Subj : DAY1SVR: Day 1 Convective Outlook To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Fri Oct 11 2024 05:25:17 ACUS01 KWNS 110525 SWODY1 SPC AC 110523 Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1223 AM CDT Fri Oct 11 2024 Valid 111200Z - 121200Z ....NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST... ....SUMMARY... Severe thunderstorm potential will remain low today. ....Synopsis... Weak flow aloft will prevail today over the southern half of the U.S., while a belt of fast west-northwesterlies extends from the northern Intermountain region to the Northeast. Within this fast belt of flow, a short-wave trough moving quickly southeastward across central Canada will brush the Great Lakes region. Accompanying this feature, a surface cold front will move quickly across the Upper Great Lakes through the first half of the period, and then across the Lower Lakes and Northeast overnight. The trailing portion of this front will become oriented roughly west-to-east with time across the central Plains and Midwest, through Saturday morning. ....Northern Lower Michigan... Isolated showers and a thunderstorm or two will be possible across the northern Lower Michigan vicinity near peak heating, along the fast-moving cold front, where steep mid-level lapse rates should contribute to modest CAPE. The deep-layer wind field -- increasing in intensity and slightly veering with height -- would support organized/severe storms in a more favorable thermodynamic environment. However, given weak CAPE, and a dry -- and likely to be slightly stable -- boundary layer, any gusty outflow winds should remain very local, and likely to remain below severe levels. Convection should weaken quickly through sunset. ...Goss/Halbert.. 10/11/2024 $$ = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
