Subj : DAY48SVR: Nws Storm Prediction Center Norman Ok To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Mon Feb 26 2024 08:48:57 ACUS48 KWNS 260848 SWOD48 SPC AC 260847 Day 4-8 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0247 AM CST Mon Feb 26 2024 Valid 291200Z - 051200Z ....DISCUSSION... Severe potential will generally be low through Day 6/Sat. A weak upper shortwave trough will move from the southern Plains through the Southeast Days 4-5/Thu-Fri. However, boundary-layer moisture will remain limited by initially strong surface high pressure behind a cold frontal passage in the Day 3/Wed period. On Day 6/Sat, an upper trough is forecast to dig across the western U.S., emerging into the Plains on Day 7/Sun. As this occurs, southerly low-level flow will develop over the Gulf of Mexico into the Plains in response to a deepening lee cyclone. Low-level moisture will increase across parts of the southern Plains into the Mid-MS Valley through Day 8/Mon as a cold front sweeps eastward. Some increase in severe potential could accompany this system Days 7-8/Sun-Mon from the southern Plains toward the MS Valley. However, uncertainty remains regarding northward extent of quality moisture, and in timing of both surface and upper level features. While confidence currently is too low to include probabilities, they may become necessary in subsequent outlooks. ...Leitman.. 02/26/2024 = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
