Subj : DAY2SVR: Marginal Risk MW To : All From : Mike Powell Date : Sat Mar 30 2024 08:43:00 ACUS02 KWNS 300553 SWODY2 SPC AC 300551 Day 2 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1251 AM CDT Sat Mar 30 2024 Valid 311200Z - 011200Z ....THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM PARTS OF THE LOWER MISSOURI VALLEY EASTWARD TO THE CENTRAL APPALACHIANS... ....SUMMARY... A marginal severe threat with a potential for isolated large hail, and perhaps a few isolated strong wind gusts, are expected Sunday and Sunday night from the lower Missouri Valley eastward into the mid to upper Mississippi and Ohio Valleys. ....Lower Missouri Valley/Mid to Upper Mississippi and Ohio Valleys... An anticyclonic mid-level flow pattern will be in place across the eastern two-thirds of the nation on Sunday. At the surface, a warm front is forecast to move northward through the mid Mississippi and Ohio Valleys. Numerous thunderstorms are expected to develop along and to the north of the boundary during the afternoon and evening from northeast Missouri eastward to the central Appalachians. Most of the storms will remain elevated. Additional storms may develop further to the west in parts of northwest Missouri and southeast Nebraska during the overnight period. Forecast soundings around 00Z from northern Missouri eastward to central Indiana and southwest Ohio by 00Z have MUCAPE in the 1000 to 1500 J/kg range. Effective shear along much of this east-to-west corridor is forecast to be in the 50 to 60 knot range. This environment, combined with 700-500 mb lapse rates of 7 to 8 C/km will likely be sufficient for an isolated large hail threat with supercells and the more intense multicells. A more confined potential for surface-based storms is expected from northern Missouri into central Illinois. These storms could obtain a wind-damage or marginal tornado threat. The severe threat may persist across parts of the region into the overnight period. After midnight, the greatest potential for isolated large hail would be in far southeast Nebraska and northwest Missouri where mid-level lapse rates are forecast to be steep. ...Broyles.. 03/30/2024 $$ --- SBBSecho 3.20-Linux * Origin: ILink: CCO - capitolcityonline.net (454:3/105) .
