Subj : DAY2SVR: Nws Storm Prediction Center Norman Ok To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Fri Feb 16 2024 17:02:28 ACUS02 KWNS 161702 SWODY2 SPC AC 161700 Day 2 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1100 AM CST Fri Feb 16 2024 Valid 171200Z - 181200Z ....NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST... ....SUMMARY... Severe thunderstorms are not forecast on Saturday. ....Synopsis and Discussion... Thunderstorm potential should remain low across most of the CONUS on Saturday as surface high pressure dominates east of the Rockies, with two possible exceptions. A front should extend over parts of the central/southern FL Peninsula Saturday afternoon. A moist low-level airmass and diurnal heating should contribute to weak instability along and south of this boundary, even though poor mid-level lapse rates and seasonably warm temperatures aloft will likely limit the development of greater buoyancy. Isolated lightning flashes appear possible with any weak convection that can develop in the vicinity of the front, although low-level convergence along this boundary is expected to remain modest at best. Occasional lightning may also occur with low-topped thunderstorms over parts of coastal northern CA as a shortwave trough moves eastward across this area Saturday afternoon and evening in tandem with cold mid-level temperatures and steepened mid-level lapse rates. ...Gleason.. 02/16/2024 $$ = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
