Subj : DAY1SVR: Day 1 Convective Outlook To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Mon Dec 23 2024 19:39:20 ACUS01 KWNS 231938 SWODY1 SPC AC 231936 Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0136 PM CST Mon Dec 23 2024 Valid 232000Z - 241200Z ....NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST... ....SUMMARY... Severe thunderstorms are not forecast through tonight across the contiguous United States. Only minor changes have been made to the ongoing thunderstorm forecast for the southern Plains, based on recent CAM guidance. Please see previous discussion for more details. ...Hart.. 12/23/2024 ..PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 1017 AM CST Mon Dec 23 2024/ ....Synopsis... A modifying air mass is returning northward into TX from the western Gulf basin, and continued low-level warming/moistening will result in gradual destabilization. Modest amplification of a midlevel trough over the southern High Plains, in combination with an increasingly moist warm advection regime, will support the potential for a few elevated thunderstorms this evening into tonight across parts of OK/north TX. There is also a small chance for near-surface-based thunderstorms along a confluence zone from Matagorda Bay northward into the western parts of southeast TX. Otherwise, a midlevel trough over the eastern Pacific will approach northern CA late in the period, when weak destabilization could support sufficiently deep convection for isolated lightning flashes. Farther east, the potential for deep convection will increase through the period in association with air mass modification and weak cyclogenesis in the vicinity of the Gulf Stream. However, the potential for thunderstorms is expected to remain offshore. $$ = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
