Subj : DAY2SVR: Nws Storm Prediction Center Norman Ok To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Wed Oct 16 2024 16:46:13 ACUS02 KWNS 161646 SWODY2 SPC AC 161644 Day 2 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1144 AM CDT Wed Oct 16 2024 Valid 171200Z - 181200Z ....NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST... ....SUMMARY... The risk for severe thunderstorms appears negligible across the U.S. Thursday through Thursday night. ....Synopsis... An upper trough will deepen as it shifts east across the northern Rockies and Great Basin on Thursday. Meanwhile, an amplified upper ridge will envelop much of the CONUS east of the MS River as an upper low moves offshore the Mid-Atlantic coast. At the surface, strong high pressure beneath the upper ridge will be centered over the Ohio Valley. A prior cold frontal passage and north/northeasterly low-level flow will result in Gulf moisture remaining well offshore. A strong baroclinic zone will be oriented from the Upper Midwest toward the southern High Plains with surface low development expected across the Great Basin with the approach of the upper trough. Boundary-layer moisture will remain scant, but cooling aloft as the upper trough progresses eastward will support enough elevated instability such that isolated thunderstorms will be possible from the Pacific Northwest coast into the Great Basin and central/southern Rockies vicinity. Severe thunderstorms are not expected. ...Leitman.. 10/16/2024 $$ = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
