Subj : DAY1SVR: Day 1 Convective Outlook To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Thu Jan 19 2023 16:23:59 ACUS01 KWNS 191623 SWODY1 SPC AC 191622 Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1022 AM CST Thu Jan 19 2023 Valid 191630Z - 201200Z ....THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WESTERN AND CENTRAL OHIO... ....SUMMARY... Low-topped thunderstorms are expected to develop over eastern Indiana and move rapidly east across Ohio this afternoon into early evening. Scattered severe wind gusts from 60-80 mph are most likely between 3 to 7 PM EST in western to central Ohio. ....Eastern IN and OH... A potent mid-level vorticity maximum over IL, embedded within the broader central CONUS trough, will eject east into OH through this evening. This feature will aid in sharpening an associated surface cold front that will rapidly progress east. Low-topped thunderstorms are expected to initiate across eastern IN towards early to mid-afternoon in a broken arc along the front. Within the exit region of an intense mid-level jet, this convection is expected to race east across OH through the afternoon. While SBCAPE will likely be meager, holding at or below 500 J/kg, nearly full insolation across the Lower to Middle OH Valley will yield steep 0-3 km lapse rates. This should support downward momentum transport of 50+ kt low-level winds as convection matures. Some 12Z HREF members (HRW-ARW, HRRR, and NAM-Nest) suggest boundary-layer max winds may reach 65-70 kts within rear inflow, supporting peak surface wind gusts across western to central OH. The arcing convective band will weaken after sunset as surface-based instability dwindles, but strong gusts may persist until convection dissipates in the western to central PA vicinity. ...Grams/Flournoy/Gleason.. 01/19/2023 $$ = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
