On Tuesday/D4, and upper trough will be located over the Rockies, with moderate south to southwest midlevel flow of 40-50 kt moving into the Plains. Models vary regarding the timing and location of embedded features, which decreases predictability. In addition, a relatively narrow moisture and instability plume is forecast at this time, and, areas of rain and thunderstorms are likely to be ongoing relatively early in the day. However, given ample deep-layer flow and sufficient instability, at least isolated to scattered strong to severe storms may affect parts of the area. By Wednesday/D5, low-level moisture will have increased substantially over the southern Plains, where moderate southwest flow will persist. Potential will exist for widespread thunderstorms, and this will have an impact on diurnal destabilization. Much of TX will likely see dewpoints above 70 F by this time, with this air mass possibly expanding north across OK. Given possible weakening of the upper trough, and decelerating cold front, heavy rain will be possible over these areas. See WPC Excessive Rainfall products for more information. Beyond this time frame, models indicate a possible large-scale upper trough amplification across the Great Lakes, with high pressure spreading south across much of the CONUS. ...Jewell.. 09/30/2023 = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
