Severe weather potential is expected to increase by the middle of next week. As the upper trough ejects into the southern/central Plains, moisture that is expected to remain just off the Gulf coast will advect northward Tuesday/Wednesday. At least isolated severe storms could occur from the Sabine Valley into portions of the Lower Mississippi Valley on Wednesday. Early-day precipitation, stronger forcing displaced to the north, and upper-level winds roughly parallel to the surface boundary reduce confidence in more widespread severe storms. On Thursday, the front will push into the Southeast. Upper-level flow will remain strong over the region, but the mid-level ascent and surface cyclone will move farther north and the warm sector will likely be narrow. By late next week, the cold front is forecast to stall near the Gulf Coast. Another slightly more amplified upper trough will move eastward into the weekend. Depending on the degree of cold air intrusion into the Gulf Thursday/Friday and the strength of the trough/surface cyclone, more robust moisture return will be possible during the weekend. Uncertainty remains high at this juncture as models have not been overly consistent with this signal in the past 1-2 days of runs. Trends will continue to be monitored. ...Wendt.. 02/08/2025 = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
