning, within the base of broad upper
troughing covering much of the central and eastern CONUS. This upper
low is expected to move northeastward through the Carolinas
throughout the day and off the Mid-Atlantic coast early Thursday
morning. Surface low associated with this upper cyclone will likely
begin the period over SC before gradually moving northeastward off
the NC coast by Wednesday evening. Some modest low-level moisture
may be in place ahead of this low, but lapse rates will be poor and
widespread clouds and precipitation will limit heating.
Consequently, buoyancy is expected to be modest, limiting the
potential for persistent and deep updrafts. There is a low
probability that enough of a warm sector will remain onshore ahead
of the surface low, resulting in a thermodynamic environment more
supportive of severe thunderstorms. However, that scenario is not
currently supported by the most recent guidance.
Elsewhere, a stable continental air mass will be in place across
most of the central and eastern CONUS, precluding thunderstorms
development. The only exception is across the Upper Great Lakes
where cold air aloft associated with a shortwave trough moving
through the upper trough will contribute to marginal buoyancy. Upper
ridging will remain in place from central Mexico into the Pacific
Northwest.

modest instability and the potential for isolated lightning flashes,
and across southern FL, where a moist air mass remains in place.
Expansive upper ridging extending from the Pacific Northwest into

persisted throughout much of the week is expected to remain in place
on Friday. An embedded shortwave will likely move through the
Northeast by early Friday evening while another shortwave trough is
expected to drop southward through the northern Plains, reaching the
central Plains by early Saturday morning. Progression of these
shortwaves will help maintain stable conditions across much of the
central and eastern CONUS. The only exceptions are across south FL,
where modest low-level moisture may contribute to isolated
thunderstorms ahead of slow-moving front, and over the Lower Great
Lakes where cold temperatures aloft could result a flash or two.
Coverage over the Lower Great Lakes is currently expected to be less
than 10%.
Upper ridging over the western CONUS may dampen somewhat as a
compact shortwave trough moves through its northwestern periphery.
Even so, stable conditions will preclude thunderstorm development.

...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
A few strong thunderstorms are possible across northern portions of
the southern Plains on Saturday.
...Synopsis and Discussion...
A pair of shortwave troughs will likely be moving through the
southwestern periphery of the expansive upper trough over the
central and eastern CONUS early Saturday morning. The lead wave will
be over the mid MS Valley and is forecast to quickly lose amplitude
as it moves eastward across the OH Valley. The second shortwave will
likely be over the central Plains early Saturday and is expected to
move southeastward across the Lower MO Valley and into the TN Valley
throughout the day.
Progression of these shortwaves will help push a cold front
southward through much of the southern Plains by early Sunday
morning. Modest low-level moisture will advect northward ahead of
this cold front, with mid 50s dewpoints reaching into northern
portions of the southern Plains. This moisture advection combined
with boundary layer mixing and steep mid-level lapse rates will
result in modest instability and the potential for thunderstorms
along the front across OK and adjacent portions of western AR and TX
Red River vicinity. This region will be on the edge of the stronger
flow aloft, resulting in moderate vertical shear supportive of a few
stronger storms. However, modest instability is currently expected
to limit overall severe thunderstorm coverage.

...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
The risk for severe thunderstorms appears negligible across the U.S.
Sunday through Sunday night.
...Discussion...
Mid/upper flow across much of North America appears likely to
continue to trend less amplified; but, models indicate that
large-scale ridging will persist across the eastern mid-latitude
Pacific into western North America, with large-scale troughing east
of the Rockies through the Atlantic Seaboard. Embedded within this
regime, there may be several short wave perturbations comprising
more substantive troughing across the Upper Midwest into the lower
Missouri Valley at the outset of the period. This is forecast to
remain progressive, as a vigorous upstream short wave impulse digs
across the Canadian Prairies. However, models indicate that the
smaller-scale perturbations may trend out of phase. The southern
portion of the remnant troughing may become most prominent, with
perhaps the most vigorous impulse pivoting across parts of the
Ohio/Tennessee Valleys into the southern Appalachians Sunday through
Sunday night.
A reinforcing low-level cool intrusion and subsidence in the wake of
the lead mid-level troughing probably will contribute to
diminishment of initially low convective potential over the interior
U.S. Sunday. There could still be some lingering risk for
convection capable of producing lightning, beneath the mid-level
cold pool across parts of the Great Lakes and Ohio Valley into the Appalachians. However, model spread concerning the smaller-scale
mid-level perturbations is sizable. Coupled with the weak nature of
the potential instability, and probable sparse thunderstorm
coverage, any risk for thunderstorms at this point still seems less
than 10 percent.
Otherwise, seasonably moist conditions likely will remain confined
to a narrow plume along a remnant frontal zone across the
southeastern Gulf of Mexico into areas near/east of the southern Mid
Atlantic coast. This may contribute to at least low probabilities
for thunderstorms across parts of the Florida Peninsula; but, models
indicate that substantive boundary-layer moisture and instability
will remain confined to areas near and east of the
southeastern/eastern Florida Atlantic coast.

...SUMMARY...
The risk for severe thunderstorms appears negligible across the U.S.
Monday through Monday night.
...Discussion...
Models indicate that broad mid-level ridging within the mid-latitude
westerlies will develop inland of the Pacific coast, across and east
of the Canadian and northern U.S. Rockies during this period.
Downstream flow across much of the remainder of the northern and
central tier of the U.S. appears likely to remain more or less
zonal, with a number of embedded, progressive short wave troughs.
This includes one significant perturbation forecast to accelerate
east of the northern Mid Atlantic coast, and support further surface
wave development along a front across the western Atlantic.
In the wake of these features, mid-level subtropical ridging may
become a bit more prominent across Florida and the northeastern Gulf
of Mexico. In lower levels, models suggest that the surface frontal
zone will weaken and redevelop northward across the Peninsula into
northern Florida. As the boundary layer continues to moisten,
destabilization aided by daytime heating across parts of the
Peninsula may contribute to at least some potential for a few
thunderstorms Monday afternoon.
Elsewhere, generally dry and/or stable conditions are expected to
prevail, with negligible risk for thunderstorm activity.

...Discussion...
Broad, large-scale ridging appears likely to persist within the
mid-latitude westerlies across the northeastern Pacific through
western portions of the Canadian Prairies and northern U.S. Great
Plains. Models indicate that there could be some amplification of
this ridging, downstream of digging troughing. More significantly,
to the east of the ridging, a vigorous short wave impulse is
forecast to rapidly dig southeast of the Canadian Prairies, through
the upper Great Lakes region by late Tuesday night. This may be
accompanied by a 100+ kt northwesterly mid-level jet and a deepening
surface cyclone. While there will be little available low-level
moisture, destabilization beneath cold mid-level air, to the north
of the cyclonic jet, may contribute to scattered weak thunderstorm
development near the Upper Midwest/Great Lakes international border
area late Tuesday into Tuesday night.
Seasonably moist conditions likely will remain confined to areas
along and south of a persistent frontal zone approaching
northwestern Gulf coastal areas, while remaining quasi-stationary
across northern Florida into the western Atlantic. Beneath
mid-level subtropical ridging, it appears that daytime heating will
contribute to moderate boundary-layer destabilization across the
Florida Peninsula. This could support at least some potential for a
few afternoon and evening thunderstorms.

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WEDNESDAY ACROSS
MUCH OF UPSTATE NEW YORK...VERMONT...NEW HAMPSHIRE...PARTS OF
NORTHERN MASSACHUSETTS AND SOUTHERN MAINE...
...SUMMARY...
Thunderstorms may overspread parts of Upstate New York through
northern New England Wednesday afternoon and evening, accompanied by
a risk for potentially damaging wind gusts.
...Synopsis...
A seasonably strong mid/upper jet across the northern mid-latitude
Pacific appears likely to become more zonal while nosing into the
northeastern Pacific during this period. As this occurs, within
branching downstream flow across North America, another modestly
amplified, strong mid/upper jet is forecast to progress eastward
across Canada and the northern tier of the U.S. This will include
broad ridging gradually shifting east of the Canadian Rockies,
through the Canadian Prairies, and broad troughing shifting across
eastern Canada and the Northeast.
In lower latitudes, mid/upper ridging will persist across the
subtropical western Atlantic into Florida and adjacent portions of
the Southeast, with several tropical perturbations progressing
around its southern/southwestern periphery. It appears that this
will include a hurricane (currently Tropical Depression Twenty-Six)
migrating slowly northwestward across the central Gulf of Mexico,
within a plume of tropical moisture largely confined to the Gulf of
Mexico.
Within the westerlies, a strong short wave perturbation, including a
100 kt northwesterly mid-level (around 500 mb) jet streak, is
forecast to dig east-southeast of the lower Great Lakes region,
before turning eastward across New England by Wednesday night. It
appears that this will be accompanied by substantial further
deepening of a surface cyclone, across southern Quebec through the
Canadian Maritimes.
Beneath an increasingly confluent regime in the wake of the
mid-level perturbation, cold surface ridging is forecast to build
across and east of the Mississippi Valley, and southward into the
Gulf Coast states, by late Wednesday night. This will contribute to
the maintenance of dry and/or stable conditions across most areas
east of the Rockies.
...Upstate New York into northern New England...
Boundary-layer moisture within the warm sector of the surface
cyclone likely will be rather marginal for vigorous convective
development. However, thermodynamic profiles probably will become
conducive to convection capable of producing lightning, aided by
forcing for ascent and cooling to the north of the strong cyclonic
mid-level jet. Even with mixed-layer CAPE on the order of 250-500
J/kg, storms may become sufficiently strong to aid the downward
transfer of higher momentum to the surface. With model forecast
soundings indicating 40-50+ kt mean ambient flow in the lowest 5-6
km AGL, at least a few gusts exceeding severe limits appear
possible. This may commence on the nose of a developing mid-level
dry slot east of Lake Ontario Wednesday afternoon, before spreading
eastward across parts of northern New England by Wednesday evening.

...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
The risk for thunderstorms appears negligible across much of the
nation Thursday through Thursday night.
...Discussion...
A strong, zonal mid/upper jet appears likely to continue gradually
propagating across the northern mid-latitude Pacific, with its exit
region perhaps approaching British Columbia/Pacific Northwest
coastal areas toward the end of the period. Within one belt of
branching downstream flow, broad mid-level ridging is forecast to
gradually shift eastward across the Canadian Prairies and adjacent international border area, while similar amplitude downstream
troughing progresses across the northern Atlantic coast.
In another branch, a short wave trough and compact embedded
mid-level low may approach northern California coastal areas, with
broad downstream ridging across the Great Basin and Rockies into
Upper Midwest remaining largely in phase with the ridging to the
north.
In lower latitudes, mid/upper subtropical ridging likely will be
maintained across the western Atlantic into the Gulf of Mexico and
adjacent portions of the Southeast. While weak troughing may begin
progressing around its northwestern periphery, across the Rio Grande
Valley into Texas, a couple of tropical perturbations will continue
progressing within the lower-level easterlies on its
southern/southwestern periphery. This will include Hurricane Delta,
which may gradually turn north/northeastward, toward the north
central Gulf coast, ahead of the mid/upper troughing.
At least some model output appears weaker with cold surface ridging
initially encompassing most areas across and east of the Mississippi
Valley, including much of the Gulf Coast states, at the outset of
the period. However, this feature is forecast to be generally
maintained through the period, though with its center shifting from
the Middle Mississippi Valley vicinity into the Mid Atlantic.
Easterly/northeasterly low-level flow likely will maintain
relatively dry/potentially cool boundary-layer air across much of
the Gulf Coast states. While there may be a substantive elevated
moisture influx ahead of Delta, accompanied by increasing
precipitation and embedded convection across much of Louisiana,
Mississippi and Alabama Thursday through Thursday night, warm and
moist mid-levels with weak lapse rates are expected to minimize the
risk for lightning.

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS LATE FRIDAY INTO
FRIDAY NIGHT ACROSS PARTS OF SOUTHEASTERN LOUISIANA...SOUTHERN
MISSISSIPPI AND SOUTHWESTERN ALABAMA...
...SUMMARY...
At least some risk for tornadoes may accompany the landfall of
Hurricane Delta, across parts of the southeastern Louisiana,
southern Mississippi and southwestern Alabama coastal plain, mainly
Friday night.
...Synopsis...
Amplification within the westerlies across the mid-latitude Pacific
into North America may commence during this period. This may
include a digging mid-level trough to the west of the Pacific
Northwest coast, and building large-scale ridging across the
Canadian/U.S. Rockies through the Canadian Prairies and much of the
Great Plains. In a lingering branch split off to the south of the
stronger flow, weaker mid-level troughing is forecast to shift into
the Southwest, perhaps with an embedded closed low migrating into
southern California by late Friday night.
Downstream, Hurricane Delta is forecast to accelerate
north-northeastward, inland of the northwestern Gulf coast by Friday
evening, with the mid-level circulation center gradually becoming
absorbed within weak troughing slowly shifting east of the southern
Great Plains. This probably will be accompanied by the influx of
seasonably high precipitable water content within a plume across and
just east of the lower Mississippi Valley. However, relatively dry/ potentially cool boundary-layer air as far south as the Gulf coastal
plain early Friday may be slow to substantively modify.
...Gulf Coast...
Latest model output generally suggests that surface dew points near
or just above 70F may initially be confined to immediate coastal
areas, perhaps inland some across parts of southeastern Louisiana,
to the north of Hurricane Delta at the outset of the period. Across
the remainder of the Gulf coastal plain, surface dew points may
generally be in the mid/upper 60s F, with mid 70s+ F mostly well
offshore across the western Gulf of Mexico. Given the warm
mid-level environment advecting inland with Delta, mid 70s F surface
dew points will probably need to be advected inland to contribute to
sufficient boundary-layer destabilization to support an appreciable
risk for tornadoes, northeast and east of the inland migrating
low-level circulation center. At this time, most guidance suggests
that lower 70s F dew points may be advected inland in a small/narrow
plume wrapping into the circulation center, across parts of
southeastern Louisiana, southern Mississippi and adjacent
southwestern Alabama, with mid 70s F dew points lagging near/south
of immediate coastal areas. Given the forecast strength of the
system as it approaches landfall, it is possible that this is
underdone, but the risk for tornadoes with Delta still seems largely conditional at this time.

MUCH OF NORTHERN AND CENTRAL MISSISSIPPI AND ALABAMA...AND ADJACENT
PORTIONS OF SOUTHERN TENNESSEE...AS WELL AS ACROSS MUCH OF UPSTATE
NEW YORK INTO NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND...
...SUMMARY...
The weakening remnants of Delta may continue to contribute to a risk
for a couple of tornadoes and strong wind gusts across parts of the
central Gulf Coast states on Saturday. Strong thunderstorms may
also impact Upstate New York into portions of northern New England,
posing at least some risk for severe wind and hail.
...Synopsis...
A belt of westerlies emanating from the mid-latitude Pacific appears
likely to become increasingly amplified across Canada and the
northern tier of the U.S. through this period. This appears likely
to include a digging mid-level trough inland of the Pacific coast
and across the northern intermountain region, accompanied by surface cyclogenesis within deepening surface troughing to the lee of the Canadian/northern U.S. Rockies by late Saturday night.
Downstream troughing is also forecast to amplify to the east and
southeast of Hudson Bay, with a lead embedded short wave trough
digging across southern Quebec into the Canadian Maritimes. This is
forecast to be accompanied by a deep surface cyclone, with another
cold front advancing across New York state and New England by the
end of the period.
Within a weaker branch of westerlies across the southern tier of the
U.S., mid-level troughing, including the remnants of Delta, likely
will continue to slowly shift east-northeast of the lower
Mississippi Valley. Most guidance indicates substantial rapid
weakening of the associated surface cyclone as it migrates
northeastward out of northeastern Louisiana through northwestern
Mississippi.
...Lower Mississippi to Tennessee Valley vicinity...
An initially narrow plume of lower 70s surface dew points, wrapping
into the low-level circulation center of Delta, may broaden
northeastward across much of Mississippi and Alabama through the
day. This is where the strongest southerly 850 mb flow will
contribute to large clockwise-curved low-level hodographs most
conducive to tornado potential. However, the extent of this
potential Saturday remains unclear, as the peak wind fields weaken,
and warm mid-levels limit boundary-layer destabilization. Still,
there may be a window of opportunity for sufficient warming to
destabilize the boundary layer before low-level wind fields weaken
and hodographs shrink too much, to allow the environment to become
conducive to a few low-topped supercells capable of producing
tornadoes and locally strong surface gusts.
...Upstate New York into northern New England...
To the south of the digging short wave impulse, models suggest that
a narrow plume of warm elevated mixed-layer air may advect into the
region by the beginning of the period, as boundary-layer moistening
proceeds ahead of a southeastward advancing cold front. The NAM
appears most aggressive with this moistening, and it may be too
moist. However, there appears potential for sufficient pre-frontal boundary-layer destabilization, with daytime heating, to support at
least scattered thunderstorm development by Saturday afternoon.
Near the southeastern periphery of the digging mid-level trough,
30-50+ kt flow in the 850-500 mb layer may contribute to the risk
for organized storms capable of producing potentially damaging wind
gusts and marginally severe hail.

...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
THE NORTHERN PLAINS/UPPER MIDWEST...
...SUMMARY...
Isolated strong to severe thunderstorms may occur Sunday across
parts of the northern Plains into the Upper Midwest, with marginally
severe thunderstorms also possible across parts of the Southeast.
...Northern Plains/Upper Midwest...
A large-scale upper trough over western Canada and the northern
Rockies should further amplify on Sunday across parts of the
northern Plains while gradually acquiring a negative tilt by Sunday
night. At the surface, a strong cold front is forecast to sweep east-southeastward from the northern/central Plains into the Upper
Midwest through the period in tandem with the amplifying upper
trough. Limited low-level moisture return is expected ahead of this
advancing cold front, and a low-level inversion may inhibit
convective development along the front through much of the day.
Still, some potential for storms remains evident from parts of far
eastern ND/SD into MN and perhaps parts of IA late Sunday afternoon
and continuing into the evening. Strong deep-layer shear will be
present across this region, which may act to organize any storms
that can develop and subsequently grow upscale along the cold front.
Isolated severe wind gusts will probably be the main threat through
Sunday evening given a mainly linear mode expected, although some
large hail may also occur early in the convective life cycle given
the presence of steep mid-level lapse rates. Storms should weaken
with eastward extent across the Upper Midwest late Sunday as they
outrun the modest forecast instability.
...Southeast...
The remnants of Delta are forecast to move northeastward across
parts of the TN Valley on Sunday. Modestly enhanced mid-level south-southwesterly winds will remain across parts of the Southeast
as a surface warm front lifts slowly northward across parts of the
Carolinas. There appears to be enough veering/strengthening of winds
with height to support modestly organized storms across the warm
sector, with weak to locally moderate instability also forecast.
Isolated strong/gusty winds appear to be the main threat, although a
brief tornado cannot be ruled out.

...Great Lakes/Midwest...
A negatively tilted upper-level trough will continue to move
east-northeastward across the Midwest and Great Lakes on Monday. A
surface cold front will also move eastward over these regions.
Although strong mid-level flow will be present with the upper
trough, low-level moisture return ahead of the cold front is
forecast to remain fairly modest. Generally poor mid-level lapse
rates are also expected to limit instability, especially with
northward extent across the Great Lakes. Still, isolated storm
development along the cold front may occur by Monday afternoon,
particularly with southward extent into parts of the OH Valley.
Regardless, organized severe storms capable of producing
strong/gusty winds appear unlikely at this time owing to the meager surface-based instability forecast.
...Coastal Virginia/North Carolina...
A weak, low-amplitude shortwave trough should advance eastward from
VA/NC off the East Coast by Monday afternoon. Isolated showers and thunderstorms may be ongoing Monday morning across parts of coastal
VA/NC in a weak low-level warm advection regime, and this activity
should move offshore through the day. The potential for organized
severe storms across this region currently appears low owing to weak instability and modest deep-layer shear.

Farther west, a westerly mid/upper-level jet should advance eastward
over parts of the Pacific Northwest through the period. Cool
mid-level temperatures and ascent associated with this jet may
support meager instability and perhaps isolated, low-topped storms
capable of producing occasional lightning. Even though deep-layer
shear will be strong, severe storms are not expected owing to the
very marginal instability. Otherwise, thunderstorms are not forecast
across the remainder of the CONUS, as dry and/or stable conditions

moisture return may occur across parts of the southern Plains and
Southeast ahead of the front. However, capping across the southern
Plains will likely prohibit convective development, while negligible
ascent and poor mid-level lapse rates should limit thunderstorm
potential across the Southeast. Thunderstorms also appear unlikely
across the Upper Midwest/Great Lakes in advance of the developing
upper trough, as instability is forecast to be very meager.

A large-scale upper trough should amplify further on Thursday as it
moves slowly eastward across the central/eastern CONUS. A surface
low initially in the vicinity of southern Ontario should continue
developing to the northeast into Quebec, with a trailing cold front
moving east-southeastward over much of the central/eastern states.
Mainly elevated convection appears possible on an isolated basis
along/ahead of the front across parts of TX/AR/LA through Thursday
night, although instability and deep-layer shear should remain weak
across these areas. Other isolated storms may occur late Thursday
night across parts of GA and SC, where low-level moisture will
modestly increase as ascent associated with the approaching upper
trough overspreads this region. A few storms may also develop across
parts of south FL and the Keys along sea breeze boundaries as
low-level moisture increases through the period.

...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
Organized severe thunderstorms appear unlikely across the contiguous
United States on Friday.
...Synopsis and Discussion...
A large-scale upper trough should develop east-northeastward from
the MS Valley vicinity across the eastern states on Friday. At the
surface, a cold front stretching from GA to the Mid-Atlantic is
forecast to move east-southeastward. A weak surface low should
develop from parts of the Carolinas to southern New England by the
end of the period. Although some increase in low-level moisture is
forecast ahead of the cold front, forecast soundings from various
guidance indicate mid-level lapse rates should remain particularly
poor. This will probably limit updraft strength/intensity, even as
mid-level southwesterly winds and related deep-layer shear slowly
increase through the day across portions of the central/eastern
Carolinas and vicinity. Have opted to not include low severe
probabilities across this region at this time, as the forecast poor
mid-level lapse rates and a low-level inversion suggest limited
severe wind potential. Otherwise, isolated thunderstorms may occur
ahead of the front across parts of the East Coast from FL to VA, and
in a low-level warm advection regime late Friday night cross
portions of southern New England.

...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
Organized severe thunderstorms are not expected across the
contiguous United States on Saturday.
...Synopsis and Discussion...
A highly amplified upper trough should move northeastward across New
England on Saturday. Strong low-level warm advection ahead of this
feature may support a couple elevated storms across parts of the
immediate New England coast through the early afternoon, but
instability is expected to remain rather weak.
Farther south, convection may develop along sea breeze boundaries
across parts of the central/southern FL Peninsula. A decelerating
cold front across this region will likely serve as the northern
delimiter of thunderstorm potential. Weak deep-layer shear should
preclude an organized severe risk.
Low-level moisture is forecast to increase Saturday night across the
southern Plains and perhaps lower MS Valley as another shortwave
trough embedded within embedded within west-northwesterly mid-level
flow advances eastward from the northern/central Plains into the
Upper Midwest/Great Lakes. However, elevated thunderstorm potential
appears highly uncertain, so have not included a general
thunderstorm area at this time.

...DISCUSSION...
West-southwesterly mid-level flow will be in place on Wednesday from
the Rockies eastward to the Great Lakes. At the surface, high
pressure will dominate the Great Lakes and Ohio Valley as moisture
returns northward into the central Plains and mid Mississippi
Valley. Scattered thunderstorms will be possible from late Wednesday
afternoon into the overnight period as low-level flow increases
along the northern edge of the moist sector from the central Plains
to the southwestern Great Lakes. Isolated thunderstorms will also be
possible from parts of the southern Plains eastward across the Gulf
Coast States. A few storms may also develop from northeast Ohio into northwestern New England. The combination of instability and shear
across the continental United States appears insufficient for a
severe threat on Wednesday and Wednesday night.

...SUMMARY...
Thunderstorms associated with marginally severe hail and strong wind
gusts will be possible in the Upper Midwest Thursday evening.
...Upper Midwest...
An upper-level trough will move into the Rockies on Thursday as
southwest mid-level flow becomes established from the Great Plains
to the Great Lakes. At the surface, a strong cold front will advance
quickly southeastward across the central Plains and Upper Midwest.
Ahead of the front, surface dewpoints should reach the lower to mid
60s F which will contribute to the development of a narrow corridor
of instability during the late afternoon. As low-level convergence
increases along the front during the early evening, thunderstorms
are expected to develop. SBCAPE in the 1000 to 1500 J/kg range and
0-6 km shear in the 35 to 45 kt range should be sufficient for an
isolated severe threat mainly from northwest Missouri into southwest
Wisconsin. Hail and a few severe wind gusts will be possible with
the stronger cells. However, most of the convection is expected to
develop just behind the front where instability will be quite a bit
weaker. For this reason, any severe threat should remain marginal
Tuesday evening.

...SUMMARY...
Organized severe thunderstorms are not currently forecast across the
contiguous U.S. on Sunday.
...Synopsis...
A positive-tilt, mid-level trough will amplify over the western
states as a potent disturbance moves equatorward along the West
Coast on Sunday through Sunday night. A belt of strong
southwesterly mid-level flow will extend from the Four Corners
northeastward across the central Great Plains and into the Great
Lakes. In the low levels, a cold front initially over the northern
TX Panhandle will surge southward through central TX and near the
OK-TX-AR border by daybreak Monday.
Showers and isolated to widely scattered thunderstorms are forecast
from TX northeastward into the southern Great Lakes during the Day-3
period. However, it appears the onset of weak instability
translating to shower/thunderstorm potential will primarily occur
late Sunday into Sunday night immediately on or behind the surface
front. Although a few brief stronger storms cannot be ruled out
(western Ozark Plateau), it appears the risk for organized severe
storms will be limited.
Elsewhere, a few weak thunderstorms are possible during the
afternoon in the vicinity of the southern Appalachians in the
central and southern FL Peninsula.

Severe thunderstorms are not currently forecast across the

...Synopsis...
A closed mid-level low will migrate slowly eastward from southern AZ
to far west TX during the day 3 period. In the low levels, a cold
front draped from deep south TX northeast along the TX coast and
into the LA, will feature an unseasonably cool airmass to its
northwest over the central and southern Great Plains. A developing
tropical cyclone is forecast to move into the central Gulf of Mexico
during the day. As the tropical cyclone gradually approaches the
mouth of the MS River (see the latest National Hurricane Center
forecasts for the expected track and timing information), a maritime
tropical airmass will slowly advance northward in the lower MS
Valley. The gradually destabilizing airmass over the Gulf coastal
plain will become more favorable for isolated thunderstorms to
develop on the outer periphery of the tropical cyclone. The
expected strengthening of the wind field that would support a
conditional risk for rotating storms near the mouth of the MS River,
will probably not occur until after dawn Wednesday.

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PORTIONS OF
THE CENTRAL GULF COAST STATES...
...SUMMARY...
A risk for thunderstorms potentially capable of damaging gusts
and/or a tornado is most probable over parts of the central Gulf
Coast states on Wednesday and Wednesday night in association with
Zeta.
...Synopsis...
A mid-level low will move eastward from eastern NM into OK while
tropical cyclone Zeta makes landfall on the central Gulf Coast.
Zeta will move north, then northeast and merge with the baroclinic
regime over the lower MS Valley. Refer to the National Hurricane
Center forecasts for the latest track updates.
The potential for severe is focused on the inland penetration of a
tropical airmass into the coastal plain of the central Gulf Coast
states. At this point, the severe forecast is subject to
potentially large spatial adjustments based on large uncertainty in
the eventual track of tropical cyclone Zeta. Zeta is forecast to
move ashore and subsequently accelerate northeast across parts of
the South late Wednesday night. However, it seems plausible at this
point for highlighting the central Gulf Coast with potential tornado/damaging-gust hazards. Hodographs will enlarge during the
day and sufficient buoyancy will likely develop near the coast and
gradually spread inland into interior AL overnight.
Elsewhere, isolated elevated thunderstorms are possible farther west
over the southern Great Plains and farther north in the OH Valley
late.

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PARTS OF THE
SOUTHEAST AND VIRGINIA...
...SUMMARY...
A conditional risk for a tornado may exist Thursday morning for
adjacent parts of Alabama, Georgia, and the Florida Panhandle in
association with tropical cyclone Zeta. An isolated threat for
damaging thunderstorm gusts may develop over the Carolinas and
southern Virginia Thursday night.
...Synopsis...
A fairly complex scenario with relative higher uncertainty is
forecast for the day 3 period over the Southeast into the Carolinas
and VA. Tropical cyclone Zeta will move from the AL/GA vicinity
west of Atlanta and accelerate rapidly northeastward reaching
Chesapeake Bay by early Thursday evening according to the latest
National Hurricane Center forecast. The risk for a tornado may
linger during the morning from parts of the FL Panhandle
northeastward into central GA before low-level flow veers as Zeta
becomes increasingly displaced from the region. Only marginal
instability is expected to penetrate the areas north of the
immediate coastal counties with less-available instability farther
north into southwest GA. Nonetheless, a conditional risk for a
supercell or two capable of a tornado could continue from the late
Day 2 period into Day 3 across this region.
By early evening, a mid-level low will open and feature a
strengthening jet (100 kt at 500 mb) moving from northern AL
northeastward across the Carolinas into southeast VA by early Friday
morning. Significant mid-level height falls (120-180 m at 500 mb)
will overspread central NC Thursday night. Concurrently, a cold
front is forecast to sweep eastward across the southern Appalachians
with intensifying frontal forcing in lee of the higher terrain.
Model guidance currently indicates a moist boundary layer will
become conditionally unstable with a cluster or band of storms
potentially developing after dark. The transport of higher momentum
aloft to the surface could materialize with a risk for damaging
gusts.

AMENDED TO ADD DISCUSSION ABOUT TROPICAL SYSTEM ETA
...SUMMARY...
Low-end tornado risk could evolve late in the period with the
arrival of tropical system ETA to the Florida Keys vicinity.
...DISCUSSION...
A upper-level low pressure system will move slowly across the
western U.S. on Sunday as flow remains south-southwesterly across
the central states. Moisture return will take place across the
southern Plains and Arklatex as a strong low-level jet develops in
the Great Plains. Elevated thunderstorms will be possible on the
western edge of the low-level jet Sunday night from the Texas
Panhandle north-northeastward into the northern Plains and mid
Missouri Valley. Other thunderstorms will be possible across
southern sections of the Atlantic Seaboard, with some tornado risk
possibly evolving over southern Florida and the Keys, late in the
period.
...Southern Florida and the Florida Keys...
Latest NHC forecasts show Tropical Depression ETA -- currently just
east of Belize -- moving northeastward with time. The storm is
forecast to strengthen to tropical-storm strength, and should reach
Cuba by Sunday morning -- i.e. the start of the Day 3 period.
Current forecasts then depict the storm taking a
northward/northwestward turn, reaching the Florida Keys vicinity by
12Z Monday.
Based on the current track forecast, strong low-level easterly flow
would spread northward toward -- and eventually into -- south
Florida Sunday, with 0-1 shear potentially becoming supportive of
low-level rotation in cellular convection through latter stages of
the period. While uncertainty precludes introduction of a risk area
at this time, a low-probability tornado risk area will be considered
in the next outlook update, north and northeast of the forecast
track of the system.

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM PARTS OF
THE SOUTHERN PLAINS TO THE MID MISSOURI VALLEY...
...SUMMARY...
Thunderstorms associated with hail and strong wind gusts will be
possible on Monday from parts of the southern Plains into the mid
Missouri Valley.
...Southern and Central Plains/Mid Missouri Valley...
An upper-level trough will move through the Desert Southwest on
Monday as southwest mid-level flow remains in place across the
central U.S. At the surface, a cold front will advance
east-southeastward into the mid Missouri Valley and central Plains.
A moist airmass will be located ahead of the front with surface
dewpoints possibly reaching the lower 60s F from eastern Kansas into
eastern Oklahoma. As weak destabilization occurs during the day
along and just ahead of the front, thunderstorm development is
expected. Thunderstorm coverage is forecast to increase from late
afternoon into the evening as a line of storms moves eastward across
western Iowa, southeast Nebraska and central Kansas. More isolated
development could occur southward into western Oklahoma. Although
strong deep-layer shear will be in place, SBCAPE is forecast to
remain below 500 J/kg in most areas. For this reason, any severe
threat is expected to be marginal. Hail and gusty winds will be the
primary threats.
...South Florida/Florida Peninsula...
The National Hurricane Center is forecasting Tropical Depression Eta
to strengthen and become a Tropical Storm today. The system is
forecast to move northward to near the Florida Keys by early Monday
morning. At that time, rainbands associated with Eta will likely be
in the Florida Keys and across south Florida. Forecast soundings
Monday morning in south Florida show veering winds with height in
the lowest 3 km above ground level and have strong speed shear in
the boundary layer. As a result, 0-1 km shear is forecast to be near
35 kt which will support storm rotation with discrete cells in the
rainbands of Eta. Tropical Storm Eta is forecast to move
west-northwestward into the eastern Gulf of Mexico during the day on
Monday suggesting any tornado potential that develops could
gradually diminish across south Florida by Monday evening. At this
time, forecast tornado probabilities are too low to add a
categorical risk area.

