Severe thunderstorms are not expected on Saturday. ....Synopsis... A mid/upper-level shortwave trough is forecast to move across WA/OR/northern CA during the day on Saturday, and eventually approach the northern Rockies region by early Sunday morning. Very modest buoyancy (with pockets of MUCAPE around 100 J/kg) and ascent attendant to the shortwave will support convection with potential for sporadic lightning flashes and locally gusty winds across coastal regions of northern CA and OR. At this time, the greatest relative potential for any lightning activity is expected early in the forecast period, though shallow convective showers may persist through much of the day in the wake of the departing shortwave. Across the central/eastern CONUS, an expansive surface ridge will result in dry and stable conditions, with negligible thunderstorm potential. ...Dean.. 12/19/2024 $$ = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
