Subj : DAY1SVR: Day 1 Convective Outlook To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Wed Aug 30 2023 16:28:14 ACUS01 KWNS 301628 SWODY1 SPC AC 301626 Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1126 AM CDT Wed Aug 30 2023 Valid 301630Z - 311200Z ....THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH TONIGHT FOR COASTAL SC AND SOUTHERN COASTAL NC... ....SUMMARY... A few tornadoes are expected through tonight from southeast Georgia into the coastal Carolinas in association with Hurricane Idalia. ....Southeast Atlantic coast through tonight... The weakening remnants of Hurricane Idalia are forecast to continue moving northeastward near the southeast Atlantic coast through tonight (see latest NHC advisories for additional information). Flow will continue to veer and weaken across central/north FL and the tornado threat will likewise diminish through the afternoon. Farther north, more backed low-level flow and larger, curved hodographs (effective SRH 300-400 m2/s2) are expected in advance of Idalia's core across some of southeast GA and coastal SC this afternoon. Inland rainfall will reinforce a coastal baroclinic zone which will help focus the tornado threat near and just inland from the coast where surface-based buoyancy will be largest, as outer rain band supercells move inland. A similar environment and attendant tornado threat will spread northeastward across coastal NC late this afternoon through tonight. ....New England this afternoon... A pronounced midlevel trough will move over New England this afternoon along with an associated surface cold front. There will be a narrow zone of destabilization along the front, where weak bands of convection will be possible with a very low chance of wind damage given the moderately strong midlevel flow. However, will not add an outlook area since the window of opportunity will be small and confidence in storm development is relatively low. ....Eastern MT/western ND this afternoon/evening... A midlevel shortwave trough will progress eastward from the northern Rockies to the northern High Plains, and this midlevel trough will be preceded by a surface trough/cold front. Some high-based convection could occur along the front in the limited-moisture environment, and this convection could produce gusty outflow winds. The chance for severe outflow winds appears relatively low, precluding the need for an outlook area. ...Thompson/Lyons.. 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.
