On Thursday/D4, models are in good agreement depicting a shortwave trough strengthening as it moves into the southern Plains, with strong height falls over TX and a 70 kt midlevel jet. This wave is expected to pivot northeastward rapidly after 00Z, with height rises from the Rio Grande Valley to the ArkLaTex into Friday/D5 morning. Low pressure will likely develop over northern or central TX during the day, and will move with the parent trough toward the Ozarks overnight. Low-level southerly winds will aid moisture advection, with a warm front possibly into northeast TX and southern AR by evening. Predictability issues do exist due to numerous showers and thunderstorms likely to be ongoing throughout the period, focused east of I-35, which will reduce instability. However, large-scale ascent will be favorable and so will deep-layer shear, and it is not inconceivable that areas of severe storms could develop. The threat is conditional on access to the better instability plume over southern TX. Given these considerations, predictability is too low to introduce severe probabilities at this time. From Friday/D5 onward, the initial trough will lose amplitude quickly as it moves northeastward, becoming well removed from the instability plume. This will likely give way to a more generalized west/southwest flow regime over the Plains and MS Valley, as a possible large-scale trough amplification occurs over the West. The result may be scattered to numerous thunderstorms for several days from TX into the Southeast, with the overall regime characterized as that of warm advection and heavy rain. ...Jewell.. 11/27/2023 = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
