Subj : DAY48SVR: Nws Storm Prediction Center Norman Ok To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Mon Aug 11 2025 08:53:28 ACUS48 KWNS 110853 SWOD48 SPC AC 110852 Day 4-8 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0352 AM CDT Mon Aug 11 2025 Valid 141200Z - 191200Z ....DISCUSSION... On Thursday/D4, a shortwave trough is forecast to move from MT into the northern Plains, with primary upper low well to the north. A surface trough and cold front should push eastward across the Dakotas as well, and extend roughly from MN into NE by Friday/D5 morning. Model spread is high regarding the amount of moisture return and instability, with some models likely over-estimating real instability. In any case, storms appear most likely from ND into northern MN, beneath 50+ kt midlevel westerlies. As such, a 15% severe area has been introduced. This wave will progress east/northeastward on Friday/D5, with a front trailing southwestward perhaps from Lake Superior across WI/MN and toward NE. A moist and unstable air mass will remain near and south of any such boundary, but the position of said boundary may depend on storms from the previous night, or possibly a continuation of such storms. Predictability is therefore low on Friday/D5. Beyond this time frame, it appears the storm track will shift northward into Canada, with upper ridging over much of the CONUS. ...Jewell.. 08/11/2025 = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
