The threat for organized severe thunderstorms currently appears low on Thursday. ....Synopsis... A mid-level trough will amplify across the Upper Midwest and Canadian Prairies on Thursday. Ahead of this trough, an elongated frontal zone will extend from northern Ontario, across the Great Lakes, across the central Plains, and into the southern High Plains. Moisture will remain somewhat meager along this frontal zone with storm coverage likely focused near the higher terrain in New Mexico and the better forcing in the western Great Lakes. ....Western Great Lakes... Strong height falls/cooling temperatures aloft should be sufficient to allow for some scattered storm development along the cold front in the western Great Lakes vicinity on Thursday afternoon/evening. However, despite the strong forcing, instability will be somewhat limited and thus, severe storms are unlikely. ....Northeast New Mexico... A southeastward moving mid-level shortwave trough will move toward northeast New Mexico and provide ample forcing for storms Thursday afternoon/evening. Instability will remain weak, but may be sufficient for a few stronger storms. If greater instability can develop, enough deep-layer shear will be present for some storm organization (~25 knots), but at this time, instability remains too weak for a Marginal risk. ...Bentley.. 09/03/2024 $$ = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
