Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0751 PM CDT Mon Jul 14 2025 Valid 150100Z - 151200Z ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN CENTRAL SD... ...SUMMARY... Strong to severe gusts over South Dakota should diminish into late evening. Isolated severe hail and wind remains possible overnight from parts of Montana to northern Minnesota. ...Northern/central High Plains to northern MT... Much of the high-based convection from southwest SD to northeast CO should weaken in the next couple hours, with a waning severe-gust threat. More recent development into north-central SD may persist into late evening before diminishing near the northeast SD/southeast ND border as nocturnal MLCIN builds. Elevated thunderstorms will develop in the late evening and become widespread overnight, especially across ND and northern MN, with strengthening large-scale ascent atop a well-defined surface front. Severe hail and strong gust coverage is expected to remain isolated. These hazards might be maximized in a mesoscale corridor across central/eastern ND into northern MN. But convective orientation nearly paralleling the effective bulk shear vector suggests a cluster mode should quickly dominate. This along with a minimal speed change in the mid to upper portion of the MUCAPE profile (as sampled by the 00Z BIS sounding) support maintaining level 1-MRGL risk. ...Southeast AZ... Sparse convective coverage amid weak mid-level northeasterlies, as sampled by area VWP data, appears to be mitigating the severe wind threat. Locally strong gusts may still occur through dusk as isolated cells slowly spread west-southwest. ..Grams.. 07/15/2025 Read more

Tropical Weather Outlook
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
800 PM EDT Mon Jul 14 2025

For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of America:

East of the Florida Peninsula into the Northeastern Gulf (AL93):
An area of low pressure located offshore of the east coast of
Florida continues to produce disorganized showers and thunderstorms
primarily south of the center. This system is forecast to move
westward across the Florida Peninsula on Tuesday and Tuesday night,
eventually moving into the northeastern Gulf by the middle part of
this week. Environmental conditions appear generally favorable for
additional development if the system remains offshore, and a
tropical depression could form as the system moves across the
northeastern and north-central Gulf by the middle to latter part of
this week.

Regardless of development, heavy rainfall could produce localized
flash flooding over portions of Florida and the north-central Gulf
coast through the middle to latter portion of this week.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...30 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...medium...40 percent.

SPC Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook
Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0455 PM CDT Mon Jul 14 2025 Valid 161200Z - 221200Z ...Day 3/Wednesday... Elevated mid-level flow south of a mid-level trough translating eastward into the Northern Plains will contribute to breezy winds across the southern Great Basin Day 3/Wednesday. Monsoon moisture in place across the eastern Great Basin and Upper Colorado River Basin and daytime destabilization over higher terrain will support isolated afternoon thunderstorms across the this region. A dry sub cloud layer will inhibit significant rainfall, increasing lightning ignition efficiency over very dry fuels. Deeper monsoon moisture across southern Arizona and New Mexico will inhibit new ignitions under heavier rain cores. ...Day 4/Thursday... Monsoon moisture surge makes northward progress into the Desert Southwest aided by mid-level low over Baja California. Increasingly deeper moisture will push the dry thunderstorm threat north of the Four Corners region Day 4/Thursday, with the eastern Great Basin, Utah and the Western Slope holding on to a dry boundary layer prohibiting appreciable rainfall. ...Day 5-8/Friday-Monday... The monsoon moisture surge, including widespread precipitable water values of 0.75-1.00 inches, is expected to push into the Intermountain West Day 5/Friday. Generally slow thunderstorm motions and higher precipitation efficiency should limit new ignition potential in this environment. Another mid-level trough and associated strengthening mid-level flow entering the Pacific Northwest will bring breezy and dry conditions back into central WA/OR as well as northeastern CA and northwestern NV where increasingly dry and receptive fuels exist. Drier conditions return to much of the West with associated convection shunted towards the Continental Divide over the weekend by a broad westerly flow. ..Williams.. 07/14/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product...

MD 1670 CONCERNING SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH POSSIBLE FOR EASTERN WYOMING...SOUTHWESTERN SOUTH DAKOTA...AND NEBRASKA PANHANDLE
Mesoscale Discussion 1670 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0318 PM CDT Mon Jul 14 2025 Areas affected...eastern Wyoming...southwestern South Dakota...and Nebraska Panhandle Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible Valid 142018Z - 142215Z Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent SUMMARY...Storms are expected to increase in coverage and intensity through the afternoon and evening. Convective trends will be monitored for the possibility of a severe thunderstorm watch. DISCUSSION...Thunderstorms initiated early this afternoon over the higher terrain of Wyoming, as ascent associated with an approaching midlevel shortwave trough overspreads the area. Continued initiation over the higher terrain along with new initiation farther east along the a surface pressure trough will eventually pose a severe-weather threat later this afternoon and evening. Although low-level moisture is mixing out across much of the area this afternoon (upper 40s to low 50s F 2-m Td), very steep low-level and midlevel lapse rates (per 18Z UNR sounding) are still resulting in over 1000 J/kg of MLCAPE. The inverted-v thermodynamic profiles across the region will support an isolated dry-microburst threat for the strongest storms. For a more organized severe threat, deep-layer shear is marginally supportive and strongest (around 30 knots) with northward extent into northeastern Wyoming and southwestern South Dakota. The latest CAM guidance suggests some potential for upscale growth of convection into clusters posing an organized severe-wind threat. Convective trends will be monitored for this scenario and the possibility of a watch. ..Jirak/Mosier.. 07/14/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

A severe thunderstorm watch is unlikely. DISCUSSION...Thunderstorms have initiated on low-level convergence boundaries across the region this afternoon in a hot, unstable (~2500 J/kg MLCAPE) airmass. While upper-tropospheric flow is weak (per XMR 14Z sounding), enhanced low-to-midlevel northerly flow on the west side of the low off the Atlantic coast may help storm organization. Local VWPs indicate around 25-30 knots of flow between 700 and 500 mb, which may help to organize southward-to-south-southwestward-propagating clusters as cold pools begin to merge. These storms will pose a damaging-wind threat this afternoon, but the impacts are expected to be too isolated to warrant a watch. ..Jirak/Mosier.. 07/14/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

Mesoscale Discussion 1668 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0120 PM CDT Mon Jul 14 2025 Areas affected...parts of MD/DC...northern/central VA...the eastern WV Panhandle...Southeast PA...far western NJ...northern DE, Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible Valid 141820Z - 142045Z Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent SUMMARY...Storms with potential for isolated to scattered wind damage are expected later this afternoon. DISCUSSION...Relatively strong heating of a very moist (PW near/above 2 inches) environment is underway this afternoon from southeast PA into MD and northern/central VA. MLCAPE is already above 2000 J/kg across much of the region, and may increase to near/above 3000 J/kg in areas where preconvective heating continues through late afternoon. Storms have already developed across central PA, with additional development recently noted farther south along the Blue Ridge into northwest/west-central VA. Storm coverage will continue to increase with time, in response to an approaching midlevel shortwave trough currently over western PA. Poor midlevel lapse rates and relatively weak effective shear (generally 15-25 kt) will tend to limit storm organization to some extent. However, the strongest initial cells may be capable of producing localized downbursts within the very moist environment. With time, consolidating outflows may result in one or more eastward-moving clusters that would move across the Mid Atlantic region. Any such cluster may be capable of producing localized swaths of more concentrated wind damage. Watch issuance is possible, depending on trends regarding clustering of storms with time. ..Dean/Mosier.. 07/14/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
