Subj : DAY1SVR: Day 1 Convective Outlook To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Sat Aug 26 2023 16:29:12 ACUS01 KWNS 261629 SWODY1 SPC AC 261627 Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1127 AM CDT Sat Aug 26 2023 Valid 261630Z - 271200Z ....THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON/EVENING ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST MO/NORTHEAST AR AREA... ....SUMMARY... Occasional damaging gusts will be possible this afternoon and evening across southeast Missouri/northeast Arkansas and vicinity, with more isolated strong winds possible into the southern Appalachians and across parts of Idaho and Oregon. ....Southeast MO/northeast AR area this afternoon/evening... The persistent midlevel high continues to slowly weaken over the southern Plains, while a series of MCVs rotate around the northern and eastern periphery of the high, from KS to the southern Appalachians. The most pronounced MCV is now moving southeastward over northwest MO and will interact with the unstable warm sector this afternoon in the vicinity of southeast MO, where additional thunderstorm development is expected south of the ongoing convection near Saint Louis. Daytime heating in cloud breaks and boundary-layer dewpoints in the mid 70s will result in MLCAPE of 2500-3000 J/kg, and lapse rate profiles will also favor strong downdrafts (DCAPE of 1000-1500 J/kg). Primarily multicell clusters are expected as a result of weak vertical shear in the warm sector ahead of the MCV. Damaging outflow winds will be the main severe threat from mid-late afternoon into this evening. ....Southern ID/eastern OR this afternoon/evening... A weak mid-upper speed max is translating northward around the western periphery of the ridge from the southern Plains into the Rockies. A band of ascent and midlevel moisture, coincident with surface heating in cloud breaks, will support scattered thunderstorm development this afternoon into this evening. Typical inverted-V profiles and some modest enhancement to deep-layer vertical shear will support somewhat organized cells (and perhaps a low-end supercell) capable of producing isolated strong-severe outflow gusts. ...Thompson/Lyons.. 08/26/2023 $$ = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
