Subj : DAY1SVR: Day 1 Convective Outlook To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Sun Feb 09 2025 05:36:15 ACUS01 KWNS 090536 SWODY1 SPC AC 090534 Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1134 PM CST Sat Feb 08 2025 Valid 091200Z - 101200Z ....NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST... ....SUMMARY... A low risk for a few thunderstorms exists early in the period across the Mid-South region. ....Mid-South Region... Negligible height changes will be noted across lower latitudes today as stronger westerly flow is expected across the Ohio Valley/middle Atlantic region. This flow regime has allowed significant continental air mass to settle into the middle of the country, forcing a cold front to extend across the Carolinas-central Gulf States-central TX early in the period. Latest water-vapor imagery suggests a very weak disturbance is lifting northeast across southwest TX, and this may encourage somewhat stronger flow at 850mb by daybreak from northeast TX into southern AR. Forecast NAM soundings for this region exhibit adequate MUCAPE (in excess of 500 J/kg) if lifting parcels around 1-2km. While large-scale ascent should prove minimal, weak low-level warm advection, and moist uninhibited parcels, suggest isolated convection may evolve along a corridor from southeast OK/northeast TX into southern AR early in the period. This activity will spread east toward northern MS, then weaken as it encounters less favorable environment for deep updrafts. Even so, overall thunder probabilities are generally expected to remain around 10 percent. ...Darrow/Marsh.. 02/09/2025 $$ = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
