Subj : DAY1SVR: Day 1 Convective Outlook To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Thu Dec 15 2022 19:49:58 ACUS01 KWNS 151949 SWODY1 SPC AC 151948 Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0148 PM CST Thu Dec 15 2022 Valid 152000Z - 161200Z ....THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF THE CENTRAL FLORIDA PENINSULA... ....SUMMARY... A couple tornadoes and occasional damaging winds remain possible this afternoon over parts of the central Florida Peninsula. ....20Z Update... Severe probabilities have been trimmed across the FL Peninsula as a broken line of convection spreads slowly east-southeastward ahead of a cold front. Low-level flow is expected to gradually veer and weaken through the rest of the afternoon. While a brief tornado or two and occasional damaging winds remain possible across parts of the central FL Peninsula this afternoon, this threat should diminish by early evening. An isolated severe threat persists this afternoon across parts of the Carolinas along and ahead of a cold front. Although instability remains weak across this area, strong low/mid-level flow would support updraft organization with any robust thunderstorm that can form. However, this potential still appears rather low/marginal. ...Gleason.. 12/15/2022 ..PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 1015 AM CST Thu Dec 15 2022/ ....FL... A large upper low is in place today over much of the CONUS, with the primary surface cold front sagging southward into the FL peninsula and southeast states. A line of intense thunderstorms along/ahead of the front will move into central FL this afternoon, where rich low level moisture and considerable low-level vertical shear is present. Several of these storms have shown supercell/bowing structures offshore, and also as they have moved inland this morning. This scenario will likely continue through at least early afternoon, before a gradual weakening of wind fields diminishes the severe threat. Please refer to MCD #2045 for further short-term details. ....GA/SC/NC... The main surface cold front extends from the western Carolinas into east GA. Southerly low-level winds ahead of the front will maintain dewpoints in the 50s and 60s, along with marginal CAPE. While the thermodynamic environment appears weak, very strong low and mid-level winds/shear suggest a risk of brief organization of any deep convection that can be maintained. Locally gusty winds or a brief tornado cannot be ruled out until the front moves offshore late this afternoon or early evening. $$ = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
