Subj : DAY2SVR: Nws Storm Prediction Center Norman Ok To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Thu Mar 16 2023 17:01:09 ACUS02 KWNS 161701 SWODY2 SPC AC 161659 Day 2 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1159 AM CDT Thu Mar 16 2023 Valid 171200Z - 181200Z ....THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM SOUTHERN LOUISIANA EASTWARD TO THE FLORIDA PANHANDLE... ....SUMMARY... A few severe thunderstorms will be possible Friday from southern Louisiana eastward to the Florida Panhandle. Damaging winds appear to be the main threat. ....Southeast/Gulf Coast States... On Friday, a low amplitude shortwave trough will move quickly from the lower MS and OH Valleys toward the Mid Atlantic, with modest height falls across the Southeast. A deep surface low will pivot from the Upper Great Lakes into Canada, with a lengthy cold front trailing south across the Appalachians and into the central Gulf Coast by 18Z. Just off the surface, 850 winds will exceed 50 kt as far south as central MS/AL/GA, but will rapidly veer with the higher speeds shifting eastward during the day. Surface temperatures are forecast to remain relatively cool with dewpoints to 60 F as far north as central MS/AL/GA during the day, but SBCAPE will be most favorable over far southern parts of those states, as well as southeast LA and the FL Panhandle. Storms are likely to be ongoing near the front from southeast TX into LA and MS at 12Z Friday, and these will persist throughout the day and shift east. Strong wind fields may result in locally damaging gusts with activity along the front and before the cool air undercuts from the northwest. Given the veering low-level flow and marginal instability, the overall tornado risk is expected to be low. However, modest SRH may support areas of rotation. Late in the period, a plume of stronger instability may affect the coastal FL Panhandle, and conditions for a supercell or two may be maximized there. ...Jewell.. 03/16/2023 $$ = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