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
THE SOUTHERN PLAINS AND OZARKS NORTHEASTWARD INTO THE MID TO UPPER
MISSISSIPPI VALLEY...
...SUMMARY...
Thunderstorms associated with strong wind gusts and hail will be
possible on Tuesday across parts of the southern Plains and Ozarks northeastward into the mid to upper Mississippi Valley.
...Southern Plains/Ozarks/Mid to Upper Mississippi Valley...
An upper-level trough is forecast to move quickly northeastward
across the southern and central Plains on Tuesday as a cold front
advances eastward into the Ozarks and Arklatex. Moisture advection
will take place ahead of the front with surface dewpoints likely
reaching the lower 60s F across a large parts of the Ozarks and mid
Mississippi Valley. At the start of the period, thunderstorms appear
likely to be ongoing from central Oklahoma northeastward into
northern Missouri. The models suggest that the line will move east-northeastward into the Ozarks and mid to upper Mississippi
Valley during the day. Instability is forecast to peak around
midday, when some solutions have SBCAPE reaching the 500 to 800 J/kg
range. This combined with strong deep-layer shear of 60 to 80 kt
should be sufficient for an isolated severe threat. The stronger
cells embedded in the line could produce strong wind gusts. Hail
will be possible with cells that form in areas that destabilize the
most. Due to abundant cloud cover and relatively cool surface
temperatures, instability is expected to remain weak, keeping any
severe threat that develops marginal.

No severe thunderstorms are expected across the continental United
States Wednesday or Wednesday night.
...DISCUSSION...
An upper-level trough is forecast to move from the Intermountain
West into the Rockies on Wednesday as southwest mid-level flow
remains established from the Great Plains to the Eastern Seaboard.
At the surface, a cold front is forecast to advance southeastward
into the Appalachians. Weak instability appears likely to develop
ahead of the front across parts of the Southeast and Carolinas.
Scattered thunderstorms will be possible along and ahead of the
front during the day on Wednesday. Instability is forecast to be too
weak for a severe threat. Elsewhere across the continental United
States, thunderstorm development is not expected Wednesday or
Wednesday night.

...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
Severe storms are unlikely across the CONUS on Thursday.
...Synopsis and Discussion...
An expansive belt of moderate to strong southwest flow aloft will
stretch from Baja CA into the Northeast, with a leading
low-amplitude trough moving east across the upper MS Valley and
Great Lakes. To the west, a larger upper trough will amplify along
the West Coast into Friday morning, with a significant speed max
diving southeast along the Pacific Coast.
At the surface, cooler air will push south across the Mid Atlantic
as high pressure spreads eastward across New England. A weak surface
trough will exist across the Carolinas, GA and into the eastern Gulf
of Mexico to TS Eta, and will support periodic showers and
thunderstorms during the day.
To the west, although a cold front will approach coastal WA, OR and
northern CA late in the day, forecast soundings indicate little if
any instability will be present over land to support thunderstorms.
Elsewhere, Tropical Storm Eta is forecast to continue slowly
northward across the eastern Gulf Of Mexico, perhaps resulting in
enhanced wind shear along the west coast of FL.
...Mid Atlantic...
Large-scale ascent will be maximized early in the day Thursday with
a 40 kt southwesterly low-level jet in place beneath the
right-entrance region of an upper jet. This setup will wane rather
quickly during the day, with decreased lift and veering low-level
winds. Widespread upper 60s F dewpoints and sufficient instability
may support a few diurnal storms, but most of the activity is
expected to be concentrated in the morning. Given moderate mean wind
speeds below 700 mb, a few strong wind gusts cannot be ruled out.
...FL...
Warm air aloft associated with TS Eta along with very little heating
will again yield poor-lapse rate soundings, with weak SBCAPE despite
low 70s F surface dewpoints. In addition, the bulk of the enhanced
low-level shear is likely to remain offshore, further minimizing
tornado risk.

...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
Severe thunderstorms are not expected Friday or Friday night.
...Synopsis...
A progressive mid/upper-level pattern will be in place on Friday,
with several shortwave troughs migrating through larger-scale, broad
trough encompassing much of the CONUS. One such mid/upper shortwave
will deepen over the western states and eject eastward across the
Rockies and into the Plains by early Saturday morning. Strong
southwesterly low level flow ahead of this features will overspread
the southern/central Plains to the mid-MS Valley. Modest moisture
transport will occur, bringing mainly 40s and 50s F surface
dewpoints into parts of northwest TX, OK and perhaps the Ozarks. As
a low-level jet increases during the evening, warm advection atop a
cooler near-surface boundary layer and steepening midlevel lapse
rates should suffice for isolated thunderstorm development from
parts of the southern Plains into Missouri, but severe potential
will be limited by weak instability and the elevated nature of
convection.
Further east, what remains of current Tropical Storm Eta is forecast
by the National Hurricane Center to be near northern FL or southeast
GA on Friday and likely beginning the transition from tropical to
extratropical as it interacts with a cold front stalled near the
Southeast coast. Isolated thunderstorms are possible from the
eastern Carolinas into portions of FL where any stronger heating can
occur, resulting in enough destabilization for sustained updrafts.
Given the expected location of Eta at that time, tropical cyclone
tornado activity does not appear to be a concern, and severe
potential is low at this time.

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS EASTERN OKLAHOMA/OZARKS/ARKLATEX...
...SUMMARY...
Isolated severe thunderstorms may occur across eastern Oklahoma and
the Ozarks/Ark-La-Tex regions late Saturday afternoon and night.
...Synopsis...
Large-scale trough amplification is likely to occur over the
northern/central Rockies toward the Upper Midwest and Middle/Lower
Missouri Valley Saturday and Saturday night. Primary surface
cyclogenesis is expected to occur over the Upper Midwest, with
modest-caliber low-level moisture steadily advecting
north-northeastward in advance of an eastward-moving cold front.
...Eastern Oklahoma/Ozarks/ArkLaTex...
It is probable that low/some middle 60s F surface dewpoints will
develop northward into the region by late Saturday afternoon and
Saturday night in advance of the east/southeastward-moving cold
front. Early day convection is a point of uncertainty and potential
limitation, particularly regarding the northward extent of modest
later-day destabilization. As compared to the 00Z NAM/GFS, the 00Z
ECMWF (and semi-consistent prior runs) features notably stronger
cyclogenesis farther south across Missouri/Iowa toward the
middle/upper Mississippi Valley, with higher moisture content and
somewhat greater available instability (albeit modest overall)
across this region. Regardless, it would appear that at least some severe-weather potential will exist across the region late Saturday
afternoon, and more so Saturday evening. While moisture/buoyancy
details are not clear, hodographs would support the potential for
fast-moving semi-discrete supercells and linear segments where
adequate destabilization does occur, with a corresponding potential
for damaging winds along with a tornado risk. This severe potential
currently appears most probable across eastern Oklahoma/far
northeast Texas into Arkansas and southern Missouri.

...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
Although organized severe-weather potential is currently expected to
remain minimal on Sunday, a few thunderstorms with gusty winds may
occur over parts of the Upper Ohio Valley and Northeast States.
...Synopsis...
An upper trough over the Upper Mississippi Valley/Great Lakes Sunday
morning is expected to quickly spread east-northeastward over
Ontario/Quebec and the Northeast States through Sunday night. An
associated cold front will race generally eastward over the eastern
third of the CONUS.
...Upper Ohio Valley/Northeast States...
Scattered to numerous showers and possibly a few thunderstorms are
likely to be ongoing Sunday morning across the Upper Ohio Valley and
Great Lakes near/ahead of a fast-moving cold front. This convection
will quickly transition east-northeastward across the region during
the day. In the presence of minimal low-level moisture and limited
buoyancy (100-200 J/kg MUCAPE at most), various model forecast
soundings suggest that buoyancy depth will tend to be too shallow
for charge separation, although thermodynamic profiles may be
conducive for localized/isolated lightning flashes in the presence
of strong forcing for ascent. While organized severe thunderstorms
are not currently expected, the potential does exist for some
convectively enhanced wind gusts as modest diurnal heating occurs
coincident with very strong (50+ kt) west-southwesterly winds within
the lowest 1-2 km AGL.
...Coastal Texas to Southeast States/Florida...
These areas will be located well to the south of more appreciable
height falls/forcing for ascent, although corridors of weak
convection may occur near the southeast-moving cold front. Forecast
soundings for areas such as coastal Texas and the Florida
Peninsula/nearby Southeast States generally reflect poor mid-level
lapse rates and a persistent inversion aloft. Thus, the potential
for thunderstorms currently appears low (less than 10 percent).

...SUMMARY...
Severe thunderstorms are not expected Monday and Monday night.
...Synopsis...
An amplified but semi-progressive mid/upper level pattern will exist
across the CONUS on Monday. An upper trough over the western states
will shift eastward across the Rockies as a shortwave trough
develops southeastward into the Pacific Northwest by Tuesday
morning. Further east, a mid/upper shortwave trough over the
northern Plains will intensify as it ejects eastward across the
Upper Midwest and Great Lakes. Surface high pressure will persist
across much of the West and southeastern states, but low pressure
will develop across the Upper Midwest and Great Lakes in association
with the deepening mid/upper shortwave trough. This will bring a
reinforcing cold front and shot of cooler weather across this
region. Convection with this frontal system appear unlikely given a
dearth of boundary-layer moisture will be left behind in the wake of
a cold frontal passage in the Days 1/2-Sat/Sun period.
The stalled remains of the cold front from the Days 1/2 will be
draped across the FL Peninsula on Monday. Dewpoints in the upper 60s
and low 70s a modest heating will result in weak instability and
isolated thunderstorms are possible as the front slowly sags
southward through the period. Weak overall thermodynamic and
kinematic fields will preclude any organized severe threat.

The upper-level pattern will remain amplified but progressive over

upper ridging and surface high pressure prevail over the Plains and
Midwest.
As a cold front continues to settle southward, thermodynamic
profiles may marginally support a few thunderstorms near the far
southern Florida Peninsula and Florida Keys.
In the West, isolated thunderstorms will also be possible across
coastal portions of Washington/Oregon and northern California in
association with steepening lapse rates/weak buoyancy related to an inland-advancing shortwave trough and associated frontal band. While
organized severe thunderstorms are not currently expected, a few
stronger storms capable of gusty winds and small hail cannot be
ruled out.

...SUMMARY...
Severe thunderstorms are not expected on Wednesday or Wednesday
night.
...Synopsis...
A somewhat amplified but progressive mid/upper-level pattern will
exist over the CONUS on Wednesday. The period will begin with an
amplified upper ridge oriented from the Upper Midwest to the
south-central states. Upper-level troughs will flank either side of
the ridge, oriented near the Pacific and Atlantic coasts. As the
Pacific trough shifts east, the upper ridge will deamplify as it
migrates eastward across the eastern U.S., and overall upper flow
pattern will become quasi-zonal.
Strong surface high pressure east of the Mississippi River will
maintain dry and stable conditions with little thunderstorm activity
expected. A weak surface lee trough will develop over the central
and southern Plains after 00z, resulting in modest Gulf return flow
across Texas and perhaps into Oklahoma, though instability will be
too meager and moisture too shallow to support any thunderstorm
activity in this weak WAA regime. Isolated thunderstorms are
possible near the Pacific Northwest coast from WA/OR into northeast
CA ahead of a weak front moving onshore early in the period. Cold
temperatures aloft will result in steep lapse rates and weak, albeit
sufficient instability supporting sporadic lightning flashes. As the
upper trough weakens and shifts east with time, thunderstorm
activity should diminish into the evening/overnight hours. Weak
instability and modest shear will preclude severe thunderstorm
concerns.

Severe thunderstorms are not expected on Thursday.
...Synopsis...
A quasi-zonal upper-level pattern will become somewhat more
amplified over the western states by the end of the forecast period.
A series of mid/upper shortwave impulses will migrate across the
Pacific Northwest and dig southward along the CA coast, resulting in
the development of a larger-scale trough. Further east, high
pressure both aloft and at the surface will persist across the
southeast and eastern U.S. This will result in dry and stable
conditions for much of the CONUS east of the MS River.
As the aforementioned trough becomes better defined in the west, a
weak surface lee trough will develop over the Plains. This will
allow for modest Gulf return flow spreading northward across TX into southern/central Plains vicinity, and surface dewpoints may climb
into the low 50s as far north as OK/KS after 00z. A stout inversion
around 850 mb will preclude surface-based instability, while warm
temperatures aloft and poor midlevel lapse rates further preclude
thunderstorm activity in this weak warm advection regime.

Organized severe thunderstorms are not expected on Friday or Friday

...Synopsis...
Quasi-zonal upper-level pattern will persist across much of the
CONUS east of the Rockies on Day 3/Friday. At the surface, strong
high pressure will generally lead to dry and stable conditions.
Across the western states, a mid/upper shortwave trough over the
Pacific Northwest early in the period will develop southeast across
the Great Basin and northern Rockies. This will result in height
falls across the southern Rockies and adjacent Plains late in the
period, inducing a lee low over the central/southern High Plains. In
response, modest Gulf moisture will stream northward through the
southern Plains ahead of stalled front across the central Plains to
the Mid-MS Valley vicinity.
This warm advection regime will likely result in developing showers
from the Four Corners into the central/southern Plains and parts of
the Midwest along the aforementioned boundary. However, thunderstorm
activity should be sparse due to weak instability and poor lapse
rates. The exception may be across parts of the higher terrain of SW
CO/NW NM where cooling aloft will result in steepening midlevel
lapse rates, and deep layer flow will increase with the approach of
the trough. A few lightning flashes may occur in this area from late
Friday evening into the overnight hours.

moderate/heavy rainfall is possible in this weak upslope flow and
warm advection regime across the southern Rockies and adjacent
Plains, but thunderstorm activity is expected to be limited to
portions of the higher terrain of southern CO/northern NM. Here,
cooling aloft will result in steepening midlevel lapse rates and
sufficient MUCAPE for isolate lightning flashes will coincide with
strong ascent ahead of the shortwave trough. Further east, poor

Organized severe thunderstorms are not expected across the

...Synopsis and Discussion...
An upper trough should continue moving eastward from the Plains
across the MS Valley/Midwest and eastern states on Sunday. At the
surface, a weak low is forecast to develop northeastward from the
Mid-South to the Mid-Atlantic/Northeast through the period. A cold
front attendant to the surface low should sweep east-southeastward
across much of the southern Plains and eastern states. Modest
low-level moisture ahead of the front is expected to remain
generally confined to parts of the southern Plains into the
Mid-South. Various guidance suggests little instability should be
present across these regions owing to the limited low-level moisture
and poor mid-level lapse rates. Still, just enough elevated
instability may exist to support isolated thunderstorms, with
lightning potential decreasing with northeastward extent into the OH
Valley as instability becomes negligible. Organized severe
thunderstorms are not expected over any of these regions owing to
the meager forecast instability.
Elsewhere, isolated thunderstorms may occur Sunday across parts of
the central/southern FL Peninsula and the Keys as weak low-level
easterly flow continues, in the vicinity of the Four Corners as
upper troughing amplifies over the western CONUS late in the period,
and possibly across the Outer Banks of NC very late Sunday night
into early Monday morning.

...SUMMARY...
Organized severe thunderstorms are not expected across the

...Synopsis and Discussion...
A pair of large-scale upper troughs will move eastward across the
CONUS on Monday. Strong low-level warm/moist advection ahead of the
upper trough over the eastern states may support just enough
elevated instability to generate isolated lightning flashes across
parts of coastal MA/ME early in the period. Any thunderstorm
potential should shift quickly east-northeastward and offshore
through the day in tandem with the progression of the upper trough.
The upper trough over the western CONUS should likewise progress
eastward, with the southern portion of this trough perhaps closing
off near the Four Corners late Monday night. Although moisture will
likely remain quite limited, cooling mid-level temperatures and
strong forcing for ascent associated with the upper trough should
support isolated thunderstorms across parts of the southern/central
Rockies through the period. At the surface, lee cyclogenesis is
forecast to occur across the central High Plains, with modest
low-level moisture return occurring across portions of the
southern/central Plains ahead of the developing low. Isolated
thunderstorms may also occur across this area, mainly Monday night
into early Tuesday morning. Instability should remain fairly weak,
with any storms that form likely remaining elevated.

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
THE SOUTHERN/CENTRAL PLAINS INTO THE OZARKS...MID-SOUTH...AND LOWER
MISSISSIPPI VALLEY...
...SUMMARY...
Isolated strong to severe thunderstorms appear possible Tuesday into
Tuesday night across portions of the southern/central Plains,
Ozarks, Mid-South, and lower Mississippi Valley.
...Southern Plains into the Ozarks and Lower Mississippi Valley...
An upper trough/low initially centered over the southern/central
Rockies should eject eastward across the southern/central Plains on
Tuesday, eventually reaching the lower/mid MS Valley by the end of
the period. Enhanced (50-60+ kt) mid-level southwesterly winds will
likely overspread much of the developing warm sector across the southern/central Plains by Tuesday evening. A surface low over the
vicinity of western KS/NE Tuesday morning is forecast to develop
eastward towards the mid MS Valley through the period. Pronounced
low-level warm/moist advection will likely be ongoing across the southern/central Plains Tuesday morning, with a 40-50+ kt
south-southwesterly low-level jet present over this region. As this
low-level jet shifts eastward across the Ozarks and lower/mid MS
Valley through the day, partially modified Gulf moisture will
likewise return northward.
Elevated convection may be ongoing Tuesday morning across the
southern/central High Plains associated with low-level warm
advection. As mid-level temperatures cool with the approach of the
upper trough and low-level moisture continues streaming northward
across the southern Plains, at least weak instability should develop
by late Tuesday afternoon along and east of a surface cold front and
dryline. Somewhat steepened mid-level lapse rates and strong
deep-layer shear may support isolated, marginally severe hail with
any initially discrete storms across OK and perhaps south-central
KS. By Tuesday evening, any storms that do form will likely grow
upscale into a line along the advancing cold front. Given the
predominately linear mode and enhanced low-level wind field,
isolated strong to damaging winds should become the main threat
across the Ozarks, Mid-South, and lower MS Valley region Tuesday
night into early Wednesday morning.
There is uncertainty regarding the quality and northward extent of
greater low-level moisture return, with the 00Z GFS/ECMWF suggesting
mid to perhaps upper 50s surface dewpoints may reach as far north as south-central/southeastern KS into southern MO and the Mid-South.
The 00Z NAM shows less low-level moisture return across these areas. Regardless, there will probably be enough low-level moisture and
related weak instability to support surface-based storms and
isolated strong/gusty wind potential with a low-topped convective
line. Farther south into parts of central/eastern OK, AR, northeast
TX, northern LA, and MS, the presence of somewhat higher dewpoints
along with enhanced low-level shear may support a slightly greater
tornado threat compared to locations farther north. Model
differences regarding the degree of low-level moisture return and
weak forecast instability suggest there is too much uncertainty to
include more than a broad Marginal risk area at this time.

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
THE LOWER/MID MISSISSIPPI VALLEY...TENNESSEE VALLEY...AND
SOUTHEAST...
...SUMMARY...
Isolated strong to severe thunderstorms may occur Wednesday across
parts of the lower/mid Mississippi Valley into the Tennessee Valley
and Southeast.
...Lower/Mid Mississippi Valley into the Tennessee Valley and
Southeast...
A closed upper low with associated southwesterly mid-level jet
should continue to advance from the lower/mid MS Valley to the
Mid-Atlantic vicinity on Wednesday. A surface low initially over
northern MO is forecast to develop northeastward across the
Midwest/OH Valley and lower Great Lakes while slowly filling through
the period. A cold front extending southward from this low should
progress generally eastward across parts of the lower/mid MS Valley,
TN Valley, and Southeast through the day.
A broken line of showers/storms may be ongoing at the start of the
period across these regions along/ahead of the cold front with a isolated/marginal severe threat. Substantial low-level moisture
return will probably make only a limited northward advance ahead of
the front. Still, diurnal heating and cooling mid-level temperatures
with the approach of the upper trough/low may promote weak
instability through Wednesday evening across the narrow warm sector.
Given strong flow aloft attendant to the previously mentioned
mid-level jet, there should be more than enough deep-layer shear to
support organized storms. Isolated strong to damaging winds appear
to be the main threat with any storms that can either persist along
the front or develop ahead of it. A brief tornado or two also cannot
be ruled out mainly early in the period, before low-level winds veer
more west-southwesterly as the primary low-level jet shifts north of
the surface warm sector and into the OH Valley by Wednesday evening. Eventually, the cold front should outpace the modest low-level
moisture return across the TN Valley and Southeast, with a gradual
reduction in the already isolated/marginal severe threat by late
Wednesday evening as the system occludes.

...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
Organized severe thunderstorms appear unlikely across the contiguous
United States on Thursday, but small hail may occur with
thunderstorms across parts of east Texas into the ArkLaTex late
Thursday night.
...Synopsis and Discussion...
A de-amplifying shortwave trough should move across the Mid-Atlantic
and southern New England on Thursday. A weak surface low associated
with this feature is forecast to fill further through the day. An eastward-moving cold front should extend from the Mid-Atlantic
southwestward along parts of the East Coast and into the Southeast.
The stronger mid-level flow attendant to the shortwave trough should
remain displaced to the north of greater low-level moisture across
the Carolinas and Southeast. Although enough weak elevated
instability may develop across the eastern part of the Mid-Atlantic
and southern New England to support isolated thunderstorms,
surface-based convection appears unlikely at this time. From the
Carolinas into the Southeast, additional storms may occur through
the day along/ahead of the cold front. These areas will remain
generally to the south of stronger forcing for ascent related to the
previously mentioned shortwave trough, with overall storm coverage
expected to remain fairly low.
As a positively tilted upper trough moves southeastward over the western/central CONUS, low-level moisture return should occur across
parts of coastal/east TX and the ArkLaTex region late Thursday into
early Friday morning. Modestly steepened mid-level lapse rates
emanating from the higher terrain of west TX and northern Mexico may
overspread this region late in the period. Weak to perhaps moderate
MUCAPE should develop along/north of a front, with sufficient
mid-level west-southwesterly flow to support some deep-layer shear.
At this point, small hail appears possible with any storms that can
form in a weak low-level warm advection regime. However, confidence
in an isolated large hail threat from elevated storms remains low
owing to nebulous large-scale forcing with the upper trough
remaining well to the west, and differences in model guidance
regarding both the placement and overall coverage of storms.

Organized severe thunderstorms appear unlikely across the contiguous
United States on Saturday.
...Synopsis and Discussion...
A closed mid/upper-level low should move slowly eastward across the
southern Plains on Saturday. A prolonged period of precipitation
will likely have been ongoing since Friday across much of
central/east TX ahead of this feature, limiting instability. A weak
surface low is forecast to develop from the lower TX Coast vicinity northeastward towards coastal LA through the period. A cold front
will probably move off the TX Coast Saturday morning, with elevated,
non-severe thunderstorms possible to its north across parts of
central/east TX. At this point, it appears that a marine warm front
extending east-northeastward from the surface low will not make
substantial progress inland across coastal LA/MS/AL through late
Saturday night. Accordingly, the potential for surface-based
thunderstorms posing even an isolated/marginal severe risk across
this area currently appears low.

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY/SOUTHEAST INTO THE CAROLINAS...
...SUMMARY...
Isolated strong to severe thunderstorms may occur Sunday across
parts of the lower Mississippi Valley into the Southeast and
Carolinas.
...Lower Mississippi Valley into the Southeast and Carolinas...
A closed upper low over the southern Plains Sunday morning should
move eastward across the lower MS Valley and Southeast through the
day. This upper low should begin to merge with a northern-stream
upper trough over the eastern CONUS Sunday evening into early Monday
morning. A weak surface low initially near the coast of LA is
forecast to develop northeastward across the Southeast through the
day while gradually deepening. Additional deepening of this surface
low should occur Sunday evening through the end of the period as it
continues developing northeastward along/near the spine of the
southern/central Appalachians. A warm front should lift northward
across parts of the Southeast and Carolinas through the period,
while a cold front attendant to the surface low sweeps eastward
across these regions throughout the period.
A prior frontal intrusion over the northern Gulf of Mexico may tend
to limit the prospect for substantial inland destabilization across
the Southeast through Sunday evening. Even so, low to mid 60s
surface dewpoints should advance northward into parts of southern
LA/MS/AL and the FL Panhandle in tandem with the developing surface
low and warm front through the day. Forecast soundings from various
models suggest weak instability may gradually develop with modest
daytime heating across these areas along/south of the warm front.
Strong low-level and deep-layer shear appear likely given the
enhanced wind field associated with the approaching upper low. This
high-shear, low-instability setup typically favors isolated strong
to severe convection across the developing warm sector along/ahead
of the eastward-moving cold front. Damaging winds a perhaps a couple
tornadoes would be the main threats with both low-topped supercells
and linear convection given the forecast strength of the low-level
flow and shear.
This isolated severe threat may continue across parts of GA into the
Carolinas Sunday night and early Monday morning (end of the Day 3
period), as low-level moisture return occurs from the western
Atlantic. However, even through the low-level flow across these
areas should be quite strong, surface-based instability is forecast
to remain rather weak. Given the potentially limiting factor of
modest instability, have opted to introduce a broad Marginal Risk
area from parts of the lower MS Valley/Southeast into the Carolinas.
The northern extent of any damaging wind/tornado threat remains
unclear, as there is uncertainty in how far north the low to mid 60s
surface dewpoints (which will probably be needed for surface-based
storms) will advance across the Southeast and Carolinas. If
confidence increases in a narrow corridor of greater instability
developing across the warm sector, a Slight Risk for damaging winds
and/or tornadoes may need to be included across some portion of
these regions in a later outlook update.

...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
Isolated thunderstorms are possible across portions of the Lower
Mississippi Valley and Southeast on Thursday.
...Synopsis...
At the beginning of the period, a pair of upper lows, one centered
over northeast OK and the other over the central NM/AZ, are expected
to be embedded within an elongated upper trough extending from the
Mid MS Valley through the Southwest. This upper troughing will
likely be maintained throughout the period as the easternmost upper
low devolves into an open wave and moves across the Mid MS Valley
into the Lower OH Valley. Enhanced mid-level flow attendant to this
upper low/shortwave will spread northeastward from the Southern
Plains through the OH Valley.
The surface low associated with the eastern upper low is forecast to
begin the period over eastern OK. This low is expected to fill
throughout the day while a secondary low develops farther south over
the Lower MS Valley. Upper 50s/low 60s dewpoints are anticipated
ahead of this secondary low and attendant cold front. Daytime
heating will be tempered by abundant cloud cover, but enough
low-level moisture is expected to be in place to support modest
instability and the development of isolated thunderstorms. This
instability will likely be displaced south of the stronger low-level
and mid-level flow, limiting vertical shear and keeping severe
potential very low.

...SUMMARY...
Isolated thunderstorms are possible across the Southeast, Florida,
and the eastern Mid-Atlantic States on Friday.
...Synopsis...
A positively tilted shortwave trough will likely extend from the Mid
MS Valley southwestward into north TX early Friday morning.
Expectation is for this shortwave to progress eastward through the
TN Valley and Southeast, eventually moving into the Mid-Atlantic
States by early Saturday morning. As the shortwave progresses
eastward, it will pivot into a negative tilt while also developing
strong mid-level flow from its based throughout its eastern
periphery.
Surface low accompanying this shortwave is forecast to begin the
period over coastal MS/AL before quickly moving northeastward. This
low is expected to end the period over central VA. Modest moisture
advection is anticipated ahead of this low and attendant cold front,
with low 60s dewpoints expected across the FL Panhandle Friday
afternoon and across the coastal Mid-Atlantic Friday night into
Saturday morning. Even with this moisture, abundant clouds will
limit heating and poor lapse rates will suppress overall buoyancy.
Wind profiles support a severe risk with any sustained,
surface-based updrafts, but occurrence of such an updraft will
depend on mesoscale factors difficult to predict at this forecast
length. Most likely locations for severe storms currently appear to
be over the central FL Panhandle on Friday afternoon and along the
Carolina coast late Friday night/early Saturday. However, given the predictability issues, no areas will be delineated with this
forecast.

...SUMMARY...
Isolated lightning flashes are possible across the Mid-Atlantic and central/southern Florida Peninsula on Saturday.
...Synopsis and Discussion...
Majority of the medium-range forecast guidance places a mature
mid-latitude cyclone over the central Mid-Atlantic States on
Saturday morning. The only exception is the ECMWF, which is more
progressive and places the cyclone off the northern Mid-Atlantic
coast. This more progressive solution takes the front offshore
before the period begins, while the less progressive solutions leave
a small portion of the central/northern Mid-Atlantic ahead of the
front. Given the presence of very strong low to mid-level flow, some
low severe risk is feasible across coastal NC and the VA Tidewater
in the less progressive solutions. However, forecast confidence is
currently too low to introduce an outlook area.
Mostly stable conditions are expected outside of the Mid-Atlantic
region. A few lightning flashes are possible across the central and
southern FL Peninsula as a front moves through. A few lightning
flashes are also possible across South TX as a shortwave trough
ejects northeastward out of central Mexico and across TX. Coverage
over South TX are currently expected to be less than 10 percent.

Isolated thunderstorms are possible across southern Florida Sunday
night into early Monday morning.
...Synopsis...
An upper level low over OK/TX on Sunday morning is forecast to shift
eastward across the lower MS Valley while merging with an upper
trough over the Midwest late in the period. A weak surface low and
cold front will track eastward across the Gulf of Mexico well south
of the northern Gulf Coast. However, strong southwesterly deep layer
flow associate with the upper low/trough will result in strong
midlevel warm advection and widespread showers are expected along
much of the northern Gulf Coast. Thunderstorms are not expected with
this activity given limited low level moisture and weak instability.
Further east and ahead of the surface low/cold front, deeper
boundary layer moisture will reside across the southern FL peninsula
and increase during the overnight hours as southerly low level flow strengthens. While instability will be weak and midlevel lapse rates
poor, a few pre-frontal thunderstorms appear possible during the
overnight hours as shear and forcing increases. The poor
thermodynamic environment should preclude any severe threat.

A mean upper trough will persist across the eastern U.S. on Monday
while an upper ridge builds across the western half of the country.
Within the western upper ridge, an upper low over southern CA will
become cut-off and shift southwest over the Pacific offshore from
southern CA/northern Baja. At the surface, high pressure will
envelop much of the CONUS, bringing dry and stable conditions with
little chance of thunderstorm activity. The exception will be across
the southern Florida peninsula, mainly during the morning hours. A
weak surface low offshore the southwest FL coast will quickly shift east/northeast by early afternoon, and a cold front will sag
southward. Weak instability and poor lapse rates should limit severe
potential, though strong southwesterly deep layer flow will persist
through at least midday. This could result in a briefly organized
storm or two, capable of gusty winds.

...NO THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
The risk for thunderstorms appears negligible across the U.S.,
Tuesday through Tuesday night.
...Discussion...
Models indicate that initially amplified mid/upper troughing digging
to the lee of the southern Rockies by 12Z Tuesday may undergo
considerable shearing during this period. The primary embedded
short wave perturbation, perhaps including at least a transient
closed mid-level low, is generally forecast to pivot across the
central and southern Great Plains, through the middle and lower
Mississippi Valley by the end of the period. As it does, it is
forecast to provide support for slowly deepening surface troughing
across and east of the Mississippi Valley. Although initially
expansive cold surface ridging across and east of this region at the
outset of the period will suppress significant surface cyclogenesis,
this may include the development of a surface low over the lower
Ohio Valley by 12Z Wednesday. Otherwise, a frontal zone, initially
extending across the central Florida Peninsula into the northern
Gulf of Mexico, probably will become the primary focus for potential cyclogenesis. And models indicate a couple of waves developing
along it by late Tuesday night.
Boundary-layer moistening and destabilization within the warm sector
of one of these, across the north central into northeastern Gulf of
Mexico, could provide support for increasing thunderstorm activity
(well offshore) Tuesday night. Another wave, developing a bit
later, may be accompanied by at least increasing boundary-layer
destabilization off the south Atlantic coast.
Otherwise, across and inland of coastal areas, through most of the
U.S., generally stable conditions are likely to prevail with
negligible risk for thunderstorms.

...SUMMARY...
Strong thunderstorms may impact parts of the Outer and Inner Banks
vicinity of North Carolina and Gulf coastal areas of the northern
Florida Peninsula Wednesday, posing at least some risk for severe
weather.
...Synopsis...
Little change in the general large-scale pattern is expected from

extending across the middle and southern Atlantic Seaboard into the northeastern Gulf of Mexico. Aside from parts of northern
Florida/the northern Florida Peninsula, the surface front is
expected to mostly remain offshore. However, moisture return above
the frontal inversion, inland of coastal areas, may contribute to
areas of very weak CAPE. This may contribute to at least low
probabilities for convection capable of producing lightning, as a
vigorous remnant short wave perturbation rapidly accelerates
northeast of the lower Mississippi Valley.
Initially, there may be a couple of developing waves along the
frontal zone, one over the northeastern Gulf of Mexico and another
off the South Carolina coast. However, as the mid-level
perturbation approaches the Mid Atlantic coast, the trailing wave is
expected to weaken as the lead wave becomes more prominent.
Substantive further deepening is forecast as a developing cyclone
center tracks near or across the North Carolina Outer Banks vicinity
into areas off the Mid Atlantic coast by Wednesday evening.
...Eastern North Carolina...
There appears at least some possibility that the track of the
developing cyclone may allow for at least a weakly destabilizing
warm sector boundary layer to overspread the Outer and Inner Banks
vicinity by Wednesday afternoon. If this occurs, it probably will
be in the presence of wind profiles characterized by strong
deep-layer shear and sizable, clockwise curved low-level hodographs,
supportive of supercell convection posing potential to produce a
tornado or damaging wind gusts.
...Northern Florida/Florida Peninsula...
A signal exists in the latest model output that a cluster of
thunderstorms will spread into coastal areas by Wednesday afternoon.
Initially supported by moderate boundary-layer CAPE over the
northeastern Gulf of Mexico, an organized line of vigorous
thunderstorms may develop along the leading edge of this cluster, in
the presence of sheared, 30-50+ kt west-southwesterly deep-layer
mean flow. Although the environment may become progressively less
stable into coastal areas, with instability inland also remaining
poor, it is possible that a damaging wind/isolated tornado risk
could at least develop into coastal areas between Tampa and the Big
Bend vicinity, before diminishing.

