Subj : DAY1SVR: Day 1 Convective Outlook To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Sat Oct 26 2024 12:46:17 ACUS01 KWNS 261246 SWODY1 SPC AC 261244 Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0744 AM CDT Sat Oct 26 2024 Valid 261300Z - 271200Z ....NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST... ....SUMMARY... Severe thunderstorms are not expected today. ....Discussion... A progressive and semi-amplified large-scale pattern will persist, with mean upper ridging over the Rockies/High Plains and broad troughing over the eastern CONUS. This flow regime ensures richer moisture/instability will remain suppressed across lower latitudes as northwesterly flow aloft dominates much of the country east of the Rockies. A surface cold front will continue to settle south-southeastward today across the southern Appalachians, Lower Mississippi Valley and ArkLaTex. Boundary-layer heating will be prominent especially within a corridor from the southern Arklatex to northern Alabama and South Carolina. Forecast soundings suggest some potential for lightning discharge in the deepest updrafts, although lightning-producing convection is expected to remain rather sparse, and mainly during the afternoon through early evening hours. ...Guyer/Leitman.. 10/26/2024 $$ = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
