Subj : DAY2SVR: Nws Storm Prediction Center Norman Ok To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Fri Sep 15 2023 17:04:35 ACUS02 KWNS 151704 SWODY2 SPC AC 151702 Day 2 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1202 PM CDT Fri Sep 15 2023 Valid 161200Z - 171200Z ....THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PORTIONS OF EASTERN IOWA...NORTHERN MISSOURI AND NORTHWEST ILLINOIS... ....SUMMARY... A few strong to locally severe thunderstorms are possible Saturday afternoon across portions of eastern Iowa, northern Missouri and northwest Illinois. Hail near 1 inch diameter and a few strong gusts may accompany the strongest storms. ....Mid-Mississippi Valley Vicinity... An upper trough will develop eastward across the Upper Midwest/MS Valley on Saturday. Cool temperatures aloft (around -16 to -18 C at 500 mb) will contribute to modestly steep midlevel lapse rates atop surface dewpoints in the mid 50s to low 60s. This will support modest destabilization, with MLCAPE values around 500-750 J/kg forecast. Vertical shear will remain somewhat weak, around 20-25 kt. This should be sufficient for isolated organized cells/clusters near an east/southeast moving cold front during the afternoon. 12z forecast guidance (CAMs, HREF, etc) have trended a bit west, necessitating a westward expansion of the Marginal (level 1 of 5) risk across parts of northern MO and southeast IA. Convection should weaken with eastward extent during the evening (00-01z time frame). ...Leitman.. 09/15/2023 $$ = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
