Subj : DAY48SVR: Nws Storm Prediction Center Norman Ok To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Fri Jan 24 2025 10:01:06 ACUS48 KWNS 241001 SWOD48 SPC AC 240959 Day 4-8 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0359 AM CST Fri Jan 24 2025 Valid 271200Z - 011200Z ....DISCUSSION... On Monday/Day 4, a shortwave ridge is forecast over the south-central U.S. The overall pattern is forecast to gradually amplify on Tuesday/Day 5 and Wednesday/Day 6, as a mid-level low moves slowly eastward across the Desert Southwest. Ahead of the system, moisture return is expected across the southern Plains in the early to mid week, as mid-level flow becomes southwesterly. A moist airmass is forecast to become established across the southern Plains by Wednesday, with scattered thunderstorms likely to develop in the afternoon and evening across parts of Texas and Oklahoma. The potential for convective development is expected to continue into Thursday/Day 7 and Thursday night as the mid-level system approaches and moves into the southern Plains. At this time, model forecasts suggest that instability, lift and deep-layer shear could support an isolated severe threat in parts of Texas and possibly southern Oklahoma, from Wednesday evening into Thursday. However, there is still substantial variance among solutions concerning this system, and confidence is low concerning magnitude and spacing. At this time, it appears the overall severe threat will remain marginal. On Friday/Day 8, the potential for convection is forecast to move eastward into parts of the Southeast, where little instability is forecast. ...Broyles.. 01/24/2025 = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
