Day 4-8 Convective Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0346 AM CDT Sat Sep 20 2025

Valid 231200Z - 281200Z

....DISCUSSION...
A complex, low-predictability upper pattern will exist next week and
should eventually evolve into a closed upper low somewhere across
the eastern CONUS by the end of the week. The operational ECMWF and
GFS have significantly different evolution of the upper pattern,
almost switching places from the solution each showed 24 hours ago.
The ECMWF is now more progressive with a large cutoff low from the
GFS by Wed/D5 and Thu/D6. Even the EPS and GEFS (which showed
similar 500mb solutions 24 hours ago) have diverged and have lead to
increasing predictability concerns. Therefore, beyond Day 4, some
severe weather chances are possible within the warm sector ahead of
a surface front. However, significant differences in timing and
evolution of the pattern cast uncertainty on the overall threat.

....Day 4/Tuesday...
As the stronger mid-level trough emerges across the Plains Monday
night, a low-level jet will strengthen across Oklahoma. Therefore, a
MCS will likely be ongoing at 12Z Tuesday in the Oklahoma vicinity.
Moderate destabilization is forecast to the south of the remnant
MCS/outflow boundary on Tuesday. This region will likely be the
focus for some severe weather threat. It is unclear how the
Monday/D3 convection will evolve and how that may impact Tuesday,
but there is some potential for severe storms Tuesday
afternoon/evening. Once the evolution of the mid-level trough and
location of Monday night convection becomes more clear, severe
weather probabilities may be needed.
