Subj : DAY48SVR: Nws Storm Prediction Center Norman Ok To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Tue Sep 26 2023 08:45:17 ACUS48 KWNS 260845 SWOD48 SPC AC 260843 Day 4-8 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0343 AM CDT Tue Sep 26 2023 Valid 291200Z - 041200Z ....DISCUSSION... For most of the day 4-8 period, an upper trough is forecast to affect much of the western CONUS, making little progress eastward as the trough becomes a large cut-off low over the Great Basin, and an upper high remains over the lower MO/mid MS Valley region. A surface high from the Midwest into the Northeast will be a primary mitigating factor for severe weather potential, as moisture return across the plains will be minimal as a result. Pockets of strong instability > 1000-1500 J/kg are forecast to exist primarily over the northern Plains/Upper MS Valley, well ahead of the western trough. While scattered thunderstorms will be possible from parts of MT eastward across parts of the Dakotas and MN from Friday through at least Sunday, neither instability nor shear would appear to favor any widespread severe potential, although isolated hail or wind reports may occur during this time frame. ...Jewell.. 09/26/2023 = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
