Subj : DAY48SVR: Nws Storm Prediction Center Norman Ok To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Wed Aug 21 2024 08:56:53 ACUS48 KWNS 210856 SWOD48 SPC AC 210855 Day 4-8 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0355 AM CDT Wed Aug 21 2024 Valid 241200Z - 291200Z ....DISCUSSION... ....Saturday/Day 4 to Monday/Day 6... Heights within an upper-level ridge are forecast to rise across the central and northern U.S over the weekend, as an upper-level trough moves across the western U.S. Isolated severe-thunderstorm development will be possible across the Dakotas in the afternoon and evening both Saturday and Sunday. The best chance for severe storms would be on Sunday as large-scale ascent and deep-layer shear both increase across the northern Plains due to the approach of the trough. The severe threat is forecast to shift eastward into the upper Mississippi Valley on Monday, as the upper-level trough and its associated cold front advance eastward from the northern Plains into the upper Mississippi Valley. ....Tuesday/Day 7 and Wednesday/Day 8... On Tuesday and Wednesday, the upper-level trough is forecast to deamplify as it moves through the Great Lakes region. Another upper-level trough is forecast to move through the western U.S on Tuesday and Wednesday. The best chance for severe storm development would be on Wednesday afternoon along an instability axis, most likely in either eastern parts of the northern Plains or in the upper Mississippi Valley. At this range, large model spread concerning the timing of the trough and distribution of instability suggests uncertainty is substantial. ...Broyles.. 08/21/2024 = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
