Subj : DAY1SVR: Day 1 Convective Outlook To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Thu Oct 19 2023 16:27:03 ACUS01 KWNS 191626 SWODY1 SPC AC 191625 Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1125 AM CDT Thu Oct 19 2023 Valid 191630Z - 201200Z ....NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST... ....SUMMARY... Severe thunderstorms are not expected through tonight. ....Synopsis... A midlevel trough over the mid MS Valley this morning will continue east-southeastward over the TN/OH Valleys through tonight, downstream from a pronounced ridge over the western CONUS. In association with the midlevel trough, a surface cyclone will develop eastward from WI/Upper MI toward Lower MI, while a cold front moves southeastward into the Mid South and OH Valley. A modifying Gulf of Mexico air mass is spreading northeastward in advance of the cold front, though regional 12z soundings suggest that low-midlevel moisture and lapse rates will remain modest and will limit buoyancy. The relatively greater buoyancy (MLCAPE generally <500 J/kg) will be closer to the Ark-La-Miss, though this area will be behind the initial midlevel trough (moving over the area now). Overall, any potential for strong-severe storms this afternoon into early tonight is too low to warrant any outlook areas. Otherwise, isolated thunderstorms may approach eastern NC/Outer Banks late today into tonight, though the primary buoyancy with the modifying air mass will remain over the Gulf Stream. Isolated thunderstorms may also form close to extreme southeast FL and the Keys near a slowly weakening front across the FL Straits. ...Thompson/Lyons.. 10/19/2023 $$ = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
