Subj : DAY2SVR: Nws Storm Prediction Center Norman Ok To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Sun Dec 17 2023 17:16:15 ACUS02 KWNS 171716 SWODY2 SPC AC 171714 Day 2 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1114 AM CST Sun Dec 17 2023 Valid 181200Z - 191200Z ....THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM NEW JERSEY INTO SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND... ....SUMMARY... A few damaging gusts are possible from the eastern shore of New Jersey into southern New England Monday morning. A few isolated lightning flashes are possible along the northern/central California coast. ....Northeast... A strong coastal low, oriented near NJ/DE Monday morning, will continue to modestly deepen as it lifts north/northeast through the period. Very strong deep-layer south/southeasterly flow ahead of the low and the associated shortwave trough will be oriented over the offshore waters and overspreading New England. While this will allow for 50s F dewpoints to spread across parts of southern New England, very moist and warm low/midlevel thermodynamic profiles are forecast. Widespread showers and cloud cover will preclude much heating, and low/midlevel lapse rates will remain poor. As a result, instability will remain meager. Nevertheless, strong ascent may be sufficient for a few lightning flashes and perhaps a stronger convective element or two moving onshore from the New Jersey to southern New England coast. With forecast winds in the 925-850 mb layer well over 50 kt, strong/damaging gusts are possible despite the overall poor thermodynamic environment. ....Northern/Central CA... A shortwave trough will move onshore during the afternoon and into the nighttime hours on Monday. Cool temperatures aloft and strong large-scale ascent may be sufficient for a few lightning flashes through the afternoon hours. ...Leitman.. 12/17/2023 $$ = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
