SPC 1300Z Day 1 Outlook
Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0759 AM CDT Wed Aug 11 2021 Valid 111300Z - 121200Z ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PORTIONS OF WISCONSIN/LOWER MICHIGAN AND NORTHERN ILLINOIS... ...SUMMARY... Severe thunderstorms are likely across the Midwest and Great Lakes, especially across portions of Wisconsin, Illinois, and Michigan this afternoon and evening. Isolated strong to severe storms capable of wind gusts will also be possible across parts of the central/northern Appalachians and Mid-Atlantic states. ...Midwest/Great Lakes... After an active Tuesday, another severe storm-favorable setup is in place across the region again today, with a more notable influence today of stronger winds aloft and more appreciable forcing for ascent (by mid-summer standards) as compared to yesterday, particularly for northern portions of Illinois/Indiana northward into Wisconsin/Michigan. An initial early day concern is an upscale-growing cluster of storms from far northeast Missouri into west/northwest Illinois. These storms are poorly resolved by various short-term guidance. Low-level jet and warm advection abatement along with mid-level cap reestablishment could be storm detrimental as the morning wears on, although eastward persistence across parts of northern Illinois into northern Indiana is plausible if not probable given the increasingly extensive mass of storms (potential cold pool ramifications) and expected downstream destabilization associated with a very moist environment and relatively cloud-free skies for robust insolation. Farther north, storms may gradually increase in coverage/intensify across the western half of Wisconsin this morning, with the possibility that elevated early day storms become increasingly surface-based by midday/early afternoon as they become coupled with a very unstable boundary layer across south-central/east-central/northeast Wisconsin. Although details of the evolution are a bit uncertain (including the westward extent of development across southwest Wisconsin/northeast Iowa), the aforementioned parts of southern/eastern Wisconsin will be of key concern for an appreciably increasing severe potential by mid/late afternoon near the east/southeastward-advancing cold front. A very strong belt of cyclonic westerlies (50+ kt) for the season will support some initial intense supercells capable of large hail and potentially a tornado risk, even with an increasingly westerly component of the near-surface winds. Storms should further increase/organize through the late afternoon and early evening as they likely grow upscale and move east-southeastward across southeast Wisconsin/northern Illinois into Lower Michigan and possibly northern Indiana. This will likely result in an appreciable increase in wind damage potential, especially in light of the seasonally strong low/mid-level winds and reservoir of ample moisture and strong buoyancy. Overall storm intensity/wind damage potential is expected to diminish overnight. ...Upper Ohio Valley/Appalachians to Mid-Atlantic States... Initially, an ongoing early day storm cluster across northern Ohio may persist east-southeastward today into an increasing unstable environment, with wind damage the main severe potential. Otherwise, modestly strong and weakly cyclonic mid/upper-level flow in conjunction with moderate to strong instability will support multiple zones of eastward-moving storm clusters into this afternoon and evening. A diurnal steepening of low-level lapse rates will support stronger updrafts/downdrafts by afternoon, with the strongest storms capable of wind damage and possibly a few instances of marginally severe hail. ..Guyer/Mosier.. 08/11/2021 Read more

SPC 1300Z Day 1 Outlook
Day 1 Convective Outlook CORR 1 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0809 AM CDT Tue Aug 10 2021 Valid 101300Z - 111200Z ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF IOWA/WISCONSIN/ILLINOIS... CORRECTED TEXT ...SUMMARY... Severe thunderstorms capable of wind damage and isolated large hail will be possible across a broad portion of the Midwest and Great Lakes region, especially this afternoon and evening. Locally severe wind gusts will also be possible in parts of the Ohio Valley and central Appalachians/Northeast States. ...Midwest/Great Lakes... Severe thunderstorms will be possible across a relatively broad region mainly this afternoon and evening, with damaging winds and isolated instances of large hail as the primary hazards. That said, short-term guidance remains highly variable in terms of preferred corridors/timing of severe storms, with multiple scenarios plausible within a strongly unstable/weakly forced regime. A prominent shortwave trough over North Dakota/Manitoba will continue east-northeastward today toward northern Ontario, with a secondary shortwave trough digging southeastward over the Canadian Prairies in its wake. The most appreciable forcing for ascent will be focused near the international border/Lake Superior vicinity, although a moderately strong (by August standards) belt of mid-level westerlies and weak/subtle height falls will influence areas as far south as Iowa/northern Missouri and Illinois. Owing to advection and evapotranspiration, somewhat higher moisture content (more extensive mid/upper 70s F surface dewpoints) is expected within the warm sector as compared to yesterday, with 4000-5500 J/kg MLCAPE expected by peak heating in areas including southern/eastern Iowa and northern Missouri into much of Illinois/Indiana and southern/eastern Wisconsin. Where storms do develop, robust instability and modest deep-layer shear, which will be maximized near the weak boundary across Iowa into southern Wisconsin, will support severe storms including some initial supercells. Such development appears most likely to initially occur across southern/eastern Iowa into southern Wisconsin/far northwest Illinois during the mid/late afternoon. Farther south, other storms could increase/intensify across northern/central Missouri toward southern Illinois today as a byproduct of early day ongoing storms across far northeast Kansas, although mid-level capping with southward extent and a lack of an overt MCV casts uncertainty on this scenario. Damaging winds should the most common risk overall, particularly with the potential for quasi-linear upscale growth this evening across eastern Iowa/southern Wisconsin into Illinois/northeast Missouri. However, isolated large hail and possibly some tornado risk will be possible with the initial supercellular development that is possible mainly across southern/eastern Iowa into Wisconsin/northwest Illinois late this afternoon and early evening. ...Ohio Valley to Northeast States/Central Appalachians... Multiple clusters of storms are expected to persist and/or develop eastward today, with a diurnal intensification into this afternoon as the boundary layer destabilizes. Although deep-layer winds will be weak, a moist/unstable air mass across a broad region will support the possibility of locally severe storms capable of wind damage. ..Guyer/Mosier.. 08/10/2021 Read more

