Subj : DAY1SVR: Day 1 Convective Outlook To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Fri Dec 20 2024 16:11:57 ACUS01 KWNS 201611 SWODY1 SPC AC 201610 Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1010 AM CST Fri Dec 20 2024 Valid 201630Z - 211200Z ....NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST... ....SUMMARY... Severe weather is not forecast across the contiguous United States through tonight. ....Synopsis... Shortwave trough currently moving through the Mid MS Valley is expected to continue cyclonically through the base of the mean upper troughing over eastern North America, which takes it off the Mid-Atlantic Coast late tonight. Another shortwave trough is expected in its wake over the Great Lakes this afternoon through tonight, while yet another shortwave trough drops southeastward through the northern Plains. This evolution will help maintain mean troughing across the central and eastern CONUS, with cold and stable low levels precluding thunderstorm development. Farther west, upper ridging will persist another much of the western CONUS. Some dampening is anticipated within the northwestern periphery of is ridging as a pair of shortwave troughs rotate around an upper low over the northwestern Pacific Ocean. Frontal band associated with the second of these waves should reach the northern CA coast early Saturday morning. Cold mid-level temperatures and related steep mid-level lapse rates may result in enough buoyancy for a few lightning flashes within this band. ...Mosier/Moore.. 12/20/2024 $$ = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
