Subj : DAY1SVR: Day 1 Convective Outlook To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Sat Nov 04 2023 16:16:13 ACUS01 KWNS 041616 SWODY1 SPC AC 041614 Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1114 AM CDT Sat Nov 04 2023 Valid 041630Z - 051200Z ....NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST... ....SUMMARY... Severe thunderstorms are not expected through tonight. ....Discussion... Sporadic lightning flashes have been focused this morning near the southwest OR coast where low-level convergence was maximized within the warm conveyor downstream of a large upper trough shifting northeast towards the BC coast. Convergence and large-scale ascent will gradually wane through the afternoon, yielding a diminishing thunder threat by evening along the coast. Farther inland, meager elevated buoyancy developing east of the Cascades within the warm conveyor may support very isolated thunderstorms across eastern OR and parts of western ID, mainly this evening into tonight. A limited spatiotemporal window will also exist for a few elevated thunderstorms amid scant buoyancy (MUCAPE near 100 J/kg) in the southeast KS/southwest MO vicinity this evening. Modest 850-700 mb warm theta-e advection beneath thermodynamic profiles barely adequate for charge separation will support this potential for a few hours. Relatively abrupt warming at and above 500 mb will occur with the passage of a mid-level shortwave trough moving southeast from the central Great Plains, curtailing the longevity of the low probability thunder threat. ...Grams/Wendt.. 11/04/2023 $$ = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
