Isolated strong storms may occur over far southern Florida and the Keys today into Wednesday morning, and from southeast Montana to the Black Hills. ....Synopsis and Discussion... A slow-moving cold front continues to push southward across central FL. This front is expected to continue southward throughout the day, progressing through South FL and offshore by this evening. Isolated showers and thunderstorms are anticipated in the vicinity of this boundary, but poor lapse rates and weak shear should mitigate overall storm strength. A positively tilted shortwave trough is expected to track eastward across the Gulf today, reaching the FL Peninsula by early Wednesday morning. A post-frontal airmass will exist across the peninsula whenever this shortwave arrives, which will keep thunderstorm chances over land very low. Farther north and west, a shortwave trough is forecast to move from the northern Rockies into the southern Canadian Prairies, while moderate mid-level flow expands eastward from the Pacific Northwest into the northern High Plains. Some high-based convection is possible during the afternoon and evening from southeast MT/northern WY into the Black Hills as modest large-scale ascent occurs over regions that have destabilized amid boundary-layer heating. Weak buoyancy should temper overall updraft strength, but a few gusty downdrafts are possible. ...Mosier/Kerr.. 04/08/2025 $$ = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
