Subj : DAY1SVR: Day 1 Convective Outlook To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Thu Feb 01 2024 05:19:28 ACUS01 KWNS 010519 SWODY1 SPC AC 010518 Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1118 PM CST Wed Jan 31 2024 Valid 011200Z - 021200Z ....NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST... ....SUMMARY... Severe thunderstorms are not expected. ....Discussion... High-level diffluent flow aloft will be noted across the southwestern US today as strong 500mb speed max translates toward the central Baja Peninsula as the southern stream becomes dominant. Large-scale ascent will encourage cooling/moistening profiles across much of CA into the southern Rockies as 60-120m 12hr height falls spread across this region. One notable surface front will move inland across CA by 02/00z before advancing into UT/AZ by the end of the period. Forecast soundings exhibit weak buoyancy across favored onshore regions of CA into the interior valleys, and orographic influences should also aid the prospect for deep convection across the Four Corners region. However, instability appears too weak to warrant any meaningful risk for organized/severe storms. ...Darrow/Wendt.. 02/01/2024 $$ = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
