Subj : DAY1SVR: Day 1 Convective Outlook To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Fri Feb 14 2025 05:43:28 ACUS01 KWNS 140543 SWODY1 SPC AC 140541 Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1141 PM CST Thu Feb 13 2025 Valid 141200Z - 151200Z ....NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST... ....SUMMARY... Severe thunderstorms are unlikely today and tonight. ....Synopsis... A progressive longwave pattern will be highlighted by an amplifying upper trough over the Great Basin/Southwest Deserts to the southern Rockies, with lee cyclogenesis occurring across the central and southern High Plains. A few thunderstorms may occur mainly this afternoon across parts of the Great Basin to Four Corners, while thunderstorms are expected to increase tonight across the Ozarks/Mid-South to Tennessee Valley and Lower Ohio Valley. ....Ozarks/Mid-South... Initial height falls and cyclonically influenced westerlies will reach the region late tonight, with a substantially increasing and east/southeastward-shunting low-level jet and related robust elevated moisture transport. Parcels should gradually reach their LFC with scattered elevated convection (generally based 800-900mb) becoming increasingly capable of lightning overnight. MUCAPE could reach 750+ J/kg coincident with a long/semi-straight hodograph in the cloud-bearing layer. However, mid-level lapse rates will not be overly robust with relatively tall/thin elevated buoyancy. While some hail could occur early Saturday morning (9z-12z/3-6am CST) in areas spanning northern/eastern Arkansas to western Tennessee, current expectations are for hail magnitudes to generally remain below severe thresholds given the marginal thermodynamic environment. The overall severe hail potential is currently expected to remain below 5 percent. ...Guyer/Thornton.. 02/14/2025 $$ = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
