MD 1575 CONCERNING SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 519... FOR SOUTHEAST NE...NORTHEAST KS...SOUTHERN IA...NORTHERN MO
Mesoscale Discussion 1575 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0504 PM CDT Wed Jul 10 2024 Areas affected...southeast NE...northeast KS...southern IA...northern MO Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 519... Valid 102204Z - 102330Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 519 continues. SUMMARY...A threat for at least isolated hail and damaging wind may persist into the early evening. There is some potential for redevelopment northwest of the ongoing storms. DISCUSSION...A compact mid/upper-level low will continue moving south-southeastward across Iowa into this evening. Strong to occasionally severe storms that earlier developed across southwest IA are moving into northern MO late this afternoon. Storms have struggled to remain organized thus far, likely due to marginal effective shear (generally 20-30 kt). However, moderate buoyancy (MLCAPE of greater than 1500 J/kg) and seasonably cool temperatures aloft could support occasional hail potential with the strongest updrafts. Rather extensive outflow has developed in the wake of these storms, which could support an isolated damaging-wind threat with any stronger storms along or just behind the gust front. Farther northwest into eastern NE, there is less influence from convective outflow, with moderate buoyancy expected to persist into early evening. While the surface pattern is rather nebulous, additional development is underway across the northwest portion of WW 519, and also just to the west of the watch, which could pose a threat of isolated hail and damaging gusts. Trends will continue to be monitored for the potential need of local watch expansion to the north and west of WW 319. ..Dean.. 07/10/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

MD 1574 CONCERNING TORNADO WATCH 517... FOR PORTIONS OF NORTHERN MID-ATLANTIC INTO PARTS OF NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND
Mesoscale Discussion 1574 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0353 PM CDT Wed Jul 10 2024 Areas affected...Portions of northern Mid-Atlantic into parts of northern New England Concerning...Tornado Watch 517... Valid 102053Z - 102230Z The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 517 continues. SUMMARY...The tornado risk will continue in WW 517, particularly near the effective warm front. A new tornado watch is possible into New Hampshire and far western Maine. DISCUSSION...Discrete supercells continue to move through central/eastern New York and into Vermont. A few weaker, but rotating, cells have developed southwest of Burlington, VT, recently. Discrete storms, particularly those near the effective warm front, will pose the greatest risk of a tornado in addition to damaging winds. Regional VAD winds from central/eastern New York into Vermont show improved low-level shear over the last couple of hours. While destabilization has been a bit more modest into New Hampshire/western Maine, there is a possibility that severe storms will progress into these areas this evening. With continued mid-level ascent and a strengthening low-level jet, a tornado watch will need to be considered farther east from WW 517. ..Wendt.. 07/10/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

Mesoscale Discussion 1573 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0322 PM CDT Wed Jul 10 2024 Areas affected...Central Virginia into south-central Pennsylvania Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 518... Valid 102022Z - 102215Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 518 continues. SUMMARY...Additional storm development is possible along the cold front moving through the Mid-Atlantic. Damaging winds will be the primary risk late this afternoon into the evening. DISCUSSION...Lack of mid-level ascent has likely contributed to storm coverage and intensity being rather low near the Blue Ridge. However, with the cold front moving through the region, additional storms may develop and organize along this front late this afternoon. Temperatures broadly in the low/mid 90s F have contributed to 2500+ J/kg MLCAPE. Storm organization will be greater farther north given the proximity to the mid-level jet, but cold pool mergers could lead to linear structures farther south. Damaging winds remain the primary threat. ..Wendt.. 07/10/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product... ATTN...WFO...AKQ...CTP...LWX...RNK...

SPC Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook
Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0500 PM CDT Wed Jul 10 2024 Valid 121200Z - 181200Z Beginning D3/Friday, a weak upper-level low located off of the California coast will begin moving northward along the western periphery of an upper-level ridge centered over the Great Basin. Throughout D4/Saturday, this upper feature is expected to translate northward to the Pacific Northwest, bringing some increased chances of dry thunderstorm occurrence across much of the Sierra range into the Cascades. By D5/Sunday, significant disagreement in the medium range guidance occurs in the timing and phasing of a shortwave trough that approaches the Oregon/Washington Coast, though the occurrence of at least some dry thunder appears possible. D6/Monday through D8/Wednesday, ridging is forecast to return to much of the West, bringing with it hot and dry conditions. ...Northwest... Dry/breezy conditions are expected across portions of the southern Cascades on D3/Friday, into far Northern California. Some uncertainty remains in the strength of forecast surface winds, though with low relative humidity and terrain induced winds, there may be locally critical conditions. By D4/Saturday, isolated dry thunderstorm occurrence appears possible across much of the Sierra and Cascade ranges, into Eastern Oregon and Western Idaho, as better moisture arrives in advance of the approaching upper low. Chances for dry thunder will continue into D5/Sunday for much of Eastern Oregon into Idaho, though uncertainty in the forecast for ascent precludes the expansion or addition of dry thunder areas. There is some indication of an additional shortwave trough bringing chances of dry thunder to portions of Washington, though significant disagreement exists in model guidance on the timing and placement of the trough, precluding the addition of any dry thunder probabilities at this time. ...Northern Arizona into Southern Utah... Some chances for dry thunder exist along the northern periphery of monsoonal moisture in northern Arizona into Southern Utah on D3/Friday and D4/Saturday. However, the threat appears to be localized, with generally higher PWAT values and only modestly receptive fuels where dry thunder is most likely. ..Halbert/Weinman.. 07/10/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product...

Chances for dry thunder will continue into D5/Sunday for much of Eastern Oregon into Idaho, though uncertainty in the forecast for ascent precludes the expansion or addition of dry thunder areas. There is some indication of an additional shortwave trough bringing chances of dry thunder to portions of Washington, though significant disagreement exists in model guidance on the timing and placement of the trough, precluding the addition of any dry thunder probabilities at this time. ...Northern Arizona into Southern Utah... Some chances for dry thunder exist along the northern periphery of monsoonal moisture in northern Arizona into Southern Utah on D3/Friday and D4/Saturday. However, the threat appears to be localized, with generally higher PWAT values and only modestly receptive fuels where dry thunder is most likely. ..Halbert/Weinman.. 07/10/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product...

SPC Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook
Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0500 PM CDT Wed Jul 10 2024 Valid 121200Z - 181200Z Beginning D3/Friday, a weak upper-level low located off of the California coast will begin moving northward along the western periphery of an upper-level ridge centered over the Great Basin. Throughout D4/Saturday, this upper feature is expected to translate northward to the Pacific Northwest, bringing some increased chances of dry thunderstorm occurrence across much of the Sierra range into the Cascades. By D5/Sunday, significant disagreement in the medium range guidance occurs in the timing and phasing of a shortwave trough that approaches the Oregon/Washington Coast, though the occurrence of at least some dry thunder appears possible. D6/Monday through D8/Wednesday, ridging is forecast to return to much of the West, bringing with it hot and dry conditions. ...Northwest... Dry/breezy conditions are expected across portions of the southern Cascades on D3/Friday, into far Northern California. Some uncertainty remains in the strength of forecast surface winds, though with low relative humidity and terrain induced winds, there may be locally critical conditions.
