Subj : DAY1SVR: Day 1 Convective Outlook To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Sun Dec 22 2024 20:00:46 ACUS01 KWNS 222000 SWODY1 SPC AC 221959 Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0159 PM CST Sun Dec 22 2024 Valid 222000Z - 231200Z ....NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST... ....SUMMARY... Severe thunderstorms are not forecast across the contiguous United States through tonight. ....20Z Update... Lightning flashes continue to be observed just offshore of the northern CA coastline as a mid-level trough approaches the Pacific Northwest. As the mid-level trough continues to advance toward the coastline later this afternoon and evening, increased mid-level cooling aloft will encourage at least isolated onshore thunderstorm development. As such, no changes have been made to the previous forecast. ...Squitieri.. 12/22/2024 ..PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 1003 AM CST Sun Dec 22 2024/ ....Northern CA/Pacific Northwest coast through tonight... Lightning flashes have been observed this morning within a baroclinic band roughly 150 mi off the northern CA coast, in association with a midlevel shortwave trough that will move inland later today into tonight. The potential for isolated lightning flashes inland will begin this afternoon with elevated convection in the warm conveyor belt across northwest CA/southwest OR. Other isolated lightning flashes may also occur this evening into early tonight along the WA coast as steeper low-midlevel lapse rates and weak buoyancy spread inland. $$ = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
