MD 1584 CONCERNING SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 489...490... FOR NORTHEAST COLORADO...NORTHWEST KS...AND SOUTHWEST NEBRASKA
Mesoscale Discussion 1584 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0603 PM CDT Sun Jul 06 2025 Areas affected...Northeast Colorado...northwest KS...and southwest Nebraska Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 489...490... Valid 062303Z - 070030Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 489, 490 continues. SUMMARY...A focused/favorable corridor for large hail and severe wind gusts is evident over the central High Plains for the next few hours -- within Severe Thunderstorm Watches 489/490. DISCUSSION...An intense, nearly stationary supercell has evolved out of a cluster of storms over far northeastern CO. Farther west, a separate cluster of storms is showing signs of upscale growth. To the southeast of this activity, a gradually stalling outflow boundary is arcing northwestward from northwest KS into northeastern CO. This outflow boundary may provide a focused mesoscale corridor for the maintenance of the supercell (and additional nearby convection) with southeastward extent into this evening. Along this corridor, around 40 kt of effective shear (locally boosted/enhanced along the boundary) and moderate surface-based instability will favor large to very large hail (some 2+ inches in diameter) and severe wind gusts with any established supercells/clusters. Some upscale growth may also occur with time, as the western cluster may have a tendency of merging with the downstream storms/supercells -- posing an increasing risk of severe-wind gusts into this evening. ..Weinman.. 07/06/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

Mesoscale Discussion 1583 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0454 PM CDT Sun Jul 06 2025 Areas affected...Parts of southern Kansas...northern Oklahoma...and the far eastern TX/OK Panhandles Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely Valid 062154Z - 070000Z Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent SUMMARY...Sporadic severe wind gusts and isolated large hail are possible with the stronger storms into this evening. A watch is not currently expected, though convective trends are being monitored. DISCUSSION...Widely scattered outflow-dominant thunderstorms are evolving along a stalled surface boundary from southern KS into northern OK. Steep midlevel lapse rates atop a warm/moist boundary layer are yielding strong surface-based buoyancy ahead of these storms. While the environment is favorable for sporadic severe downbursts and isolated large hail, generally weak deep-layer flow/shear limits confidence in storm organization/longevity. Therefore, a watch is not currently expected, though convective trends are being monitored. ..Weinman/Gleason.. 07/06/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

Scattered damaging winds and isolated significant gusts to 75 mph possible Scattered large hail and isolated very large hail events to 2 inches in diameter possible SUMMARY...Thunderstorms that have developed along an outflow boundary along the Kansas/Nebraska state line should continue to pose a threat for large hail up to 1-2 inches in diameter this afternoon and evening as they spread slowly southward. A cluster of thunderstorms may eventually spread eastward out of Colorado later this evening, with a threat for mainly severe/damaging winds. If this scenario occurs, peak gusts could reach up to 65-75 mph. The severe thunderstorm watch area is approximately along and 45 statute miles north and south of a line from 15 miles west of Goodland KS to 25 miles north northeast of Hill City KS. For a complete depiction of the watch see the associated watch outline update (WOUS64 KWNS WOU0). 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. && OTHER WATCH INFORMATION...CONTINUE...WW 489... AVIATION...A few severe thunderstorms with hail surface and aloft to 2 inches.

Tropical Weather Outlook
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
500 PM PDT Sun Jul 6 2025

For the eastern and central North Pacific east of 180 longitude:

Central East Pacific (EP96):
Disorganized showers and thunderstorms persist in association with
an area of low pressure located about 500 miles south of the
southern tip of the Baja California peninsula. This system could
still become a short-lived tropical depression before it moves
westward into unfavorable environmental conditions on Monday.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...medium...40 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...medium...40 percent.

South of Southwestern Mexico:
An area of low pressure could form several hundred miles offshore of
southwestern Mexico late this week. Some gradual development of
this system is possible thereafter while it moves generally
west-northwestward well off the coast of Mexico.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...low...20 percent.

A cut off low off in the northeast Pacific will begin to push northeastward into northern CA on Day 3/Tuesday, aided by an additional mid-level trough pushing into the Pacific Northwest. Enhanced downslope winds in conjunction with increasing mid-level flow and gap winds through the Columbia River Gorge will bring a fire weather threat to much of the Columbia River Basin Tuesday. Farther south, isolated dry thunderstorms with minimal rainfall will bring a threat of new fire starts over receptive fuels across central OR. Dry and breezy conditions will elevate fire weather concerns across southern NV and far western UT as well. ...Day 4/Wednesday... The northern CA low will advance into the Great Basin region Wednesday. A corridor of enhanced mid-level winds and daytime mixing within a deep/dry boundary layer will support breezy conditions across much of NV and portions of western UT elevating wildfire spread potential within dry fuels. ...Days 5-8/Thursday-Sunday... A mid-level ridge will build over the Southwestern U.S. for the latter part of the week reintroducing above normal temperatures to much of the West by the weekend (Days 7-8/Saturday-Sunday).

MD 1582 CONCERNING SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH UNLIKELY FOR NORTH-CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA INTO FAR SOUTHERN VIRGINIA
Mesoscale Discussion 1582 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0344 PM CDT Sun Jul 06 2025 Areas affected...north-central North Carolina into far southern Virginia Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely Valid 062044Z - 062215Z Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent SUMMARY...A brief tornado or strong wind gust will remain possible with the convection near the remnant core of TD Chantal. DISCUSSION...Afternoon imagery shows the remnants of TD Chantal located across portions of north-central NC near 34.4 deg N 79.2 deg W. Within the broader precip shield, a few deeper convective towers have remained strong with occasional cyclonic rotation observed. Enhanced low-level shear (0-1km SRH near 200 m2/s2) near the remnant center will remain strong enough to support occasional low-level mesocyclones with this convection. Despite weak buoyancy (MLCAPE (~500 J/kg) the moist surface environment and some deeper storms may remain capable of a brief tornado two and damaging gust into this evening. Widespread severe weather is not anticipated, and the interaction of the circulation with higher terrain to the west should slowly limit the threat tonight. ..Lyons.. 07/06/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
