Day 4-8 Outlook
Day 4-8 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0335 AM CDT Sun Sep 22 2024 Valid 251200Z - 301200Z ...DISCUSSION... Large spread among guidance is apparent during the Day 4-8 period. Most guidance develops an upper cyclone over the central or eastern U.S. for much of the period, while an upper ridge persists over the western states. However, the GFS suite of guidance is much more progressive with the central/eastern upper trough/low compared to the ECMWF, and eventually develops a broad upper ridge over much of the CONUS late in the period. Given vastly different forecast solutions, confidence in any severe potential developing during the forecast period is low. Read more

SPC 0730Z Day 3 Outlook
Day 3 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0152 AM CDT Sun Sep 22 2024 Valid 241200Z - 251200Z ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST... ...SUMMARY... Severe thunderstorm potential appears low on Tuesday. ...TN/OH Valley into the Central Appalachians... An upper trough will shift east across the central U.S. on Tuesday, however there is uncertainty in the exact evolution/timing of this feature among various forecast guidance. Nevertheless, modestly enhanced midlevel southwesterly flow ahead of the upper trough will overspread portions of the OH/TN Valleys and central Appalachian vicinity. A moist airmass will be in place, characterized by 60s F dewpoints. Ongoing precipitation is possible Tuesday morning, associated with a lead shortwave impulse/convectively enhanced vorticity max over the OH Valley. As a result, the degree of daytime destabilization across the warm sector is uncertain. Some severe thunderstorm potential may develop from KY/TN toward the central Appalachians vicinity given modestly enhanced mid/upper level flow overspreading the moist warm sector. However, given large uncertainty in the evolution/timing of the central U.S. upper trough and concerns over a recovering/destabilizing warm sector, will hold off on introducing severe probabilities at this time. ..Leitman.. 09/22/2024 Read more

SPC 0600Z Day 2 Outlook
Day 2 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1220 AM CDT Sun Sep 22 2024 Valid 231200Z - 241200Z ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE OZARKS INTO PARTS OF KENTUCKY AND TENNESSEE... ...SUMMARY... Isolated strong to severe thunderstorms are possible from the Ozarks into parts of Kentucky and Tennessee on Monday. ...Ozarks to KY/TN... An upper shortwave trough from the Mid/Lower MO Valley to the southern Plains vicinity will not progress eastward very much on Monday. However, enhanced midlevel flow (around 40 kt at 500 mb) associated with this feature will overspread the Ozarks to the Lower OH and TN Valley vicinity. At the surface, a cold front will develop south and east across southern MO and AR, becoming located near the MS River by 12z Tuesday. Meanwhile a quasi-stationary surface boundary will be oriented west to east near the OH River. While a moist boundary layer will exist across the warm sector, bounded by these surface fronts, considerable uncertainty remains in the Day 2/Mon forecast. This uncertainty is largely driven by widespread cloudiness and perhaps areas of ongoing precipitation Monday morning, possibly resulting in stunted daytime heating/destabilization. Additionally, given the less progressive nature of the mid/upper trough, large-scale ascent may remain somewhat nebulous/unfocused through peak heating. Nevertheless, where pockets of stronger heating and destabilization occur across the warm sector, strong to severe storms will be possible given moderate vertical shear overspreading the moist boundary layer in the presence of a surface boundary. Isolated damaging gusts and sporadic hail will be the main hazards with this activity Monday afternoon into the evening. ..Leitman.. 09/22/2024 Read more

SPC 1200Z Day 1 Outlook
Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1234 AM CDT Sun Sep 22 2024 Valid 221200Z - 231200Z ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM PORTIONS OF WEST TEXAS TO WESTERN KENTUCKY... ...SUMMARY... Isolated severe thunderstorms are possible from west Texas to western Kentucky. ...West Texas to Western Kentucky... Notable upper low is currently located over the Four Corners region, shifting east in line with latest model guidance. This feature will gradually deamplify as it shifts east into the southern High Plains by the end of the period. As the trough shifts east, upper anticyclone will be suppressed toward the northwestern Gulf Basin and modest southwesterly 500mb flow will overspread west TX into the lower OH Valley. This evolution warrants a surface ridge building south across the High Plains and a sharp cold front should surge across the TX South Plains fairly early in the period, ultimately arcing from the Edwards Plateau-eastern OK-southern MO by 23/00z. This boundary should serve as the primary focus for potential robust convection through the period. Early this morning, scattered supercells, and more substantial clusters, are noted across the TX Panhandle into southern KS. This activity will gradually shift east and likely be ongoing in some fashion early in the period. Remnants of these storms, and left over convective debris, may inhibit surface heating near the front. Although, latest NAM suggests modest heating by 18z immediately ahead of the front from southwest TX-eastern OK-southwest MO, which should aid destabilization. Forecast soundings along this corridor exhibit steep 0-2km lapse rates, but mid-level values only around 6-6.5 C/km. While effective bulk shear will support organization, thermodynamic profiles are not particularly impressive, but likely adequate for robust updrafts capable of generating gusty winds and perhaps some hail, especially across portions of west TX. ..Darrow/Thornton.. 09/22/2024 Read more
