Potential for severe storms appears low on Saturday. ....Discussion... A strong mid-level short-wave trough within fast northern-stream flow over the northern U.S. will cross the northern Plains and eventually move into the Upper Great Lakes region Saturday. Accompanying this trough, a surface low will advance quickly across the Canadian Prairie while a trailing cold front shifts southeastward across the northern and eventually the central Plains, and the Upper Midwest region, through the period. Scattered showers and a few thunderstorms should again affect southeastern Atlantic and Gulf Coast areas, while showers and thunderstorms also evolve during the afternoon and evening across the Upper Mississippi Valley/Upper Great Lakes area. Here, modest low-level moisture but steepening mid-level lapse rates suggests that convection should remain largely elevated atop a weakly stable boundary layer. Still, with strong west-southwesterly flow through the lower half of the troposphere, a few stronger updrafts -- possibly capable of producing hail or even locally gusty winds -- may occur. At this time, any risk for severe-caliber events appears likely to remain low, and thus no hail/wind probabilities will be included at this time. ...Goss.. 10/03/2024 $$ = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