...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
A corridor from eastern Texas into portions of the lower Mississippi
Valley may see some weak thunderstorm activity late Friday night.
...Discussion...
Little change to the general mid/upper flow regime is expected from
Thursday into Friday. With stable conditions initially prevalent,
this will probably be maintained across most areas through the
period.
However, boundary-layer moistening ongoing across the southwestern
Gulf of Mexico early Friday likely will continue, with an
increasingly moist southerly return flow developing across and
inland of the northwestern Gulf coast Friday through Friday night.
This is expected to occur as one short wave trough, within the main
belt of westerlies impacting the U.S., progresses east of the
southern Rockies.
Models indicate that this trough will be accompanied by a 60-80 kt
cyclonic, southwesterly mid-level jet across the southern Great
Plains. To the equatorward side of this jet, relatively warm and
warming air aloft seems likely to initially cap the low-level
moisture return, which is also expected to be elevated above a
residual near-surface stable layer inland of the Gulf coast. While
the stronger mid/upper support for ascent will remain displaced well
to the north of the Gulf coast (across the central Great Plains into
the middle Mississippi Valley), it does appear that weak mid-level
cooling may begin to overspread the moistening southerly return flow
by late Friday night. This may yield scattered weak thunderstorm
activity from northeast Texas toward the Mississippi Delta, and
perhaps southward into upper Texas coastal areas, by 12Z Saturday.

...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
The risk for severe thunderstorms appears negligible across the
U.S., Saturday through Saturday night.
...Discussion...
Much of North America will remain under the influence of branching
westerlies emanating from the mid-latitude and subtropical Pacific,
but broad mid/upper ridging developing within this regime may spread
inland of the Pacific coast during this period. Downstream, as one
short wave trough digs across the southern Rockies and another
southeast of the Canadian Prairies, it appears that a short wave
trough, initially over the southern Great Plains at 12Z Saturday,
will pivot east-northeastward through the lower Ohio and Tennessee
Valleys by late Saturday night.
A significant surface cyclone, initially developing to the lee of
the Canadian Rockies, is forecast to accompany the northern
perturbation into northwestern Ontario by the end of the period.
Models indicate that this will trail an initially more significant
cyclone over Hudson Bay, with a developing cold front within weak
surface troughing trailing southward across the upper Great Lakes
into the southeastern Great Plains. However, they suggest little in
the way of substantive wave development along this boundary as it
continues to shift east of the Mississippi Valley.
Modest moisture return emanating from the southwestern Gulf of
Mexico may reach northwestern Gulf coastal areas by 12Z Saturday.
While this may spread inland across upper Texas coastal areas,
mostly above a residual surface based stable layer, it appears that
it will only contribute to very weak CAPE as far north as the lower
Mississippi Valley.
...Southeastern Great Plains into Gulf States...
Weak destabilization associated with pre-cold frontal elevated
moisture return may support increasing convection capable of
producing lightning in a corridor across northeastern Texas through
central Arkansas early Saturday. This likely will be aided by
forcing for ascent ahead of the approaching short wave trough.
As the short wave impulse turns east-northeast of the southern Great
Plains, models suggest that one tightening low-level thermal
gradient ahead of the cold front (roughly in the 925-850 mb layer),
near its intersection, may provide a focus for continuing weak
thunderstorm activity. Due to spread among the various model
output, how far east remains a little unclear, but low probabilities
for thunderstorms may extend as far east as north central Georgia by
late Saturday night.
Models suggest that another corridor of favorable ascent may support thunderstorm development southeastward into better low-level
moisture and instability across southeast Texas and southern
Louisiana. However, any intensification into more vigorous
thunderstorms capable of posing an appreciable severe threat
probably will be confined to northwestern into north central Gulf of
Mexico.

...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
Isolated thunderstorms are possible over portions of the central and
eastern Gulf Coast regions on Sunday.
...Synopsis...
Broadly cyclonic upper flow is expected to be in place over the
central and eastern CONUS early Sunday morning. Two shortwave
troughs are forecast to exist within this troughing early Sunday,
one extending from the Upper OH Valley into AL/GA and the other from
the central Plains through southern High Plains. The lead shortwave
is forecast to continue northeastward through the Mid-Atlantic and
offshore while the shortwave continues southeastward through the
Mid/Lower MS Valley and TN Valley/Southeast.
A surface low is expected to be centered just off the southeastern
LA coast at the beginning of the period. This low will likely then
track gradually eastward very near the central Gulf Coast throughout
the day before shifting northeastward over northern FL and ending
the period just off the GA/SC coast. Given the expected path of this
low, inland penetration of the warm sector will be minimal. A few
lightning flashes are possible amid the weak buoyancy and modest
ascent near the surface low and along the attendant cold front. If
the system is more progressive, it could contribute to higher
lightning potential across central/southern FL. However, low
predictability limits expanding the thunder area into more of
central/south FL with this outlook.

Northwest late Monday night/early Tuesday morning.
At the surface, stable conditions are expected in the wake of the GA/Mid-Atlantic shortwave trough, with offshore trajectories keeping
low-level moisture offshore. The lack of low-level moisture and
instability will preclude thunderstorm development across the CONUS.

...SUMMARY...
Thunderstorms are not expected on Tuesday.
...Synopsis...
Shortwave ridging is anticipated to be in place over the central
CONUS early Tuesday, with shortwave troughs flanking on either side.
Overall pattern is expected to progress eastward with the western
CONUS shortwave trough moving east-southeastward while deepening.
This deepening may lead to bifurcation of the wave, with the
southern portion over the Four Corners region early Wednesday.
At the surface, lee troughing is expected to deepen ahead of the
approaching shortwave trough. Surface cyclogenesis is anticipated
over the northern High Plains, with the resulting low moving
eastward across the northern Plains. Secondary cyclogenesis is
possible over the central High Plains late Tuesday night/early
Wednesday morning. By 12Z Wednesday, an expansive area of low
pressure encompassing both of these lows will cover much of the
Plains and MS Valley.
A strong cold front attendant to these surface lows will sweep
across the northern and central Plains. However, low-level moisture
will be confined to central/south TX, and the resulting lack of
buoyancy will preclude thunderstorm development along the front.

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM SOUTHEAST
TEXAS ACROSS THE CENTRAL GULF COAST INTO THE WESTERN FLORIDA
PANHANDLE...
...SUMMARY...
Isolated severe thunderstorms are possible from southeast Texas
across the central Gulf Coast into the western Florida Panhandle.
...Synopsis...
A deep surface low is forecast to be centered over east-central
MN/northwest WI early Wednesday morning. A strong cold front will
extend southwestward from the low across the Ozark Plateau and into north-central TX before arcing more westward through the TX Permian
Basin. This front is expected to surge southward/southeastward
throughout the day as the parent surface low moves eastward over the
Upper Great Lakes and gradually occludes.
At the same time, upper troughing initially extending from the
Canadian Prairie Provinces into the central Rockies is expected to
deepen significantly as it progresses eastward. Additionally,
mid-level flow surrounding the trough will strengthen. By early
Thursday morning, a large corridor of 100+kt 500-mb winds is
expected to extend from the Lower MS Valley through the Upper Great
Lakes into southeastern Ontario.
Modest moisture advection associated with this system will likely
result in low to mid 60s dewpoints from central/east TX into
southern AL/MS and the FL Panhandle ahead of surging cold front.
Widespread cloud cover will temper daytime heating and, along with
poor lapse rates, will contribute to limited buoyancy. Even so,
strong vertical shear supports organized storm structures with any mature/persistent updrafts. Based on current guidance, highest
probability of severe storms appears to be across the western FL
Panhandle early Thursday when the strengthening low-level flow
aligns with the limited buoyancy.

...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS FAR EASTERN SC...COASTAL NC...AND FAR SOUTHEAST VA...
...SUMMARY...
Isolated severe thunderstorms are possible across portions of the
Florida Panhandle and adjacent southeast Alabama and southwest
Georgia early Thursday. Severe thunderstorms are also expected
across the Mid-Atlantic States Thursday afternoon and evening.
...Synopsis and Discussion...
Deep upper troughing is forecast to extend from northwestern Ontario
into central Mexico early Thursday morning. Strong flow aloft will
extend throughout the periphery of this upper trough. Shortwave
trough embedded within the base of this larger trough will likely be
moving through the Ozark Plateau and southern Plains early Thursday
morning. Continued eastward/northeastward progression of this
shortwave is expected, with the parent upper trough also progressing
eastward. Evolution of the embedded shortwave will help induce a
neutral tilt to the upper trough by Thursday afternoon, and a
slightly negative tilt and closed upper circulation over the OH
Valley by late Thursday night/early Friday morning.
The maturing process of the upper trough will also result in further strengthening of the winds throughout its periphery. By early Friday
morning, 100+ kt 500-mb winds will likely extend from the mid MS
Valley southeastward/eastward through the base of the trough over
the Southeast and then back northeastward into the Northeast. Very
intense low-level flow is also expected, with 60+ kt at 850-mb
extending from the Carolinas through the Mid-Atlantic into Quebec.
Modest severe potential is anticipated early Thursday along and
ahead of the across the FL Panhandle and southeast AL/southwest GA.
In this region, modest instability and strong flow will likely
support a few strong/severe storms. An additional area of
potentially greater severe potential is expected farther north
across the Mid-Atlantic. In this area, a deepening surface low and
strong low-level flow will contribute to robust moisture return as
well as large, looping low-level hodographs. Strong buoyancy is not
expected, but given the very strong vertical shear, even modest
surface-based instability will likely result in severe storms.
Strong to severe storms along the front appear likely, with some
potential for warm-sector storms as well. Given the anticipated
kinematic environment, any deeper warm-sector storms would likely
become supercellular.

A deep upper trough, with an embedded closed circulation over the

Very strong flow aloft will surround this system as it gradually

no thunderstorms are expected across the central and eastern CONUS.
Farther west, upper ridging initially in place over the western
CONUS will gradually progress eastward as a shortwave trough
approaches the Pacific Northwest. Strong forcing for ascent and cold temperatures aloft will accompany this shortwave, and a lightning
flash or two may occur in the deeper convection within the frontal
band offshore. However, any lightning is not expected to continue
once the band moves onshore.

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF WEST-CENTRAL TEXAS...
...SUMMARY...
Thunderstorms associated with strong wind gusts and hail may develop
across parts of west-central Texas Tuesday evening into the
overnight period.
...Southern Plains...
The northern part of an upper-level trough is forecast to move
eastward across the Desert Southwest on Tuesday as southwest
mid-level flow strengthens across the southern Plains. In response,
a 40 to 60 kt low-level jet will develop in the southern Plains,
resulting in some moisture return across central and west Texas
Tuesday afternoon and evening. At the surface, a cold front is
forecast to advance quickly southeastward into west Texas by Tuesday
evening. Increasing low-level convergence ahead of the front along
with weak destabilization should result in convective development
from southwest Oklahoma into the Low-rolling Plains of west-central
Texas. Although deep-layer shear will likely increase into the 70 to
90 kt range, instability is forecast to remain weak ahead of the
front. Forecast soundings Tuesday evening into the overnight period
across west-central Texas increase MLCAPE to around 500 J/kg. This
could be enough for a marginal severe threat in the vicinity of San
Angelo as thunderstorms develop and increase in coverage along the
cold front Tuesday evening. Hail and a few strong wind gusts would
be the primary threats.

...Texas Coastal Plain...
An upper-level low is forecast to move east-southeastward across
northern Mexico on Wednesday as southwest mid-level flow remains in
place from the southern Plains into the Arklatex. Strong low-level
flow will be maintained across the Texas Coastal Plain resulting in
an increase in moisture during the day. Surface dewpoints are
forecast increase into the 60s F across much of the Texas Coastal
Plain as a cold front approaches from the northwest. Model forecasts
suggest that the strongest instability will develop during the late
afternoon from near Brownsville northward to near Austin, where
MLCAPE could exceed 1000 J/kg. Thunderstorms appear likely to
develop along the front in the afternoon due to increasing surface
temperatures and enhanced low-level convergence. Additional
convection could initiate to the south of the front across southern
sections of the Texas Coastal Plain. In this area, MLCAPE of 1200
J/kg, 0-6 km shear near 50 kt and steep lapse rates above 700 mb
would be enough for a marginal severe threat. The threat for hail
and strong wind gusts would be greatest from near Victoria northward
to between Austin and College Station between 21Z/Wed and 00Z/Thu.

Severe thunderstorms associated with a tornado threat and wind
damage will be possible Thursday into Thursday night from far
southeast Texas into the lower Mississippi Valley and across the
central Gulf Coast States.
...Southeast Texas/Lower Mississippi Valley/Central Gulf Coast
States...
An upper-level low will move from northern Mexico into the southern
Plains on Thursday. Divergent flow aloft will overspread eastern
Texas and Louisiana as the negatively-tilted system deepens. A large
cluster of thunderstorms appears likely to be ongoing in southeast
Texas at the start of the period. This convection is forecast to
move eastward as a low deepens and moves northeastward into the
Arklatex. Although instability will be weak along the attendant
surface trough, strong deep-layer shear will create conditions
favorable for severe storms. Lift associated with a mid-level jet,
rounding the base of the upper-level system, will provide additional
support for organized storms. As the mid-level jet moves eastward
across the Lower Mississippi Valley on Thursday, thunderstorm
development is expected to occur across parts of Louisiana and
Mississippi.
Instability is forecast to gradually increase across the moist
sector, which should be located from Louisiana to southwestern
Alabama. Discrete thunderstorms that develop ahead of the cold front
across the moist sector could have a wind damage and tornado
potential. During the late afternoon, the most favorable area would
be in far southeast Louisiana, where the models maximize instability
at the northern end of the moist axis. The corridor of maximized
low-level moisture is forecast to shift eastward across southern
Mississippi and southern Alabama during the evening and overnight
period. Models suggest the possibility of a convective line located
along the moist axis. This line would be associated with a continued
wind damage and tornado threat during the overnight period.

An upper-level low will move northeastward into the mid Mississippi

spread eastward across Georgia and South Carolina during the
afternoon. Deep-layer shear of 40 to 50 kt across the moist sector
will make conditions supportive of marginally severe storms. The
best chance for a severe threat may develop in the early evening
across parts of South Carolina as moisture advection increases
surface dewpoints into the mid to upper 60s F. As a result, MLCAPE
may peak in the 500 to 750 J/kg range across parts of southern and
eastern South Carolina. The stronger storms could have an isolated
wind damage threat. A marginal tornado threat will also be possible,
associated with storms that remain discrete. The marginal severe
threat may affect parts of southern North Carolina during the late

...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
A few thunderstorms are possible Sunday morning over eastern North
Carolina and southeast Virginia.
...Synopsis...
As one shortwave trough moves from the OH Valley into the Northeast,
another will move from the southern Plains into the southeast. Low
pressure over eastern NC at 12Z Sunday will deepen offshore during
the day, enabling the cold front to move quickly offshore. This
front will trail southwestward across FL, but forecast soundings
reveal poor lapse rates and drying winds from the west.
Meanwhile, heights will fall overnight across the Pacific Northwest
as a positive-tilt upper trough approached the WA/OR coasts. While a
few lightning flashes are possible in this region over the Pacific
Ocean, the greatest chance of isolated thunderstorms will be early
in the day over far eastern NC and southeastern VA.
...Eastern NC and southeastern VA...
While height falls with the shortwave trough will be focused from VA
northward, a moist air mass with 60-65 F dewpoints will exist ahead
of the front over eastern NC. Forecast soundings show parcels are
likely to remain elevated over land, the exception being the Outer

NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0135 PM CST Fri Jan 01 2021
Valid 031200Z - 041200Z
...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
A few thunderstorms are possible Sunday morning over eastern North
Carolina and southeast Virginia.
...Synopsis...
As one shortwave trough moves from the OH Valley into the Northeast,
another will move from the southern Plains into the southeast. Low
pressure over eastern NC at 12Z Sunday will deepen offshore during
the day, enabling the cold front to move quickly offshore. This
front will trail southwestward across FL, but forecast soundings
reveal poor lapse rates and drying winds from the west.
Meanwhile, heights will fall overnight across the Pacific Northwest
as a positive-tilt upper trough approached the WA/OR coasts. While a
few lightning flashes are possible in this region over the Pacific
Ocean, the greatest chance of isolated thunderstorms will be early
in the day over far eastern NC and southeastern VA.
...Eastern NC and southeastern VA...
While height falls with the shortwave trough will be focused from VA
northward, a moist air mass with 60-65 F dewpoints will exist ahead
of the front over eastern NC. Forecast soundings show parcels are
likely to remain elevated over land, the exception being the Outer
Banks. A small time window will exist between 12Z and 15Z Sunday for
storms in this area, with the bulk of the activity offshore. Shear
will be strong, but low-level winds will quickly veer to
southwesterly, reducing SRH over land. While the threat of an
isolated severe storm is non-zero, it remains highly conditional.
North of the low, minimal elevated instability may be present for a

0212 AM CST Sat Jan 02 2021
Valid 041200Z - 051200Z
...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
A few low-topped thunderstorms will be possible Monday across the
coastal Pacific Northwest and into parts of northern California.
...Synopsis...
The upper-air pattern will remain amplified, yet progressive on
Monday, with an upper trough over the Southeast and a secondary wave
moving eastward across the Great Lakes. This will reinforce high
pressure from the Plains into the Southeast, providing stability
with continued offshore flow.
To the west, significant height falls will occur during the day from
northern CA into the Pacific Northwest as an amplified shortwave
trough moves ashore around 00Z. Cool air aloft combined with lift
from a cold front may result in isolated to scattered low-topped
showers and thunderstorms, with the greatest lightning flash density
likely offshore. Low-level lapse rates over land will be relatively
poor with little to no heating due to increasing clouds and
precipitation. Due to the weak instability, severe weather is not
anticipated.

A progressive pattern will persist on Tuesday with an upper trough
departing the East and another trough crossing the Rockies into the

another reinforcing high over the Great Basin.
Meager low-level moisture return is forecast to occur Tuesday night
across TX, with a shallow layer of 50s F dewpoints possible by 12Z
Wed into central TX. This will occur ahead of a cold front preceding
the northern/central Plains upper trough. Despite the low-level
moistening, there is no chance of thunderstorms as capping will
remain prominent with a cool boundary layer.

...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
Thunderstorms are possible Thursday from southeast Louisiana
eastward into Georgia and northern Florida.
...Synopsis and Discussion...
On Thursday, a shortwave trough with closed low centered over AR
will move east across the southeastern States, and into GA by 12Z
Friday. Strong westerly winds aloft will exist south of the upper
low, with up to 80 kt winds at 500 mb within the jet core.
Temperatures at 500 mb will be as cold as -20 C along the central
Gulf Coast, steepening midlevel lapse rates.
The presence of high pressure over the Southeast ahead of this upper
trough will retard low-level moisture return, and also limit
low-level lapse rates. Forecast soundings ahead of the cold front
over southern MS, AL and the FL Panhandle indicate that the most
unstable parcels may remain elevated, with minimal SBCAPE. Given
this cool boundary layer, severe storms appear unlikely. However,
shear will conditionally be favorable for supercells and even
tornadoes if better-than-expected moisture return occurs, and the
low remains over land. In this case, isolated supercells could not
be ruled out along the immediate MS/AL/FL Panhandle coasts. Will
defer any potential risk areas to later updates when predictability
increases.
Elsewhere, elevated instability may develop over parts of the
Pacific Northwest Thursday night as a powerful midlevel jet noses
into northern CA, with 500 mb temperatures dropping to -30 C.

trail southwest over south FL early in the day, but rapid drying
will occur from the west, and thunderstorms are not expected. High
pressure will stretch from the Plains into the Gulf of Mexico,
maintaining stable conditions.
To the west, a shortwave trough will be near the coastal Pacific
Northwest early in the day, but will move east during the afternoon
with height rises along the coast. While minimal elevated CAPE may
be present early, the trend is expected to be toward little to no
thunderstorms throughout the day.

A few thunderstorms are possible late Saturday night over parts of

An upper low will move southeast across the Four Corners and into
northwest TX by Sunday morning, with a cyclonically curved speed max
nosing into west TX by 00Z. Strong height falls will occur over much
of TX overnight, increasing lift.
While very little boundary-layer moisture return will occur ahead of
this system due to a surface ridge over the Gulf of Mexico, forecast
soundings do yield minimal elevated MUCAPE as a southerly low-level
jet increases moisture advection aloft. At least isolated,
non-severe thunderstorms are expected after 09Z roughly along I-35
in TX, but weak instability will limit severe potential.

General thunderstorms are possible from parts of southeast Texas
into southern Louisiana. Severe weather is unlikely.
...Synopsis...
A shortwave trough will move east across TX and toward the lower MS
Valley on Sunday, providing strong southwest flow aloft along with
height falls. Ahead of this trough, a cool/stable air mass due to
high pressure will exist, and will prevent any appreciable
destabilization. Models indicate the surface low associated with
this trough will remain over the northern Gulf of Mexico, thus there
is little chance of SBCAPE developing over land. However, weak
elevated instability is expected to develop from southeast TX into
southern LA, supporting general thunderstorm activity.

A shortwave trough will lose amplitude as it moves from the lower MS
valley toward the Mid Atlantic on Monday, with a broad belt of
strong mid and upper-level southwesterlies over the southeastern
states. At the surface, a stable air mass will remain in place over
land, despite a weak surface low moving across northern FL and
southern GA into Tuesday morning. Dewpoints downstream of the low
are only expected to reach the 45-50 F range, resulting in very
little SBCAPE for thunderstorms. While weak warm/moist advection
will occur above 850 mb across GA and the Carolinas Monday night,
forecast soundings show very little elevated instability. As such,
thunderstorm chances will be minimal.

...Synopsis...
A stable pattern will persist across much of the CONUS on Tuesday as
a shortwave trough quickly exits the Mid Atlantic early in the day.
High pressure will spread across the Plains and Southeast, centered
over the Four Corners, and this will shunt any appreciable low-level
moisture offshore. To the west, strong southwest flow aloft will
persist through the period over the Pacific Northwest as a strong
jet max approaches Vancouver Island into Tuesday morning. Given that
the midlevel temperature gradient will be north of the Canadian
border, little if any CAPE is expected over WA or OR.

southeast through the southern Appalachians into the Gulf Coast
States. The front will continue east and off the Atlantic seaboard
by late Friday night. Bands of precipitation will likely occur in
vicinity of this boundary. However, very limited moisture return and
meager to no instability should preclude thunderstorm development.

No severe weather is expected across the U.S. Friday.

Substantial amplification of the large-scale pattern is expected
Friday, as the short-wave trough digging southeastward across the

By the end of the period, broad/high-amplitude cyclonic flow will
prevail over the entire western U.S., with the positively tilted
trough axis extending from Montana to central California.
At the surface, high pressure will prevail east of the Rockies
through the period, while a cold front shifts across the
Southwest/southern Rockies through the period.
With dry/stable conditions prevailing east of the Rockies,
thunderstorms are not expected. In the West, cold air/steep lapse
rates aloft -- associated with the upper trough -- will support scattered/showery convection. While a lightning flash or two cannot
be ruled out, any coverage would likely be less than 10%.

Slow progression of the upper pattern is expected Saturday, as the
main feature of interest -- the upper trough over the West --
continues a slow southeasterly advance. As this occurs, downstream
flow across the central and into the eastern U.S. will take on
gradual anticyclonic curvature in response.
At the surface, high pressure will remain prevalent east of the
Rockies, though a cold front crossing the Desert Southwest and
southern Rockies is progged to eventually reach the central and
southern Plains.
Similar to Friday, showers will accompany the advance of the upper
system across the West, as cold air/steep lapse rates aloft spread
slowly eastward. While a few lightning flashes may again occur over
parts of the West, anticipated coverage appears insufficient to
warrant inclusion of a 10% thunder area.

...SUMMARY...
Severe storms are not expected across the U.S. on Sunday.
...Synopsis...
Mean long-wave upper troughing is forecast to remain over the
western U.S. this period, as smaller-scale/short-wave troughs rotate
through the broader cyclonic flow field. The first of these --
initially lying across southern California and northern Baja, is
expected to shift eastward across the Desert Southwest and southern
Rockies, and then reach the southern High Plains region as a
negatively tilted, deamplifying impulse late in the period.
Meanwhile, the second short-wave feature will lie just off the
western Canada coast initially, with an associated/elongated
north-south lobe of vorticity extending from Alaska to just off the
Pacific Northwest coast. With time, the short-wave energy will dig
southward along the West Coast, to a position just inland by the end
of the period -- thus reinforcing the pre-existing long-wave trough.
At the surface, a cold front associated with the initial short-wave
trough ejecting across the Southwest will move across New Mexico and
later Texas. East of this system, a west-to-east baroclinic zone
will become established across the Mid Mississippi and Tennessee
Valleys through the end of the period.
With much of the CONUS remaining cool and stable through the period,
deep convective potential will be limited to the southwestern and
south-central portions of the country. Cold air/steep lapse rates
aloft accompanying the upper system will support potential for
sporadic lightning flashes across portions of the Four Corners
states. Later, as downstream warm advection increases across the
south-central U.S., elevated convection -- including scattered
thunderstorms -- will likely evolve during the second half of the
period. Muted instability, however, precludes appreciable risk for
severe storms.

the western NOAM Coast early -- is forecast to shift gradually
inland.
As this western feature slowly progresses, showers -- and areas of occasional/embedded lightning -- are expected, from the West Coast
states into the Great Basin/Four Corners states. Meanwhile, showers
and scattered thunderstorms will spread across the southeastern
quarter of the country -- as far north as the Ohio Valley and
Mason/Dixon line.
Early in the period, a few stronger storms may be ongoing across the
Arklatex region, near an Arkansas surface low and trailing cold
front. Any lingering/low-end severe risk appears at this time
insufficient to warrant any severe-weather probabilities. As the
low/front, and associated area of convection -- continues eastward
into a more stable environment, potential for robust convection
should gradually diminish with time.

...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
Severe weather is not expected across the U.S. on Tuesday.
...Discussion...
As an upper low/trough over the Gulf of Alaska digs southeastward
toward the West Coast, a trough/low over the Great Basin/Desert
Southwest will be kicked east-northeastward across the central and
southern Rockies into the Central and Southern Plains. As this
occurs, weak cyclogenesis is expected into the second half of the
period over the western Gulf of Mexico vicinity, along a remnant
baroclinic zone.
Showers, and a few thunderstorms, are expected across portions of
the central and southern Appalachians/southeastern U.S. early in the
period. Some increase in shower/thunderstorm activity may occur
during the second half of the period just a bit farther west, into
the lower Mississippi Valley area and central Gulf Coast states, as
low-level warm advection increases in response to the approach of
the next system. However, with the boundary layer expected to
remain slightly stable, and elevated instability minimal, convection
should remain generally weak/disorganized.
Elsewhere, showers -- and an occasional/embedded lightning flash --
are expected across portions of the Southwest.

No severe weather is expected across the U.S. on Wednesday.
...Discussion...
A fast-moving short-wave trough -- progged to be exiting the central
and southern Plains region early in the period, will continue
tracking eastward, clearing the East Coast overnight. Meanwhile,
sharp upper troughing will remain aligned roughly along the West
Coast through the period. In between, ridging aloft will exist,
with anticyclonic flow expanding to include most of the U.S. by the
end of the period, in the wake of the departing eastern system.
At the surface, high pressure will largely prevail over most of the
country. A surface front lying across the Southeast and into the
Gulf will sag southward with time, as a weak frontal wave moves off
the southeastern U.S. coast. Overnight, this front should cross the
Florida Peninsula, reaching far south Florida and the Keys by
28/12Z.
Showers and occasional thunderstorms are expected over portions of
the Southeast, in the vicinity of the aforementioned surface
boundary. Weak instability suggests disorganized -- and for the
most part elevated -- convection. Elsewhere, showers will affect
portions of the West Coast in the vicinity of the nearly stationary
upper trough, but any sporadic lightning flashes inland should
remain few and far between, insufficient for inclusion of a 10%
thunder area.

Severe weather is not expected across the U.S. Thursday.
...Discussion...
The upper pattern over the U.S. will continue to feature troughs
near both the East and West Coasts, and a broad area of anticyclonic
flow covering central portions of the country. Some evolution with
respect to the eastern trough is expected, as one shorter-wavelength
feature shifts into the western Atlantic, and is replaced by a low
advancing southeastward out of Canada and into the Northeast.
Meanwhile, the more steady-state western trough will make very slow
eastward progress toward the West Coast.
At the surface, high pressure will prevail east of the Rockies, with ridging/continental air spreading southward across nearly the entire
Gulf of Mexico. In the West, a weak Pacific front will move
gradually onshore, in advance of the aforementioned upper system.
Showers are expected over the West Coast area through much of the
period, as the trough aloft slowly advances. Although an
occasional/isolated lightning flash may occur inland within the
broader area of weak/low-topped convection, coverage is currently
expected to remain too sparse to warrant inclusion of a 10% thunder
area.

...Discussion...
An upper low/trough over the Northeast will gradually drift
eastward/offshore, ahead of the much-more aggressive advance of the
western U.S. trough toward the central and southern Plains. This
trough, with embedded short-wave energy lying just of the southern
CA coast at the start of the period, will advance quickly eastward
across the Southwest, acquiring negative tilt with time as it
reaches the central/southern High Plains Saturday morning.
As this trough advances, surface cyclogenesis will occur, likely in
the southern Rockies vicinity. In response, southerly low-level
flow will permit above-surface theta-e advection to increase. With
remnants of the surface cP airmass lingering, surface-based
convection is not expected. However, showers over the Southwest
will expand eastward with time, with an increase in elevated
convection expected across the Texas/Oklahoma Panhandle region late.
Lightning flashes will likely be embedded within this area of
convection as it spreads eastward, though overall should remain
sporadic through the period.

A mid-level low/short-wave trough initially expected to be centered
over the central/southern High Plains region, is forecast to move
steadily east-northeastward through the period. The feature should
reach the middle Mississippi Valley vicinity during the evening, and
then continue into/across the Midwest/Ohio Valley region overnight.
At the surface, an accompanying low is forecast to move across
Oklahoma/Kansas and into Missouri by evening, and then reach the
southern Illinois/southern Indiana area by Sunday morning. A
trailing cold front will move southeastward across the southern
Plains, and later across the Lower Mississippi Valley area and into
the northwestern Gulf of Mexico.
Showers will accompany the advance of the surface system,
particularly during the second half of the period across the
Tennessee Valley region and southward across the central Gulf Coast

...SUMMARY...
Severe thunderstorms are not expected on Sunday.
...Synopsis...
Guidance is in relatively good agreement that a mature/stacked
cyclone will be centered over the Mid MS/Lower OH Valleys early
Sunday. This system is then expected to move eastward as a shortwave
trough moves through it base, contributing to some re-strengthening
of the cyclone as well as secondary surface cyclogenesis over the
southern Appalachians and Carolina Piedmont. The resulting surface
low is then expected to track northeastward along the wedge front
and off NC coast by early Monday morning.
Modest low to mid-level moisture is forecast to be in place ahead of
this secondary surface low and its attendant cold front. Some
overlap will exist between this moisture and the moderate mid/upper
level flow surrounding the parent cyclone, primarily across northern
FL and southern GA. Given the strong vertical shear, some potential
for stronger storms exists in this area. However, limited heating
and poor lapse rates will temper buoyancy and the current
expectation is for only isolated thunderstorm coverage with little
severe potential.

morning. These features are expected to move gradually eastward
throughout the day, with the upper trough ending the period
extending southward along the East Coast and the upper ridge
covering much of the central CONUS. An additional shortwave trough
will likely extend from British Columbia southwestward into the
northwest Pacific Ocean early Tuesday morning.
Dry and stable conditions are anticipated across the CONUS, with the
lack of buoyancy precluding thunderstorm development. A few deeper
convective cores are possible within the frontal band associated
with the surface low attendant to the British Columbia shortwave as
it moves ashore. However, lightning coverage should remain less than

Upper ridging will cover a majority of the CONUS west of the MS
River early Tuesday morning, while upper troughing will extend along
the East Coast. The East Coast trough is then expected to become
increasingly negatively tilted as a shortwave trough progresses
through its base while an embedded upper low drifts over the
Northeast. The upper ridge is forecast to gradually dampen as it
moves across the Plains and into the MS Valley.
Lastly, upper trough initially extending from British Columbia into
the northeast Pacific will move eastward throughout the period. This
trough, which will feature very cold air aloft, will likely stretch
from the Canadian Prairie Provinces southwestward to a strong
embedded shortwave trough off the central/southern CA coast early
Wednesday morning.
Stable conditions are expected throughout the majority of the CONUS,
limiting thunderstorm potential. Deeper convective cores could
materialize within the frontal band moving through the Pacific
Northwest, where cold mid-level temperatures could result in a
lightning flash or two. Limited coverage and low potential for
occurrence precludes introducing any thunder areas.

Thunderstorms are not expected on Wednesday.
...Synopsis...
Upper pattern early Wednesday morning is expected to feature an
upper ridge over the central CONUS, flanked by two upper troughs.
Eastern upper trough will likely extend from the Northeast States to
the Bahamas while the western trough extends from the Canadian
Prairie Provinces to off the southern CA coast.
This overall pattern is forecast to move eastward, dominated by the
western CONUS troughing and its embedded shortwaves. Eastward
progression of this trough will result in surface cyclogenesis
across the High Plains, with the most dominant low emerging out of
the central High Plains and ending the period over eastern KS.
Significant cold air aloft will accompany this trough, with -30 deg
C at 500 mb reaching eastern UT/western CO by early Thursday.
Resultant steep mid-level lapse rates could result in deeper
convection as the upper trough approaches the central Rockies. A few
flashes may result, but profiles are generally expected to remain
entirely below freezing, limiting the charge separation needed for
lightning production. Stable conditions will preclude thunderstorms
elsewhere across the CONUS.

