Subj : DAY1SVR: Day 1 Convective Outlook To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Wed Aug 30 2023 00:58:33 ACUS01 KWNS 300058 SWODY1 SPC AC 300057 Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0757 PM CDT Tue Aug 29 2023 Valid 300100Z - 301200Z ....THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR WESTERN PORTIONS OF THE FLORIDA PENINSULA INTO THE BIG BEND OF FLORIDA... ....SUMMARY... A few tornadoes will be possible tonight, mainly from the west-central Florida Peninsula into the Big Bend area, within the northeast quadrant of strengthening Hurricane Idalia. ....FL... Hurricane Idalia will continue moving north-northeast tonight and be located over the continental shelf waters near the Big Bend of FL by early Wednesday morning. The wind fields in the northeast quadrant will continue to intensify this evening initially near the Tampa Bay vicinity, and later spreading into the northern portion of the Peninsula. A few mini supercells are forecast to develop with an attendant isolated risk for tornadoes. A few damaging gusts may also accompany the more outflow-dominant bands/convective surges with the more intense spiral bands. Have removed low-severe probabilities over the Keys and the Everglades based on observed wind fields (i.e., 00z Key West and Miami raobs and 88D VAD data) being substantially weaker than farther north. ....Northern Rockies... Water-vapor imagery early this evening shows a vigorous mid-level shortwave trough over the Columbia Basin with this feature forecast to move northeast through the northern Rockies tonight. Scattered thunderstorms over western MT into northern ID will continue to move northeast through the evening. The 00z Great Falls, MT raob showed dry adiabatic 0-4 km lapse rates and an inverted-v profile. The threat for isolated severe gusts will be the hazard with the stronger storms through mid-late evening before convective overturning and instability wanes. ...Smith.. 08/30/2023 $$ = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
