Medium-range models, and their corresponding ensembles, continue to depict a scenario fairly consistent with runs over the past couple of days, with perhaps a slightly slower evolution of the progression of the substantial upper trough/low. This feature is progged to move across the Rockies Day 4/Monday, the central Plains Day 5/Tuesday, and then the Mid Missouri Valley Day 6/Wednesday, before traversing the Midwest/Ohio Valley Day 7 and then the Central Appalachians Day 8. Day 4/Monday, as ascent increases across the southern Plains as suggested by the onset of mid-level height falls, elevated convection will evolve across the central and into the southern Plains. Even south of the Red River, storms should remain largely atop a shallow surface-based stable layer, suggesting that any severe risk should be in the form of hail, and appearing insufficient at this time to continue with the 15% risk area. Day 5/Tuesday, progression of the front across the southern Plains will occur, reaching the Ozarks/Arklatex/East Texas area by early evening. Ahead of the front, strong southerly winds will advect seasonably rich Gulf moisture northward, likely resulting in sufficient instability for the development of severe/supercell storms. At this time, the greatest risk remains apparent from roughly the Arklatex region eastward straddling the Arkansas/Louisiana border, where very strong/veering flow with height should combine with ample CAPE to yield all-hazards severe risk, including tornado potential. Severe risk will likely continue overnight and into Day 6/Wednesday, though a persistent antecedent surface high/cold air damming into the southern Appalachians should suppress instability -- and thus severe potential -- progressively farther southward as storms shift eastward across the Gulf Coast states through the day. Still, all-hazards severe risk is apparent across southern parts of Mississippi and Alabama, and into the Florida Panhandle overnight, warranting inclusion of a 15% area for Day 6. Day 7/Thursday, persistence of the damming high should continue to suppress instability southward. While some severe risk could locally evolve across the Florida Peninsula, potential appears too low to warrant areal inclusion. With the front currently expected to move offshore overnight Thursday or early Friday, severe weather potential should shift away from the mainland. ...Goss.. 12/09/2022 = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