Thunderstorms are not expected on Thursday.
...Synopsis...
A broad and deep upper trough is forecast to cover much of the
western and central CONUS early Thursday morning, with modest upper
ridging in place east of this trough, from the TN Valley into
Quebec. A shortwave trough embedded within the larger trough is
expected to progress quickly eastward/northeastward across the
central Plains, and Mid MS/OH Valleys, reaching the Lower Great
Lakes region by early Friday morning. At the same time, another
shortwave trough is expected to move through the western periphery
of the parent trough, traversing over the Great Basin and Southwest
into the southern High Plains. Evolution of these waves will result
in broad upper troughing covering the entire CONUS by early Friday
morning.
The surface pattern early Thursday is expected to feature a large
trough from the southern Plains into western Ontario. Primary
surface low within this trough is forecast to move swiftly
northeastward throughout the day, progressing from eastern KS into
Lower MI. Cold front attendant to this low will sweep quickly eastward/southeastward, ending the period extended from Lower MI
southeastward into the Upper OH Valley and then back southwestward
into the central Gulf of Mexico.
Modest mid-level moisture will be in place ahead of this front from
the southern Plains through the Southeast. However, the stronger
forcing for ascent and the colder temperatures will remain displaced
north of the better low-level moisture. Additionally, widespread
cloud cover will limit heating. Consequently, the lack of buoyancy
will preclude thunderstorm development. Even with the expected lack
of thunderstorms, shallow convection near the surface low coupled
with strong low/mid-level flow could result convectively augmented
gusts across portions of the Lower MO and Mid MS Valleys.

Severe thunderstorms are not currently expected on Saturday.
...Synopsis...
Broad upper troughing will be maintained across the CONUS throughout
the entire period, supported by several embedded shortwave troughs.
One of these shortwave troughs is forecast to extend across the central/southern High Plains early Saturday. Expectation is for this
shortwave to progress eastward throughout the day, reaching the
Lower MO Valley/Ozark Plateau by Saturday evening and the TN Valley
by early Sunday morning.
A stationary front will likely extend from central FL westward
across the central Gulf of Mexico at the beginning of the period.
Eastward progression of the aforementioned shortwave will likely
induce modest moisture return, with the stationary front
transitioning to a warm from as it gradually moves northward.
Surface cyclogenesis is also anticipated along this boundary, with
the resulting low then tracking northeastward across the central FL
Peninsula.
Some enhancement of the mid/upper level flow is also anticipated as
this wave and attendant surface low move across FL, resulting in a
kinematic environment supportive of organized storms. However,
uncertainty remains regarding the thermodynamics, particularly in
the warm sector ahead of the low where antecedent warm low to
mid-level temperatures may limit deep convection. Currently, much of
the thunderstorm activity is expected to be elevated north of the
warm front. Even so, severe probabilities may be needed in later
outlooks if the probability for warm-sector storms increases and/or
the location of the front becomes more certain.

the coast, from southern LA to northern FL. Widespread showers and a
few elevated thunderstorms will impact the central Gulf
Coast/Southeast vicinity in this warm advection regime late in the

A moist air mass will exist ahead of the front from southern/eastern
TX through the central Gulf coast. While weak instability will exist
across the warm sector, where dewpoints will be in the upper 50s to
mid 60s F dewpoints, any thunderstorm activity will likely be
elevated on the cool side of the boundary in strong isentropic
ascent. Furthermore, any storms that develop in the warm sector
would likely be quickly undercut by the south/southeastward surging
cold front given shear vectors parallel to the boundary. While a
strong storm or two can not be ruled out, overall severe potential

A series of upper shortwave troughs from the central High Plains to
northwest Mexico will weaken as they shift east across the Plains
and Midwest. Strong surface high pressure will continue to develop
southward from Canada, enveloping much of the U.S. east of the
Rockies by Friday morning and bringing a very cold arctic airmass
southward. Thursday morning, a surface cold front will extend from
the TN Valley southwestward into south TX. A warm advection regime
will persist across the Gulf coast vicinity ahead of the upper
shortwave trough, with showers and isolated thunderstorms likely
ongoing across parts of the TX coastal plains into the lower MS
Valley.
Isentropic ascent with boundary-parallel deep-layer flow will result
in mainly elevated convection on the cool side of the boundary.
Surface dewpoints in the 60s F will be in place ahead of the southeastward-sagging cold front, and modest midlevel lapse rates
will aid in weak instability. While a strong storm or two can not be
ruled out, upper forcing will deteriorate as the ejecting shortwave
trough weakens. Effective shear also will remain poor in the absence
of stronger surface cyclogenesis, limiting the longevity of any
stronger elevated storms. As such, severe potential appears low at

elevated thunderstorms from the Upper Texas Coast toward the TN
Valley. While some warm-sector thunderstorms are possible, poor
lapse rates and weak instability will preclude severe potential.

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
THE FLORIDA PENINSULA...
...SUMMARY...
Isolated strong to severe thunderstorms appear possible Sunday
across parts of the Florida Peninsula.
...Florida...
Large-scale upper troughing will dominate the CONUS on Sunday. A
low-amplitude shortwave trough embedded within southwesterly
mid-level flow should advance northeastward over the Gulf Coast
states through the period. At the surface, a front near southern GA
and north FL is forecast to move little through the day. Substantial
low-level moisture is expected to remain confined along/south of
this front on Sunday.
The glancing influence of large-scale ascent associated with the
low-amplitude shortwave trough may encourage convective development
by Sunday afternoon across parts of the FL Peninsula. Forecast
soundings across this region suggest deep-layer shear will remain
strong enough to support organized updrafts. Diurnal heating of the
moist low-level airmass present along/south of the surface boundary
should foster weak to locally moderate instability by late
afternoon. The forecast combination of instability and shear appears
sufficient for isolated strong to severe thunderstorms, with
strong/gusty winds likely the main threat. This marginal severe risk
should diminish Sunday evening, as instability gradually weakens
with the loss of daytime heating.

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
THE SOUTHEAST...
...SUMMARY...
Isolated strong to severe thunderstorms may impact parts of the
Southeast on Monday.
...Southeast...
A highly amplified longwave upper trough should move eastward from
the Plains to the eastern states on Monday. An embedded mid-level
shortwave trough is forecast to advance northeastward from the
southern Plains across the lower MS Valley and Southeast, eventually
reaching the Mid-Atlantic by the end of the period. At the surface,
a low over the western Gulf of Mexico should develop northeastward
through the day. A warm front is forecast to advance northward along
the central Gulf Coast and into at least southern GA by Monday
night.
There is considerable uncertainty regarding how far north rich
low-level moisture will advance across the FL Panhandle and GA
Monday night ahead of the shortwave trough and deepening surface
low. The 00Z GFS and ECMWF show low to mid 60s surface dewpoints
moving farther north into GA compared to the NAM. At least weak
destabilization appears probable across the developing warm sector
late Monday evening and continuing overnight into early Tuesday
morning. The presence of a strong low-level jet and strengthening
mid-level southwesterly flow will likely foster enough deep-layer
shear to support storm organization. Given the forecast strength of
the low-level flow, both isolated strong/gusty winds and a couple
tornadoes appear possible in the vicinity of the northward-
developing warm front across the FL Panhandle and southern GA.
Too much uncertainty exists regarding the quality and northward
extent of the low-level moisture to support more than 5% severe
probabilities at this time. Additional storms should also occur
across much of the FL Peninsula during the day. Although deep-layer
shear is forecast to be weaker compared to locations farther north,
it should still be sufficient in concert with weak to potentially
moderate instability to support isolated strong to severe
thunderstorms, with occasional damaging winds the main threat.

...SUMMARY...
Organized severe thunderstorms currently appear unlikely on Tuesday.
...Synopsis...
A shortwave trough should continue moving quickly northeastward from
the OH Valley and Mid-Atlantic across much of the East Coast on
Tuesday. Primary surface low over the Mid-Atlantic vicinity is
forecast to develop towards southern New England through the morning
before moving offshore. An attendant trailing cold front will move
off the majority of the East Coast early in the period, ending
thunderstorm chances for all but the FL Peninsula.
...Eastern North Carolina...
Although the cold front may not quite clear NC Coast until the first
few hours of the period, the main forcing associated with a strong
low-level jet and the mid-level shortwave trough will likely be
displaced to the north of this region. With only weak low-level
convergence along the front anticipated, any potential severe risk
appears too conditional/uncertain to include low severe
probabilities at this time.
...Florida Peninsula...
A moist low-level airmass will likely remain in place ahead of the
cold front over much of the central/southern FL Peninsula through
the day. However, this region is expected to be displaced far to the
south of any appreciable large-scale ascent aloft. Stronger
mid-level flow and related deep-layer shear are also likely to
remain north of the warm sector. Accordingly, any thunderstorms
occurring along/ahead of the front should be rather disorganized,
with generally low severe potential.

...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
THE CENTRAL GULF COAST STATES...
...SUMMARY...
Isolated severe thunderstorms may occur late Wednesday night across
portions of the central Gulf Coast.
...Central Gulf Coast...
A large-scale upper trough will continue to dominate much of the
CONUS on Wednesday. Within this feature, a shortwave trough is
forecast to move eastward from the southern Plains towards the lower
MS Valley through the period. A strong low-level mass response
should occur ahead of the shortwave trough across parts of the
Southeast, particularly Wednesday evening/night. A weak surface low
initially over the western Gulf of Mexico should develop towards the
central Gulf Coast vicinity late in the period.
There is some uncertainty regarding how far inland a warm front
extending eastward from this low will develop. Still, surface-based
storms appear possible in the last 6 hours or so of the period (late
Wednesday into early Thursday) across coastal southern LA, southern
MS/AL, and the western FL Panhandle. Forecast soundings across this
region show a strongly veering wind profile with increasing speeds
from the surface through mid levels. Effective bulk shear likely
exceeding 50 kt will support organized storms, including the
potential for isolated supercells within a strong low-level warm
advection regime ahead of the surface low. If these storms can
become surface based as low-level moisture rapidly increases late
Wednesday, then they could pose a risk for a couple tornadoes,
isolated damaging wind gusts, and perhaps even some hail as
mid-level lapse rates modestly steepen with the approach of the
shortwave trough. A Slight risk has been included to account for
where the threat for surface-based storms appears more probable. The
5% risk area encompasses a broader portion of the central Gulf Coast
states to account for uncertainty in the track of the surface low
and related low-level moisture return.

...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
THE FLORIDA PANHANDLE...SOUTHEASTERN ALABAMA...AND SOUTHERN/CENTRAL
GEORGIA...
...SUMMARY...
Isolated strong to severe thunderstorms may occur across parts of
the Southeast on Thursday.
...Southeast...
A large-scale, highly amplified upper trough should advance eastward
from the Plains to the MS Valley on Thursday. A belt of strong
southwesterly mid/upper-level winds will likely exist over parts of
the Southeast through much of the period. Isolated strong to severe thunderstorms may be ongoing Thursday morning near coastal AL and
the western FL Panhandle in the vicinity of a surface warm front.
Current expectations are for a weak surface low to develop
northeastward from this region into central/eastern GA by early
Thursday evening. Low-level moisture return should also occur across
much of the FL Panhandle into southern and perhaps central GA as the
warm front also lifts northward. A strong, potentially 50+ kt
low-level jet should be in place over this region. Enhanced
mid-level flow and related deep-layer shear will be more than
adequate to support organized severe convection.
The primary limiting factor appears to be instability, which may be
rather weak owing to fairly poor mid-level lapse rates and only
modest diurnal heating across the warm sector. Even so, this weak
instability will probably be enough for surface-based storms.
Convection should increase in coverage and intensity through
Thursday afternoon along an eastward-moving cold front attendant to
the surface low, with additional storms possibly developing across
the open warm sector. Greatest potential for at least isolated
severe storms appears to be over parts of the FL Panhandle,
southeastern AL, and southern/central GA, where mid to upper 60s
surface dewpoints should be present. Given the strong low-level jet
and potential for storms to congeal into a line along the cold
front, at least isolated damaging wind gusts should be a threat.
Some low-level hodograph curvature should also prove favorable for a
couple tornadoes, especially if any discrete supercells ahead of the
line can interact with the warm front. Boundary-layer instability is
forecast to become less with eastward extent into north
FL/southeastern GA and the Carolinas. But, an isolated threat for
strong to severe thunderstorms may persist Thursday evening/night
across parts of central/eastern SC and coastal NC along/south of the
surface low and warm front.

Isolated thunderstorms may occur Friday across the Florida Peninsula

...Florida Peninsula...
A cold front will move southeastward across much of the FL Peninsula
through the day as a highly amplified upper trough continues
advancing over the eastern CONUS. Although low-level moisture is
expected to increase ahead of the front across the FL Peninsula,
forecast soundings across this region show very poor mid-level lapse
rates, which will likely limit instability. Low-level flow should
also veer to southwesterly ahead of the front, with only weak
convergence expected. Primary large-scale ascent associated with the
upper trough is forecast to remain generally to the northwest of the
FL Peninsula through the day, and it remains uncertain how much
convective development will actually occur along the front. Still,
strong flow at mid-levels will be present, and a strong wind gust
cannot be entirely ruled out if storms form. But, given all the
previously mentioned limiting factors, the potential for isolated
strong/gusty winds across any portion of the Florida Peninsula
appears too uncertain/conditional to include low severe
probabilities at this time.

...SUMMARY...
The risk for thunderstorms appears negligible across the U.S.,
Sunday through Sunday night.
...Discussion...
Models indicate that one short wave impulse will progress inland
across the British Columbia coast and Canadian Rockies during this
period, through the crest of initially amplified large-scale ridging
near/west of the Pacific coast, with another impulse trailing close
behind across the northeastern Pacific. As this occurs, downstream
troughing, including a couple of smaller-scale perturbations, is
forecast to turn east of the central Great Plains and southern
Rockies. Models differ concerning the evolution of the shorter
wavelength features, but weak to modest cyclogenesis appears
possible in association with the lead impulse, from the south
central Great Plains into lower Michigan by 12Z Monday. A trailing
cold front appears likely to advance across and east the Mississippi
Valley, and southward across the northwestern Gulf coast.
Despite the potentially favorable large-scale ascent associated with
this developing system, destabilization, including within the
evolving warm sector, will continue to be hampered by weak moisture
return from the Gulf of Mexico, lingering melting snow and ice, and
low cloudiness associated with the return flow above the residual
cool near-surface air mass. At this time, potential for
thunderstorms appears negligible Sunday through Sunday night.

The risk for severe thunderstorms appears negligible across the
U.S., Monday through Monday night.
...Discussion...
Models indicate that mid-level ridging will be maintained along an
east-west axis across the mid-latitude eastern Pacific through this
period. Within the westerlies to the north-northwest of this
feature, short wave ridging is forecast to build across the
northeastern Pacific into southwestern Alaska. As this occurs,
progressive downstream flow appears likely to take on an increasing northwesterly component near the British Columbia coast into the
Pacific Northwest, while remaining west-northwesterly to westerly
across the interior U.S. through the Atlantic Seaboard.
Within this regime, significant mid-level troughing shifting east of
the Mississippi Valley by 12Z Monday is forecast to continue
eastward. As it overspreads the Atlantic Seaboard late Monday
afternoon through Monday night, it may be accompanied by secondary
cyclogenesis off the middle and northern Atlantic coast, and a
strengthening cold front across the south Atlantic coast into the
adjacent western Atlantic.
Ahead of the front, an influx of moisture, off a moistening boundary
layer over the northeastern Gulf of Mexico, may contribute to weak
CAPE across the Florida Panhandle into parts of southern Georgia and
the Carolinas during the day Monday. However, it appears that this
instability will generally rooted above the boundary layer, and the
extent to which this may contribute to convection capable of
producing lightning remains unclear. Somewhat better potential for boundary-layer based, or near boundary-layer based, thunderstorm
development appears to exist ahead of the front across northern
portions of the Florida Peninsula and coastal North Carolina by
Monday evening. Substantially higher thunderstorm probabilities,
though, appear focused offshore Monday night, near the Gulf Stream,
in association with more favorable phasing of low-level
destabilization and forcing for ascent.

The risk for thunderstorms appears negligible across the U.S.,
Tuesday through Tuesday night.
...Discussion...
The area of lowest mid-level heights over the Arctic, initially to
the north of Alaska and the Canadian Yukon and Northwest
Territories, may slowly begin to shift east-southeastward during
this period. Otherwise, models indicate that a fairly prominent,
blocking mid-level ridge will persist across the southern
mid-latitude eastern Pacific.
Within the stronger, broadly anticyclonic westerlies between these
two features, a number of short wave troughs will remain progressive
across the northeastern Pacific into British Columbia and the
Pacific Northwest. In association with the perturbations
progressing inland, it appears that flow will trend broadly cyclonic
across the Intermountain West into the Mississippi Valley, while
downstream flow trends broadly anticyclonic into the northern and
mid Atlantic Seaboard, in the wake of large-scale troughing rapidly
progressing offshore into the western Atlantic.
These developments will be accompanied by further low-level cooling
and drying across the northeastern Gulf of Mexico and the south
Atlantic Seaboard, including the Florida Peninsula. Although a
southerly return flow may develop across the western Gulf of Mexico
into the northwest Gulf coast region, it still appears that
low-level moistening will be quite modest due to slow boundary-layer
recovery in the wake of the recent Arctic intrusion.
...Northern Rockies vicinity...
Insolation beneath the western periphery of a broad pocket of cold
mid-level air (including -35 to -40C around 500 mb) may contribute
to weak boundary-layer based CAPE and scattered convective
development Tuesday afternoon, although thermodynamic profiles
probably will be mostly below freezing. It might not be out of the
question that some of this activity could become capable of
producing lightning, but it seems mostly likely that any such
occurrences will be sparse in coverage and short-lived, and
thunderstorm probabilities appear less than 10 percent.
...South Florida...
Prior to the passage of the cold front, there appears some risk for
isolated thunderstorm development near southeast coastal areas,
though probabilities exceeding 10 percent may be mostly over the
coastal waters.

Aside from a small portion of the Colorado Plateau into adjacent
upper Rio Grande River vicinity, the risk for thunderstorms appears
negligible across much of the U.S., Wednesday through Wednesday
night.
...Discussion...
At higher latitudes, it appears that a deep mid-level low may
continue shifting east-southeastward across the Arctic Circle
vicinity of northern Canada during this period. In lower latitudes,
models suggest that subtropical ridging centered over the Yucatan
Peninsula vicinity will remain relatively modest/flat.
Meanwhile, as a fairly vigorous short wave impulse progresses around
its northern through northeastern periphery, blocking mid-level
ridging over the subtropical eastern Pacific is forecast to build
and expand, with broad mid-level ridging also building within the
westerlies across the Aleutians through much of the northeastern
Pacific.
Downstream of the short wave impulse approaching the Pacific coast,
models indicate that the split in the westerlies inland of the
Pacific coast will become more pronounced, with short wave ridging
spreading across the Canadian Rockies into the Canadian Prairies
within a developing northern branch. Farther east, larger-scale
mid-level troughing is forecast to evolve across the Great Lakes
into the Northeast, while a vigorous short wave perturbation within
the developing southern branch continues to dig across the Great
Basin into the Southwest.
It appears that a vigorous leading short wave impulse within the
northern branch troughing will be accompanied by a modest surface
cyclone. As cold surface ridging builds beneath confluent mid-level
flow across the Great Plains into the Ohio Valley, a sharpening
surface cold front trailing the cyclone is expected to advance into
the Gulf and south Atlantic Coast states by late Wednesday night.
...Texas...
A light southerly return flow is expected to continue off a
gradually moistening boundary layer over the southwestern Gulf of
Mexico. While a relatively warm and dry lower/mid troposphere
probably may continue to generally suppress convection, NAM forecast
soundings are suggestive of an environment becoming at least close
to thunderstorm development (in association with destabilization and
lift above the southward advancing cold front) across parts of
central Texas to the east-northeast of the Hill Country by 12Z
Thursday.
...Colorado Plateau vicinity...
Strong mid-level cooling and lift associated with the digging
southern branch short wave may contribute to thermodynamic profiles
conducive to convection capable of producing lightning Wednesday
afternoon.

The risk for severe thunderstorms appears negligible across the

Models indicate that a large, blocking ridge, centered at mid-levels
over the southern mid-latitude eastern Pacific (between 140-160 W),
may reach peak prominence during this period. It appears likely to
remain in phase with large-scale ridging within the westerlies,
which may continue to build north of the Aleutians and through the
Gulf of Alaska. Intensifying mid-level flow on the northeastern
periphery of this feature will take on an increasing northwesterly
component near the British Columbia coast into the northern U.S.
intermountain region, with a broad area of stronger mid-level height
falls on the leading edge of this regime.
In response to these developments, models indicate that a vigorous
short wave impulse, initially near the southern Rockies, within the
southern branch of split westerlies, will accelerate
east-northeastward across the southern Great Plains and Ozark
Plateau vicinity by 12Z Friday. However, this will be preceded east
of the Rockies by the development of fairly expansive cold surface
ridging across much of the Great Plains through the Ohio and
Tennessee Valleys. And models indicate that any associated wave
development, along the front demarcating the leading edge of this
air mass across southeast Texas through the lower Mississippi
Valley, will be weak.
A continuing southerly return flow in advance of this wave may
support a weak to modest influx of moisture off the northwestern
Gulf of Mexico. In the wake of the wave, it appears that the
shallow leading edge of the cold air will nose south of the Texas
Rio Grande River vicinity, and into the western Gulf of Mexico, by
the end of the period.
...Gulf States...
Models suggest that stronger mid/upper forcing for ascent will be
focused above/well to the cool side of the initially stalling
low-level frontal zone. This is expected to overspread parts of
north central and northeast Texas late Thursday afternoon, before
developing east-northeastward into the vicinity of the southern
Appalachians by late Thursday night, with warm layers aloft capping
moisture return to the south. Associated destabilization is
forecast to remain weak, but sufficient to contribute to
thermodynamic profiles supportive of thunderstorm development. This
may coincide with a strengthening west-southwesterly jet to 40-50 kt
in the 850-700 mb layer, but with the core of this feature also
focused above a substantive surface-based stable layer, the risk for
severe weather appears negligible (particularly given the weak CAPE
evident in the forecast soundings).
...Columbia Plateau vicinity...
Large-scale ascent and strong mid-level cooling (500 mb temps to -30
to -35 C) accompanying the vigorous digging short wave may
contribute to thermodynamic profiles supportive of convection
capable of producing lightning, mainly Thursday afternoon.

The risk for severe thunderstorms appears negligible across the

...Discussion...
The southern mid-latitude eastern Pacific blocking ridge may undergo
some suppression during this period, as the first in a series of
significant short wave troughs progresses into/around its
northwestern periphery. However, ridging will remain a prominent
influence across much of the eastern Pacific. At mid-levels, models
indicate that the broad ridge axis within the westerlies may take on
a positive tilt across the northeastern Pacific, with ridging
building into the British Columbia and adjacent Pacific Northwest
coast by 12Z Saturday.
Downstream flow will take on an increasingly northerly component
across the interior West, with significant mid-level troughing
digging into the Intermountain West/Rockies vicinity. It appears
that this will force one of the more significant preceding
perturbations east-northeast of the Rockies, toward the Great Lakes
region. At least broadly cyclonic mid-level flow is expected to
prevail across much of the U.S., but models indicate that
subtropical ridging, centered near the northwest Caribbean, will
begin to build into portions of the Southeast. At the same time, a
deep mid-level vortex centered near/north of Hudson Bay may maintain
a considerable influence.
In lower levels, the leading edge of Arctic air may begin to advance
across the central Canadian/U.S. border area by late Friday night.
Otherwise, as the center of expansive preceding cold surface ridging
shifts east of the Atlantic Seaboard, a warming southwesterly to west-southwesterly return flow will develop east of the Rockies
through the Atlantic Seaboard. It appears that one remnant frontal
zone may linger across southeastern Texas into the lower Mississippi
Valley, as well as to the lee of the southern Appalachians, while
surging northward beneath a 40-70 kt southerly 850 mb jet axis,
through the Tennessee Valley and Cumberland Plateau.

Thunderstorm activity may be ongoing at 12Z Friday in a corridor
across the Ark-La-Tex into northern Mississippi and Alabama, aided
by moisture return and destabilization above the frontal inversion.
This likely will be supported by mid-level forcing associated with a
remnant short wave impulse emerging from the Southwest, which may
continue to contribute to thunderstorm development as it overspreads
the Tennessee Valley into the Cumberland Plateau by late Friday
afternoon. A trailing perturbation may support additional
thunderstorm activity, rooted within the elevated moist return flow,
to the west and northwest Friday night. Even if the boundary layer
to the south of the retreating front modifies more substantively
than suggested by the NAM, relatively warm layers aloft and weak
forcing for ascent are currently expected to suppress thunderstorm
development. The risk for severe hail with the elevated convection
currently appears negligible.
...Columbia Plateau...
Insolation beneath a -30 to -35 C 500 mb cold pocket may contribute
to weak boundary-layer instability and areas of convective
development across a sizable portion of the northern intermountain
region and northern Rockies. However, thermodynamic profiles
conducive to the production of lightning may be most concentrated
across parts of the Columbia Basin, where boundary-layer warming
above freezing appears most probable.

...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
The risk of severe thunderstorms currently appears negligible across
the U.S. for Saturday through Saturday night.
...Discussion...
Suppression of an initially prominent blocking high and amplified
mid-level ridging across the eastern Pacific appears likely to
continue during this period, as a significant short wave trough
progresses around its northern periphery, across the northeastern
Pacific. A more pronounced split in the downstream flow may develop
inland of the Pacific coast, as short wave ridging shifts across
British Columbia and adjacent portions of the U.S. Pacific
Northwest. By late Saturday night, the leading edge of this regime
may begin to translate to the north of a vigorous short wave impulse
sharply digging across the Great Basin into the lower Colorado River
vicinity of the Southwest.
Across and east-northeast of the Rockies, mid-level flow is forecast
to trend increasingly confluent, between more prominent subtropical
ridging across the Gulf of Mexico into the Southeast and a vigorous
short wave impulse pivoting southeastward out of the Arctic. As
this perturbation digs across Saskatchewan and Manitoba, an
increasingly sheared short wave impulse is forecast to accelerate
northeast of the Wyoming/Colorado Rockies toward the Upper Midwest,
while a more amplified downstream impulse accelerates east of the
Great Lakes into the Canadian Maritimes. Each of these latter
features may be accompanied by developing surface cyclones, while
cold surface ridging builds beneath the confluent flow across the
Great Plains, as far south as the Texas/Oklahoma Panhandle region by
12Z Sunday.
The net result of these developments in lower levels is expected to
be the evolution and/or reinforcement of a frontal zone near the
northern periphery of the mid-level subtropical ridging, from near
or south of the Texas Big Bend into the Mid Atlantic Coast vicinity. South/southwesterly low-level return flow, off a still modifying
boundary layer over the Gulf of Mexico, will contribute to
moistening and destabilization along and north of this front. This
will become the focus for areas of scattered thunderstorm
development Saturday through Saturday night, with models indicating
that warm layers aloft and subsidence will suppress convective
development to the south of the front.
Models do indicate that southwesterly flow around the 850 mb level
may strengthen to 40-50+ kt across the Arkansas/Kentucky/Tennessee
vicinity late Saturday afternoon and evening. It might not be out
of the question that this could contribute to a risk for organizing
storms with the potential to producing damaging surface gusts.
However, much may depend on how close convection forms to the
surface frontal position (and the depth of the near-surface stable
layer below the convection). With this uncertain, and model output
still indicating only generally weak destabilization, severe
probabilities appear less than 5 percent at the present time.

...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
Severe thunderstorms are not currently forecast for Sunday.
...Synopsis...
A series of upper shortwave troughs will migrate across portions of
the U.S. on Sunday, bringing a large swath of strong southwesterly
flow stretching from the southern Plains through the Great
Lakes/Ohio Valley. The first shortwave trough will pivot eastward
from the Great Lakes through New England. The second shortwave
trough will become increasingly cut-off from northern stream flow as
a closed low develops over the lower CO Valley, and pivots eastward
toward the AZ/NM border by Monday morning. Downstream from the
western upper shortwave trough, weak height rises and warming
temperatures between 850-700 mb are forecast. At the surface, a cold
front will stretch from the lower OH Valley to central TX early in
the period. Surface high pressure will build over the central
Plains, and the cold front will slowly shift southward, extending
from coastal NC toward northern LA and arching southwest into
south-central TX by Monday morning.
...South-Central TX into LA/MS...
Severe potential near the aforementioned cold front is uncertain and
fairly conditional at this time. While 60s F dewpoints will exist
across the warm sector, surface heating will be limited near the
front due to widespread cloudiness. Additionally, isolated elevated thunderstorms and showers are likely to be ongoing. Weak
instability, largely driven by moderately steep midlevel lapse rates
is forecast. However, most guidance shows at least a weak capping
inversion near 700 mb. Furthermore, while effective shear will be
moderate to strong, deep-layer flow will be parallel to the front,
and low-level convergence weak. Additionally, large-scale forcing
will by weak as the upper trough remains well to the west. While a strong/marginally severe storm can not be completely ruled out, the
overall threat appears too uncertain/conditional to include probs at
this time.

An upper low over the southern Rockies will pivot eastward to the
southern Plains on Monday. Moderate to strong west-southwesterly
deep-layer flow will persist over the Plains toward the lower MS

eastward from the Plains to the Midwest and lower Great Lakes
vicinity. Meanwhile, a cold front will extend from the Delmarva
southwestward to northern LA and south-central TX Monday morning.
The cold front will continue to move southeastward through the
period, moving offshore the TX coast and stalling near the central
Gulf coast and northern FL by Tuesday morning. Widespread cloudiness
and ongoing showers and thunderstorms will limit destabilization.
Furthermore, poor midlevel lapse rates and a capping inversion
around 700 mb will preclude severe-thunderstorm potential.

An upper low and associated shortwave trough over the southern
Plains will migrate toward the southern/central Appalachians by
Wednesday morning. This will maintain moderate south/southwesterly
deep-layer flow and warm advection over portions of the Gulf Coast
states for much of the period. A weak surface low is forecast over
southwest Louisiana at the beginning of the period, with a cold
front extending southward from the low over the western Gulf. The
low will develop east/northeast along the central Gulf coast during
the day, and toward the South Carolina coast by the end of the
period. This will allow a warm front to lift northward along the
central Gulf coast into southern AL/GA and northern FL. While this
will create a narrow warm sector, destabilization is expected to
remain weak due to poor midlevel lapse rates and limited surface
heating. Isolated thunderstorms are expected near and to the north
of the warm front, but forecast soundings indicate this activity
will remain elevated. Overall, severe potential appears low on
Tuesday.

An upper low over the southern Plains will develop eastward as an
open wave across the southeastern states. At the surface, a weak low

Gulf return flow will remain limited to the TX coastal Plain and
portions of the Sabine Valley. However, low level moisture will
remain shallow, with low 60s dewpoints hugging the coast while upper
40s to 50s dewpoints extend further north. Steepening midlevel lapse
rates will help contribute to less than 500 J/kg MLCAPE. Stronger
forcing will remain displaced to the north/northeast of low-level
moist axis, but moderate shear and weak elevated instability should
allow for isolated thunderstorms ahead of a surface cold front.
Severe storms are not expected.

Thunderstorm development will be possible across parts of the West

...DISCUSSION...
Southwest mid-level flow will become established across much of the
western and central U.S. on Tuesday as an upper-level moves
southward across the far eastern Pacific. Large-scale ascent
associated with the eastern edge of the eastern Pacific weather
system will overspread the coastal areas of the western U.S. This
combined with steep lapse rates will make isolated lightning strikes
possible along the coasts of Washington, Oregon and California
Tuesday and Tuesday night. Isolated thunderstorms will also be
possible further inland across central California Tuesday afternoon.
Further east into the central U.S., southwest mid-level flow will
become established during the day on Tuesday. In response, low-level
flow will increase across the Great Plains resulting in moisture
advection in the southern and central Plains. A pronounced 50 to 65
kt low-level jet is forecast to develop Tuesday night from the
southern Plains north-northeastward into the lower Missouri Valley.
This warm-advection regime may support isolated thunderstorm
development Tuesday night, along a trough of low pressure extending northeastward from the central Plains into the Upper Midwest. At
this time, thermodynamic profiles on forecast soundings near the
trough do not appear to have enough instability for a severe threat.
Any storms that form should be elevated in nature.

A marginal threat of severe thunderstorms with hail and strong wind
gusts will be possible from parts of far northern Oklahoma into
western Missouri, from late Wednesday afternoon through Wednesday
night.
...Far Northern Oklahoma/Kansas/Western Missouri...
Southwest mid-level flow will be in place on Wednesday across much
of the central U.S. At the surface, a low is forecast to move
northeastward across the mid Missouri Valley as a cold front
advances southeastward into southeast Nebraska and northern Kansas.
A belt of strong low-level flow will maintain moisture advection
ahead of the front during the day. Surface dewpoints are expected to
gradually increase near the moist axis, reaching the mid to upper
50s F from Oklahoma north-northeastward into northwest Missouri and
southeast Iowa. Instability will increase along this corridor during
the afternoon with model forecasts suggesting that MLCAPE values
could reach the 500 to 1000 J/kg range. Forecast soundings along the
corridor of instability from Wichita north-northeastward to Kansas
City show a capping inversion this afternoon but gradually weaken
the cap during the evening. This combined with a strengthening
low-level jet will result thunderstorm development with a gradual
increase in convective coverage in the late afternoon and evening.
As the low-level jet strengthens during the evening, continued
moisture advection should allow MUCAPE values to increase in the
1000 to 1500 J/kg range. This, combined with effective shear near 50
kt, along with 700-500 mb lapse rates approaching 8.0 C/km, should
support a hail threat. A wind-damage threat may also develop across
parts of northern Oklahoma and southeast Kansas where thunderstorms
could become more closely surface-based during the late evening and
overnight period.

