Subj : DAY48SVR: Nws Storm Prediction Center Norman Ok To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Wed Jun 07 2023 09:00:20 ACUS48 KWNS 070900 SWOD48 SPC AC 070858 Day 4-8 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0358 AM CDT Wed Jun 07 2023 Valid 101200Z - 151200Z ....DISCUSSION... Medium-range guidance is in reasonably good agreement that a low-amplitude shortwave trough will advance eastward from the southern High Plains across much of OK/TX on Day 4/Saturday. A surface dryline should mix eastward across these same areas through the day. Mid 60s to low 70s surface dewpoints are generally forecast ahead of the dryline. Daytime heating of this moist low-level airmass, combined with steep mid-level lapse rates, should foster the development of at least moderate instability by late Saturday afternoon. Even though mid-level flow should not be overly strong, sufficient deep-layer shear to support organized multicells and perhaps some supercells should be present. Any thunderstorms that can form along the dryline, or farther east in the warm sector along/south of a developing warm front, should be capable of producing large hail and severe wind gusts. Given greater confidence in convection occurring, have introduced a 15% severe area for Saturday across parts of OK/TX. Some severe threat will probably exist on Day 5/Sunday along/south of a front from portions of the southern Plains into the lower/mid MS Valley and Southeast as an upper trough/low becomes established over the Upper Midwest. However, confidence is low in the details of robust thunderstorm evolution/placement due to the prior day's convection, and its potential to overturn much of the warm sector. Although uncertainty remains, it appears increasingly probable that some form of an upper trough and related strong mid-level jet will impact parts of the southern/central Plains into the lower/mid MS Valley and Southeast from Day 6/Monday through Day 8/Wednesday. These features will likely overlap an expansive warm sector across these regions. Depending on the timing, amplitude, and strength of the upper trough, some severe risk will probably exist each day next week. Still, too much model spread exists to highlight favored corridors of severe potential in this extended time frame. ...Gleason.. 06/07/2023 = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
