Subj : DAY1SVR: Day 1 Convective Outlook To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Sun Dec 24 2023 19:48:02 ACUS01 KWNS 241947 SWODY1 SPC AC 241946 Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0146 PM CST Sun Dec 24 2023 Valid 242000Z - 251200Z ....THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER PARTS OF THE CENTRAL GULF COAST... ....SUMMARY... A brief tornado and localized severe gusts are possible over parts of the central Gulf Coast later this evening into the early morning. ....Central Gulf Coast... Midday guidance along with the 12Z ECMWF suggest potential for weak cyclogenesis near the central Gulf Coast tonight, as a shortwave impulse over TX moves east to the Lower MS Valley before pivoting northeast tomorrow morning. With mid 60s surface dew points already established across the north-central Gulf and far southeast LA, it is plausible that weak surface-based instability will at least brush the central Gulf Coast later tonight. This should become coincident with the trailing portion of a strengthening low-level jet across the Deep South. While deep convection ongoing over the northwest Gulf should largely translate east across the north-central Gulf, this setup may support an embedded supercell or two impinging on/developing over a portion of the central Gulf Coast States. ...Grams.. 12/24/2023 ..PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 1021 AM CST Sun Dec 24 2023/ ....East TX/LA... A negatively tilted upper trough is moving across the Southern Plains into the Gulf Coast region during this forecast period. Scattered showers and thunderstorms will occur ahead of the trough, from TX into AL and the FL panhandle. Surface trajectories will limit the influx of Gulf moisture northward/inland today, making surface-based thunderstorm development unlikely. A strong storm or two might occur from the upper TX gulf coast to coastal LA this afternoon, but any severe activity is expected to remain offshore. $$ = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