THE SOUTHERN PLAINS AND OZARKS...
...SUMMARY...
A marginal severe threat may develop across parts of the southern
Plains and Ozarks from late Thursday afternoon into the overnight
period.
...Southern Plains/Ozarks...
Southwest mid-level flow will be maintained on Thursday across much
of the southern, central and northeastern U.S. At the surface, a
cold front is forecast to move slowly southward across northern
Oklahoma and southern Missouri. A dryline should be in place by late
afternoon from northwest Texas into western Oklahoma, where a triple
point is forecast. As surface temperatures warm during the day, a
corridor of instability should develop from northwest Texas into
central Oklahoma. Isolated convective initiation will be possible
along the northern edge of the instability. Thunderstorm development
is also expected to occur further east-northeast into parts of
northern Arkansas and southern Missouri. Thunderstorm development is
likely to continue along parts of the front during the late evening
and overnight period.
The severe threat for Thursday is highly conditional. The first
uncertainty is moisture. Low-level moisture is forecast to gradually
increase from late afternoon into the evening across the southern
Plains. Some models suggest that a small pocket of moderate
instability will develop in northwest Texas and southwest Oklahoma
by evening, where MUCAPE could approach 1500 J/kg. This combined
with effective shear in the 60 to 70 kt range and steep mid-level
lapse rates, would make a hail threat possible. Further to the
east-northeast into central and northeastern Oklahoma, surface
dewpoints are forecast to reach the lower 60s F. However,
instability in this part of Oklahoma is forecast to be less than in
areas further southwest. This combined with subsidence, associated
with a low-amplitude upper-level ridge, may marginalize any severe
threat. If a marginal severe threat does develop, it could extend as
far east as southern Missouri where the models are in agreement that
convection will develop in the late evening and overnight period.

...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE
SOUTHERN PLAINS...
...SUMMARY...
A severe threat may develop Friday and Friday night across parts of
west Texas and Oklahoma. Large hail and wind damage will be
possible.
...Southern and Central Plains/Western Ozarks...
An upper-level low will move eastward across the Desert Southwest on
Friday as a shortwave ridge moves eastward into the mid Missouri
Valley and western Ozarks. At the surface, a quasi-stationary front
is forecast to be located from the southeast Texas Panhandle to
central Oklahoma and to northern Arkansas. South of the boundary
surface dewpoints are forecast to be in the upper 50s F in
northwest Texas and lower to mid 60s F across Oklahoma and Arkansas. Instability along the northern edge of the moist sector should
remain weak most of the day. Thunderstorm development will be
possible north of the front in northern Oklahoma, southern Kansas
and southwest Missouri. By late afternoon, a corridor of instability
is forecast from west Texas north-northeastward into southwest
Oklahoma, where isolated thunderstorms could develop in the northern
part of this corridor. During the evening, large-scale ascent will
increase across the southern High Plains raising the convective
potential over time.
There is considerable uncertainty concerning the forecast on Friday,
with significant spread among model solutions. An ensemble approach
would place a pocket of moderate instability over northwest Texas by
early evening with MUCAPE reaching the 1500 to 2000 J/kg range. This
combined with 60 to 70 kt of effective shear and 700-500 mb lapse
rates of 7.5 to 8.0 C/km would be favorable for supercells with
large hail. The current thinking is that a cluster of storms with
embedded supercells will develop across northwest Texas in the early
evening and spread northeastward into western Oklahoma during the
mid to late evening. In addition to hail, a wind damage threat is
expected to develop. A slight risk area has been maintained in this
corridor. A conditional severe threat may develop further to the
west across the southern Texas Panhandle, but surface dewpoints will
be considerably lower.
Further to the east in northeast Oklahoma and southeast Kansas, a
marginal severe threat may develop Friday evening. The low-level jet
will support this elevated convection, which is forecast to shift
northward with time during the overnight period. Hail will be the
primary threat with this activity but a strong wind gusts or two can
not be ruled out.

...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
THE SOUTHERN PLAINS...
...SUMMARY...
A severe threat is expected to develop across parts of the southern
Plains, where large hail and wind damage will be possible. A
marginal severe threat may also develop in parts of the central
Plains.
...Southern and Central Plains...
An upper-level low will move northeastward into the central High
Plains on Saturday as a 90 to 110 kt mid-level jet moves across the
southern High Plains. At the surface, a dryline will develop and
move eastward into western Oklahoma and west-central Texas Saturday
afternoon. To the east of the dryline, a relatively moist airmass
will be in place with surface dewpoints in the upper 50s to near 60
F. Thunderstorms are forecast to develop ahead of the dryline during
the afternoon from the eastern Texas Panhandle southward into
west-central Texas. The storms are expected to move eastward across
western Oklahoma and northwest Texas during the late afternoon and
early evening.
Elevated thunderstorms are forecast to be ongoing at the start of
the period from parts of the Texas Panhandle eastward across
northern Oklahoma and southern Kansas. To the south of this
activity, a corridor of instability will develop during the late
morning and afternoon. Model consensus suggests that MLCAPE values
could reach peak near 1000 J/kg along an axis from San Angelo
northward to near Childress. This combined with 0-6 km shear near 50
kt and steep mid-level lapse rates will be favorable for supercells
with large hail. As the eastern edge of the mid-level jet moves into west-central Texas during the late afternoon, deep-layer shear is
forecast to increase to around 65 kt. This will make conditions
increasingly favorable for severe storms during the early to mid
evening. A squall-line with wind damage potential may develop during
the early to mid evening. However, any severe threat that develops
could remain somewhat isolated due to the weak instability.
Further north into Kansas, the exit region of the mid-level jet is
forecast to overspread the region during the afternoon. This will
create strong lift and deep-layer shear, favorable for an isolated
severe threat. Although organized storms can not be ruled out,
instability is expected to be very weak due to outflows from the
morning convection. Areas that are not affected by the morning
convection may have potential for marginally severe wind gusts and
hail.

...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
Appreciable severe risk is not evident at this time across the U.S.
on Monday.
...Discussion...
An upper low initially over the central Plains is forecast to lift northeastward with time, becoming increasingly weak/sheared through
the period. Farther west, a second low entering northern
California/western Oregon early, is expected to pivot southeastward
across the Great Basin toward the Desert Southwest with time.
At the surface, a weak west-to-east baroclinic zone is forecast to
evolve with time, from Oklahoma eastward into the Mid South.
A band of generally weak convection should be crossing western
portions of Tennessee and Kentucky/Mississippi/eastern Louisiana and
vicinity early in the day, with some embedded/occasional lightning.
Though weak instability should limit convective intensity across
most areas, through most of the period, a small window of
opportunity for slightly more robust convection may evolve during
the afternoon, in the west-central Alabama vicinity. With shear
expected to be plenty sufficient for organized/rotating storms,
ample instability would yield potential for severe weather.
However, at this time, it appears that even through the afternoon,
CAPE should remain minimal at best. Therefore, though a stronger
storm capable of gusty winds or even a brief tornado cannot be ruled
out within a zone centered over the west-central Alabama area,
potential appears too low to highlight with a risk area at this
time.

...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE OKLAHOMA/SOUTHEASTERN KANSAS VICINITY EASTWARD INTO
MISSOURI/ARKANSAS...
...SUMMARY...
Severe weather will likely evolve during mainly during the evening
across the western Oklahoma vicinity, and then spreading across part
of Kansas, Oklahoma, and north Texas, and into Missouri/Arkansas and
vicinity. Large hail will likely be the main risk, though locally
damaging wind gusts, and possibly a tornado, will also be possible.
...Synopsis...
A fast-moving/compact upper low will move quickly across the Four
Corners to the southern Rockies by evening, and then will continue
eastward toward Oklahoma overnight. This low will be the primary
feature of interest over the U.S. through the period.
At the surface, an initially diffuse low over the northeastern New
Mexico vicinity will consolidate/deepen with time, moving across the
Texas and Oklahoma Panhandle during the evening, and into western
Oklahoma overnight. Ahead of the low, a dryline will mix eastward
across the southern High Plains during the afternoon and early even,
eventually to be overtaken by a Pacific cold front which should move
eastward across the southern Plains through the end of the period.
...Western Oklahoma vicinity to Missouri/Arkansas/the Arklatex...
Low-level moisture will stream northward across the southern Plains
beneath a capping inversion through the day, as southerly flow
strengthens with time in response to deepening low pressure shifting
into the southern High Plains. While the cap will likely hinder
convective development with southward extent across Texas, a
conditional late afternoon/early evening initiation of storms may
occur near the dryline over western Oklahoma/western North Texas.
With favorably strong/veering flow with height but modest low-level
moisture -- due to this area likely remaining on the northwestern
fringe of the moisture return -- large hail, and locally gusty
winds, would likely be the primary risks with initial
severe/supercell storm development into the early evening hours.
After dark, as the upper system continues to advance and the surface
low deepens, a strengthening low-level jet -- and associated warm
advection/QG ascent -- will likely yield a substantial blossoming of
convective development, much of which will remain elevated and
particularly so north of an anticipated Kansas/Oklahoma border-area
warm frontal zone. As such, large hail will likely remain the
primary severe potential overnight, as storms increase in coverage
through the period. Farther to the south into Texas, low-level
capping will remain a concern. However, within a zone south of the
warm front and north of the more capped airmass -- i.e. ahead of the
surface low across Oklahoma and possibly north Texas, and later
perhaps extending as far eastward into southwestern Missouri/western
Arkansas -- only a shallow stable layer is expected due to a
diurnally cooled boundary layer. Here, along with hail potential, a
couple of stronger, near-surface-based storms could also pose some
risk for locally damaging winds, or even a tornado or two, through
the remainder of the period.

...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE
EASTERN HALF OF ARKANSAS AND SMALL PORTIONS OF ADJACENT STATES TO
THE ALABAMA VICINITY...
...SUMMARY...
A broad area of severe weather potential -- including risk for large
hail, damaging winds, and several tornadoes -- is anticipated
Wednesday from the Arkansas/Louisiana vicinity eastward across the
central Gulf Coast states/southern Appalachians.
...Synopsis...
A vigorous upper low moving across central portions of the U.S. will
once again be the primary upper feature of interest, as it tracks
from the Texas/Oklahoma Panhandle vicinity early, to southern
Missouri through the end of the period. Ahead of this system,
moderately strong/accompanying flow will spread across the lower
Mississippi and Tennessee Valleys and central Gulf Coast states with
time.
At the surface, a low is forecast to cross Oklahoma during the day,
and then should cross the Ozarks through the evening eventually
reaching the western Illinois vicinity by 18/12Z. Widespread
thunderstorms, and substantial/accompanying severe risk, can be
expected in advance of this system.
...The AR/LA vicinity eastward to portions of TN/GA and the FL
Panhandle...
Showers and thunderstorms are forecast to be ongoing from Kansas
southward to Texas ahead of the advancing upper system and
associated cold front, and eastward across the central Gulf Coast
states in a zone along a west-to-east warm front. Some ongoing
severe risk will likely exist at the start of the period.
With time, as moisture streams northward from the Gulf of Mexico
beneath steepening lapse rates, modest heating will push
surface-based CAPE into the 1000 to 2000 J/kg range with a broad
warm sector stretching from the AR/LA vicinity eastward to the
southern Appalachians. Convection is forecast to increase in
response to the destabilization, as persistent UVV occurs not only
in the vicinity of the cold and warm fronts, but also more broadly
within the general warm-advection regime.
Southerly low-level flow, veering and increasing to around 50 kt
from the west/southwest at mid levels will provide shear favorable
for supercells. Additionally, ample low-level shear is expected to
evolve through the day -- particularly near the aforementioned warm
front which should drift northward across Arkansas and align
west-northwest to east-southeast from far southern MO to central GA
by early evening. As such, tornado risk may be maximized near this
boundary -- across the AR area during the day, and then later
increasing eastward across AL and perhaps into GA as well, as
low-level flow increases into the evening/overnight.
In addition to tornado potential -- including the risk for a couple
of significant tornadoes across a broad area represented by the
ENH/30% risk area, large hail and damaging winds will also occur in
some areas. Risk will continue through the overnight hours,
tapering from west to east across the lower Mississippi Valley but
continuing across the central Gulf Coast states and into the
southern Appalachians through 18/12z.

...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS EXTENDING FROM
GEORGIA NORTHWARD ACROSS THE CAROLINAS...
CORRECTED TO INCLUDE SIG AREA IN PROB GRAPHIC
...SUMMARY...
Severe weather is expected from southern Virginia southward into
Florida, and westward into portions of eastern Kentucky/eastern
Tennessee Thursday. Along with potential for hail and locally
damaging winds, several tornadoes -- a couple of them possibly
strong -- are anticipated.
...Synopsis...
A vigorous upper low initially progged over eastern portions of the
Ozarks, is expected to continue steady eastward progression through
the period, weakening gradually as it crosses the Appalachians and
reaches Virginia/the Carolinas by the end of the period. In the
wake of this feature, ridging will expand to encompass much of the
country, as an eastern Pacific trough nears the Pacific Northwest
Coast late.
As the upper system advances, a surface low just ahead of cyclone
aloft will likewise progress eastward, crossing the mountains during
the evening before redeveloping offshore through the end of the
period. A trailing cold front will cross the southern Appalachians
through the first half of the period, before moving offshore
overnight. A second day of fairly widespread -- and possibly
locally substantial -- severe risk is anticipated.
...Parts of the Mid and Southern Atlantic Coast states, and westward
into eastern parts of KY/TN...
Showers and thunderstorms -- and some attendant severe weather risk
-- will be ongoing Thursday morning, particularly over the southern Appalachians region. With associated clouds streaming northeastward
across the middle and southern Atlantic Coast states, hindered
heating -- and thus tempered diurnal destabilization -- is expected.
Still, with northward advection of higher theta-e air east of the
mountains ahead of the advancing surface system causing a rapid
retreat of the remnant damming front, sufficient CAPE should evolve
to support vigorous storms -- with intensity of the updrafts aided
by strongly veering/increasing flow with height.
Storms should increase through midday west of the mountains across
parts of eastern Kentucky/eastern Tennessee ahead of the synoptic
system. Relatively low-topped storms -- and local risk for
all-hazards severe weather -- will likely evolve.
Meanwhile, storms are expected to spread across Georgia and into the
Carolinas ahead of the advancing cold front, along with some
pre-frontal cellular development within a zone of strong warm
advection east of the mountains. Given ample instability and a very
favorably sheared environment, relatively widespread and locally
substantial severe weather potential is indicated -- including risk
for a few strong tornadoes. Potential is expected to expand
northward toward/into southern Virginia with time as the front
retreats into the evening, before convection begins to end from west
to east as the cold front moves toward -- and eventually off -- the
Atlantic Coast.

Severe weather is not expected across the U.S. on Friday.
...Discussion...
As the primary/compact vort max moves off the Carolina/Virginia
coasts early, secondary troughing will move eastward across the
eastern U.S. through the period. The primary cold front -- already
off most of the East Coast Friday morning, will move slowly
southward across Florida through the period. Showers and perhaps a
few lightning strikes may linger near the coastal Carolinas very
early in the period, with a few showers and a thunderstorm also
possible over southern parts of Florida during the day.
In the West, a cold front will advance across the northern
Rockies/Great Basin, as a large upper trough moves gradually inland.
Scattered showers will accompany the inland advance of this system
with sporadic lightning strikes possible in a few areas as well.

...SUMMARY...
Severe storms are not expected over the U.S. on Sunday.
...Discussion...
While weak southern-stream troughing continues to linger over the
southeastern U.S., a larger western trough -- comprised of phasing
between shorter-wavelength systems in the northern and southern
streams -- will continue advancing across the western half of the
U.S. through the period.
With time, the faster-moving northern short-wave feature will begin
to separate from its southern-stream counterpart, moving quickly
across the Canadian Prairie and adjacent northern Plains states
through Monday morning. Meanwhile, the slower southern trough may
begin to close off over the New Mexico overnight.
Weak instability -- and correspondingly weak convection -- will
accompany the passage of the southern-stream trough across the
southwestern quarter of the country. Sporadic lightning flashes may
accompany this convection as it spreads across the Four Corners area
through the evening. Overnight, as a low-level jet ramps up over
the southern Plains in response to height falls ahead of the
advancing system, meager elevated destabilization may support
occasional lightning overnight as far east as portions of Kansas and
Oklahoma through the end of the period.

...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
Severe thunderstorms are not currently forecast on Tuesday.
...Synopsis...
A negatively tilted upper shortwave trough over the Ozark Plateau
will lift north/northeast to the Great Lakes on Tuesday. Meanwhile,
another shortwave trough will develop southward across the Four
Corners vicinity, maintaining a larger-scale upper trough across the
western two-thirds of the CONUS. A surface low attendant to the
Midwestern upper shortwave trough will develop northeast from
northwest MO to WI, sweeping a cold front across the mid-MS Valley.
The southern extent of the cold front will stall across AR into
eastern and central TX as moderate south/southwesterly deep-layer
flow maintains a warm advection regime across the south-central
states to the Lower MS Valley.
...Central/Northern IL Vicinity..
Surface dewpoints will generally remain in the 40s to low 50s ahead
of the surface low/cold front. Cloud cover and showers also will
limit stronger heating across much of the mid-MS Valley, but
steepening midlevel lapse rates will support at least weak
instability. Moderate shear and strong background flow of around
30-40 kts between 850-700 mb could aid in a few loosely organized
thunderstorms or line segments along the cold front and near the
surface low. Given weak instability and the possibility that
convection could be elevated, any damaging-gust potential appears
conditional, precluding probabilities at this time.
...Lower MS Valley...
Showers and thunderstorms will likely be ongoing Tuesday morning
ahead of the cold front across AR into northern LA and eastern TX.
This activity will continue eastward into MS and southeast LA
through the afternoon. Stronger ascent will quickly be lifting
northeast of the region as the upper trough ejects northeast toward
the Great Lakes. Overall severe potential appears low at this time,
as stronger destabilization will be limited by heavy rain.
Nevertheless, moderate shear and modest lapse rates will overspread
the region, and some gusty winds could accompany any stronger cells.

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM EASTERN
TEXAS INTO THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY...
...SUMMARY...
Isolated severe thunderstorms are possible from eastern Texas into
the Lower Mississippi Valley on Wednesday.
...Synopsis...
There is still quite a bit of uncertainty and spread among various
forecast guidance regarding Wednesday. A broad area of southwesterly
flow will exist from the southern Plains eastward as a shortwave
trough over the Upper Midwest weakens and spreads northeast into
Canada, while another upper shortwave trough ejects eastward from
the Four Corners to the southern Plains by Thursday morning. A
surface trough will develop across central TX while a warm front
lifts northward across LA/MS, and a broad warm sector centered on
the Lower MS Valley will be characterized by mid to upper 60s
dewpoints. The progression of the Texas surface trough/cold front
and the Gulf coast warm front remain uncertain and will have
implications for severe potential on Wednesday into early Thursday
morning.
...Eastern TX to the Lower MS Valley...
A strong warm advection regime will persist across the central Gulf
Coast, and heavy rainfall will likely be the main hazard for the
region during the Day 3 period. However, at least some
low-end/isolated severe thunderstorm potential appears possible.
Ongoing rain and isolated thunderstorms will persist through the
period, limiting stronger heating during the day. However, mid/upper
60s dewpoints beneath moderate midlevel lapse rates will support
MLCAPE as high as 1000-2000 J/kg. At least some weak inhibition will
persist given the lack of stronger heating, and weak subsidence
between the two upper shortwave troughs may suppress organized
severe potential for much of the day. Wind profiles will improve
after peak heating, with effective shear greater than 40 kt
forecast. Upper forcing will remain weak for most of the period
until the western upper shortwave trough kicks out into the Plains
during the last 3-6 hours of the period. As this occurs, a surface
cold front will sharpen and shift east across central/eastern TX.
Overall, the thermodynamic and kinematic environment could support
at least isolated severe potential with all hazards possible.
However, expected heavy rain, weak forcing, and timing of mid/upper
level and surface features is resulting in low confidence. For now,
low-end Marginal severe probabilities will be introduced for a
conditional threat for embedded supercell storms in areas of ongoing precipitation, from Wednesday afternoon into early Thursday morning.

...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER A PORTION
OF THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY AND SOUTHEAST STATES...
...SUMMARY...
A potential outbreak of severe storms including strong tornadoes,
large hail and damaging wind will exist Thursday afternoon into the
overnight across a portion of the lower Mississippi Valley and
Southeast States.
...Lower Mississippi Valley and Southeast States...
A robust shortwave trough will move from southern TX early Thursday
northeast through the lower MS Valley during the day and into the OH
Valley overnight. Thursday morning a cold front will extend from the
Great Lakes southwest to a weak surface low in eastern TX, then
south into the western Gulf. In response to the ejecting shortwave
trough, the cyclone is forecast to undergo significant deepening as
it develops northeast during the day. A cold front will accelerate
through the lower MS Valley and into the Southeast States, while a
warm front initially from northeast TX into northern LA and central
MS lifts northward to near the TN border by evening.
It is likely that elevated storms will be ongoing in warm advection
regime across northern MS, AL and TN. This activity is expected to
continue lifting northward allowing for destabilization from the
south with time. Rich low-level moisture with upper 60s to near 70 F
dewpoints will advect northward through warm sector contributing to
moderate instability with up to 2000 J/kg MLCAPE. Potential will
exist for discrete storms to develop in the warm sector as the
boundary layer destabilizes during the afternoon. Vertical wind
profiles with very strong shear and large 0-1 km hodographs will
support supercells capable of producing strong tornadoes and large
hail. Activity will spread northeast through the lower MS valley
during the day and into the TN Valley by late afternoon into the
evening. Additional storms may also develop along the cold front
with linear structures capable of damaging wind.
...OH Valley...
Widespread early storms during the first half of the day lower
confidence in more than A SLGT/MRGL risk for this region at this
time. However, some destabilization is expected by late day or
during the evening. Potential will exist for a line of storms to
develop along the cold front with damaging wind and QLCS tornadoes
the main threats. The SLGT risk may need to be expanded farther
north in later outlooks.

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER A PORTION
OF THE SOUTHEAST STATES AS WELL AS NORTHEAST KANSAS...
...SUMMARY...
A few strong storms will be possible Friday over a portion of the
Southeast States as well as a portion of northern Kansas.
...Carolinas through southern Georgia...
A progressive shortwave trough will continue northeastward into the
Northeast States Friday. A strong low-level jet initially from
eastern NC into the Middle Atlantic will move offshore by mid day.
Tendency will be for the deeper forcing and stronger low-level winds
to lift northeast away from the moist warm sector present across the
Carolinas into the Gulf Coast States. A corridor of modest
instability should evolve in the pre-frontal warm sector in the
presence of strong deep shear. While a few strong storms with
locally strong wind gusts and possibly hail might develop along the
cold front during the day, tendency for low-level winds to veer and
weaken in the presence of only shallow forcing suggests overall
severe threat should remain marginal.
....Lower Mississippi Valley region...
The front will stall along southern portions of the Gulf Coast
States during the day, but should begin to move back northward
during the evening as a southerly low-level jet strengthens.
Destabilization and isentropic ascent resulting from this process
will contribute to the development of mostly elevated storms during
the evening and overnight. A few instances of hail and locally
strong wind gusts might occur with some of this activity.
...North-central through northeast Kansas...
A weak surface low is expected to develop in association with a
minor shortwave trough ejecting northeast through the Central Plains
during the afternoon. Low-level moisture will be limited in this
region, but strong surface heating and steep lapse rates will
contribute to marginal instability. A few strong storms may develop
in the vicinity of a trough/dryline feature and spread east through north-central KS. Strong vertical shear will be present, but
uncertainty regarding amount of destabilization and overall low
confidence in scenario precludes more than a MRGL risk category at
this time.

lower Mississippi through Tennessee Valley regions. Other strong to
severe storms are possible across a portion of the Midwest. Isolated
damaging wind and large hail are the main threats.
...Lower Mississippi through Tennessee Valley region...
Some thunderstorms will probably be ongoing early Saturday, mainly
across a portion of the TN Valley. There is some uncertainty
regarding how these early storms evolve, but this activity will
probably shift northeast and weaken with time. Under the influence
of a broad fetch of southwesterly low-level winds, richer moisture
with surface dewpoints in the low to mid 60s F will advect northward
into this region contributing to moderate instability with up to
1500 J/kg MLCAPE. Other storms might develop during the evening or
overnight within the warm advection regime as the low-level jet
strengthens. A cold front associated with a northern stream
shortwave trough will approach this region from the northwest and
likely contribute to the development of additional storms overnight,
likely consolidating into lines and clusters. This activity will be
embedded within strong vertical wind profiles supporting the
potential for a few organized structures capable of mainly isolated
strong to damaging wind gusts and hail.
...Midwest region...
Low-level moisture will be more limited in this region. However,
cold air aloft will compensate and the atmosphere could become at
least marginally unstable as the boundary layer warms during the
afternoon. Storms may initiate along frontal zone within a strongly
sheared environment supportive of a few organized storms capable of
isolated large hail and damaging wind.

...SUMMARY...
Strong to severe storms are possible from the Carolinas into the
Middle Atlantic region Sunday afternoon. A few strong to severe
storms will also be possible from the central and southern
Appalachian region into a portion of the Tennessee Valley and
Southeast States.
...Mid Atlantic into the Carolinas...
An intense low-level jet will shift from the southern and central
Appalachians into the Carolinas and Mid Atlantic during the day in
association with a progressive northern-stream shortwave trough. A
warm front will move northward through the Mid Atlantic during the
day prior to the arrival of a cold front. Upper 50s to low 60s F
dewpoints will advect through the warm sector contributing to modest instability as the surface layer warms with up to 1000 J/kg MLCAPE
possible. Thunderstorms are expected to develop along and just ahead
of the cold front as it advances into this region during the late
afternoon and early evening. This activity will be embedded within
strong deep layer wind profiles that will support bowing structures
as well as a few supercells. Damaging wind will be the main threats,
but a few tornadoes and some hail will also be possible before the
front moves offshore during the evening.
...Ohio through Tennessee Valleys and Southeast States...
Thunderstorms will be in progress early Sunday along a cold front
from the OH Valley into a portion of the Southeast States within a
marginally unstable environment. These storms will be embedded
within strong deep layer winds and vertical shear supportive of
embedded organized structures including bowing segments. Some of
this activity will pose an ongoing threat for isolated damaging wind
as it advances east during the morning.

...SUMMARY...
A marginal threat for damaging wind gusts and hail may develop
across parts of the Arklatex and lower Mississippi Valley Tuesday
night.
...Arklatex/Lower Mississippi Valley...
An upper-level trough is forecast to move across the central and
northern Plains on Tuesday as southwest mid-level flow remains in
place from the southern Plains to the Northeast. At the surface, a
cold front is forecast to advance quickly southeastward into the
Arklatex and mid Mississippi Valley. Ahead of the front, moisture
advection could enable surface dewpoints to reach the lower 60s F
Tuesday night from northeast Texas to northern Mississippi. Model
forecasts suggest that scattered thunderstorm development will be
possible along and ahead of the front, mainly after midnight. MUCAPE
near 1000 J/kg and effective shear around 40 kt, evident on forecast
soundings, would make hail and marginally severe wind gusts
possible.

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
THE WESTERN GULF COAST...SOUTHEAST...SOUTHERN

...SUMMARY...
Thunderstorm development will be possible on Wednesday from the
western Gulf Coast northeastward into the Carolinas and Virginia.
Strong wind gusts and hail will be the primary threats.
...Western Gulf Coast/Southeast/Southern
Appalachians/Carolinas/Virginia...
An upper-level trough is forecast to move eastward across the
central U.S. on Wednesday. At the surface, a cold front is forecast
to advance southeastward into the southeastern U.S. being positioned
form the western Gulf Coast to the southern Appalachians by midday.
As surface temperatures warm during the day, pockets of weak
instability are expected to develop, with surface dewpoints ahead of
the front in the lower to mid 60s F. Increasing instability and
low-level convergence along and just ahead of the front will likely
result in thunderstorm development during the afternoon. Near the
front, deep-layer shear is forecast to be in the 45 to 55 kt range.
This combined with steep low-level lapse rates will make isolated
damaging wind gusts a possibility. Hail could also occur with the
stronger cores. Any severe threat is expected to be marginal and
confined to the mid to late afternoon when surface temperatures will
be maximized.

A progressive low-amplitude flow pattern will encompass the Lower 48
on Sunday. A mid-level trough is forecast to move southeast from
British Columbia into the Pacific Northwest/northern Rockies as an

flow will advect moisture north through the Great Plains into parts
of the Upper Midwest. Isolated showers and thunderstorms are
possible primarily Sunday evening/night near the terminus of a
developing LLJ within a strengthening warm air advection over the
Upper Midwest.
Farther south, a weakening mid-level disturbance over TX may result
in a few showers and possibly a couple of thunderstorms. However,
thunderstorm coverage is currently expected to remain sparse,
precluding a thunderstorm highlight.

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS CENTRAL AND
SOUTHERN MINNESOTA INTO WESTERN WISCONSIN...
...SUMMARY...
Isolated strong to severe thunderstorms are possible across parts of
the upper Mississippi Valley on Monday.
...Synopsis...
A flattened mid-level ridge is forecast over the MS Valley with
several disturbances located over parts of the West and
south-central Canada. The mid-level trough over Saskatchewan is
forecast to move east into western Ontario during the period and
glance the Upper Midwest. An attendant cold front will push
southeastward across parts of MN into the Dakotas while trailing
westward into parts of the Interior West. The westward extension of
the front will push into the ID/UT/NV vicinity Monday and Monday
night. A pronounced lee trough/dryline will extend from the
southern High Plains to near the CO/KS border by early Monday
evening.
...Upper Midwest...
The northern extent of a warm sector is forecast to destabilize on
Monday as mid-upper 50s dewpoints contribute to a weak to moderately
unstable airmass ahead of a cold front. It appears the cold front
will serve as a focus for scattered showers and thunderstorms to
develop during the afternoon/evening. Steep 700-500 mb lapse rates
7-8 deg C/km owing to cold 500 mb temps (around -18 deg C) will
potentially favor hail growth with the stronger updrafts. If a
cluster can organize during the evening, a wind/hail risk may
persist well after dark as a LLJ strengthens over IA.
...TX-OK Panhandles...
Strong heating is expected to occur over the southern High Plains in
the vicinity of the dryline. Model guidance is currently indicating
only upper 40s to lower 50s dewpoints but very steep low to
mid-level lapse rates will combine to yield 500-1500 J/kg MLCAPE
with a veering wind profile gradually strengthening with height into
the mid levels. Localized erosion of the cap could result in one or
two storms developing during the 21-00z period, but storm coverage
will likely remain very limited if convective initiation occurs.

...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR CENTRAL KANSAS
INTO SOUTHWEST MISSOURI AND ADJACENT PORTIONS OF OKLAHOMA AND
ARKANSAS...
...SUMMARY...
Severe thunderstorms are possible portions of the central Great
Plains into the western Ozarks late Tuesday afternoon through
Tuesday night.
...Central Great Plains into the Ozarks...
A mid-level low and attendant trough, initially over western WY and
the eastern Great Basin, will move east-southeastward to the central
High Plains. A belt of strong cyclonically curved 500 mb flow will
move through the base of the trough and overspread a destabilizing
warm sector across the central and southern Great Plains. In the
low levels, a surface cyclone over western KS will develop eastward
and elongate as a cold front over the central High Plains surges
southward into northwest TX and the northwest half of OK by early
Wednesday morning.
A capped but gradually moistening boundary layer will spread
northward into northern OK and KS during the day on strengthening
southerly low-level flow. Strong deep-layer ascent near the surface
low will likely favor initial thunderstorm development during the
afternoon. Steep 700-500 mb lapse rates (8-9 deg C/km) and strong
flow will support storm organization with large hail and severe
gusts the primary hazard. A strengthening LLJ during the evening
over OK/KS and associated isentropic lift will probably lead to
additional storms and the organization of a thunderstorm cluster
moving east-southeast during the night into parts of southeast KS
and adjacent parts of OK/AR/MO.
Farther south across OK, thunderstorm development is less likely
during the day owing to the aforementioned cap. Nonetheless, a low
probability scenario for a storm or two southward along the dryline
cannot be ruled out. It seems plausible the risk for isolated to
scattered storms will focus overnight across northern and eastern OK
as strong large-scale forcing promotes isolated to scattered storms.
Hail/wind would be the primary risks with this activity.

...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR THE ARKLATEX
INTO THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY...
...SUMMARY...
Scattered severe thunderstorms are possible across the lower
Mississippi Valley with other isolated severe storms possible
farther north over the middle Mississippi Valley.
...Synopsis...
A neutral-tilt mid-level trough and associated closed low will
slowly move eastward from KS into MO while becoming negatively
tilted by early Thursday. In the low levels, an elongated area of
low pressure centered over KS will develop/deepen as it moves north-northeastward into IA by early evening. A cold front will
progress eastward across the lower MO Valley and Ozarks while an
effective boundary decelerates across the lower MS Valley.
A strong warm conveyer belt Wednesday morning across the Ozarks will
likely lead to widespread clouds and showers/thunderstorms across
much of this area and areas north. Richer low-level moisture
(surface dewpoints in the 60s) will reside across the lower MS
Valley. Heating and a plume of 7-7.5 deg C mid-level lapse rates
will contribute to moderate buoyancy developing (1000-1500 J/kg) in
the Arklatex east to the MS River during the day. Scattered to
widespread thunderstorms coalescing into one or more bands will
likely evolve during the day and push eastward across the MS Valley
during the evening. All hazards will be possible with storms across
the Arklatex due in part to moist low levels co-located with
enlarged hodographs. An eventual transition to a mainly a damaging
wind threat is expected with a tornado risk possibly lingering well
after dark across the lower MS Valley.
Farther north, greater uncertainty exists for severe across parts of
the lower MO Valley during the day in wake of earlier-day
shower/thunderstorm activity. It is possible a bi-modal severe risk
develops via a narrow corridor of destabilization immediately ahead
of the front and focused near the surface low over northwest
MO/southwest IA during the late afternoon. Isolated damaging gusts
appear to be the primary threat across the middle MS Valley later in
the day and into the evening before this activity weakens as it
encounters weaker instability.

