A strong shortwave trough is forecast to extend from northwestern Ontario southward into the mid MS Valley early D4/Thursday. This shortwave is expected to becoming increasingly negatively tilted as it progresses eastward throughout the day. Buoyancy will likely be limited across Lower MI and the OH Valley as this shortwave and attendant cold front move through, mitigating the severe-thunderstorm potential. This cold front will continue eastward into the Northeast on D5/Friday, and some low-probability severe potential may develop over southern New England as a weak surface low deepens ahead of the front. Strong upper ridging is expected to build across the central CONUS in the wake of this shortwave trough. This ridging is expected to persist into early next week while drifting gradually eastward. Recent guidance suggests a surface low may develop over the Dakotas on D6/Saturday amid westerly flow aloft and ample low-level moisture. However, poor consistency within the guidance limits forecast confidence regarding the development of this. Even if this low does develop, warm mid-level temperature will likely suppress thunderstorm development. ...Mosier.. 08/14/2023 = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
