Subj : DAY48SVR: Nws Storm Prediction Center Norman Ok To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Tue Dec 10 2024 09:58:33 ACUS48 KWNS 100958 SWOD48 SPC AC 100957 Day 4-8 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0357 AM CST Tue Dec 10 2024 Valid 131200Z - 181200Z ....DISCUSSION... Medium-range guidance is in good agreement that a shortwave trough will move from the central Rockies through the central Plains on D4/Friday. An associated surface low will take a similar track just ahead of the parent wave, with an attendant cold front pushing eastward across the southern/central Plains. Some modest moisture return will precede this front, and thunderstorms appear possible from east TX into the Lower MO Valley D4/Friday night into D5/Saturday morning. A few strong storms are possible, but overall buoyancy will likely remain modest due to warm mid-level temperatures, and the highest dewpoints are expected to remain displaced south of the better forcing. This shortwave and attendant cold front will likely continue eastward on into the MS Valley on D5/Saturday and through the remainder of the eastern CONUS on D6/Sunday. Thunderstorms are possible over portions of the Lower MS Valley and Mid-South on D5/Saturday and the Carolinas on D6/Sunday. Limited buoyancy should keep any severe-weather threat isolated. Another shortwave trough is expected to move across CA and the Great Basin on D6/Sunday and through the central Plains and Mid MS Valley on D7/Monday. Similar to the earlier shortwave, the strongest forcing for ascent with this shortwave is expected to remain displaced north of the better low-level moisture and buoyancy, likely tempering the overall severe potential. Even so, thunderstorms are possible, and greater moisture return (and buoyancy) is possible if the preceding cold front remains weak over the southern Plains. ...Mosier.. 12/10/2024 = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