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR ALABAMA AND
WESTERN GEORGIA WESTWARD INTO THE ARKLATEX...
...SUMMARY...
Isolated severe thunderstorms are possible across the northern Gulf
Coast states on Thursday and Thursday night.
...Synopsis...
A mid-level low will move from northern MO northeastward to WI by
Friday morning. The mid-level height gradient across the lower MS
Valley/Mid South will gradually relax as a belt of strong
west-southwesterly flow weakens during the period. An occluded low
over the Upper Midwest will slowly fill and become increasingly
displaced from a warm sector as frontolysis occurs over the OH
Valley into the Mid South.
...TN Valley westward to the Arklatex...
Showers/thunderstorms will likely be ongoing Thursday morning across
parts of MS/AL/TN within a plume of weak instability (250-750 J/kg
MLCAPE). A linear band of storms will likely push eastward across central-northern AL into eastern TN/western GA during the day, while
slowly weakening as upper support becomes increasingly displaced
from the region. The risk for wind damage may accompany the
stronger storms. Farther north over TN into the OH Valley, scant
instability will likely preclude strong thunderstorm development.
By the late evening into the overnight, strengthening low-level warm
air advection will commence across the Arklatex into the lower MS
Valley. Upwards of 1000-2000 J/kg MUCAPE with 35-40 kt effect shear
may result in elevated strong to locally severe thunderstorms
developing after midnight. Hail is the primary risk but a damaging
gust cannot be ruled out.

GULF COAST STATES AND PARTS OF GEORGIA...
...SUMMARY...
Scattered strong to severe thunderstorms are possible across the
northeast Gulf Coast on Saturday.
...MS/AL/GA/FL...
A mid-level disturbance over the Gulf Coast states, to the south of
a potent mid-level trough over eastern KS/MO, will likely support a continuation of an MCS across the Gulf Coast during the morning and
perhaps persisting into the afternoon. A moist and moderately
unstable boundary layer (1000 J/kg MLCAPE) and strong flow, will
favor a risk for damaging winds given the likelihood of a linear
convective mode. Model guidance (particularly the latest ECMWF)
shows this activity moving east over the northeast Gulf Coast. The
northern periphery of the severe risk will probably be constrained
by a transition to weaker instability/less moisture farther
north/northeast across northern and eastern parts of GA.
...TN/KY...
As the primary mid-level shortwave trough moves from eastern KS to
northern IN during the period, strong southerly low-level flow will
transport moisture north during the day to the north/east of an MCS
over the Deep South. A surface low initially over northeast AR will
deepen as it moves to southern Lake Michigan by mid evening.
Widespread clouds will likely limit the amount of surface heating
during the day as a band of showers/thunderstorms on the northern
portion of an MCS moves north-northeast across TN during the
morning. A risk for isolated damaging gusts could continue into the
start of the day-3 period (Saturday morning) and rejuvenate during
the day as the activity spreads northeast towards the OH River.
However, instability will likely remain weak owing to the
aforementioned concern with heating. This activity will likely
weaken by early evening across parts of the OH Valley.

An upper low over the lower Great Lakes will merge with an upper low

westerly flow will encompass much of the south-central and southeast
U.S. east of the Rockies. Meanwhile, a shortwave trough will develop
southward across the Pacific Northwest/Great Basin vicinity. At the
surface, broad low pressure beneath the upper low over the Great
Lakes will persist. A stalled front near the central Gulf Coast will
lift northward, and moisture will spread across TX and the Lower MS
Valley vicinity ahead of another cold front surging south/southeast
late in the period. A combination of capping and weak forcing will
limit severe potential ahead of the cold front, though showers and
elevated thunderstorms will be possible across parts of the southern
Plains to the Lower MS Valley.

The overall pattern will not change much on Tuesday compared to the
Day 2/Monday period. An upper low will continue to deepen and
develop slowly southward over the northwestern U.S. while another
upper low persists over the Great Lakes. This will maintain
low-amplitude westerly flow across the southern tier of the U.S. A
couple of weak perturbations will migrate through this westerly flow
aloft, from the southern Plains to the Lower MS Valley. A stalled
front will extend across southern TX eastward along the central Gulf
Coast vicinity. Surface dewpoints in the 60s will remain over
southern TX, eastward along the Gulf Coast. Weak warm advection will
likely support areas of showers and thunderstorms in the vicinity of
the stalled front. However, inhibition, coupled with weak forcing
and modest deep layer flow, will limit severe potential.

Severe storms are not forecast on Thursday.
...Synopsis...
An upper low over the lower Great Lakes region will pivot eastward
to the Mid-Atlantic/Northeast coast by Friday morning. Further west,
the upper low over the Great Basin will become an open wave as it
emerges into the Plains. At the surface, a cold front will extend south/southwest from a low offshore from DE/MD into southern GA and
then likely just offshore the central Gulf Coast and into southern
TX. The front will drop southward across the northern FL Peninsula
while stalling over the northern Gulf. In response to the ejecting
western upper trough, weak lee low development across eastern NM
will result in modest low-level warm advection across TX. While Gulf
moisture will mostly be cut off thanks to the cold front draped over
the region, upper 50s to near 60 F surface dewpoints should work
their way northward toward the Permian Basin after 00z. Showers and
perhaps some elevated thunderstorms will be possible, but severe
potential appears limited by weak instability and a strong cap.

Valid 161200Z - 171200Z
...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
Severe storms are not currently forecast on Friday.
...Synopsis...
Moderate westerly deep-layer flow will persist across Texas and the
Gulf Coast states on Friday. An upper shortwave impulse will migrate east/northeast from the central/southern Plains toward the mid-MS
Valley. A weak surface low or trough will progress eastward across
TX and weaken during the day before strong high pressure builds
southward down the Plains. A cold front will push south/southeast
across much of TX during the afternoon and evening, moving offshore
into the Gulf early Saturday morning.
...Southeast TX...
Some strong elevated thunderstorms could develop across parts of
southeast TX during the afternoon/evening, as 7-7.5 C/km midlevel
lapse rates will remain over the region and contribute to weak to
moderate MLCAPE. Forecast guidance varies quite a bit in the
evolution of the surface low/trough across TX and the timing of the
cold front. Additionally, several rounds of thunderstorms are
expected across the region between Day 1/Wed and Day 3/Fri,
resulting in uncertainty in the quality of any warm sector and
possibly outflow boundaries, etc. While some threat for hail or
gusty winds could develop, uncertainty is too high to include
probabilities at this time.

...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
Organized severe thunderstorms appear unlikely across the contiguous
United States on Sunday.
...Synopsis and Discussion...
A belt of strong mid-level westerly flow should be maintained across
much of the lower MS Valley and Southeast on Sunday. At the surface,
high pressure should dominate much of the CONUS. A cold front should
stall and become nearly stationary across the northern FL Peninsula
by Sunday afternoon. With low/mid-level flow largely parallel to the
front, convergence is forecast to remain very weak. Accordingly,
convective development along this boundary appears quite uncertain
on Sunday. Even if storms form across the northern FL Peninsula,
they will probably remain elevated. At this point, the potential for
organized severe storms along/south of the front across the FL
Peninsula appears unlikely given poor low-level convergence and
nebulous large-scale ascent.
Elsewhere, isolated thunderstorms appear possible through the day
across parts of the mid MS Valley in association with a shortwave
trough, and over portions of the southern Rockies and vicinity as
large-scale ascent with a separate upper trough/low overspreads this
region. Very limited instability is expected to preclude a severe
threat for both areas.

...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
The potential for severe thunderstorms on Monday across parts of the
central and southern Florida Peninsula appears low at this time.
...Synopsis and Discussion...
Rich low-level moisture will likely remain confined to parts of the
central and southern FL Peninsula to the south of a front on Monday.
Even though instability should increase through the day across this
region, neutral height fields aloft and weak convergence along the
front suggest a fairly limited potential for surface-based storms
and related severe threat across this region. In general, guidance
suggests that the tendency will be for most storms that can form to
remain elevated to the north of the surface boundary.
Farther north, isolated thunderstorms may occur through the day
across parts of eastern NC and southeastern VA as a shortwave trough
moves over this region. Limited low-level moisture and related very
weak instability should preclude a severe threat. Elsewhere,
occasional lightning flashes may also be noted over portions of the
southern High Plains as an upper trough moves eastward, and across
parts of the central Rockies and vicinity as a separate upper trough
digs southward over this area through the period.

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
THE CENTRAL/SOUTHERN FLORIDA PENINSULA...
...SUMMARY...
Isolated strong to severe storms appear possible on Tuesday across
portions of the central and southern Florida Peninsula.
...Florida Peninsula...
Within large-scale upper troughing across much of the
central/eastern CONUS, a low-amplitude shortwave trough should move
across parts of the Southeast on Tuesday. A persistent surface
boundary across the central FL Peninsula may attempt to lift
northward as a warm front as a weak low develops from the
northeastern Gulf of Mexico to the western Atlantic through the
period. Convection may be ongoing Tuesday morning to the north of
the surface boundary in a modest low-level warm advection regime. It
remains somewhat uncertain how far north the front will advance
across the northern/central FL Peninsula through the day, and this
boundary will likely serve as the northern limit to an isolated
severe threat. With a moist low-level airmass remaining in place
across the central/southern FL Peninsula, it will not take much
diurnal heating to foster weak to locally moderate instability by
Tuesday afternoon. Both low and mid-level wind fields are forecast
to strengthen through the day, supporting strong deep-layer shear.
Organized severe thunderstorms posing mainly an isolated large hail
and damaging wind threat may occur along/south of the front as the
glancing influence of large-scale ascent with the shortwave trough
overspreads this region.

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
THE MID-ATLANTIC...
...SUMMARY...
Isolated strong to severe storms capable of producing mainly
damaging winds may occur across parts of the Mid-Atlantic on
Wednesday.
...Mid-Atlantic...
Within large-scale upper troughing over the eastern CONUS, a
shortwave trough is forecast to move quickly east-northeastward
across the Mid-Atlantic and over New England on Wednesday. A surface
low initially centered over PA should likewise develop northeastward
into southern New England by Wednesday afternoon while deepening. An
attendant cold front will sweep eastward across the Mid-Atlantic
through the day. Modest low-level moisture return should occur ahead
of this cold frontal passage, with low to mid 50s surface dewpoints
possible per consensus of latest guidance. Diurnal heating across
the warm sector should foster the development of weak instability by
late Wednesday morning. Even though MLCAPE may only reach about
250-500 J/kg ahead of the front, it should be sufficient to support surface-based storms. Current expectations are for a low-topped
convective line to develop along the cold front by early Wednesday
afternoon. These storms should move quickly eastward in tandem with
the cold front, and off the Atlantic Coast by late afternoon or
early evening. Given the forecast strength of the low/mid-level flow accompanying the shortwave trough, isolated strong to damaging wind
gusts appear possible with this line where enough destabilization
can occur.
...South Florida...
A cold front should progress southward across this region through
the period. Large-scale ascent and stronger mid-level flow
associated with upper troughing over the eastern states is expected
to remain well north of the southern FL Peninsula. Given that
low-level winds are forecast to veer to westerly early in the
period, convergence along the front will likely remain quite weak.
Therefore, the potential for organized severe thunderstorms
currently appears low.

...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
Severe storms are not forecast across the contiguous United States
on Thursday.
...Synopsis and Discussion...
A positively tilted upper trough should move eastward across the
Great Basin and Southwest on Thursday. Large-scale ascent preceding
this feature will encourage lee cyclogenesis across the
southern/central High Plains, with a low-level mass response
occurring over a greater portion of the southern/central Plains
through the period. A southerly low-level jet across these regions
will aid in the transport of Gulf moisture northward across TX and
into OK by late Thursday night. Most guidance indicates that the
airmass across this region will remain capped as an EML advects
eastward from the higher terrain of the Southwest and northern
Mexico. Still, low-level warm advection should increase Thursday
evening/night as the low-level jet gradually strengthens. Elevated
storms may occur in this regime on a fairly isolated basis. Although instability will be increasing as this warm advection process
occurs, it will likely remain too weak to support a large hail
threat with any storms that can form.
Elsewhere, isolated storms may occur Thursday across coastal south
FL in the vicinity of a remnant front, and over parts of the eastern
Great Basin and central Rockies in association with the upper
trough. Other occasional lightning flashes appear possible across
portions of the northern Rockies and vicinity as a separate
shortwave trough overspreads this region. Weak instability across
all these areas should preclude any severe risk.

...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM PARTS OF THE
SOUTHERN PLAINS INTO THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY...
...SUMMARY...
Isolated to scattered severe thunderstorms should occur Friday into
Friday night from parts of the southern Plains into the lower
Mississippi Valley. Large to very large hail, damaging winds, and
isolated tornadoes all appear possible.
...Synopsis...
An upper trough should eject eastward from the Four Corners region
and Southwest across the southern/central Plains on Friday,
eventually reaching the lower/mid MS Valley by the end of the
period. An EML with associated steep mid-level lapse rates will
likely be present over much of OK/TX. A low-level jet should
continue to transport low-level moisture northward through the day
across the southern Plains, with a warm front potentially reaching
as far north as the OK/KS border vicinity. At the surface, a weak
low over the TX Panhandle Friday morning is forecast to develop
southeastward to the vicinity of southwestern OK/western north TX by
Friday evening while gradually deepening. A dryline should extend
southward from this low across portions of west/central TX. The
surface low should continue developing eastward to the lower MS
Valley late Friday into early Saturday morning, with a composite
dryline/cold front sweeping eastward across central/east TX. Rich
low-level moisture should advance northward ahead of the low/front
across much of LA and southern MS late in the period.
...Southern Plains...
Large-scale ascent associated with the shortwave trough should
overspread the warm sector across OK/TX by late Friday morning into
the early afternoon. As the cap erodes, robust convective
development appears likely along the eastward-mixing dryline. There
is still some uncertainty regarding the position of the dryline by
Friday afternoon across the southern Plains. Regardless, the
presence of rather steep mid-level lapse rates, increasing low-level
moisture, and diurnal heating should support moderate to locally
strong instability across the warm sector in OK/TX by Friday
afternoon. Deep-layer shear across this region appears strong enough
to support organized severe thunderstorms, including supercells.
Current expectations are for convection to initially develop along
or just east of the dryline, and subsequently move
east-northeastward. Large hail appears likely with this initial
activity, and isolated very large hail (2+ inch diameter) may also
occur. A veering/strengthening wind profile suggests some threat for
isolated tornadoes with any storms that can remain semi-discrete
through early Friday evening. Eventually, upscale growth may occur
along the cold front, with a damaging wind threat potentially
continuing into parts of east TX late Friday. Other isolated severe
storms may develop in the low-level warm advection regime in the
open warm sector along parts of the middle/upper TX Coast into east
TX through the day, posing a risk for all severe hazards.
...Sabine River Valley into the Lower Mississippi Valley...
A south-southwesterly low-level jet is forecast to strengthen
considerably from east TX into LA and southern MS Friday
evening/night. Surface-based convection appears increasingly
probable across this area as low-level moisture quickly increases.
The EML may advect eastward over this region, and NAM forecast
soundings show a favorable thermodynamic and kinematic environment
to support organized severe thunderstorms along/south of the warm
front. All hazards, including tornadoes, will be possible through
Friday night into early Saturday morning. The best severe threat may
be focused with the eastward-developing low-level jet, but
additional severe storms along the cold front may also occur. Even
with this seemingly favorable setup for severe thunderstorms, the
potential exists for afternoon storms with low-level warm advection
to slow the northward advance of the warm front and limit
instability. Once uncertainty regarding the evolution of these
afternoon storms is better resolved, greater severe probabilities
for tornadoes may need to be included for parts of the Sabine River
Valley vicinity.

...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
THE SOUTHEAST...
...SUMMARY...
Isolated to scattered severe thunderstorms may occur Saturday across
parts of the Southeast. All severe hazards appear possible,
including large hail, damaging winds, and a few tornadoes.
...Southeast...
An upper trough should continue moving eastward from the lower/mid
MS Valley across the Southeast and Mid-Atlantic on Saturday. A
strong south-southwesterly low-level jet is forecast to advance
quickly eastward from AL Saturday morning across GA and into SC by
the afternoon. At the surface, a weak low over the lower MS Valley
and Mid-South should develop northeastward towards the central
Appalachians during the day, with some uncertainty whether it
deepens substantially or not. Regardless, rich low-level moisture
should move northward across AL/GA/SC, supporting a threat for
surface-based thunderstorms.
Strong to severe convection may be ongoing Saturday morning from
portions of southern LA into MS and AL in association with the
low-level jet. As this activity spreads eastward through Saturday
afternoon, it may continue to pose at least an isolated severe
threat so long as it does not outpace the low-level moisture return.
A rather strong mid-level jet attendant to the upper trough will
support similarly strong deep-layer shear. Forecast soundings across
the warm sector in GA/SC from both the 00Z NAM and ECMWF show a veering/strengthening wind profile with height through mid levels,
potentially supporting supercells. Some eastward advection of an EML
from the Plains also appears possible across the warm sector, which
combined with the increasing low-level moisture and diurnal heating
should foster moderate to locally strong instability along/south of
the warm front.
All severe hazards, including the potential for a few tornadoes,
appear possible given the favorable thermodynamic and kinematic
environment forecast as thunderstorms move eastward across the
Southeast through the afternoon and early evening. The main
uncertainties are the possible limiting effect of morning convection
on the development of instability, and predominant storm mode.
Finally, there also appears to be a conditional threat for severe
thunderstorms behind the initial morning activity across southern LA
into MS/AL, as strong instability should develop ahead of an
eastward-moving cold front. However, low-level flow is forecast to
quickly veer to westerly behind the passage of the previously
mentioned low-level jet. This should limit convergence along the
front, and the most pronounced large-scale ascent associated with
the upper trough should be mostly east of this region by Saturday
afternoon. Even so, if convection can develop in this regime, then
both isolated large hail and damaging winds would be possible.

...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
Isolated thunderstorms are possible across the Florida Peninsula as
well as southern portions of the Pacific Northwest. No severe
thunderstorms are currently forecast.
...Synopsis...
A pair of low-amplitude shortwave troughs are expected to move off
the Mid-Atlantic and Southeast coasts, respectively, early Sunday.
In the wake of these shortwaves, predominantly zonal flow is
forecast to persist across the central and eastern CONUS throughout
much of day. Upper ridging will begin to build over the central
CONUS Sunday evening, as a deepening shortwave trough moves into the
western Great Basin and another moves into southern CA.
At the surface, a low attendant to the Mid-Atlantic shortwave trough
will likely be centered just off the Delmarva Peninsula early Sunday
morning. A cold front will extend southwestward from this low across
northern FL. Expectation is for this front to become increasingly
diffuse as it slowly moves southward across the FL Peninsula. Even
so, ample low-level moisture ahead of the front should result in
enough buoyancy for isolated thunderstorms. High pressure will
dominant sensible weather for remainder of the central and eastern
CONUS, limiting thunderstorm potential.
Only other location where thunderstorms appear possible is over central/southern OR and adjacent portions of northern CA. Here,
ascent and cool mid-level temperatures attendant to the shortwave
moving into the western Great Basin could result in isolated
lightning flashes.

...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
Isolated thunderstorms are possible across the Upper Midwest as well
as over portions of the northern and central Rockies on Monday. An
isolated storm or two is also possible across southern Florida.
...Synopsis...
Upper pattern is expected to undergo significant amplification on
Monday as western CONUS upper troughing deepens and downstream upper
ridging builds. Strong mid-level flow will exist throughout the
basal portion of the upper trough and extend from northern Mexico
across the central Plains into the Upper Midwest throughout much of
the period. Strengthening of this mid/upper flow is anticipated late
in the period over the southern High Plains.
This persistent southwesterly flow aloft will encourage deepening
surface pressure across the central Plains with a resulting increase
in southerly winds across much of the southern/central Plains and
Lower/Mid MS Valley. These surface wind will couple with a strong
low-level jet to foster robust moisture advection throughout the
period.
Some early day thunder is possible ahead of a deepening low-level
cyclone moving from central ND into western/northwestern MN.
Additional isolated thunderstorms are possible across the Upper
Midwest Monday evening into early Tuesday morning as a low-level jet dynamically strengthens and the cyclone matures. Additionally, a
cold front is forecast to gradually shift southeastward across
southern WI, western/central NE, and northeast IA during the
afternoon and evening. Warm mid-level temperatures are currently
expected to preclude development along this front, but forecast
soundings reveal that a slight increase in temperatures and/or
dewpoint could result in convective initiation. The environment
supports severe thunderstorms with any deep convection, and severe probabilities may be needed in later outlooks if initiation appears
more probable.
Lastly, isolated thunderstorms are possible over portions of the
northern and central Rockies as the upper trough and attendant cold
mid-level temperatures move through the region.

...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM PORTIONS OF
WEST TX AND THE TX PANHANDLE INTO WESTERN/CENTRAL OK AND
SOUTH-CENTRAL KS....
...SUMMARY...
Severe thunderstorms are possible Tuesday afternoon through Tuesday
night from portions of West Texas and the Texas Panhandle into
western/central Oklahoma and south-central Kansas.
...Synopsis and Discussion...
A deep upper trough is forecast to be in place over the western
CONUS early Tuesday morning. Strong mid/upper level flow will extend
throughout the basal portion of this trough, beginning the period
arced from off the central CA coast across northern Mexico and into
the southern High Plains. This upper trough is expected to make
modest eastward progress throughout the day while an embedded
shortwave trough ejects over northern/central NM into eastern
CO/western KS. This evolution will help spread the strong mid-level
flow over much of the southern and central Plains.
The surface pattern early Tuesday will likely feature a low near the
central NE/KS border, with a dryline extending south-southwestward
across central KS and northwest OK, and into the TX Panhandle. This
dryline will likely remain in place, sharpening throughout the day
as moderate low-level moisture advection continues to its
east/southeast. Low-level convergence into this boundary combined
with increasing large-scale ascent attendant to the approaching
shortwave is forecast to result in convective initiation amid a
diurnally destabilizing air mass. Some uncertainty exists regarding
storm coverage, largely as a result of unknown cap strength and
quality of the moisture return. Even so, environmental conditions
support a predominantly supercell mode with any storms that do
develop. All severe hazards are possible, including very large hail
and tornadoes.
Central High Plains surface cyclogenesis will likely cause a
westward retreat of the dryline during the evening. At the same
time, a strengthening low-level jet will increase warm-air advection
across the boundary. These factors are expected to result in
additional storm development from the Permian Basin into
south-central KS. Primary threat with these evening and overnight
storms is large hail.

...SUMMARY...
Isolated strong to severe thunderstorms are possible across the
middle and upper Ohio Valley on Thursday.
...Synopsis...
A northern-stream shortwave trough is forecast to extend from
northwest Ontario into central KS early Thursday morning. A
southern-stream upper low will likely be centered over the southern
High Plains at the same time. The northern-stream system is expected
to remain progressive throughout the day, moving through the Upper
MS Valley, Upper Great Lakes, and much of the OH Valley. In
contrast, the southern-stream system is only expected to make
minimal eastward progression, likely ending the period centered over
the Big Bend region of TX.
A surface low associated with the northern-stream shortwave is
expected to be centered over the Mid MS Valley early Thursday,
before then quickly progressing northeastward throughout the day. As
it moves northeastward, an attendant cold front will sweep
southeastward through the Mid MS and OH Valleys. Low to mid 60s
dewpoints will likely precede this front across the OH Valley,
contributing to modest instability despite poor mid-level lapse
rates and abundant cloud cover. Moderate to strong mid-level flow
will also be in place over the OH Valley, with the resulting
environmental conditions that could support a few strong to severe
storms. Damaging wind gusts and/or a brief tornado are the primary
threats.

Gulf Coast and into the Lower MS Valley. Widespread cloudiness and
numerous showers and thunderstorms will likely accompany this system
as it moves northeastward. Poor lapse rates and limited heating will
temper buoyancy, but vertical shear will strong enough to support a
few more organized updrafts, particularly as the low-level flow
increase late Saturday night/early Sunday morning. This late-period
increase in low-level flow could also act in tandem with the
negative tilt of the upper trough to promote upscale growth into
more of a forward-propagating convective line.
...Elsewhere...
A few lightning flashes may occur from the northern Rockies into the
central High Plains as a low-amplitude shortwave trough traverses
the region. Isolated thunderstorms are also possible from southern
MN into Lower MI, as isentropic ascent increases Saturday night
across a warm front extending from south-central NE into southern
WI.

...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS SUNDAY INTO SUNDAY
EVENING ACROSS PARTS OF SOUTHEAST TEXAS...SOUTHERN AND EASTERN
LOUISIANA...MUCH OF MISSISSIPPI AND ADJACENT PORTIONS OF WESTERN
ALABAMA AND SOUTHWESTERN TENNESSEE...
...SUMMARY...
Severe thunderstorms are possible Sunday into Sunday evening across
much of the lower Mississippi Valley.
...Synopsis...
A couple of significant short wave perturbations are forecast to
remain progressive within a southern branch of split mid-latitude
westerlies across the central and southern tier of the U.S. Models
indicate that the lead impulse will lose amplitude as it accelerates northeastward in negatively tilted fashion, into a more broadly
confluent regime across and northeast of the lower Mississippi
Valley. This will coincide with the increasing amplification of the
evolving upstream mid-level troughing, which is forecast to dig
southeastward through much of the Four Corners states by late Sunday
night.
Preceding the trailing perturbation, a broadening plume of warm and
capping elevated mixed-layer air is forecast to overspread much of
the southern Great Plains. Cold surface ridging appears likely to
nose southward to the lee of the northern Rockies in the wake of the
lead southern branch impulse, and mid-level troughing digging within
the northern branch. Within broad surface troughing shifting
southeastward ahead of the cold air, the more prominent surface low
is expected to migrate southeastward across the Texas Panhandle
vicinity into western portions of northern Texas by 12Z Monday. It
appears that this will be accompanied by an increasing influx of
low-level moisture beneath the warming mid-levels, across the
southern Great Plains into lower Mississippi Valley.
...Upper Texas coast into lower Mississippi Valley...
Models continue to indicate a window of opportunity for vigorous
convective development in advance of the eastward advecting plume of
elevated mixed-layer air. Ahead of the remnant mid-level cold core
of the lead perturbation, a cluster of thunderstorms may be
spreading across the upper Texas coast vicinity into Louisiana early
in the period. This may be in the process of weakening, with
activity tending to progress into an initially cooler/drier
low-level environment associated with surface ridging across and
east of the lower Mississippi Valley. However, most model output
does suggest that a modest (30-40 kt around 850 mb) southerly
low-level jet preceding this convection will supported elevated
moisture return across much of southern/eastern Louisiana and
Mississippi. And guidance suggests that daytime heating and
downward mixing of this moisture will contribute to a destabilizing
boundary layer through Sunday afternoon.
A zone of enhanced lower/mid tropospheric warm advection in the
immediate wake of the lead perturbation may provide one focus for
vigorous new thunderstorm development across southern Louisiana
during the day Sunday. This forcing could support an upscale
growing and organizing cluster of storms, aided by strong deep-layer
supported by an associated 50 kt southwesterly 500 mb jet. If this
does not negatively impact areas to the north, other thunderstorm
development may increase by Sunday afternoon along the axis of
destabilization through Mississippi. This may be initially
discrete, but convection may tend to grow upscale along outflow
spreading northeastward from the storm cluster to the south.
Aided by the development of moderate CAPE, strong shear and
lingering relatively cool mid-levels, supercell structures capable
of producing severe hail, damaging surface gusts and perhaps a few
tornadoes appear possible.

...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS LATE MONDAY TROUGH
MONDAY NIGHT ACROSS PARTS OF THE LOWER OHIO VALLEY INTO OZARK
PLATEAU AND ADJACENT PORTIONS OF THE SOUTHERN GREAT PLAINS...
...SUMMARY...
Severe thunderstorms are possible, particularly Monday evening into
the overnight hours, in a corridor from the the lower Ohio Valley
through the Ozark Plateau and adjacent portions of the southern
Great Plains. Some of this activity may pose a risk for large,
damaging hail and strong wind gusts.
...Synopsis...
Models suggest that the leading edge of large-scale mid-level
ridging, in a southern branch of split mid-latitude westerlies, may
begin to build inland across California and Baja during this period.
As this occurs, initially amplified downstream troughing is forecast
to shift east of the Four Corners states and northern Mexican
Plateau. Rather than as one strong, consolidated perturbation, it
appears that a series of smaller-scale impulses will emerge, but the
broader cyclonic regime may come in phase with troughing in the
northern branch, east of the Rockies into an increasingly confluent
regime across and east of the Mississippi Valley.
While there is model consensus, in a broad sense, concerning this
general pattern evolution, quite a bit of spread is evident among
the output concerning the synoptic and sub-synoptic scale
developments. However, it does appears that a frontal zone within
broad surface troughing will progress east-southeast of the Upper
Midwest/Great Lakes region and central Great Plains, preceded by an
influx of seasonably high boundary-layer moisture content, on
seasonably strong west-southwesterly low-level flow.
...Ohio Valley/Ozark Plateau and adjacent southern Great Plains...
Due to the large spread among the various deterministic model
output, placement of severe probabilities is largely based on the
overly smoothed out mean ensemble output of the various models.
However, there appears reasonable agreement that a general corridor
from eastern Oklahoma into the lower Ohio Valley may become a focus
for intense convective development by early Monday evening and
continue into the overnight hours.
Of particular concern, it appears that moderate to strong potential
instability will develop across this region during the day, as mid
60s to near 70F surface dew points advect northeastward ahead of the
front, beneath east-northeastward advecting elevated mixed-layer
air. This likely will occur in the presence of at least 30-50 kt west-southwesterly deep layer mean flow, with more than sufficient
deep-layer shear to support organized convective development. A few
supercells are possible, but large-scale forcing for ascent
associated within interacting perturbations within the flow probably
will support rapid upscale growing clusters.
By Monday evening, it is possible that the most significant impulse
emerging from the Southwest may be a prominent contributor to this
forcing, across the Ozark Plateau vicinity, before spreading toward
the lower Ohio Valley. Given the environment, large, damaging hail
appears possible, particularly in the early storm development, with
the risk for severe wind gusts becoming more prominent as activity
consolidates and organizes.

...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS TUESDAY ACROSS THE
LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY INTO THE TENNESSEE VALLEY...CUMBERLAND
PLATEAU AND PARTS OF THE SOUTHERN APPALACHIANS...
...SUMMARY...
Widespread strong to severe thunderstorm development is possible
Tuesday from the lower Mississippi and Ohio Valleys into the
Allegheny and Cumberland Plateau regions. This will include a risk
for large hail, damaging wind gusts and perhaps a couple of
tornadoes.
...Synopsis...
Models indicate that mid-level ridging will continue to build across
the Pacific Northwest and British Columbia through this period, on
the leading edge of an amplified belt of westerlies across the
northern mid-latitude Pacific. It appears that downstream flow will
remain at least somewhat less amplified. However, there may be some consolidation of mid-level troughing across and east of the
Mississippi Valley, associated with the east-northeast acceleration
of the remnants of larger-scale troughing emerging from the
Southwest, to the south of a broadening mid-level low evolving near/
south of Hudson Bay.
In response to these developments, a significant cold front is
forecast to advance east of the Mississippi Valley, toward the
Appalachians, and off the northwestern Gulf Coast. There remains
considerable spread within the various model output concerning
possible cyclogenesis along the front, from portions of the Mid
South through the lower Great Lakes region and Quebec. However,
seasonably high boundary-layer moisture content ahead of the front,
in the presence of strengthening southwesterly deep-layer mean wind
fields, may contribute to a risk for severe storms Tuesday into
Tuesday evening.
...Mississippi Valley into Appalachians...
Due to continuing large spread within the model output, the details
of the potential convective evolution for this period remain rather
uncertain. An organized convective system, or its remnants, may be
ongoing across parts of the lower Ohio Valley at the outset of the
period. It is possible that this could spread, with at least some
lingering risk for severe wind and hail, across the mid and upper
Ohio Valley early in the day. However, this may occur prior to
arrival of the more substantive low-level Gulf moisture return, and
it remains unclear what influence this will have on subsequent
destabilization ahead of the cold front, upstream, during the day.
There is considerable signal in the model output that large-scale
forcing for ascent may contribute to increasingly widespread
thunderstorm development across the lower Mississippi Valley early
in the day. And associated convective overturning may tend to
quickly stabilize initially steep lower/mid tropospheric lapse rates
associated with a plume of elevated mixed-layer air. However, aided
by boundary-layer dew points around 70 F, remnant instability
probably will remain sufficient to support a risk for organized
severe thunderstorm development. In the presence of seasonably
strong shear, convection capable of producing large and damaging
wind gusts appears possible, with at least some risk for a couple of
tornadoes.

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WEDNESDAY ACROSS
PARTS OF THE MIDDLE AND SOUTH ATLANTIC SEABOARD...
...SUMMARY...
Strong thunderstorms may impact parts of the middle and south
Atlantic Seaboard on Wednesday, with at least some storms posing a
risk for severe weather.
...Synopsis...
Mid-level ridging, on the leading edge of an amplified belt of
westerlies emanating from the northern mid-latitude Pacific, may
shift inland of the Pacific Northwest/British Columbia coast during
this period, as upstream mid-level troughing approaches coastal
areas. However, blocking may become a bit more prominent in the
downstream flow, and a broadening mid-level low centered near James
Bay may move little through this period. At least a couple of short
wave impulses digging to the lee of the ridging may contribute to
the maintenance of broad cyclonic flow to the south of the mid-level
low, across the U.S. Great Plains into Mississippi Valley. Models
indicate that this regime will expand a bit farther eastward
Wednesday, as remnant perturbations, emerging in prior days from the
Southwest, progress across the Atlantic Seaboard.
One of these perturbations probably will be accompanied by a belt of strengthening southwesterly lower/mid tropospheric flow across parts
of the mid and south Atlantic Seaboard, ahead of a composite cold
front initially approaching the Appalachians by 12Z Wednesday. In
response to cyclogenesis across the northern Mid Atlantic into New
England coastal vicinity, the surface cold front is generally
forecast to advance into and across the middle and south Atlantic
Seaboard late Wednesday into Wednesday night.
...Middle/South Atlantic Seaboard...
Seasonably moist boundary-layer air advecting northward ahead of the
cold front, coinciding with the strengthening southwesterly
pre-frontal wind fields, will contribute to at least a conditional
risk for severe thunderstorm development Wednesday. However,
convective overturning associated with widespread thunderstorm
development Tuesday into Tuesday night probably will tend to
stabilize upstream mid-level lapse rates. And the extent of
influence of any associated lingering cloud cover and precipitation
on destabilization aided by insolation east of the Appalachians on
Wednesday remains unclear. Given these issues, coupled with
substantive continuing spread among the models concerning the
synoptic and sub-synoptic developments, uncertainties still appear
too large to allow for more than 5 percent severe probabilities at
this time. However, this could change in subsequent outlooks for
this time period.

