For the period Thursday/D4 through Friday/D5, a positive-tilt upper trough is forecast to move across the Southeast with west/southwest 500 mb winds around 40 kt. At the surface, weak low pressure may develop over the lower MS Valley and move toward the OH Valley as mid 60 F dewpoints return to the Gulf Coast states. This type of pattern typically has low predictability due to the potential for widespread precipitation, and a nebulous shortwave with uncertain amplitude. ECMWF ensemble mean fields support this notion, with MUCAPE generally 500-1000 J/kg and areas of storms throughout the period. However, areas of severe could be added as the event nears and predictability increases.
