Marginally severe thunderstorms will be possible on Saturday across parts of the Northeast, southern and central Plains, and northern Rockies. ....Northeast... Southwesterly mid-level flow will be in place across parts of the Northeast on Saturday, with a southwest-to-northeast quasi-stationary front located across the region. An axis of instability is forecast to develop just to the southeast of the front by midday. Scattered thunderstorms, with several small clusters or short line segments, appear likely to form near the front. The instability combined with surface dewpoints in the lower 70s F could be enough for marginally severe wet downbursts with the stronger multicells during the mid to late afternoon. ....Middle to Upper Texas Coastal Plain/Far Southwest Louisiana... North-northwesterly mid-level flow will be located across much of the southern Plains on Saturday. At the surface, a front is forecast to move southward through central and east Texas, with a pocket of moderate instability developing to the south of the front by midday. The models suggest that isolated to scattered thunderstorms will be possible during the mid to late afternoon. Forecast soundings at 21Z on Saturday in southeast Texas suggest that low-level lapse rates will become steep, and that moderate deep-layer shear will be in place. This may be enough for a marginal wind-damage threat with the stronger multicells. ....Southern High Plains/Central Plains... A mid-level anticyclone will remain over the Desert Southwest on Friday. To the northeast of the anticyclone in parts of the southern High Plains and central Plains, flow will be anticyclonic and from the northwest. A axis of moderate instability is forecast to develop by afternoon from the Texas Panhandle extending north-northeastward into central Nebraska. In spite of weak large-scale ascent, isolated storms may initiate along and near this axis of instability during the late afternoon and early evening. The instability combined with moderate deep-layer shear could support a threat for hail and strong gusts. ....Northern Rockies... An upper-level ridge is forecast to build over parts of the Intermountain West on Saturday, as mid-level flow remains mostly from the west-northwest across the northern Rockies and northern High Plains. A narrow corridor of instability will likely develop across north-central Wyoming and southwest Montana by afternoon, with isolated thunderstorms forming near the instability axis. Convective coverage is expected to remain isolated due to a lack of large-scale ascent. However, the instability combined with steep mid-level lapse rates could be enough for strong gusts and hail, associated with multicells in the late afternoon and early evening. ...Broyles.. 09/07/2023 $$ = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
