Initially amplified mid-level troughing near the Atlantic Seaboard is forecast to shift offshore and lose amplitude across the western Atlantic during the middle to latter portion of the coming work week. In its wake, medium-range guidance indicates at least a couple of significant short wave perturbations will emerge from a somewhat more progressive regime across the mid-latitude latitude Pacific. It still appears that the lead perturbation may provide support for strong surface cyclogenesis to the lee of the Canadian and northern U.S. Rockies during the latter portion of this week. While there is variance among the models concerning early evolution south of the international border, primary cyclone development is appearing most probable across the Canadian Prairies into higher latitudes of interior Canada. As this occurs, a trailing cold front may overtake modestly deep surface troughing across the northern into central U.S. Great Plains Thursday into Friday. This could become a focus for a corridor of increasing thunderstorm development. However, it still appears that rather modest to weak low-level moisture return, in the wake of a prior cool/dry intrusion as far south as the northern Gulf of Mexico, will tend to limit destabilization and minimize the risk for severe storms. Models indicate that the second impulse, quickly progressing inland behind the lead wave, will tend to split off toward the southern mid-latitudes. However, the differences between the ECENS/ECMWF and GEFS/GFS remain quite large concerning the amplification and progressiveness of this perturbation across the central/southern U.S. late this week into next weekend. Even so, with low-level moisture return off the Gulf of Mexico initially limited, and then perhaps impeded by the progression of the lead system, it is not clear whether these differences will have much impact on the overall convective potential. ...Kerr.. 10/13/2024 = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
