Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1124 AM CDT Mon Jul 07 2025 Valid 071630Z - 081200Z ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING FROM NORTHEAST COLORADO INTO PARTS OF NEBRASKA AND SOUTH DAKOTA.... ...SUMMARY... Scattered severe storms are likely across the central into northern Plains. Severe wind gusts and large hail are the main threats. Isolated damaging winds are also possible across parts of the Lower Great Lakes, Ohio/Tennessee River Valleys, and the Northeast. ...SD/NE/KS/CO... A complex evolution of convection is expected this afternoon and evening across the central Plains. One line/cluster of thunderstorms is expected to develop from the showers across SD. Continued daytime heating will eventually lead to intensification and organization of storms building southeastward into NE and western IA. These storms will pose a risk of large hail and damaging winds. Farther southwest, storms are expected to develop and spread eastward across southeast WY and northeast CO (similar to yesterday) and eventually track into western NE/KS. These storms will also pose risk of damaging winds and hail through the early evening. It appears likely that these two convective regimes will congeal during the evening, with more of a southward push into KS and eventually northern OK late tonight, although the severe risk by that time is uncertain. ...OH to ME... A warm/humid air mass is present today from OH northeastward across parts of NY/PA and northern New England. Widely scattered afternoon thunderstorms are expected along this entire corridor. Strong daytime heating will result in steep low-level lapse rates, with sufficient mid-level westerly flow to aid in gusty/damaging wind gusts. ..Hart/Karstens.. 07/07/2025 Read more

Tropical Depression Chantal Public Advisory Number 8

Issued at 1100 AM EDT Sun Jul 06 2025 000 WTNT33 KNHC 061436 TCPAT3 BULLETIN Tropical Depression Chantal Advisory Number 8 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL032025 1100 AM EDT Sun Jul 06 2025 ...CHANTAL MOVING INTO EASTERN NORTH CAROLINA... ...FLASH FLOOD THREAT CONTINUES AS RAINBANDS MOVE ACROSS CENTRAL AND EASTERN NORTH CAROLINA... SUMMARY OF 1100 AM EDT...1500 UTC...INFORMATION ----------------------------------------------- LOCATION...34.4N 79.2W ABOUT 20 MI...30 KM SW OF LUMBERTON NORTH CAROLINA ABOUT 80 MI...130 KM W OF WILMINGTON NORTH CAROLINA MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS...35 MPH...55 KM/H PRESENT MOVEMENT...N OR 360 DEGREES AT 9 MPH...15 KM/H MINIMUM CENTRAL PRESSURE...1007 MB...29.74 INCHES WATCHES AND WARNINGS -------------------- CHANGES WITH THIS ADVISORY: All Tropical Storm Warnings have been discontinued. SUMMARY OF WATCHES AND WARNINGS IN EFFECT: There are no coastal watches or warnings in effect. DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK ---------------------- At 1100 AM EDT (1500 UTC), the center of Tropical Depression Chantal was located near latitude 34.4 North, longitude 79.2 West. The depression is moving toward the north near 9 mph (15 km/h) and this motion is expected to continue today. A turn toward the northeast is expected this evening and that motion should continue into Monday. On the forecast track, the center of Chantal is expected to move over eastern North Carolina through tonight. Maximum sustained winds have decreased to near 35 mph (55 km/h) with higher gusts. Additional weakening is expected during the next 24 hours, and the system is expected to degenerate into a trough of low pressure on Monday. The estimated minimum central pressure is 1007 mb (29.74 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- Key messages for Tropical Storm Chantal can be found in the Tropical Cyclone Discussion under AWIPS header MIATCDAT3 and WMO header WTNT43 KNHC. RAINFALL: Tropical Depression Chantal will continue to produce heavy rainfall across portions of central North Carolina into Monday. Storm total rainfall of 2 to 4 inches, with local amounts up to 6 inches, is expected. An elevated risk for flash flooding will continue. For a complete depiction of forecast rainfall and flash flooding associated with Tropical Depression Chantal, please see the National Weather Service Storm Total Rainfall Graphic, available at hurricanes.gov/graphics_at3.shtml?rainqpf TORNADOES: An isolated tornado or two is possible today over parts of eastern North Carolina. SURF: Life-threatening surf and rip current conditions are expected to continue at beaches along the U.S. east coast from northeastern Florida to the Mid-Atlantic states during the next day or so. A depiction of rip current risk for the United States can be found at: hurricanes.gov/graphics_at3.shtml?ripCurrents NEXT ADVISORY ------------- This is the last public advisory issued by the National Hurricane Center on Chantal. Future information on this system can be found in Public Advisories issued by the Weather Prediction Center beginning at 500 PM EDT, under AWIPS header TCPAT3, WMO header WTNT33 KWNH, and on the web at www.hurricanes.gov. $$ Forecaster Brown

Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0728 AM CDT Mon Jul 07 2025 Valid 071300Z - 081200Z ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER PORTIONS OF THE CENTRAL AND NORTHERN PLAINS... ...SUMMARY... Scattered severe storms are likely across the central into northern Plains. Severe wind gusts and large hail are the main threats. Isolated damaging winds are also possible across parts of the Lower Great Lakes, Ohio River Valley, and the Northeast. ...Central High Plains into the northern Plains... A shortwave trough within westerly mid-level flow will move east/southeast across the central/northern Plains through tonight, along the periphery of a meridionally-expanding upper-level ridge. Steep mid-level lapse rates will expand east across the central Plains, above a moist boundary layer (generally 60s F dew points) and contributing to strong instability this afternoon with MLCAPE at or above 2500 J/kg. Thunderstorms are expected to develop this afternoon across the higher terrain over the central High Plains, and move east through this evening. Initial supercells will be capable of large to very large hail, though transitioning into one or more MCSs with an increase in damaging wind potential, including significant severe gusts. Thunderstorms are also expected to develop/re-intensify, across central/eastern SD along a surface trough, with upscale growth into an MCS capable of severe winds as it moves east, potentially into southwest MN this evening before weakening. Given expectations for greater coverage based on latest hi-res guidance, the Level 3/Enhanced Risk has been extended north across eastern SD/southwest MN based on higher (30%) severe wind probabilities. ...Upper Ohio River Valley, Lower Great Lakes, and the Northeast... A cold Front will move east today, and inpinge upon a moist (PW at or above 1.75 in) and moderately unstable air mass, with afternoon MLCAPE ranging from near 1000 J/kg across ME to 1500-2000 J/kg over the upper OH Valley. The area will located along the southern fringe of modest southwest mid-level flow, sufficient for some degree of updraft organization. Scattered multicell/clusters of thunderstorms developing this afternoon will pose a risk for strong/damaging gusts with isolated stronger storms. ...Lower Ohio Valley into Ozarks... Scattered thunderstorms this afternoon developing in the vicinity of a southward-advancing cold front will have the potential for isolated wet microbursts within a moist (PW 1.75 to over 2 inches) air mass. Weak cloud-bearing layer shear should limit organization, but overall storm coverage should be sufficient for isolated damaging gusts. ..Bunting/Marsh.. 07/07/2025 Read more
