Subj : DAY48SVR: Nws Storm Prediction Center Norman Ok To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Fri Feb 14 2025 08:52:58 ACUS48 KWNS 140852 SWOD48 SPC AC 140851 Day 4-8 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0251 AM CST Fri Feb 14 2025 Valid 171200Z - 221200Z ....DISCUSSION... Strong surface high pressure is forecast to extend from the northern Rockies/Plains through much of the Midwest on Day 4/Mon. A prior cold frontal passage into the Atlantic and Gulf waters will leave a dearth of boundary-layer moisture east of the Rockies. An upper trough will deepen on Day 5/Tue, moving from the Southwest and Great Basin to the Atlantic coast by Day 8/Fri. A weak surface low may develop across Texas on Day 5/Tue ahead of the upper trough, allowing some moisture return across southeast TX. Some thunderstorm activity is possible ahead of a strong Arctic cold front, but severe potential appears limited. The Arctic front will continue to progress eastward, moving offshore the Gulf coast by Day 7/Thu morning. A very cold and dry airmass in the wake of this system will preclude thunderstorm potential across the CONUS late in the forecast period. ...Leitman.. 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.
