Subj : DAY2SVR: Nws Storm Predic To : All From : Mike Powell Date : Thu Dec 14 2023 09:07:00 ACUS02 KWNS 140643 SWODY2 SPC AC 140641 Day 2 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1241 AM CST Thu Dec 14 2023 Valid 151200Z - 161200Z ....NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST... ....SUMMARY... Severe thunderstorms are not expected on Friday. ....Central to east TX... Pronounced forcing for ascent ahead of a slow-moving shortwave trough over the southern Great Plains will support a swath of elevated convection likely persisting through the period. This activity should be centered on north to west-central TX at 12Z Friday and gradually progress east-southeast into the Sabine Valley to Mid/Upper TX Gulf Coast by early Saturday. Elevated parcels should consist of minimal to meager buoyancy as mid-level lapse rates become largely moist adiabatic in the southeast quadrant of the trough. Embedded thunderstorm coverage should remain isolated, but may increase Friday night across southeast TX where low-level moisture from the northwest Gulf will be greater. Across far south FL and the Keys, isolated low-topped convection will be possible amid scant surface-based instability. Consensus of guidance suggests that mid to upper-level lapse rates will be weak and potential for charge separation is slim. ...Grams.. 12/14/2023 $$ --- SBBSecho 3.14-Linux * Origin: Ilink: CCO - capitolcityonline.net (454:1/105) .