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS THURSDAY ACROSS
PARTS OF NORTHERN FLORIDA AND EASTERN PORTIONS OF THE FLORIDA
PENINSULA...
...SUMMARY...
Strong thunderstorms may impact parts of northern Florida and
Atlantic coastal portions of the Florida peninsula Thursday, a few
of which may pose at least some risk for large hail and damaging
wind gusts.
...Synopsis...
While upstream flow over the northern mid-latitude Pacific trends
more zonal during this period, models suggest that mid-level ridging
and troughing on the leading edge of this regime will remain
amplified. Eastward progress of the troughing inland of the Pacific
coast, and the ridging across the Rockies, will be slowed, as
blocking in the downstream flow (centered near the Labrador Sea)
persists.
A broad and deep mid-level closed low is forecast to remain centered
near James Bay, with troughing to its south amplifying east of the
lower Mississippi Valley in response to at least a couple of digging
short wave impulses. Models indicate that this will be accompanied
by substantive lower/mid tropospheric drying as far south and east
as the northern Gulf of Mexico, central portions of the Florida
peninsula and the Atlantic waters off the south Atlantic coast by
late Thursday night.
Destabilization, largely supported by seasonably strong mid-level
cooling across parts of the middle Mississippi into lower Ohio and
Tennessee Valleys, as well as across parts of the northern U.S.
intermountain region, aided by surface heating, may contribute to a
risk for thunderstorms during the day. Steepening lapse rates
associated with seasonably strong daytime heating may also
contribute to some risk for thunderstorms across the southern
Rockies, aided by orographic forcing. Seasonably high
boundary-layer moisture content will largely be confined to ahead of
a surface frontal zone advancing southward into the Florida
peninsula.
...Florida...
Models suggest that the front, or a pre-frontal convective outflow
boundary, initially extending across northern Florida early
Thursday, may become a focus for increasing forcing for ascent by
early afternoon. It appears that this will be supported by
increasingly cyclonic and difluent mid/upper flow, in the presence
of modestly steep low-level lapse rates, convective instability and
CAPE on the order of 1000+ J/kg. Beneath 30-40+ kt westerly flow in
the 700-500 mb layer, the environment might become at least
marginally conducive to organized storms capable of producing severe
hail and damaging wind gusts.
Wind fields will be weaker, but with pronounced veering with height
along the sea breeze near or inland of the Atlantic coast, where
low-level convergence will become focused Thursday afternoon. In
the presence of somewhat steeper low-level lapse rates and larger
CAPE, a supercell or two might not be out of the question.
Otherwise, stronger storm development may become capable of
producing strong downbursts, before diminishing/spreading offshore
Thursday evening.

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS LATE FRIDAY
AFTERNOON AND EVENING ACROSS PARTS OF SOUTHEASTERN
COLORADO...SOUTHWEST KANSAS AND THE TEXAS/OKLAHOMA PANHANDLE
VICINITY...
...SUMMARY...
A couple of strong thunderstorms may impact a small portion of the
central Great Plains late Friday afternoon and evening, posing some
risk for severe hail and strong surface gusts.
...Synopsis...
Models suggest that a blocking mid-level high, centered over the
Labrador Sea, will be maintained through this period. It appears
that this will continue to preclude the eastward progression of the
broad mid-level low to its west-southwest. However, there may be
some southward redevelopment of the circulation center to the west
and southwest of James Bay, in response to a perturbation pivoting
around its periphery. And large-scale mid-level troughing to its
south, initially encompassing much of the eastern U.S., may begin to de-amplify, as a consolidating short wave impulse accelerates east-northeastward across the southern Mid Atlantic coast into the
western Atlantic. It appears that this will occur as ridging within
the southern branch of splitting upstream flow overspreads the
central and southern Great Plains, in advance of elongating
large-scale mid-level troughing progressing across the Intermountain West/Rockies.
In lower-levels, substantive lower/mid tropospheric drying may
continue through much of the northern and eastern Gulf of Mexico,
across the remainder of the Florida peninsula, and well east of the
Atlantic Seaboard. Despite deepening surface troughing east of the
Colorado Front Range into south central portions of the Great
Plains, substantive low-level moistening from the western Gulf of
Mexico may only reach the lower Rio Grande Valley vicinity by late
Friday night. However, steep lapse rates, aided by insolation
beneath a plume of seasonably cold mid-level air across parts of the
East, and aided by seasonable surface heating beneath cooling aloft
across parts of the Intermountain West into Rockies, will contribute
to the risk for thunderstorms Friday into Friday night.
...Parts of central Great Plains...
In the presence of steepening lower/mid tropospheric lapse rates,
various model output suggests that boundary-layer moistening
associated with evaporation/transpiration may contribute to CAPE on
the order of 500-1000 J/kg by late Friday afternoon. It appears
that this will become focused near/east of a developing surface low
within lee surface troughing, where low-level convergence and
low/mid-level warm advection may support scattered thunderstorm
development. Deep-layer shear, largely due to pronounced veering of
winds with height in low to mid-levels, may become sufficient to
support a supercell structure or two. Severe hail and localized
strong surface gusts appear the primary potential hazards, and
activity could grow upscale into a small organized cluster before
weakening late Friday evening.

...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
CENTRAL/EAST TEXAS TO THE MID-SOUTH...
...SUMMARY...
Isolated to scattered severe storms appear possible on Sunday from
parts of central/east Texas to the Mid-South.
...Southern Plains to the Mid-South and Lower Ohio Valley...
A low-amplitude shortwave trough should advance from the
southern/central Plains to the lower/mid MS Valley and lower OH
Valley through Sunday evening. A weak surface low over southwestern
MO Sunday morning is forecast to develops towards the lower OH
Valley in the same time frame, while a trailing cold front moves
southeastward across parts of central/east TX, AR, and the
Mid-South. A strong southwesterly low-level jet is forecast to shift
quickly eastward from the Mid-South vicinity to the OH Valley by
Sunday afternoon.
Mainly elevated storms will probably be ongoing Sunday morning
across portions of southern MO/IL in the warm advection regime
associated with the low-level jet. In the wake of this early
activity, low-level moisture should increase ahead of the
southeastward-moving cold front. Mid to upper 60s surface dewpoints
appear likely to be in place across much of the warm sector by
Sunday afternoon. Diurnal heating of this moist low-level airmass
should foster moderate to potentially strong instability ahead of
the front, particularly across central/east TX into parts of
northern LA and much of AR. Even though large-scale ascent across
this region may remain fairly muted, most guidance indicates
convection will develop along the cold front. Forecast deep-layer
shear appears strong enough to support organized severe storms, with
both large hail and damaging straight-line winds possible. Upscale
growth into a line along the front may also occur. These storms
should eventually weaken with eastward extent across the lower MS
Valley as they outpace the better low-level moisture return and
encounter a less unstable airmass.
Farther north across parts of the mid MS Valley into the Lower OH
Valley, instability should be weaker owing to the influence of the
morning convection and slightly less low-level moisture return.
Still, the presence of low to perhaps mid 60s surface dewpoints
along and just east of the weak surface low suggest some potential
for surface-based convection across this region. Various forecast
soundings indicate strong shear in the low levels, but weak to
minimal instability. Although some severe threat may materialize
across parts of southern IL/IN into western/central KY Sunday afternoon/evening, this potential currently appears too limited to
include any more than a Marginal Risk for these areas.

...Southern Plains into the Lower Mississippi Valley and

Mainly elevated storms should be ongoing at the start of the period
Tuesday morning across parts of the southern High Plains as a weak, low-amplitude shortwave trough overspreads this region. Steep
mid-level lapse rates associated with an EML will probably still be
present across much of TX downstream of this early day convection.
Moderate elevated instability and sufficient deep-layer shear
appears to be present across this region, and isolated large hail
may occur with any supercells that can develop and persist. Storms
should eventually cross a surface front, with increasing potential
for becoming surface based through the afternoon across parts of
central into coastal/east TX. The stronger west-southwesterly winds
aloft will likely remain to the north of this region, but enough
mid-level flow should be present to support some updraft
organization and continued isolated severe potential.
Farther east, a surface front should move only slowly southward
through the day across LA into central and southern MS/AL/GA.
Although details regarding convective evolution remain unclear, it
does appear that diurnal heating of a moist low-level airmass to the
south of the front will support weak to moderate instability by
Tuesday afternoon. Mid-level flow should not be overly strong across
the warm sector, but it may still be enough to foster storm
organization. One or more clusters may form along the front and move south-southeastward through Tuesday evening, posing a threat for
isolated large hail and damaging winds.

Organized severe thunderstorms appear unlikely across the contiguous

A shortwave trough is forecast to move from the lower/mid MS Valley
across the Southeast on Thursday. Surface high pressure should
remain prominent over much of the central/eastern CONUS, with a
front extending over the Gulf of Mexico and the vicinity of northern
FL. Rich low-level moisture will likely remain confined to locations along/south of this boundary through the period. Convection should
develop across parts of the FL Peninsula through the day, but the
stronger mid-level flow associated with the shortwave trough will
probably be displaced generally north of the surface front. Although
a strong storm or two may occur across some portion of the FL
Peninsula Thursday afternoon given the moderate instability
forecast, deep-layer shear currently appears too marginal to include
low severe probabilities.
Other storms may occur across parts of the northern and central
Plains in association with a southwesterly low-level jet and related
warm advection. Moisture should remain quite limited across this
region owing to the frontal intrusion over the Gulf of Mexico, and
instability is likewise forecast to remain weak. Elsewhere, isolated
storms appear possible Thursday across parts of the southern High
Plains as modest low-level moisture returns, and across parts of the
northern Rockies and adjacent High Plains as a weak mid-level
perturbation traverses this area.

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
THE SOUTHERN/CENTRAL PLAINS...
...SUMMARY...
Isolated strong to severe storms appear possible across parts of the southern/central Plains on Friday.
...Southern/Central Plains...
West-northwesterly mid-level flow should continue Friday across
parts of the southern/central Plains, with modestly stronger winds
forecast in a fairly narrow belt from CO/WY into KS/NE and vicinity.
Partially modified Gulf moisture will continue returning northward
over the southern/central Plains through the day, but it should be
fairly shallow across the High Plains. A weak surface low should
develop by Friday afternoon over southeastern CO and vicinity, with
a dryline/lee trough extending southward from this low across the
southern High Plains. Very steep mid-level lapse rates forecast to
be present over the warm sector by peak afternoon heating, coupled
with the modestly increasing low-level moisture, should support the
development of moderate instability in a narrow corridor from
east-central CO into western KS and parts of the OK/TX Panhandles.
However, two limiting factors may tend to temper the magnitude and
coverage of severe storms. The first is the lack of obvious
large-scale forcing for ascent aloft, as mid-level heights should
remain neutral at best, with shortwave ridging otherwise persisting
over the southern Rockies/High Plains. The second is relatively
modest mid-level flow, which may limit deep-layer shear and storm
organization to some extent. Still, there is enough signal for
convective precipitation in guidance near and east of the surface
low and dryline Friday afternoon/evening to include 5% severe
probabilities. Any storms that form in this environment could pose
an isolated hail and strong/gusty wind threat given the steep
low/mid-level lapse rates expected. A southerly low-level jet is
forecast to strengthen Friday evening across this region, but
increasing convective inhibition with eastward extent across the southern/central Plains will probably limit the overall severe
threat farther east into KS/OK.

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
THE SOUTHERN/CENTRAL PLAINS...
...SUMMARY...
Isolated severe thunderstorms may develop Saturday across portions
of the southern/central Plains.
...Southern/Central Plains...
A closed upper low should move slowly southward across CA on
Saturday, with downstream shortwave ridging persisting over the southern/central Rockies and High Plains. Low-level moisture is
expected to gradually increase across the southern/central Plains
through the period, but it should still be fairly limited for this
time of year. At the surface, a weak low may deepen slightly through
the day across part of the southern/central High Plains, with a
dryline/lee trough extending southward from this low over the
southern High Plains. A warm front should be located across parts of
KS by Saturday evening.
Mid-level flow is forecast to remain rather weak across much of the
warm sector, with marginally stronger winds aloft in a narrow
corridor from eastern CO into KS and vicinity. Modest effective bulk
shear may temper the overall severe threat to some degree. But,
there will likely be steep mid-level lapse rates emanating from an
EML across the southern/central High Plains. These lapse rates
coupled with diurnal heating of the gradually moistening low-level
airmass should support the development of moderate to potentially
strong instability along/east of the surface low and dryline.
Another source of uncertainty is the lack of obvious large-scale
ascent to foster convective initiation, as weak upper ridging should
be located over the warm sector. Still, storms forming over the
higher terrain of the southern/central Rockies will probably spread
eastward through the day, and should eventually encounter a more
unstable airmass. Weak low-level upslope flow in central/eastern CO
may also serve as a forcing mechanism for convective initiation.
Other storms may form along the dryline/lee trough. Although
low/mid-level winds should remain generally weak through the day,
increasing high-level flow may support some venting at anvil level,
and semi-organized clusters capable of producing both isolated large
hail and damaging winds appear possible as they move generally
eastward through the early evening. A southerly low-level jet is
forecast to strengthen Saturday evening across southern KS into
northern OK, and this feature may support a continued isolated
severe threat with any storms that can form/persist in the warm
advection regime.

...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
THE SOUTHERN AND CENTRAL HIGH PLAINS...
...SUMMARY...
Thunderstorms associated with isolated large hail and wind damage
will be possible on Monday across parts of the southern and central
High Plains.
...Southern and Central High Plains...
A shortwave ridge will move eastward through the southern and
central Plains on Monday as an upper-level trough moves across
northern Mexico. At the surface, a low is forecast to deepen in west
Texas during the day with moisture advection continuing across much
of the southern Plains. A west Texas dryline is again forecast to
take shape by afternoon with convection initiating to the east of
the dryline. Scattered thunderstorms should develop and move
east-northeastward across the Texas Panhandle and northwest Texas
during the late afternoon, reaching western Oklahoma and possibly
central Oklahoma during the evening.
NAM forecast suggest that instability will be stronger in the
southern Plains on Monday than on previous days. This is because
surface dewpoints are forecast to increase into the mid to upper 60s
F to the east of the dryline. In addition, mid-level flow is
forecast to strengthen across much of west Texas as the shortwave
trough approaches. Forecast soundings suggest that 0-6 km shear
could reach 40 kt across the Texas Panhandle, where supercells with
large hail will be possible. The models also develop a 35 to 45 kt
low-level jet across northwest Texas early Monday evening. For this
reason, low-level shear should become strong enough for tornadoes.
The more dominant supercells could produce a tornado or two. Wind
damage will also likely accompany any storm clusters that can become
organized.
...Southwest, Central and North Texas...
Mid-level flow across the southern Plains will become
west-southwesterly on Monday as an upper-level trough moves across
northern Mexico. At the surface, dewpoints are forecast to be in the
upper 60s F to lower 70s F across much of southwest, central and
northern Texas. In response, moderate to strong instability is
forecast to develop by afternoon. Convective coverage should remain
isolated during the afternoon, mainly due to a lack of large-scale
ascent. If isolated thunderstorm development can take place, the
strong instability and moderate deep-layer shear would support an
localized severe threat. Strong wind gusts and hail would be the
primary threats.

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS MUCH OF
TEXAS INTO PARTS OF WESTERN AND SOUTHERN OKLAHOMA...
...SUMMARY...
Strong thunderstorms will be possible across much of Texas into
parts of Oklahoma on Tuesday. A few storms may become severe with a
threat of large hail and damaging wind gusts.
...Synopsis...
An upper low forecast to be centered somewhere near the southern
Rockies at the start of the period is forecast to weaken and eject northeastward through the day Tuesday, as an upper ridge continues
to build over the eastern CONUS. A weak surface low is forecast to
remain in place over some portion of west TX, with multiple
convectively modulated surface boundaries likely to be located
somewhere over the southern/central Plains.
...TX/OK...
With multiple rounds of convection expected prior to the D3/Tuesday
period across the southern/central Plains, confidence is quite low
regarding the details of any severe thunderstorm threat. A cluster
of convection (potentially posing some threat of hail/wind) may be
ongoing at the start of the period across some portion of southwest
into central/north TX. Difluent upper flow and continued low-level
moisture transport will likely sustain convection through most of
the day across TX into portions of OK.
The greatest relative severe risk will likely evolve along the
southern and western fringe of the more widespread convection, where
stronger destabilization will be possible in the vicinity of a weak
dryline and any outflow boundaries. Midlevel flow/deep-layer shear
to the east of the ejecting upper low/trough will likely be
sufficient to support some organized storm structures, with a risk
of hail, damaging wind, and possibly a tornado with the strongest
convection.
Given the uncertainty, a broad Marginal Risk has been included with
this outlook, with the expectation that some portion of the area
could eventually be upgraded (or possibly downgraded) as details
become clearer.

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
THE SOUTHERN AND CENTRAL PLAINS...
...SUMMARY...
Thunderstorms associated with hail and marginally severe wind gusts
will be possible on Wednesday across parts of the southern and
central Plains.
...Texas Coastal Plains...
An upper-level trough is forecast to move into the southern High
Plains on Wednesday. Mid-level flow ahead of the upper-level tough
will be south-southwesterly across much of the southern Plains. An
MCS may be ongoing at the start of the period across parts of
south-central and east-central Texas. To the southeast of the MCS, a
moist airmass should be in place with surface dewpoints near 70 F.
In response, moderate instability is expected to develop across much
of the Texas Coastal Plains by midday. Convective development will
be possible along an outflow boundary associated with the ongoing
MCS. The forecast position of this outflow boundary is highly
uncertain at this time. The NAM keeps the outflow boundary further
west, which would be a more favorable scenario for severe storm
development. In contrast, the GFS drives the outflow boundary
southeastward across much of the Texas Coastal Plains. This would be
a less favorable scenario for severe storms, because much of the
airmass would be worked over by afternoon. If the NAM scenario pans
out, low to mid-level flow is forecast to be strong enough for
organized severe storms. The primary threats would be for isolated
damaging wind gusts and hail. Due to the conditional nature of the
forecast, a slight risk will not be added at this time.
...Southern and Central High Plains...
An upper-level trough is forecast to move into the southern and
central High Plains on Wednesday. In response, a lee trough will
likely strengthen across the High Plains, resulting in moisture
advection during the day. Surface dewpoints from the Texas Panhandle
northward into western Kansas should rise into the lower to mid 60s
F, contributing to pockets of moderate instability. Thunderstorm
development will be possible during the afternoon along the western
edge of a north-to-south corridor of instability. These storms are
forecast to move across the Texas Panhandle and western Kansas
during the late afternoon and early evening. Although supercells can
not be ruled out, most of the convection should remain
multicellular. Hail and strong gusty winds are expected to be the
primary threats.

...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
THE CENTRAL AND NORTHERN HIGH PLAINS...
...SUMMARY...
Severe thunderstorms with large hail and wind damage will be
possible on Thursday across parts of the central High Plains.
Marginally severe thunderstorms may occur outside of the slight risk
area in parts of the High Plains.
...Central and Northern High Plains...
An upper-level low will be in place across the western states on
Thursday as divergent south-southwesterly mid-level flow takes shape
over the Rockies. At the surface, a lee trough will deepen across
eastern Colorado and eastern Wyoming with southeasterly winds
advecting low-level moisture northwestward toward the foothills of
the Front Range and Medicine Bows. As surface temperatures warm,
convection will likely initiate in the higher terrain, with
thunderstorms moving eastward across the central High Plains during
the afternoon. Moderate instability combined with 30 to 40 kt of
deep-layer shear will be favorable for severe storms. As cells move
away from the foothills, supercell development with large hail and
wind damage will be possible. An isolated tornado threat will also
be possible. The severe threat should persist into early evening
with a gradual transition to linear mode.
Further north into northeast Wyoming and southeast Montana, a
north-northwest to south-southeast corridor of moderate instability
is forecast to develop by Thursday afternoon. Convection will likely
initiate in the higher terrain and move northeastward into the
northern High Plains during the afternoon. Moderate deep-layer shear
should support severe storm development. Supercells with isolated
large hail will be possible. However, the degree of instability that
develops will be more uncertain than in areas further to the south.
A slight risk appears warranted, especially if moderate instability
does develop across much of the northern High Plains, as some of the
model solutions are suggesting.

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
THE CENTRAL TO NORTHERN HIGH PLAINS AND UPPER MIDWEST...
...SUMMARY...
Thunderstorms associated with hail and strong gusty winds will be
possible Friday in the central and northern High Plains and into the
Upper Midwest.
...Central and Northern High Plains...
An upper-level low will remain in place across the Intermountain
West on Friday with south to south-southwesterly mid-level flow in
the Rockies and High Plains. A moist airmass will be in place
throughout much of the Great Plains. The western edge of the moist
airmass will be located in the central High Plains, where surface
dewpoints should be in the lower to mid 50s F. In response to
surface heating, a pocket of moderate instability is forecast to
develop by afternoon from northeast Colorado into western Nebraska.
Convection that initiates in the higher terrain of northeast
Colorado and southeast Wyoming will move northeastward into this
pocket of instability during the afternoon. MLCAPE in the 1500 to
2000 J/kg range along with 30 to 40 kt of 0-6 km shear would support
an isolated severe threat. If these conditions materialize, then
supercells with large hail and wind damage would be possible during
the late afternoon. There is some uncertainty concerning how much
instability will increase and the models could be overdone. For this
reason, will keep the threat level at marginal for now.
...Upper Midwest...
An upper-level ridge will be in place across the Ohio and Tennessee
Valleys on Friday as mid-level flow remains south-southwesterly
across the Great Plains and Upper Midwest. A corridor of maximized
low-level moisture is forecast from far northeast Kansas into
central and northern Wisconsin. As surface temperatures warm during
the day, weak instability is expected to develop. Thunderstorm
development will be supported by a belt of enhanced low-level flow
located along the moist corridor. Scattered thunderstorms are
forecast to move northeastward along this corridor during the late
afternoon and early evening. The instability combined with around 30
kt of deep-layer shear would be sufficient for a marginal wind
damage and hail threat.

...SUMMARY...
Thunderstorms associated with marginally severe wind gusts and hail
will be possible in the southern High Plains on Saturday.
...Southern High Plains...
An upper-level low will remain over the Intermountain west on
Saturday with mid-level flow from the south to south-southwest
across the Rockies and High Plains. Flow at the surface is forecast
to be from the southeast across much of the southern Plains, which
will advect low-level moisture westward into west Texas and eastern
New Mexico. Surface dewpoints could reach the upper 50s to near 60 F
across parts of west Texas and eastern New Mexico. In response, a
pocket of moderate instability may develop by Saturday afternoon.
Thunderstorm development appears likely in the higher terrain of
eastern New Mexico, to the west of this pocket of instability. These
storms should move northeastward into the southern High Plains
during the afternoon. NAM forecast soundings for 00Z/Sunday in
eastern New Mexico show MLCAPE near 1200 J/Kg with 0-6 km shear at
40 kt. This combined with steepening low-level lapse rates during
the mid to late afternoon could support a marginal wind damage
threat. Hail will also be likely in the stronger cores. At this
time, the amount of instability that is forecast is too weak to
warrant issuing a slight risk.

...SUMMARY...
Widely scattered severe thunderstorms are possible on Monday for
parts of the central and southern Great Plains into the Upper
Midwest. Large hail and severe gusts are the primary risks with
this activity.
...Upper Midwest into the central/southern High Plains...
A mid-level low initially over the northern MT will move into
southern Canada while a belt of strong mid-level flow moves from the
Dakotas into northern MN. A cold front will weaken during the day
as it pushes east across parts of the Upper Midwest. Weak
instability developing during the day may invigorate convection with
a few strong to severe storms possible across MN. Farther south,
greater instability will result in more intense storms potentially
developing over the central Great Plains during the
afternoon/evening. The southern fringe of stronger flow is forecast
to glance the northern half of KS into NE, where more organized
storm structures are possible. Farther south, steep low-level lapse
rates will favor gusty winds with diurnally driven storms from parts
of eastern NM into west TX. A portion of this generalized area may
need higher probabilities introduced in later outlooks.
...Mid-Atlantic states...
A belt of 25-30 kt northwesterly 500-mb flow is forecast across the
central Appalachians into the Mid-Atlantic states. A frontal zone
will likely become draped across the region serving as a focus for
widely scattered showers and thunderstorms on Monday. Despite
modest mid-level lapse rates denoted in forecast soundings, weak
instability will likely develop by mid afternoon. A few strong
gusts cannot be ruled out and this area will be monitored for
potential low-severe probabilities in a later outlook update.

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE WESTERN
GREAT LAKES INTO THE CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN GREAT PLAINS...
...SUMMARY...
Isolated severe thunderstorms are possible Tuesday from the western
Great Lakes southwestward into the central Great Plains and into
west Texas. Large hail and severe gusts are the primary threats.
...Synopsis...
A mid-level trough initially over the Upper Midwest will move into
the northern Great Lakes while an upstream disturbances moves across
the interior Pacific Northwest/northern Rockies. A mid-level ridge
will influence weather conditions across the Southeast into the
upper OH Valley. In the low levels, a front will push east across
parts of the Upper Midwest with the trailing portion of the frontal
zone draped over the central Great Plains. A dryline will extend
north to south across the southern High Plains.
...Western Great Lakes into the central/southern Great Plains...
Models generally show an eastward shift of the risk for
thunderstorms across parts of the Midwest compared to Monday via the
associated movement of a frontal zone. Scattered
showers/thunderstorms will focus near the boundary by late afternoon
coincident with diurnal destabilization. Storm organization into
several clusters/bands is expected with time and the stronger storms
could yield a risk for damaging gusts and perhaps hail.
Farther southwest, storm coverage will likely remain isolated to
widely scattered despite the presence of a seasonably moist airmass
across the central/southern Great Plains, due in part to appreciable
mid- to upper forcing being displaced from the region. Nonetheless,
strong heating near the dryline and the development of steep lapse
rates will favor a moderate to very unstable airmass developing by
late afternoon. Although mid- to high-level flow will remain
modest, veering flow will yield effective shear supporting
multicells and slow-moving supercells given the magnitude of
instability. Large hail and severe gusts will be the primary
concerns with this activity before it diminishes during the evening.

HILLS VICINITY SOUTHEASTWARD INTO PARTS OF THE LOWER MISSOURI
VALLEY...
...SUMMARY...
Scattered severe thunderstorms are possible on Wednesday afternoon
over the north-central High Plains. The severe-weather risk will
shift eastward across parts of the central Great Plains Wednesday
night.
...Eastern Wyoming into the lower Missouri Valley...
A mid-level shortwave trough initially over ID Wednesday morning,
will move east into the Dakotas. A lower-latitude belt of moderate
mid-level flow is forecast to move from NM/CO into the TX Panhandle
by early evening. A surface low is forecast to develop over the
central High Plains and develop eastward into the lower MO Valley
during the period.
A residual frontal zone over the central Great Plains is forecast to
advance northward into NE during the day. Increasing
south-southeasterly low-level flow will advect moisture into western
NE/eastern WY by mid afternoon. Increasing large-scale ascent
coupled with the diurnal weakening of a capping inversion, will
support widely scattered thunderstorms by late afternoon. Large to
very large hail is possible in addition to severe gusts with
supercellular activity. By early evening, additional storms will
probably develop farther east within the moisture plume over
west-central NE as a LLJ strengthens and a potential tornado risk
before upscale growth occurs. An MCS is forecast to develop across
NE and possibly northern KS and move east. Very steep mid-level
lapse rates (8-9 deg C/km in the 700-500 mb layer) and richer
moisture may aid in the development of a mature/severe MCS. Severe
gusts, potentially significant, could accompany the more pronounced
bowing portions of the squall line as it moves east into the lower
MO Valley late.
...Southwest Kansas into northwest TX...
A lee trough/dryline is forecast to sharpen during the day as 60s F
dewpoints are forecast in the High Plains. Model guidance suggests
at least isolated thunderstorms are possible from parts of western
KS southward through the TX Panhandle. Strong heating and local
erosion of the cap by late afternoon may result in the development
of a few severe thunderstorms. Large hail and severe gusts are the
primary threats with this activity. Increasing convective
inhibition during the evening will eventually lead to a diminished
severe risk by late evening.
...Lower Great Lakes into the Northeast...
A mid-level trough over the northern Great Lakes Wednesday morning
will shift eastward through the lower Great Lakes by late evening.
An attendant cool front will push southeastward across the Great
Lakes and into parts of the Northeast by early Thursday morning.
The northeast extent of a plume of low to mid 60s dewpoints is
forecast over the southern Great Lakes. Scattered thunderstorms are
forecast to develop during the day amidst a moderately unstable
airmass. Storm organization into line segments is probable near the
front while more isolated activity is expected farther east over the
interior Northeast southward into the Mid-Atlantic states. Isolated
damaging gusts and perhaps some hail are possible with the stronger
storms beginning during the midday and continuing into the early
evening before storms diminish.

...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR MUCH OF OKLAHOMA...SOUTHEAST KANSAS...AND A LARGE PART OF MISSOURI...
...SUMMARY...
Scattered severe thunderstorms are likely on Thursday and Thursday
evening from parts of the southern Great Plains into the Ozarks and
middle Mississippi Valley. Very large hail, significant severe
gusts, and several tornadoes are possible.
...Lower MO Valley eastward into the OH Valley...
Uncertainty remains regarding details on the evolution of an early
day MCS over the lower MO Valley per recent model guidance.
However, models indicate an MCV over the lower MO Valley may aid in
storms persisting during the morning or possibly developing on the
outflow and moving east across central MO into the mid MS Valley
during the day. Strong potential instability and mid-level flow
will favor organized storms. Severe gusts and a few tornadoes may
be the primary threats with this activity as it eventually moves
into lower OH Valley late.
...KS/OK/eastern TX Panhandle into the Ozarks...
To the south of morning showers/storms over the lower MO Valley, a
very moist boundary layer (15-17 g/kg lowest 100 mb mean mixing
ratios) is forecast to become very to extremely unstable (2500-4500
J/kg MLCAPE) by mid afternoon south of an outflow boundary and cool
front. Strong heating near the front and outflow boundary will
likely be preferable locations for thunderstorm development by
mid-late afternoon. Forecast soundings show ample deep-layer shear
favoring organized storms (e.g., supercells) with very large CAPE in
the -10 to -30 deg C layer. Large to giant hail is possible with
the early discrete supercell activity. Although low-level shear is
modest, a tornado risk may focus near a potential outflow boundary
or perhaps where SRH may be maximized (per stronger 850-700 mb flow)
during the early evening over northeast OK into southeast KS and
southwest MO. While it is too early in the outlook cycle to have
much confidence in the potential for a significant tornado, some
environmental ingredients may overlap.
By early evening, additional explosive thunderstorm development is
probable near the front as storms congeal and grow upscale within
the moist/instability reservoir centered over OK. A severe-wind
producing MCS is possible during the evening and perhaps persisting
into the overnight across OK into the western Ozark Plateau.
...TX dryline...
Strong heating over west and southwest TX will contribute to very
steep low-level lapse rates beneath an elevated mixed layer. Models
show a mid-level disturbance initially over AZ will quickly move
east into central/eastern NM by late afternoon with an associated
speed max. Although most of this region will remain capped,
weakening convective inhibition and appreciable boundary-layer
moisture will result in a very unstable airmass (2500-3500 J/kg
MLCAPE) with 50-kt west-southwesterly 250 mb flow. A couple of
widely spaced supercells posing a risk for large to very large hail
and severe gusts are possible during the late afternoon through
early evening.

Isolated strong to severe thunderstorms are possible Friday from the
southern High Plains east-northeast into parts of the Ohio Valley
and Virginia.
...Synopsis...
A mid-level trough initially over the mid MS Valley will move into
the OH Valley. A composite cold front/outflow will push
southeast/east across the OH Valley into the Mid-Atlantic states and
western Carolinas while the western portion of the boundary will be
draped west to east across TX. Farther northwest, a mid-level
shortwave trough will move east from the northern Rockies eastward
into the northern High Plains.
...KY/TN/northern MS to the VA/NC vicinity...
Scattered showers and thunderstorms will likely be ongoing Friday
morning from the southern Great Lakes southwestward to the Arklatex.
A surface low over IN early Friday morning will move east to the
WV/VA border by early evening. A belt of moderately strong
west-southwesterly 500 mb flow (30-40 kt) atop a moist/destabilizing
boundary layer, will probably aid in the development of isolated
strong to severe thunderstorms. Given the early day convection, it
is uncertain where a focus for severe activity will occur within
this general region. Nonetheless, it seems like at least moderate destabilization may occur over KY. Damaging gusts and perhaps large
hail are the primary severe risks. The severe risk will likely
diminish during the evening as it pushes east into the southern
Appalachians and towards the VA Tidewater late.
...TX into eastern NM...
A relatively unfocused area for potential severe seems likely across
parts of TX where convective outflow/composite front will serve as
foci for storm development. A weak mid-level perturbation moving
east from NM into TX may provide the necessary large-scale forcing
for strong to severe storms south of the boundary. However, models
vary considerably on the location of the weak disturbance. Upslope
flow is forecast over eastern NM where terrain-focused thunderstorm
development is expected during the afternoon. Therefore, isolated thunderstorms could yield a marginal hail/wind threat before this
wanes during the evening.
...Northeast WY and southeast MT...
A surface low is forecast to develop over northeast WY in response
to the approaching mid-level disturbance. A narrow tongue of 40s
deg F dewpoints beneath steep mid-level lapse rates (around 8.5 deg
C/km) will contribute to weak instability (250-750 J/kg MLCAPE). A
couple of the stronger storms could yield an isolated threat for
hail/wind.

