Subj : DAY1SVR: Day 1 Convective Outlook To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Fri Jan 19 2024 05:27:22 ACUS01 KWNS 190527 SWODY1 SPC AC 190525 Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1125 PM CST Thu Jan 18 2024 Valid 191200Z - 201200Z ....NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST... ....SUMMARY... A few thunderstorms may be noted across parts of south Florida and along the central California Coast. ....South Florida... Dominant upper trough, currently located over the Great Lakes/OH Valley, will gradually shift east as strongest 500mb flow rounds the base of the trough and off the middle Atlantic Coast during the latter half of the period. This evolution will encourage westerly flow to deepen across the FL Peninsula and a pronounced surface front will surge across the southern Peninsula during the evening. Weak buoyancy currently resides across the warm sector over the southern Peninsula. Forecast soundings suggest some risk for deep updrafts, although lapse rates will remain weak. Isolated thunderstorms may develop ahead of the primary cold front during the afternoon but this activity should remain too weak to warrant any meaningful risk for severe. ....California... Surface front is expected to surge toward the central/northern CA Coast after 20/00z ahead of a midlevel trough that should approach the Coast by 12z. Pronounced warm advection and weak elevated buoyancy will likely prove sufficient for pre frontal convection. Most of this activity is expected within the warm conveyor (likely rooted near/above 1km AGL) during the latter half of the period. Forecast soundings suggest the strongest updrafts may attain levels necessary for lightning discharge. ...Darrow/Thornton.. 01/19/2024 $$ = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