Tropical Storm Kevin Forecast Discussion Number 12

3 years 11 months ago
Issued at 300 AM MDT Tue Aug 10 2021 000 WTPZ41 KNHC 100844 TCDEP1 Tropical Storm Kevin Discussion Number 12 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP112021 300 AM MDT Tue Aug 10 2021 Deep convection associated with Kevin is still displaced well south and southwest of its exposed low-level center by strong northeasterly vertical wind shear. Recent scatterometer data indicate that the center is elongated from northeast to southwest, and the tropical-storm-force winds are confined to the southern semicircle of the cyclone. Based on several 35-kt wind vectors noted in the latest scatterometer passes, the initial intensity is held at 40 kt for this advisory. Satellite imagery indicates that Kevin has taken a northward jog overnight, and its estimated initial motion is now northwest or 305/8 kt. A general northwestward to west-northwestward motion is expected over the next several days as Kevin moves along the southwestern periphery of a deep-layer ridge. Based on the initial motion adjustment and guidance trends, the official NHC forecast track has been adjusted northward from the previous one, although it still lies a little to the south of the TVCE and HCCA aids. Moderate to strong northeasterly wind shear is forecast to persist over Kevin for the next day or so, which should limit its ability to strengthen despite favorable SSTs and abundant mid-level moisture. By the time that the wind shear diminishes, the cyclone will be passing over much cooler waters in a drier, more stable environment. Thus, little change in strength is expected in the near-term, followed by weakening beginning on Wednesday. Overall, the latest NHC intensity forecast remains near the multi-model consensus. By 72 h, GFS and ECMWF model simulated satellite imagery suggest that Kevin will be devoid of organized convection, and so the official NHC forecast shows Kevin as a remnant low at that time.

DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK ---------------------- At 300 AM MDT (0900 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Kevin was located near latitude 18.1 North, longitude 113.3 West. Kevin is moving toward the northwest near 8 mph (13 km/h). A northwestward or west-northwestward motion with little change in forward speed is expected over the next several days. Satellite-derived wind data indicate that maximum sustained winds remain near 45 mph (75 km/h) with higher gusts. Little change in strength is forecast during the next day or so, followed by gradual weakening beginning on Wednesday. Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 175 miles (280 km) from the center, primarily in the southern semicircle. The estimated minimum central pressure is 1003 mb (29.62 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- SURF: Swells generated by Kevin are affecting portions of the coast of southwestern Mexico, and will spread northward along the coast of Baja California Sur today. These swells are likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions. Please consult products from your local weather office.

An ASCAT-B pass around 0330 UTC revealed that the low has developed a well-defined center and is producing 25 to 30-kt winds, with some higher wind vectors flagged as rain contaminated within the deep convection occurring to the south and west of the center. The system has become sufficiently organized to be classified as a tropical depression, and its initial intensity is set at 30 kt for this advisory. The estimated motion of the depression is west-northwest, or 290/7 kt. The system is expected to generally move west-northwestward to westward over the next several days, as it is steered by a ridge to its north and northeast. This track is roughly parallel to, but well offshore of, the southwestern coast of Mexico. The track guidance is in reasonably good agreement, and the official NHC forecast lies near the center of the guidance envelope. The depression is located in a moist, unstable environment with ample oceanic heat content to fuel strengthening during the next few days. However, moderate to strong northerly vertical wind shear will likely prevent rapid intensification of this system in the short term. Nonetheless, the intensity guidance unanimously supports strengthening, and this system is likely to become a tropical storm later today. Continued strengthening is forecast through the rest of the week and into the weekend, and the cyclone could reach hurricane strength by Thursday. The official NHC intensity forecast generally follows the IVCN consensus aid and shows the system's intensity peaking on days 4 and 5, when the wind shear is forecast to diminish while the cyclone remains over warm SSTs.
