Subj : DAY2SVR: Nws Storm Prediction Center Norman Ok To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Fri Mar 07 2025 06:24:24 ACUS02 KWNS 070624 SWODY2 SPC AC 070622 Day 2 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1222 AM CST Fri Mar 07 2025 Valid 081200Z - 091200Z ....THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM EAST TEXAS TO THE CENTRAL GULF COAST... ....SUMMARY... Isolated to widely scattered strong to severe thunderstorms may occur from portions of East Texas into the Central Gulf Coast region on Saturday. Large hail is the primary hazard with the strongest storms. ....East Texas to Central Gulf Coast Vicinity... An upper low and attendant trough over the Southwest Saturday morning will shift east toward the southeast Plains/Sabine Valley vicinity by Sunday morning. Fast southwesterly mid/upper flow will already be in place from the southern Plains to the Southeast, though a stronger jet streak will impinge on the Lower MS Valley late in the period as stronger height falls spread east ahead of the approaching upper trough. At the surface, a weak low over north-central TX will develop east near/just south of the I-20 corridor into southern AL through Sunday morning. A warm front will extend west to east along this corridor, and southerly low-level flow will support mid 60s F dewpoints south of this boundary. Convection will likely be ongoing or developing within the first couple hours of the forecast period Saturday morning across TX. Additional convection also is likely along the warm front near the central Gulf coast from LA to southern AL. Most convection is forecast to be elevated in this persistent warm advection regime. Steep midlevel lapse rates will support elevated instability, with forecast soundings indicating MUCAPE to 1500 J/kg possible. Furthermore, forecast hodographs are elongated/straight above 2-3 km amid 35+ kt effective shear magnitudes. This should result in organized cells capable of isolated large hail. If any storms can become surface-based near the warm front, some tornado potential will exist given vertically veering wind profiles/modestly enlarged low-level hodographs. ...Leitman.. 03/07/2025 $$ = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
