Subj : DAY48SVR: Nws Storm Prediction Center Norman Ok To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Thu Sep 18 2025 14:10:34 ACUS48 KWNS 181410 SWOD48 SPC AC 181409 Day 4-8 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0909 AM CDT Thu Sep 18 2025 Valid 211200Z - 261200Z ....DISCUSSION... An upper shortwave trough is forecast to move across the northern Rockies on Day 4/Sun while low-amplitude, broad upper troughing persists across the central portion of the CONUS. By Day 5/Mon, the northern Rockies upper trough is expected to rapidly deepen as it overspread the plains. Rich boundary layer moisture if forecast to be in place across portions of the southern/central Plains into the MS Valley as a strong cold front moves across parts of the Plains. While the timing of the upper trough ejecting into the Plains is uncertain, some severe potential could develop on Day 5/Mon across the southern/central Plains toward the Mid/Lower MO Valley. Uncertainty remains too high to include 15 percent probabilities at this time however. Beyond Day 5/Mon, uncertainty increases as large spread among model guidance persists with regard to the evolution of a developing upper low somewhere over the mid-section of the CONUS into Day 8/Thu. Severe potential is uncertain, and the overall pattern may favor heavy rain over organized severe heading into Day 6/Tue, but model trends will continue to be monitored. ...Leitman.. 09/18/2025 = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
