Subj : DAY1SVR: Day 1 Convective Outlook To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Thu Oct 17 2024 19:37:58 ACUS01 KWNS 171937 SWODY1 SPC AC 171936 Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0236 PM CDT Thu Oct 17 2024 Valid 172000Z - 181200Z ....NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST... ....SUMMARY... Organized severe thunderstorms are not expected through tonight. ....20z Update... The previous outlook remains valid with no changes. Scattered thunderstorms are possible across the Great Basin and Rockies ahead of a deep upper trough and cold front this afternoon through tonight. An isolated stronger storm may be capable of strong outflow wind gusts, but organized severe storms are not expected. See the prior outlook for additional information. ...Lyons.. 10/17/2024 ..PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 1110 AM CDT Thu Oct 17 2024/ ....Western States... A large upper trough will dig southeastward across the mountainous west today and tonight. This will provide increasing large-scale ascent and increasing mid-level moisture for scattered showers and thunderstorms across much of the Rockies and Great Basin. Visible satellite imagery shows widespread high clouds over much of this area, which should limit daytime heating and destabilization. Strengthening winds aloft could pose a risk for gusty winds in the strongest cells this afternoon, but the risk of severe storms appears low. $$ = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
