Severe weather is not expected across the U.S. Wednesday. ....Synopsis... Low-amplitude flow aloft is forecast to persist across the U.S. Wednesday, while a short-wave trough initially over the Colorado vicinity progresses east-northeastward into/across the Midwest/Ohio Valley area. At the surface, a very weak surface wave -- along the persistent west-to-east baroclinic zone extending eastward from the southern Plains across the Tennessee Valley area -- is forecast to move eastward along the boundary with time. Some minor northward wobble of the boundary may occur ahead of the low, but little overall frontal progression is expected through the period. ....Midwest/Ohio Valley/central Appalachians... As the aforementioned, weak surface wave moves east-northeastward, ahead of the associated upper disturbance, low-level southerly flow across the eastern U.S. will result in isentropic ascent of higher theta-e air atop the persistent surface baroclinic zone. As DPVA spreads eastward, the increase in quasigeostropic ascent combined with weak/elevated destabilization will result in development of showers and scattered thunderstorms. Most of the convection is expected to evolve during the second half of the period, spreading into the central Appalachians overnight. At this time, it appears that weak lapse rates will offset the increase in low-level theta-e advection, resulting in only minimal elevated CAPE atop the strongly stable boundary layer. Though shear will be plenty sufficient to otherwise support organized storms, the lack likelihood for any surface-based risk, and insufficient elevated instability to support large hail, suggests that severe risk will be minimal through the period. ...Goss.. 02/03/2025 $$ = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
