Isolated severe thunderstorms, associated with wind-damage and hail, will be possible on Sunday in parts of the Southeast. Marginally severe storms will be possible further north into parts of the Ohio Valley and southern Great Lakes. ....Southeast/Southern and Central Appalachians/Ohio Valley/Southern Great Lakes... An upper-level low is forecast to move northeastward into the mid Mississippi Valley on Sunday, as a cold front advances eastward through the Ohio and Tennessee Valleys. Surface dewpoints are forecast to reach the lower to mid 60s F across much of Georgia and South Carolina. Surface heating will likely contribute to a pocket of moderate instability ahead of the front from central Georgia into western South Carolina. Thunderstorms are expected to form along the instability corridor during the afternoon, with a few clusters moving eastward toward the southern Atlantic Seaboard. Thunderstorm development will have the benefit of divergent flow aloft, along with a 30 to 40 knot low-level jet. NAM forecast soundings during the afternoon from central Georgia into western South Carolina have veered low-level winds, with steep low-lapse rates and 0-6 km shear of 30 to 35 knots. This should be sufficient for isolated wind damage with the faster-moving and more organized line segments. Hail will also be possible. The severe threat is expected to be concentrated during the mid to late afternoon, when low-level lapse rates will likely be the steepest. Further north, from parts of the southern Appalachians into the southern Great Lakes, scattered thunderstorms are expected to develop during the afternoon. The most likely location for convection will be along a warm front moving northeastward across the region. Along and behind the warm front, model forecast show weak instability along a narrow tongue of low-level moisture. Although deep-layer shear is forecast to be strong near the moist axis, the more limited instability should keep any severe threat marginal. A few damaging wind gusts could occur with line segments that have access to locally greater instability. ...Broyles.. 04/14/2023 $$ = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
