Medium-range guidance is in relatively good agreement that significant amplification of the upper pattern will take place next week as a strong and deep upper trough traverses the CONUS. The initial development of this upper trough is forecast to begin on D4/Monday as a shortwave trough moves through the Great Basin into the Southwest while another moves from the Upper Midwest across the Upper Great Lakes and Ontario. By early D5/Tuesday, evolution of these systems will have likely resulted in broad and deep upper troughing across much of the central North America. This trough is then expected to continue eastward as a shortwave trough progresses through its base, helping to sharpen the trough and strengthening mid-level flow. Consensus within the guidance places a 120 kt 500 mb jet streak from AL through the central Appalachians on D6/Wednesday. The embedded shortwave is forecast to continue quickly eastward/northeastward across the Southeast and Mid-Atlantic on D6/Wednesday, helping to induce a more negative tilt to the parent upper troughing. A strong cold front will likely accompany this system, progressing eastward through the Plains on D4/Monday, the MS and OH Valleys and Southeast on D5/Tuesday, and off the East Coast on D6/Wednesday. Favorable low-level moisture may be in place ahead of this front across the Southeast on D5/Tuesday. However, a front-parallel orientation of the deep-layer shear is anticipated, and buoyancy will likely remain modest, limiting severe potential. Favorable low-level moisture may exist ahead of the front across the Mid-Atlantic on D6/Wednesday as well, with strengthening deep-layer vertical shear and large-scale ascent anticipated across the region as well. As a result, some severe appears possible, but uncertainty regarding frontal position limits predictability. ...Mosier.. 12/06/2024 = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
