SPC 1930Z Day 3 Outlook
Day 3 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0226 PM CDT Fri Sep 13 2024 Valid 151200Z - 161200Z ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST... ...SUMMARY... Organized severe thunderstorms are not expected Sunday. ...Discussion... A stagnant blocking pattern will exist over the East on Sunday, while an upper-level trough is expected to dig south-southeastward along the West Coast, reaching northern California Sunday night. The overall potential for severe storms should generally remain limited by weak deep-layer/low-level shear where low-level moisture and buoyancy will persist across the Plains/Upper Midwest and coastal Southeast. A few stronger storms could occur across the north-central High Plains Sunday late afternoon into evening with moderate instability near/east of the surface trough, potentially further influenced by an approaching shortwave trough. ..Guyer.. 09/13/2024 Read more

MD 2066 CONCERNING SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH UNLIKELY FOR PARTS OF THE FL PANHANDLE INTO SOUTHEAST AL/SOUTHWEST GA
Mesoscale Discussion 2066 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1251 PM CDT Fri Sep 13 2024 Areas affected...Parts of the FL Panhandle into southeast AL/southwest GA Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely Valid 131751Z - 131945Z Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent SUMMARY...Locally damaging wind and perhaps a tornado are possible this afternoon. DISCUSSION...A small thunderstorm cluster has recently become better organized across the FL Panhandle. The KEVX VWP depicts backed (but also relatively weak) low-level flow with modest southwesterly flow aloft, supporting effective shear of 30-35 kt. Modest heating is ongoing downstream of this cluster, with MLCAPE increasing into the 1000-1500 J/kg range. This may help to sustain the ongoing cluster, along with some potential for additional development into southwest GA with time. Locally damaging gusts will be possible, along with some potential for a tornado where surface flow remains backed through the afternoon. ..Dean/Gleason.. 09/13/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

MD 2065 CONCERNING SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH UNLIKELY FOR PARTS OF AL INTO MIDDLE TN
Mesoscale Discussion 2065 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1221 PM CDT Fri Sep 13 2024 Areas affected...Parts of AL into middle TN Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely Valid 131721Z - 131945Z Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent SUMMARY...The threat for locally damaging wind and possibly a tornado may increase into this afternoon. DISCUSSION...A remnant surface low is located over northern AR early this afternoon. An occluded front extends east-northeast of the low into western TN, then extends southeast as a stationary or warm front across parts of northern/central AL into western GA. Farther south, a cold front is moving across MS, with a surface trough/wind shift noted to the east from western AL into southern MS. In the vicinity of these boundaries, convection is gradually increasing from western AL into southern middle TN, and a few cells across northwest AL have exhibited some weak rotation. While low-level flow/shear has gradually decreased as the remnant of Tropical Cyclone Francine has weakened, effective SRH of around 100 m2/s2 and modestly favorable deep-layer shear will continue to favor occasionally organized convection into this afternoon. MLCAPE will increase to near or above 1000 J/kg, with an increase in convective coverage expected with time within a weakly capped environment. A few marginal supercells could evolve with time, and a tornado cannot be ruled out, especially in a zone between the surface trough/wind shift approaching from the west and the effective warm front to the east, where low-level flow will remain locally backed as gradual heating/destabilization continues. Otherwise, locally damaging winds will be possible, especially if any localized clustering of convection can develop with time. ..Dean/Gleason.. 09/13/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

A Tropical Storm Watch means that tropical storm conditions are possible within the watch area, in this case within 36 hours. Interests elsewhere in the Mexican states of Baja California Sur, Sinaloa, and Sonora should closely monitor the progress of Ileana. For storm information specific to your area, please monitor products issued by your national meteorological service. DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK ---------------------- At 1100 AM MST (1800 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Ileana was located near latitude 22.4 North, longitude 109.3 West. Ileana is moving toward the north-northwest near 8 mph (13 km/h). A slower north-northwestward to northward motion is expected during the next few days. On the forecast track, Ileana is expected to move across the southern portion of the Baja California peninsula this afternoon and over the southern and central Gulf of California this weekend. Recently-received satellite wind data indicate that maximum sustained winds are near 45 mph (75 km/h) with higher gusts. Little change in strength is forecast before Ileana reaches the Baja California peninsula. Weakening is expected over the weekend, and Ileana is forecast to dissipate by Monday. Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 60 miles (95 km) to the east of the center. The estimated minimum central pressure is 999 mb (29.50 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- Key messages for Ileana can be found in the Tropical Cyclone Discussion under AWIPS header MIATCDEP4 and WMO header WTPZ44 KNHC. RAINFALL: Through this weekend, Tropical Storm Ileana may produce rainfall of 4 to 6 inches, with localized higher amounts up to 8 inches, across southern Baja California. For northwest coastal Sinaloa, Tropical Storm Ileana may result between 6 to 8 inches with localized higher amounts up to 12 inches. For a complete depiction of forecast rainfall associated with Tropical Storm Ileana, please see the National Weather Service Storm Total Rainfall Graphic, available at hurricanes.gov/graphics_ep4.shtml?rainqpf WIND: Tropical storm conditions are expected to first reach the coast of the southern Baja California Peninsula within the warning area during the next few hours. Tropical storm conditions are possible within the watch area by early Saturday. SURF: Swells generated by Ileana will affect portions of the coast of west-central Mexico and the coast of the southern Baja California Peninsula during the next couple of days. These swells are likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions. Please consult products from your local weather office.

Day 2 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1230 PM CDT Fri Sep 13 2024 Valid 141200Z - 151200Z ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST... ...SUMMARY... Organized severe thunderstorms are not forecast on Saturday. ...North-Central High Plains including parts of NE/SD... A north/south-oriented boundary will be in place Saturday afternoon and evening across the north-central High Plains, spanning northeast Colorado and western Nebraska into the western Dakotas. Influenced by stronger westerlies centered over the Pacific Northwest, semi-cool mid-level temperatures and relatively steep lapse rates will coincide with 50s F surface dewpoints near/east of the surface trough/boundary, leading to 1000+ J/kg MLCAPE by mid-afternoon. At least widely scattered thunderstorms are expected to develop by mid/late afternoon. Effective shear of 25-30 kt could support some multicellular storm sustenance. A few of these storms could produce marginally severe hail and/or strong wind gusts, although some spatial/intensity details very in guidance. Subsequent outlooks into the Day 1 time frame will reevaluate for the potential introduction of severe probabilities. ...Southeast... The remnants of Post-Tropical Cyclone Francine will continue to weaken and remain nearly stationary across the Lower Mississippi Valley on Saturday. At least modest buoyancy should be displaced well to its southeast across Florida and the coastal Southeast Saturday afternoon, well away from the Tennessee Valley. The overall potential for organized severe storms appears low. ..Guyer.. 09/13/2024 Read more
