....DISCUSSION...
....Friday/Day 4 to Sunday/Day 6...
An upper-level trough is forecast to move slowly eastward from the
middle Ohio Valley on Friday into the central Appalachians on
Sunday. To the east of the trough, a moist and unstable airmass will
likely be in place from the eastern foothills of the Appalachians to
the Eastern Seaboard. Marginally severe thunderstorms will be
possible within this moist airmass each afternoon. The greatest
potential for strong storms appears to be in the central
Appalachians on Friday, and in the Carolinas/Mid-Atlantic on
Saturday and Sunday. Although pockets of moderate instability may
develop across this moist airmass each afternoon, deep-layer shear
is expected to remain relatively weak. For this reason, the severe
threat is expected to be isolated and marginal in most areas.

Further west, a cold front is forecast to move southward into parts
of the Ark-La-Tex and southern Plains on Friday. Moderate
instability may develop to the south of the front Friday afternoon,
along an east-to-west corridor of maximized low-level moisture. The
axis of instability is forecast to remain similarly located through
the weekend, suggesting that strong thunderstorms could develop from
parts of Oklahoma into western Kansas. However, the favored zone of
instability will likely remain narrow, and large-scale ascent should
be weak. This should keep any severe threat localized.

....Monday/Day 7 and Tuesday/Day 8...
On Monday and Tuesday, an upper-level trough is forecast to move
eastward from the Great Plains to the Mississippi Valley. An
associated cold front is forecast to move southward across the
central and southern Plains. As surface temperatures warm each day,
isolated to scattered thunderstorms could develop along and near
this front. Although forecast instability and deep-layer shear may
be enough for strong thunderstorms, confidence is low concerning the
magnitude and spatial extent of any severe potential.
