WW 424 SEVERE TSTM IA IL IN WI LM 161915Z - 170100Z
URGENT - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED Severe Thunderstorm Watch Number 424 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 215 PM CDT Sun Jun 16 2024 The NWS Storm Prediction Center has issued a * Severe Thunderstorm Watch for portions of Far Eastern Iowa Northern Illinois Far Northwest Indiana Southern Wisconsin Lake Michigan * Effective this Sunday afternoon and evening from 215 PM until 800 PM CDT. * Primary threats include... Scattered damaging wind gusts to 70 mph likely Isolated large hail events to 1.5 inches in diameter possible A tornado or two possible SUMMARY...A small bowing cluster of thunderstorms should continue to increase in size and intensity this afternoon as it spreads east-northeastward across northern Illinois and southern Wisconsin. Severe/damaging winds around 60-70 mph should be the main threat, but isolated hail up to 1-1.5 inches in diameter and a brief tornado also appear possible. The severe thunderstorm watch area is approximately along and 65 statute miles north and south of a line from 65 miles west southwest of Rockford IL to 50 miles north of Valparaiso IN. For a complete depiction of the watch see the associated watch outline update (WOUS64 KWNS WOU4). PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS... REMEMBER...A Severe Thunderstorm Watch means conditions are favorable for severe thunderstorms in and close to the watch area. Persons in these areas should be on the lookout for threatening weather conditions and listen for later statements and possible warnings. Severe thunderstorms can and occasionally do produce tornadoes. && AVIATION...A few severe thunderstorms with hail surface and aloft to 1.5 inches. Extreme turbulence and surface wind gusts to 60 knots. A few cumulonimbi with maximum tops to 500. Mean storm motion vector 25035. ...Gleason Read more

MD 1292 CONCERNING SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH POSSIBLE FOR SOUTHWEST/CENTRAL NE INTO NORTHEAST CO AND NORTHWEST KS
Mesoscale Discussion 1292 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0622 PM CDT Sun Jun 16 2024 Areas affected...Southwest/central NE into northeast CO and northwest KS Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible Valid 162322Z - 170045Z Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent SUMMARY...Strong to severe thunderstorms are possible this evening. DISCUSSION...Convective initiation is underway just southwest of McCook, NE, in the vicinity of a nearly stationary front draped from northeast CO into south-central/northeast NE. Strong buoyancy is in place within the rather hot and well-mixed environment along/south of the front, along with sufficient effective shear (generally 30-35 kt) for some storm organization. Storm coverage may remain rather isolated in the short term in the absence of stronger large-scale ascent, but an isolated supercell or two could form near the front into the early evening, with a threat of large hail and localized severe gusts. Watch issuance in the short term is uncertain, but remains possible if the threat for multiple severe storms appears imminent. Later this evening, a general increase in elevated storm coverage (including the potential for hail) is expected north of the front as a low-level jet intensifies, with watch issuance becoming possible across a larger portion of the region. ..Dean/Smith.. 06/16/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

Tropical Weather Outlook
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
500 PM PDT Sun Jun 16 2024

For the eastern North Pacific...east of 140 degrees west longitude:

Offshore Central America (EP90):
A small area of low pressure located just offshore and to the south
of the Guatemala/Mexico border is producing disorganized showers
and thunderstorms. Environmental conditions appear conducive for
slight additional development before the system moves inland
tonight or early Monday. Regardless of development, several days
of heavy rainfall are expected across portions of southern Mexico
and Central America. These rains are likely to cause
life-threatening flooding and flash flooding.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...30 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...low...30 percent.

MD 1291 CONCERNING SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 424... FOR NORTHERN ILLINOIS AND ADJACENT SOUTHEASTERN WISCONSIN
Mesoscale Discussion 1291 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0342 PM CDT Sun Jun 16 2024 Areas affected...northern Illinois and adjacent southeastern Wisconsin Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 424... Valid 162042Z - 162245Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 424 continues. SUMMARY...There appears increasing risk for potentially damaging wind gusts as an organizing cluster of storms accelerates into the Greater Chicago and Milwaukee metro areas through 5-6 PM CDT. DISCUSSION...Based on 20Z surface observations, the convectively-generated cold pool remains modest in strength. However, a notable intensification of convection along its leading edge appears underway, and this seems likely to be sustained east-northeastward into the southern Lake Michigan vicinity through 22-23Z, aided by easterly low-level inflow of unstable air characterized by CAPE in excess of 1500 J/kg. Boundary-layer mixing has lowered surface dew points into the 60s F, but lapse rates have become rather steep with temperatures rising through the lower/mid 90s F. With some further increase in temperature differential across the gust front, and strengthening rear inflow, it appears that the forward propagation of the organizing cluster may undergo acceleration toward the Greater Chicago and, perhaps, Greater Milwaukee metro areas through 22-23Z, accompanied by increasing risk for potentially damaging wind gusts. ..Kerr.. 06/16/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

MD 1290 CONCERNING SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH UNLIKELY FOR THE OK PANHANDLE...NORTHERN TEXAS PANHANDLE...WESTERN KANSAS AND FAR EASTERN COLORADO
Mesoscale Discussion 1290 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0339 PM CDT Sun Jun 16 2024 Areas affected...the OK Panhandle...northern Texas Panhandle...western Kansas and far eastern Colorado Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely Valid 162039Z - 162215Z Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent SUMMARY...There is a threat for isolated to scattered thunderstorms this afternoon capable of large hail or severe wind gusts. DISCUSSION...A few thunderstorms have formed in southwest Kansas where the combination of heat (upper 90s) and dewpoints in the low to mid 60s has combined to break the cap. Shear is relatively weak in this area (20 to 25 knots), although some multicells or occasional supercells may be possible. Given the strongly unstable environment downstream (2000+ J/kg MLCAPE), at least some large hail/severe wind threat will persist with this activity as it continues into early evening before weakening near sunset as the boundary layer cools. A better environment is present farther north (2000-3000 J/kg MLCAPE and 40-50 knots of shear) in northwest Kansas and vicinity. However, storm development is more uncertain here with a strong CAP shown by the 20Z LBF RAOB. Some high-based cumulus have developed in this region. If storms can form, they will likely be supercellular with a threat for large to potentially 2+ inch hail and severe wind gusts. Therefore, will continue to monitor this region for a potential watch if development appears imminent this afternoon. Regardless of this afternoon threat, increased severe chances are expected this evening from northwest Kansas northward as the low-level jet strengthens. ..Bentley/Gleason.. 06/16/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

SPC Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook
Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0448 PM CDT Sun Jun 16 2024 Valid 181200Z - 241200Z A broad longwave trough will be present through the first part of the extended period over the western CONUS. Residual stronger flow from a departing shortwave trough may result in some dry, breezy conditions with receptive fuels across parts of New Mexico and far southeast Colorado on Day 3 (Tuesday), and 40% Critical highlights have been maintained in this area. By Day 4 (Wednesday), a plume of tropical moisture is expected to begin advecting northwestward into the southern Rockies, which may provide a reprieve from fire weather concerns in this area due to precipitation and high RH. Farther west across portions of Arizona, Utah, and Nevada, some stronger flow aloft may result in some dry, breezy conditions on Days 4 and 5 (Wednesday and Thursday), though confidence is too low to highlight individual areas at the moment. By the end of the period, ridging develops over the southwestern CONUS, confining strongest mid-level flow to the northwestern CONUS. Some Elevated or Critical fire risk is possible in this region, though again, confidence is too low to highlight individual areas at this time. ..Supinie.. 06/16/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product...
