Subj : DAY1SVR: Day 1 Convective Outlook To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Sun Oct 08 2023 04:48:38 ACUS01 KWNS 080448 SWODY1 SPC AC 080447 Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1147 PM CDT Sat Oct 07 2023 Valid 081200Z - 091200Z ....NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST... ....SUMMARY... Severe thunderstorms are not forecast. ....Discussion... Large-scale pattern will change little through the day1 period as upper troughing holds across the eastern US with ridging over the Rockies. This flow regime will result in offshore flow across all but the extreme southern tip of FL, east of the Rockies. Cold air spreading across the lower Great Lakes should continue to prove favorable for some lake effect downstream of lakes Erie and Ontario where a few flashes of lightning can not be ruled out in the deeper updrafts. Isolated thunderstorms are also possible near the surface front over south FL. The greatest concentration of convection will likely be noted over the higher elevations of northern/eastern AZ beneath the upper ridge. NAM forecast sounding for FLG at 21z exhibits steep lapse rates through 6km with ample buoyancy for deep convection capable of generating lightning. Low PW values and weak shear are not favorable for large hail/wind. ...Darrow/Weinman.. 10/08/2023 $$ = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
