Strong to severe thunderstorms are possible across portions of the northern Plains vicinity on Saturday. ....Northern Plains... An upper low will be centered over northern Saskatchewan/Manitoba on Saturday, with the associated northern stream upper trough extending southwest from the upper low into MT. The northern stream trough will develop east across the Canadian Prairies, clipping the northern Plains. Meanwhile, another convectively enhanced shortwave impulse embedded in westerly flow will migrate eastward across WY into the SD/NE vicinity. At the surface, a cold front is forecast to shift southeast across the northern Plains during the evening/overnight hours. Ahead of the front, south/southeasterly low-level flow will aid in northeastward transport of richer boundary layer moisture. Convection will likely develop ahead of the cold front in ND during the evening and into the overnight hours. Additional thunderstorm clusters related to the shortwave impulse emanating out of WY are expected by late afternoon/early evening. Aided by 30-40 kt southerly low-level jet, this activity may also form upscale into an eastward propagating MCS across parts of SD/NE. At least isolated severe thunderstorms appear possible given favorable thermodynamic profiles and effective shear magnitudes greater than 30 kt. Timing of shortwave trough ejection and surface cold front position, as well as questions regarding a recovering airmass in the wake of an early day exiting shortwave trough still lend to plenty of uncertainty for the Day 3/Saturday period. However, greater severe probabilities may be needed in subsequent outlooks as these finer scale details become better resolved in the coming days. ...Leitman.. 07/25/2024 $$ = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
