Day 1 Fire Weather Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
1041 AM CST Sat Mar 09 2024
Valid 091700Z - 101200Z
...NO CRITICAL AREAS...
No changes. See previous discussion below.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 1245 AM CST Sat Mar 09 2024/
...Synopsis...
Fire concerns will remain low on Saturday. A cool, post-frontal,
continental air mass will remain in place beneath surface high
pressure across the central and southern Plains. This will keep
relative humidity around 30-35 percent with light winds where the
driest fuels are located.

SPC 1630Z Day 1 Outlook
Day 1 Convective Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
1036 AM CST Sat Mar 09 2024
Valid 091630Z - 101200Z
...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR SOUTHERN
GEORGIA AND NORTHERN PORTIONS OF FLORIDA...AND FROM CENTRAL SOUTH
CAROLINA AND SOUTHERN NORTH CAROLINA...
...SUMMARY...
A few tornadoes and damaging to severe thunderstorm gusts are
possible through early evening across parts of the Southeast States.
...GA/north FL...
Radar/satellite imagery shows a southwest to northeast oriented
broken band of thunderstorms from the eastern part of the FL
Panhandle into southeast GA. A moist/unstable airmass south of the
thunderstorm activity where strong mid- to high-level southwesterly
flow will continue to aid in storm organization and episodic
bows/supercells capable of a locally damaging wind threat and/or
brief tornado. As the large-scale upper trough continues to pivot
towards the region, the cold front will push southeast through
southern GA/northern FL later today and this evening. For
short-term convective details, please reference upcoming MCD #211
across southern GA/northern portions of FL.
...Carolinas...
The stabilizing influence of the early morning convective band
--currently over the shelf waters as of late morning-- will diminish
as a mid-level speed max approaches the western Carolinas later
today. Surface observations indicate dewpoints in the mid 60s
across central SC with increasing low-level moisture advecting into
southern NC. Strong southwesterly mid to high-level flow will favor
storm organization. Primary uncertainty is the magnitude of
buoyancy that can develop in wake of early morning cloud
cover/precip. Forecast soundings show primarily 750-1250 J/kg
MLCAPE potentially developing by mid afternoon from central SC into
southern NC. The tendency for veering flow in the low levels will
occur as a surface low develops/deepens north-northeastward through
the evening from the Carolinas into the Mid-Atlantic states. Models
continue to vary on the coverage of storm activity this afternoon,
but some guidance indicates shallow rotating storms developing
during peak heating ahead of a cold front. Due to the possibility
for few transient supercells later this afternoon, have maintained a
categorical Slight Risk for a portion of this region. This activity
will likely diminish by early evening as instability wanes.
