Subj : DAY48SVR: Nws Storm Prediction Center Norman Ok To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Thu Aug 14 2025 08:29:34 ACUS48 KWNS 140828 SWOD48 SPC AC 140826 Day 4-8 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0326 AM CDT Thu Aug 14 2025 Valid 171200Z - 221200Z ....DISCUSSION... An upper ridge is forecast to build over the Plains and Rockies through Tuesday/D6, with the upper high retrograding from the central Plains to the Four Corners. East of the ridge axis, northwest midlevel flow of 20-30 kt will persist over the upper MS Valley/Great Lakes, with a large area of moisture and instability roughly from MN/IA to IL/IN. This pattern should support corridors of thunderstorms in the low-level warm advection zone, or along the northern instability gradient through Tuesday/D6. While areas of strong wind gusts will be possible, the overall severe probably is less than the 15% threshold over this large zone. The upper ridge may flatten over the northern Rockies/Plains beyond D6, with perhaps an eventual northwest flow regime coinciding with residual instability, supporting at least minimal severe potential over the northern Plains. ...Jewell.. 08/14/2025 = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
