Subj : DAY3SVR: Nws Storm Prediction Center Norman Ok To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Thu Oct 12 2023 07:31:33 ACUS03 KWNS 120731 SWODY3 SPC AC 120730 Day 3 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0230 AM CDT Thu Oct 12 2023 Valid 141200Z - 151200Z ....THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF THE EASTERN CAROLINAS... ....SUMMARY... Isolated severe thunderstorms appear possible Saturday across parts of the eastern Carolinas. ....Eastern Carolinas... An upper trough with strong westerly mid-level flow will move eastward across the OH/TN Valleys and Carolinas on Saturday. Primary surface low over the OH Valley Saturday morning should advance towards the central Appalachians through the day, while a secondary surface low along/near the SC Coast moves northeastward across coastal NC by Saturday evening. Rich low-level moisture will attempt to advect inland ahead of this low across coastal portions of the Carolinas. There are still some differences in model guidance regarding both the surface low strength/track, and the inland extent of low-level moisture. Still, strong deep-layer shear will foster convective organization with any thunderstorms that can be sustained over land, with isolated strong to damaging winds possible. Sufficient low-level shear may also exist to support updraft rotation and perhaps some threat for a tornado. Given the uncertainties previously mentioned, have included a Marginal Risk across parts of eastern NC/SC. ....Central Appalachians/Mid-Atlantic... Low-level moisture ahead of the primary surface low and attendant cold front should remain fairly limited Saturday. Poor lapse rates are also forecast to hinder instability even as modest diurnal heating occurs. While enhanced low/mid-level flow associated with the eastward-moving upper trough should be present over the central Appalachians into the Mid-Atlantic, the limited instability is expected to temper the threat for robust convection capable of producing damaging winds. Therefore, no severe probabilities have been included across these areas at this time. ...Gleason.. 10/12/2023 $$ = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
