Subj : DAY48SVR: Nws Storm Prediction Center Norman Ok To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Fri Dec 16 2022 09:46:01 ACUS48 KWNS 160945 SWOD48 SPC AC 160944 Day 4-8 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0344 AM CST Fri Dec 16 2022 Valid 191200Z - 241200Z ....DISCUSSION... ....Monday/Day 4 and Tuesday/Day 5... A progressive shortwave trough is forecast to move across northern Mexico on Monday and into the southern Plains on Tuesday. Thunderstorm development will be likely ahead of the system in the Gulf States both on Monday and Tuesday. However, surface dewpoints in the immediate coastal areas from Texas to Florida are forecast to remain mostly in the 40s F. This will limit instability, making conditions generally unfavorable for severe storms. If moisture return ends up being more than is currently forecast, then an isolated but confined severe threat would be possible each day. ....Wednesday/Day 6 to Friday/Day 8... An upper-level trough is forecast to dig southeastward into the central and eastern U.S. on Wednesday and Thursday. North-northwest flow aloft will contribute to a strong cold front moving rapidly southward across the Great Plains on Thursday. This cold and dry airmass will settle over much of the central U.S. on Friday. Due to limited moisture return, little thunderstorm activity is expected during the mid to late week. ...Broyles.. 12/16/2022 = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
