Severe thunderstorms are not expected through tonight. ....Synopsis... A cool, dry continental air mass remains in place across much of the CONUS, and will limit the potential for thunderstorms with the exception of a few regions. Over the lower Great Lakes, warm lake water temperatures coupled with cold temperatures aloft associated with an upper low will support sufficient buoyancy for a few lightning strikes. Steep lapse rates over the Southwest combined with a modest influx of low to mid-level moisture will support isolated to scattered terrain-driven thunderstorms. Given inverted-V thermodynamic profiles in the lowest 2-3 km, a few strong wind gusts are possible. Across the southern FL Panhandle, weak forcing for ascent along a southward-migrating cold front within a weakly capped environment should support isolated thunderstorms by mid/late afternoon. 30-40 knot mid-level flow may support transient storm organization, but confidence in storm coverage and residence time over land is fairly low and precludes introducing any severe probabilities. ...Moore/Hart.. 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.