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PARTS OF THE
SOUTHERN AND CENTRAL HIGH PLAINS AND ADJACENT PORTIONS OF COASTAL
NORTH CAROLINA AND VIRGINIA...
...SUMMARY...
Isolated severe thunderstorms capable of large hail and severe gusts
are possible Saturday from eastern Colorado south into eastern New
Mexico and southwest Texas. Isolated damaging gusts are possible
near coastal Virginia and North Carolina.
...Synopsis...
A mid-level trough will move from MT/WY eastward into the Upper
Midwest while a slow-moving mid-level trough moves from the OH
Valley into the central Appalachians. A surface low and associated
cold front will push offshore the VA/Carolinas.
...Central and southern High Plains...
Moist east-southeasterly upslope flow will maintain a fetch of
appreciable moisture into southwest TX and southeast NM. A
reservoir of steep mid-level lapse rates coupled with strong heating
near the higher terrain, will favor diurnal storm development.
Farther north over CO, models likewise indicate steep lapse rate
profiles with ample high-level flow. Strong to severe multicells
capable of an isolated hail/severe gust threat will peak during the
late afternoon/early evening before diminishing thereafter.
...Southeast VA/northeast NC...
The aforementioned cold front will likely serve as the primary
impetus focusing shower/thunderstorm development on Saturday.
Moderate destabilization is forecast ahead of the front with largely unidirectional southwesterly flow increasing in speed with height.
A few strong to severe storms may be capable of an isolated wind damage/marginal hail threat.

...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR SOUTHEAST NEW
MEXICO AND SOUTHWEST TEXAS...
...SUMMARY...
Widely scattered severe thunderstorms are possible across the
Permian Basin and southwest Texas. Large to very large hail and
severe gusts are the primary hazards.
...Southern High Plains...
A mid- to upper-level trough near southern CA Saturday morning will
move east into southern AZ/northwestern Mexico by late Saturday
night. A belt of moderately strong west-southwesterly 500 mb flow
(35-40 kt) will nose eastward across northern Mexico into southern
NM and southwest TX during the evening/overnight. Moist
southeasterly upslope flow will maintain a seasonably moist airmass
in the Permian Basin featuring 60s F dewpoints. Strong heating will
result in steep 0-2 km lapse rates and a moderate to very unstable
airmass by late afternoon from southwest TX into southeast NM
(2500-3000 J/kg MLCAPE). Veering flow in the low to mid levels
beneath 70 kt 250 mb flow, will result in a wind profile supporting
supercells. By early evening, low-level shear is forecast to
strengthen coincident with a strengthening LLJ over west TX and
perhaps a narrow window of opportunity for a tornado risk with the
stronger supercells. Upscale growth into a cluster or two will
probably occur and this activity may persist into the late evening
with severe gusts becoming the primary hazard.
Elsewhere, isolated thunderstorms are possible across the FL
Peninsula, eastern NC, and over the central High Plains.

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PARTS OF THE
SOUTHERN HIGH PLAINS AND PORTIONS OF THE OHIO VALLEY...
...SUMMARY...
Isolated severe thunderstorms capable of large hail and severe gusts
are possible in eastern New Mexico and southwest Texas on Wednesday.
Isolated damaging gusts are possible with strong to severe
thunderstorms from Tennessee northeastward into Ohio.
...Synopsis...
A mid-level ridge over the West and a slow-moving mid-level trough
over the MS Valley will be the primary synoptic features on
Wednesday. A residual frontal zone will be draped southwestward
into TX from a weak area of low pressure over southern IL Wednesday
afternoon.
...Southern High Plains...
Easterly component to low-level flow will maintain appreciable
moisture over the Permian Basin and eastern NM beneath relaxed
northwesterly mid-level flow compared to previous days. Strong
heating will lead to moderate instability and widely scattered to
scattered thunderstorms are forecast to develop by late afternoon.
Convective initiation will favor higher terrain with storms
intensifying during the late afternoon into the early evening. The steep-lapse-rate environment will potentially favor severe gusts
with the stronger downdrafts and hail with the stronger updrafts.
This activity will likely diminish by mid evening.
...TN northeast into OH...
Scattered showers and thunderstorms may be ongoing from parts of the
OH Valley southwestward into the lower MS Valley near the frontal
zone. A plume of moisture with surface dewpoints ranging from the
lower 70s over the lower MS Valley to the lower 60s in the upper OH
Valley, will combine with diurnal heating to yield weak to moderate
instability across this corridor. A belt of moderately strong
southwesterly flow from 850-500 mb (30-40 kt) may aid in organizing
a few bands of storms capable of damaging gusts, primarily during
the afternoon but possibly lingering into the evening hours.

...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER THE MIDDLE
ATLANTIC REGION...
...SUMMARY...
Strong to severe storms are possible over a portion of the Middle
Atlantic Thursday with locally strong to damaging gusts the primary
threat.
...Middle Atlantic region...
A belt of 40-50 kt mid-level winds will spread above the moistening
pre-frontal warm sector Thursday in association with an approaching positive-tilt upper trough. While areas of clouds and a few showers
may develop early in the period along the evolving warm conveyor
belt, pockets of diabatic heating will contribute to 1000-1500 J/kg
MLCAPE. Storms developing along and ahead of an approaching cold
front will likely undergo a gradual intensification during the day
with 35 to 40 kt effective bulk shear supporting a few organized
structures. Damaging wind appears to be the primary threat, but
low-level hodographs might become sufficient for a couple of
tornadoes. Activity should weaken toward mid evening.
...Pacific Northwest and northern Rockies area...
A cold front associated with a progressive low-amplitude impulse
moving through southern British Columbia will become situated from
the northern Rockies into eastern/central Oregon by late afternoon.
The atmosphere in this region will likely destabilize with steep
mid-level lapse rates and diabatic heating contributing to 500-1000
J/kg MLCAPE. Deeper forcing for ascent will remain relatively weak
potentially limiting storm coverage. However, a few storms might
develop in association with the front and over the higher terrain.
Inverted-V low-level thermodynamic profiles will support the
potential for isolated downburst winds from late afternoon into mid
evening.

OF MONTANA AND NORTHWEST NORTH DAKOTA...
...SUMMARY...
A few strong to severe storms are possible, mainly across a portion
of Montana Friday. Isolated downburst winds are the primary threat.
...Montana...
A shortwave trough moving east through southwest Canada on Friday
will suppress the northern periphery of an upper ridge centered over
the Great Basin. This impulse will be accompanied by a cold front
that will move southeast through MT during the day. Dewpoints
generally in the 40s F will characterize the warm sector, and strong
diabatic heating will contribute to deeply mixed boundary layers and
500-1000 J/kg MLCAPE during the afternoon. Modest height falls,
orographic and weak frontal forcing should contribute to the
development of at least isolated high-based thunderstorms by late
afternoon. This activity will spread east through MT before
weakening during the evening. Given expected well-mixed boundary
layers and increasing winds aloft accompanying the upper trough,
some of the thunderstorms will be capable of producing isolated
downburst winds. Concerns regarding storm coverage preclude more
than a MRGL risk category at this time, but an upgrade to SLGT risk
might be warranted in later updates.

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER A PORTION
OF THE NORTHERN PLAINS AND NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND...
...SUMMARY...
A few strong to severe storms will be possible across a portion of
the northern Plains and northern New England Saturday.
...Northern Plains...
Shortwave ridging will prevail much of the day across the northern
High Plains. However, an upstream shortwave trough will approach
this region from the west during the overnight accompanied by a cold
front. Low-level moisture will remain modest in the pre-frontal warm
sector with surface dewpoints generally in the 50s F. However,
strong diabatic heating will contribute to deeply mixed boundary
layers with steep lapse rates supporting 1000-1500 J/kg MLCAPE.
Deeper forcing for ascent will be limited during the day, given
proximity to upper ridge. However, a pre-frontal trough and the
Black Hills of SD could serve as foci for a few storms to develop as
the boundary layer destabilizes. A better chance for storms may
occur overnight in post-frontal region as forcing for ascent
increases downstream from an approaching shortwave trough. While
some threat for damaging wind and hail might accompany this
activity, the post-frontal nature of the storms along with limited
low-level moisture lower confidence in a more robust threat.
...Northern New England...
A shortwave trough will move from southeast Canada into northern New
England during the evening and overnight accompanied by a belt of
strengthening deep-layer winds. The deeper forcing accompanying the
shortwave trough and presence of modest instability (800-1200 J/kg
MUCAPE) may support the development of a few thunderstorms,
spreading southeast within the evolving northwest flow regime during
the evening and overnight. These storms will likely be elevated
above a stable surface layer, but will be embedded within 35-45 kt
flow in the 850-500 mb layer. Some of this activity might become
capable of producing a few strong wind gusts.

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER A PORTION
OF THE UPPER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY AS WELL AS THE SOUTHERN HIGH
PLAINS...
...SUMMARY...
A few strong to severe storms with gusty winds and hail will be
possible across a portion of the upper Mississippi Valley as well as
the southern High Plains on Sunday.
...Upper Mississippi Valley region...
A low-amplitude shortwave trough embedded within belt of stronger
westerlies will move along the international border and through
southern Manitoba and western Ontario during the day. A cold front
will accompany this feature and move through the northern Plains and
into upper MS Valley during the day. By late afternoon the front
should extend from northwest MN southwest through eastern SD into
western NE. A corridor of moderate instability is expected in the
pre-frontal warm sector with 1500-2000 J/kg MLCAPE. The deeper
forcing for ascent attending the shortwave trough will remain north
of the international border, but frontal convergence might be
sufficient to initiate a few storms by late afternoon, especially
across MN. Storms that develop might become capable of producing a
few locally strong wind gusts and hail through early evening before
weakening as the surface layer begins to stabilize.
...Southern High Plains...
Closed upper low currently situated over TX is forecast to drift
slowly northward into OK Sunday. Modest northwest winds aloft will
prevail upstream of this feature over the southern High Plains. A
corridor of moderate instability will likely evolve where plume of
steeper lapse rates overlaps the western fringe of richer low-level
moisture across west TX. Potential will exist for a few storms to
develop over the higher terrain and within the more deeply mixed
regime across eastern NM and spread southeast. Southeasterly
low-level winds beneath modest northwest winds aloft will contribute
to 30-35 kt effective bulk shear. This environment will support some
threat for large hail and locally strong wind gusts as storms spread
southeast during the late afternoon through mid evening.

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PORTIONS
OF CENTRAL MONTANA...
...SUMMARY...
Isolated severe thunderstorms are possible across portions of
central Montana on Wednesday. Large hail and damaging winds are the
primary threats.
...Central MT...
The mid/upper level trough over the West is forecast to begin
shifting eastward on Wednesday. Midlevel flow is forecast to
increase throughout the day across central/western MT, while a
surface cyclone persists across southern MT. Modest low-level
moisture will be maintained within the easterly flow north of the
cyclone. Steep midlevel lapse rates will support weak-to-moderate
buoyancy, as midlevel flow/effective shear strengthens with time.
Widely scattered thunderstorms are expected during the afternoon and
evening, with isolated supercells and/or small bowing segments
possible, capable of producing hail and locally severe wind gusts.
...Central/eastern Dakotas into northwest MN...
The potential for overnight/morning convection creates some
uncertainty regarding convective potential across the Dakotas into
northwest MN later in the day on Wednesday. However, there is some
potential for convection to redevelop during the afternoon and
evening near a weakening surface boundary, within a moderately
unstable environment. Midlevel flow and effective shear may weaken
with time, but could still be sufficient to support some stronger
storms capable of hail and strong wind gusts. Probabilities may need
to be added for this scenario once details regarding antecedent
convection become clearer.

THE NORTHERN HIGH PLAINS...
...SUMMARY...
Scattered severe storms are likely Thursday afternoon and evening
over the northern High Plains. Damaging wind and hail are most
likely, but a couple tornadoes will be possible.
...Synopsis...
A shortwave trough will move from the Great Basin Thursday morning
across the northern High Plains by evening, ejecting in
negative-tilt fashion with strong cooling aloft late. Southerly
winds aloft will increase with time, while a southeasterly low-level
jet develops, enhancing shear. Low pressure is forecast to deepen
over eastern MT during the afternoon, with a cold front surging into
central ND/SD/NE by 12Z Friday.
A warm front situated from northeast MT into ND is forecast to lift
north during the day, with 60s F dewpoints contributing to strong
instability late in the day. The cold front will provide a focus for
scattered to numerous storms, some of which are likely to be severe.
...Northern High Plains...
Strong heating will result in a plume of steep/dry-adiabatic
low-level lapse rates across WY and much of southern MT Thursday
afternoon, as southeasterly surface winds maintain 60s F dewpoints.
The result will be MUCAPE exceeding 2000 J/kg east of the surface
low and developing cold front, along with around 40 kt effective
shear. Large-scale ascent will increase markedly after 21Z, with
storms initiating over eastern MT. Supercells will be possible
initially, producing large/damaging hail. A tornado or two will be
possible as well with 200-300 m2/s2 effective SRH.
With time, activity is likely to grow upscale, with increasing
damaging-wind potential into the central Dakotas. Damaging winds may
extend farther south into NE, but capping will become a concern
there.

...SUMMARY...
Isolated severe wind gusts may occur Friday from northeast Kansas
into western Iowa.
...Synopsis and Discussion...
A compact, negative-tilt shortwave trough will move quickly out of
the Dakotas and into Canada by 18Z with height rises across the
Plains for the remainder of the period. At the surface, a cold
front/outflow composite boundary is expected to be over the eastern
Dakotas Friday morning, trailing southwest into KS and the TX
Panhandle.
A very moist and unstable air mass will remain ahead of this front
from NE/IA into the southern Plains, but capping will increase
roughly south of I-70. Storms will possibly be ongoing over eastern
NE Friday morning, and several models indicate activity persisting
during the day and turning southeastward. While uncertainty
inherently exists due to outflow-boundary timing, strong instability
with 70s F dewpoints is likely, which will support strong wind
gusts.
Elsewhere, morning activity farther north into ND and MN is expected
to weaken with time behind the rapidly departing upper trough.

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER NORTHEAST
NEW MEXICO AND SOUTHEAST COLORADO...
...SUMMARY...
Isolated storms may produce hail over northeast New Mexico and
southeast Colorado Saturday afternoon and evening.
...Synopsis...
On Saturday, an upper high will be centered over NM, with height
rises over the Rockies near the upper ridge. Strong northwest flow
aloft will develop from ND and MN toward the upper Great Lakes
overnight as a low-amplitude shortwave trough rounds the upper
ridge. Meanwhile, low heights will persist over the Mid Atlantic and
Southeast, with weak midlevel northerlies across the OH and TN
Valleys southward to the northern Gulf of Mexico.
At the surface, a moist and unstable air mass will remain over the
central and southern Plains, and the middle and lower MS Valley.
Weak low pressure is forecast over GA and SC where heights will be
lower, but midlevel temperatures will not be particularly cool, and
shear will be weak. Therefore, diurnal storm development near the
surface trough is not expected to be severe.
To the west, MUCAPE will likely exceed 4000 J/kg over parts of OK
and north TX by late afternoon, but little to no lift is expected
due to upper ridging. However, steep lapse rates aloft and moisture
near 700 mb may support areas of elevated convection from western OK
into the TX Panhandle.
As low-level moisture backs westward into NM, there will be a
greater chance of a few strong to severe storms.
...Southeast CO into northeast NM...
High pressure over the central Plains will weaken during the day as
heating occurs, with southeast surface winds developing over the
central and southern High Plains. This will allow 55-60 F dewpoints
to spread westward, resulting in at least 1500 J/kg MUCAPE over
southeast CO and northeast NM. CIN will be completely removed over
the higher terrain, with isolated storms possible by late afternoon.
Effective shear will only average near 30 kt, but steep lapse rates
will favor robust updrafts with marginal hail risk. Capping, as well
as slow storm motion off the high terrain, will limit eastward
extent of the severe risk, but a storm or two could approach western
parts of the OK and TX Panhandles late.

...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
THE NORTHEAST AND MID-ATLANTIC...
...SUMMARY...
Isolated to scattered severe thunderstorms appear possible Monday
from parts of the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic southwestward into the
Ohio and Tennessee Valleys, lower Mississippi Valley, and southern
Plains.
...Discussion...
A large-scale upper trough should continue to amplify across much of
the central/eastern CONUS on Monday. Enhanced west-southwesterly
mid-level winds should accompany this upper trough, and they are
forecast to gradually overspread the surface warm sector extending
from the Northeast to the mid MS Valley and TN Valley vicinity by
Monday evening. At the surface, the primary low associated with the
upper trough is forecast to develop northeastward from the Great
Lakes region into Ontario/Quebec through the day. A trailing cold
front attendant to this low should move east-southeastward across
much of the Northeast into the Mid-Atlantic, OH/TN Valleys, lower MS
Valley, and southern Plains through Monday night.
Current expectations are for storms to develop along a majority of
the cold front by Monday afternoon. Rich low-level moisture is
forecast to be present ahead of the front, and diurnal heating of
this moist low-level airmass should foster the development of weak
to moderate instability over much of the warm sector. The strongest
mid-level flow may tend to lag the cold front slightly based on
latest model guidance. But, there should still be enough deep-layer
shear to support organized updrafts. The best forecast combination
of instability and shear currently appears to extend across parts of
the Northeast into the Mid-Atlantic in closer proximity to the
surface low and upper trough. Convection will probably tend to
become linear fairly quickly given the cold front serving as a
forcing mechanism, and strong to damaging winds should be the main
threat along/ahead of the front.
The mid-level flow does weaken some with southward extent along the
front, especially into the lower MS Valley and southern Plains.
However, instability is forecast to be greater across these regions,
which may help compensate to some extent for the modest deep-layer
shear. Storms should eventually weaken Monday night along the length
of the front as the boundary layer gradually stabilizes with the
loss of daytime heating.

the Mid-Atlantic and Southeast. Strong to damaging wind gusts should
be the main threat.
...Mid-Atlantic/Southeast...
A highly amplified upper trough is forecast to move slowly across
the eastern CONUS on Tuesday. A surface front should likewise
develop east-southeastward across the East Coast through the day.
Low-level convergence along this front will probably remain weak
owing to veered southwesterly low-level flow along/ahead of it.
Still, an increase in convection will probably occur by Tuesday
afternoon across parts of the Mid-Atlantic and Southeast. There is
concern that this activity may either be slightly post-frontal or
have a tendency to be undercut by the front. Regardless, weak
instability and strengthening winds with height through low/mid
levels are forecast, and isolated strong/gusty winds may occur with
the more robust storms before they move offshore by Tuesday evening.
Some differences in model guidance still exist regarding the
placement and motion of the front Tuesday morning/afternoon. Have
opted to account for the slightly slower motion depicted by the 00Z
ECMWF, which would allow for more of the coastal Mid-Atlantic to
destabilize late Tuesday morning and early afternoon compared to
other guidance which shows a faster progression of the cold front.
...Midwest...
Strong northwesterly flow should be present over much of the Midwest
on the back side of the previously mentioned upper trough.
South-southwesterly low-level winds may transport modest moisture
northward across parts of IA and vicinity through the day. The 00Z
NAM shows substantially more instability developing across this area
by Tuesday afternoon compared to other guidance. If the more robust
low-level moisture return does occur, then a conditional severe
threat may exist since deep-layer shear should be quite strong. But,
too much uncertainty exists regarding the development of sufficient boundary-layer instability to include any severe probabilities at
this time.

...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
Organized severe thunderstorms currently appear unlikely across the
contiguous United States on Wednesday.
...Synopsis and Discussion...
A closed upper low should remain off the coast of northern CA on
Wednesday, while downstream upper ridging persists over much of the central/southern Rockies and High Plains. Farther north, a shortwave
trough embedded within the mid-level westerlies over Canada should
move southeastward towards the northern Plains by Wednesday evening.
Rich low-level moisture is forecast to continue advecting northward
across much of the southern/central Plains to the east of a lee
trough/dryline.
There is considerable uncertainty regarding the strength of the cap
that will be present over the warm sector, and upper ridging over
the Rockies and adjacent High Plains will probably tend to suppress
convective development across the warm sector through peak afternoon
heating. Still, some guidance suggests storms may eventually form
Wednesday night across parts of the central Plains and/or Midwest as
a southerly low-level jet strengthens. If these storms were to
develop, then an isolated severe threat may exist given the presence
of sufficient deep-layer shear and steep mid-level lapse rates
supporting moderate to strong elevated instability. However, this
potential currently appears too uncertain/conditional to include
severe probabilities.

...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
THE CENTRAL PLAINS INTO THE UPPER MIDWEST...
...SUMMARY...
Isolated to scattered severe thunderstorms will be possible on
Thursday across parts of the central Plains into the Upper Midwest.
...Central Plains into the Upper Midwest...
Primarily elevated storms may be ongoing Thursday morning across
parts of the Upper Midwest, likely aided by low-level warm
advection. Additional storms should form by Thursday afternoon along
and ahead of a cold front which is forecast to extend from near the
U.P. of MI southwestward to the central Plains. Low-level moisture
should increase through the day ahead of the front and to the
northeast of a surface low which should be centered along/near the
KS/NE border. Steep mid-level lapse rates will likely be present
across the central Plains and perhaps into parts of IA if convection
is not ongoing Thursday morning. Generally moderate to strong
instability should develop ahead of the front, with slightly less
robust values with northeastward extent into WI and the U.P. of MI.
The strongest westerly mid-level flow associated with an upper
trough/low is forecast to remain mostly displaced to the north
across Canada. Even so, enough veering/strengthening of the wind
profile with height through mid/upper levels should be present to
support organized severe storms.
The best potential for severe will likely be present along and to
the southwest of any morning convection. There is still uncertainty
regarding the placement and overall coverage of any morning storms,
and the northeastward extent of strong destabilization that may
occur across the Upper Midwest. Regardless, the forecast combination
of moderate to strong instability and shear suggest that any storms
that can form along the front will probably become severe fairly
quickly. Both large hail and severe/damaging wind gusts may occur.
There is some indication in model guidance that storms may grow
upscale into a cluster through Thursday evening across parts of
central/eastern NE into western/central IA and perhaps northern MO
as a south-southwesterly low-level jet strengthens. If this were to
occur, then damaging winds would become the main threat.

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
THE SOUTHERN/CENTRAL PLAINS TO THE MIDWEST/GREAT LAKES...
...SUMMARY...
Isolated strong to severe storms may occur Friday from portions of
the southern/central Plains to the Midwest and southern Great Lakes.
...Southern/Central Plains to the Midwest...
A positively tilted upper trough should advance slowly eastward
across the northern/central Plains and Upper Midwest on Friday. A
belt of modestly enhanced mid-level west-southwesterly flow should
exist from parts of the southern/central High Plains to the
Midwest/Great Lakes on the southern fringe of the upper trough. At
the surface, a weak low may develop from parts of the Midwest to the
southern Great Lakes by Friday evening, while a separate low remains
over the central High Plains. A weak front should extend between
these two surface lows across the central Plains and mid MS Valley.
Any appreciable severe threat will mostly remain confined along and
south of the weak front. There is considerable uncertainty in model
guidance regarding the placement of this boundary Friday afternoon,
as storms ongoing Friday morning may shunt the rich low-level
moisture farther south along various outflow boundaries. Regardless,
at least weak to locally moderate instability should develop south
of the front where diurnal heating of the moist low-level airmass
can occur. Mid-level winds are not forecast to be overly strong, but
they should still be sufficient for some storm organization. A mix
of multicell clusters and supercells appears possible, posing an
isolated threat for both large hail and severe wind gusts.
For now, a broad area of low severe probabilities has been included
from parts of the southern/central High Plains to the Midwest and
southern Great Lakes where there is some degree of confidence that surface-based storms may occur. Once confidence increases in the
placement of storms that will likely be ongoing Friday morning, and
when one or more corridors of greater destabilization can be
ascertained, then greater severe probabilities will probably be
needed.

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
THE SOUTHERN/CENTRAL PLAINS TO THE MID MISSISSIPPI VALLEY/MIDWEST
AND GREAT LAKES...
...SUMMARY...
Isolated strong to severe storms appear possible from parts of the southern/central Plains to the mid Mississippi Valley/Midwest and
Great Lakes on Saturday.
...Southern/Central Plains to the Mid Mississippi Valley/Midwest and
Great Lakes...
A positively tilted upper trough should move slowly eastward across
the northern/central Plains towards the Upper Midwest and Great
Lakes on Saturday. A belt of modestly enhanced mid-level
southwesterly flow will likely persist over portions of the
southern/central Plains into the mid MS Valley/Midwest and Great
Lakes through much of the period. A weak surface low initially over
IA and vicinity should develop northeastward slowly through the day.
A cold front should extend southwestward from this low across the central/southern Plains.
Storms will probably be ongoing Saturday morning across parts of the
central Plains and mid MS Valley where a southwesterly low-level jet
is forecast to be located. With time, renewed convective development
should occur Saturday afternoon along/south of the length of the
front. One or more convectively reinforced outflow boundaries from
prior storms south of the synoptic front may also provide a focus
for convection. Even though low-level flow should be veered to a
generally southwesterly direction across the warm sector, enough veering/strengthening of the wind profile with height should support
weak to moderate deep-layer shear and some storm organization.
Multicells and clusters will probably develop fairly quickly and
subsequently move east-southeastward given the linear nature of the
front and possible outflow boundaries. Both isolated damaging winds
and severe hail appear possible.
There remains considerable uncertainty in the placement and overall
coverage of storms Saturday morning, and their influence on
afternoon destabilization remains unclear. At this point, the best
potential for moderate to locally strong instability to be realized
may occur from parts of the mid MS Valley northeastward to the
southern Great Lakes vicinity. If current model trends regarding
forecast instability continue, then greater severe probabilities may
need to be included from parts of pars of central/eastern MO across
IL/IN and into southern Lower MI. Regardless, there is too much
uncertainty regarding prior convection to introduce higher severe
probabilities yet.

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PORTIONS
OF CENTRAL/EAST-CENTRAL ILLINOIS...NORTHERN INDIANA...FAR NORTHWEST
OHIO...AND LOWER MICHIGAN...
...SUMMARY...
Isolated severe thunderstorms are possible across portions of central/east-central Illinois, northern Indiana, far northwest Ohio,
and Lower Michigan Sunday afternoon.
...Synopsis...
A strong Rex block, with the high centered over southern British
Columbia and the low centered well off the northern CA coast (near
130W), will likely be in place over the western CONUS early Sunday.
Farther east, the western periphery of an expansive upper ridge
(centered well off the Mid-Atlantic coast over the western Atlantic
Ocean) will cover much of the eastern CONUS. Upper troughing will
exist between these two features, likely extending from the Upper
Midwest through the Southwest on Sunday morning.
At the surface, a low is forecast to begin the period over southern
WI, with an attendant cold front extending back southwestward into
the southern High Plains. This low is expected to progress
northeastward throughout the day while the associated front becomes increasingly diffuse. However, even as the front weakens, low-level
convergence within the moist and unstable air mass will likely be
enough to promote thunderstorm development. Much of this
thunderstorm development will occur in a weakly sheared environment
with the cold front/composite outflow displaced south and east of
the stronger mid-level flow. The only exception will be in the
vicinity of the surface low as it moves from southern WI across
Lower MI. Here, a few more organized updrafts are possible, with an
attendant threat for damaging wind gusts, isolated hail, and perhaps
a tornado or two. Higher severe probabilities may be needed in later
outlooks once frontal position and the effects of antecedent
precipitation are more certain.

...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
Thunderstorms are likely from the Southwest across the southern
Plains into much of the Ohio Valley on Monday.
...Synopsis...
Upper ridge anchoring the northwest CONUS/southwest Canada omega
block is expected to persist throughout the day Monday, even as a
shortwave trough progresses through its western periphery. Upper
troughing is forecast to be in place from Ontario southwestward into
NM early Monday, with little progression and modest dampening
anticipated throughout the period. Subtropical ridging across the
eastern CONUS is also expected to remain in place. Overall, a
relatively stagnant upper pattern is current forecast.
Confluent mid-level flow will foster a belt of slightly stronger
southwesterly winds aloft from the Ozark Plateau through the Upper
Great Lakes. Some modest surface convergence is also possible along
a diffuse/remnant cold front just south/east of the belt of stronger
flow aloft. This convergence will likely result in scattered
thunderstorm development amid the moist air mass in place. Scattered thunderstorms are also anticipated across the southern Plains and
Southwest.
Despite several areas with scattered to numerous thunderstorms, weak
vertical shear will preclude severe thunderstorms except on an isolated/localized basis, dictated predominantly by mesoscale
factors. Predictability of these mesoscale factors, including the
location of outflow boundaries and pockets of stronger diurnal
heating, is low at this forecast range, precluding the confidence
needed to introduce any severe probabilities.

...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
Thunderstorms are possible from the Four Corners/Southeast across
the southern Plains and over much of the eastern CONUS. Severe
thunderstorms are not currently expected.
...Synopsis...
Upper ridge anchoring the Pacific Northwest/southwest Canada omega
block is forecast to weaken as it gradually drifts eastward
throughout the period. Farther east, subtropical ridging centered
just off the northern Mid-Atlantic Coast is expected to build
eastward into more of the southern Plains, and a shortwave trough
will likely move through the Upper Midwest and Upper Great Lakes
region.
Surface pattern east of the Rockies will be characterized by weak
winds and a stationary front between the more moist air mass from
the MS Valley eastward and the more continental airmass over the central/northern Plains. Thunderstorm development is anticipated
along this boundary from central OK/KS northeastward into the Mid MS
Valley. Thunderstorms are also expected within the very moist air
mass across the Southeast and Carolinas. Increasing mid-level
moisture should lead to at least isolated thunderstorms from the
Four Corners eastward into portions of southern/central CA. Weak
shear should limit the severe threat in all of these regions.
An associated surface low is forecast to precede the shortwave
trough expected to move through the Upper Midwest and Upper Great
Lakes. Buoyancy will be lower here than areas farther south, but
thunderstorms may still develop in the vicinity of the surface low
as it moves eastward. Slightly stronger mid-level flow will result
in better vertical shear than areas farther south, and a few storms
may become strong to severe. Even so, limited storm coverage and
low predictability regarding the surface low position and strength,
as well as the effects of antecedent precipitation, preclude
introducing any probabilities with this outlook.

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE UPPER
OH VALLEY INTO THE NORTHEAST STATES...
...SUMMARY...
Isolated severe thunderstorms are possible Wednesday afternoon and
evening from the Upper Ohio Valley into Northeast States.
...Synopsis...
Subtropical ridging is forecast to persist across the southern
Plains and Southeast States on Wednesday, while a weak upper flow
regime continues over the Southwest and Great Basin. Upper ridging
centered of southern Alberta early Wednesday is expected to
gradually shift eastward throughout the day as a compact shortwave
trough traverses its western periphery over British Columbia.
Lastly, a series of shortwave troughs will likely progress through
the base of an upper trough extending from the Hudson Bay into the
Upper Midwest early Wednesday. Evolution of these shortwaves coupled
with the eastern moving upper ridge will likely result in an overall
eastward progression of the upper trough, with some deepening also
possible.
...Upper OH Valley into the Northeast States...
Stronger mid-level flow through the base of the upper trough
mentioned in the synopsis will gradually shift southward into more
of the Upper OH Valley and Northeast as the upper trough deepens.
This stronger flow aloft will overlie a very moist and at least
moderately unstable air mass, characterized by upper 60 to low 70
dewpoints. This air mass is expected to destabilize amid daytime
heating, with low-level convergence and increasing large-scale
forcing for ascent attendant to an approaching shortwave trough both contributing to widespread thunderstorm development.
A predominantly multicellular storm mode is anticipated, but a few
more organized line segments are possible, with an attendant threat
for damaging wind gusts. Some isolated hail is also possible,
particularly in areas where diurnal heating and resulting
instability are strongest. Veered low-level flow and a mostly linear
storm mode should keep the tornado potential low. Uncertainties
regarding the effects of antecedent showers and thunderstorms as
well as some run-to-run variability within the guidance merits only
including 5% severe probabilities with this outlook. Higher
probabilities may be needed in later outlooks if current trends
within the guidance continue.

...SUMMARY...
Scattered to numerous thunderstorms are possible from the Southwest
eastward across the southern Plains and Southeast, and into
Carolinas on Friday. Isolated thunderstorms may also occur across
the Sierra and northern Great Basin. Severe thunderstorms are not
currently expected.
...Synopsis...
Upper ridging is expected to be in place over the central CONUS
early Friday morning, while upper troughing covers the eastern
CONUS. Central CONUS ridging will likely remain in place throughout
the day, with some modest dampening. Gradual eastward progression of
the upper trough is anticipated, with the trough forecast to extend
from New England south-southwestward through the Mid-Atlantic and
then back more southwestward across the Southeast early Saturday
morning. Upper pattern across the western CONUS nebulous amid
relatively weak flow. Weak ridging will likely drift westward across
the Southwest.
At the surface, a cold front along the leading edge of a more
continental air mass will gradually drop southward/eastward into
more of the southern Plains, Southeast and Mid-Atlantic.
Thunderstorms will likely be ongoing along this front early Friday
morning, particularly over the southern Plains. Additional
thunderstorm development is expected along the front as it continues southward/eastward, with scattered to widespread coverage possible
during the afternoon/evening.
In general, these storms are expected to remain sub-severe. Across
the southern Plains and much of the Southeast, weak vertical shear
should limit storm intensity. Slightly stronger vertical shear is
possible over the central/eastern Carolinas, but limited destabilization/abundant cloud cover should temper updraft strength.
