Subj : DAY1SVR: Day 1 Convective Outlook To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Wed Jan 04 2023 00:54:44 ACUS01 KWNS 040054 SWODY1 SPC AC 040053 Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0653 PM CST Tue Jan 03 2023 Valid 040100Z - 041200Z ....THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM SOUTHERN MISSISSIPPI ACROSS SOUTHERN AND CENTRAL ALABAMA INCLUDING PARTS OF THE FLORIDA PANHANDLE... ....SUMMARY... Tornadoes and damaging gusts remain possible across parts of the Southeast, particularly from southern Mississippi into Alabama, far southwest Georgia and the Florida Panhandle. A strong tornado may occur overnight. ....Southeastern states... The influence of a leading wave which moved out of AL and into GA is currently affecting low-level wind fields over AL, MS and LA this evening, reducing SRH in some areas. However, the main upper trough will move toward the MS Valley tonight, with increasing large-scale ascent over the region. Surface dewpoints in the upper 60s F to lower 70s F will maintain an unstable air mass ahead of a cold front, with a degree of air mass recovery possible over parts of AL and perhaps southwest GA. Numerous storms are expected to develop near the cold front tonight, with an attendant increase in storm relative helicity with 850 mb winds possibly to 50 kt by 12Z Wednesday over AL and western GA. Given the increasing wind shear and favorable ascent, storms may become supercells, either lone or within a broken line, with a threat of tornadoes. By Wednesday morning, the severe threat may extend as far east as southwest GA, and across parts of the FL Panhandle. ....Eastern IL into IN... With the loss of heating, boundary-layer cooling will gradually stabilize the air mass, while drier air also pushes eastward just off the surface with veering 850 mb winds. As such, the threat for small supercells will be confined to near the surface low track over the next hour or two, with waning threat over time. Until then, an isolated brief/weak tornado cannot be ruled out this evening. ...Jewell.. 01/04/2023 $$ = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
