Medium-range guidance continues to indicate a blocking pattern across the eastern CONUS this weekend, with modest ridging across the southern Plains. Upper troughing will likely persist across the western CONUS, with several shortwave troughs potentially moving within this troughing into the High Plains. However, given the weak flow expected to be in place and the lack of more definable features, predictability of these waves is limited. Even with the somewhat low predictability of upper pattern, the surface pattern will likely be well established, with ridging extending from Upper Midwest into the Northeast and lee troughing across the High Plains. As such, a repeated scenario of daily afternoon thunderstorm development across the southern and central High Plains is anticipated. This will result in a broad area of at least low severe potential across the High Plains through the weekend and into early next week. Some corridors of greater severe potential may become apparent as the forecast range decreases. ...Mosier.. 05/23/2023 = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
