Subj : DAY1SVR: Day 1 Convective Outlook To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Mon Mar 20 2023 16:05:39 ACUS01 KWNS 201605 SWODY1 SPC AC 201603 Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1103 AM CDT Mon Mar 20 2023 Valid 201630Z - 211200Z ....NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST... ....SUMMARY... Severe thunderstorms are not expected today. ....Synopsis... A midlevel shortwave impulse will continue to shift east across the Great Basin toward the central Rockies today/tonight. Midlevel moisture, and cool temperatures aloft, combined with steep lapse rates will support 100-300 J/kg MUCAPE. Isolated lightning flashes will continue through the forecast period, especially across southeast ID, UT and western CO. Very modest effective shear, and generally cool and dry low-levels will preclude severe potential. Late tonight, low-level warm advection is forecast across the southern Plains vicinity as weak cyclogenesis occurs over eastern CO in response to the approaching western CONUS shortwave trough. Boundary-layer moisture will remain modest, but increasing midlevel moisture, and steepening lapse rates should be sufficient for developing weak elevated instability through the -12 to -25 C layer. As such, a few lightning flashes are possible across parts of OK/KS after 06z tonight. ...Leitman.. 03/20/2023 $$ = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
