Subj : DAY2SVR: Nws Storm Prediction Center Norman Ok To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Sat Feb 24 2024 17:24:13 ACUS02 KWNS 241724 SWODY2 SPC AC 241722 Day 2 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1122 AM CST Sat Feb 24 2024 Valid 251200Z - 261200Z ....NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST... ....SUMMARY... Isolated thunderstorms may occur Sunday night across parts of coastal/northwest Washington. ....Synopsis and Discussion... Thunderstorm potential is expected to remain quite low Sunday across a large majority of the CONUS, with one or two possible exceptions. An upper trough, with associated mid/upper-level jet, is forecast to gradually amplify over British Columbia and the Pacific Northwest through the period. Mid-level temperatures should gradually cool while lapse rates aloft steepen as this amplification occurs. Low-topped convection may eventually develop offshore Sunday night and spread across parts of coastal/northwest WA. Latest NAM/RAP forecast soundings suggest some chance for updrafts to extend deep enough to support charge separation and occasional lightning flashes. A lightning flash or two also cannot be ruled out across parts of northern CA through the day as weak MUCAPE develops with diurnal heating. But with weak forcing aloft, overall thunderstorm coverage across this area should remain below 10%. ...Gleason.. 02/24/2024 $$ = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
