SPC 1630Z Day 1 Outlook
Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1104 AM CDT Tue Jul 01 2025 Valid 011630Z - 021200Z ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PARTS OF THE MID-ATLANTIC REGION AND ACROSS WESTERN PORTIONS OF NEBRASKA AND SOUTH DAKOTA... ...SUMMARY... Scattered strong to severe storms are possible across parts of the Mid-Atlantic into the Northeast this afternoon/evening. A few severe thunderstorms are possible over western parts of Nebraska and South Dakota. ...Mid-Atlantic into the Northeast... Recent satellite imagery shows a well-defined shortwave trough extending from western QC through the middle OH Valley into the Mid MS Valley. Regional radar imagery depicts showers and thunderstorms preceding this wave from across the mid/upper OH Valley, with the stronger storms occurring along an associated cold front that extends from far western NY southwestward across western PA and along the WV/OH border through eastern KY. The general expectation throughout the day is for this shortwave trough and associated cold front to progress eastward into the increasingly moist and unstable airmass downstream, promoting widespread thunderstorm development this afternoon. Moderate mid-level flow extends through the eastern periphery of this wave, with the strongest flow (i.e. around 40 kt at 500 mb) expected to move across NY and New England. Given the more northern trajectory of the stronger flow, there will be limited overlap between the strongest flow and the better buoyancy, which will remain farther south across the Mid-Atlantic. Even so, the overall environment will support some organization of storms into line segments/clusters. Scattered thunderstorms will increase in coverage with time and numerous thunderstorms are expected by mid-late afternoon while moving east from PA/WV in NJ/VA/MD. Recently issued MCD #1529 also addresses the severe potential in this region. More limited storm coverage is anticipated farther north. Strong to severe gusts (50-65 mph) are possible with the stronger downdrafts. ...Black Hills/SD into the Central High Plains... A weak shortwave trough is currently progressing through eastern MT and eastern WY, throughout the northern periphery of the upper ridging that extends from the southern Plains through the northern Rockies. This wave is forecast to continue eastward/southeastward, eventually interacting with the moderate low-level moisture expected to advect northward across western portions of KS, NE and SD. Ascent attendant to this wave will augment low-level convergence near an associated surface low to foster afternoon thunderstorm development. Low-level southerly flow veering to northwesterly aloft will foster moderate effective shear (i.e. 30 to 40 kt) and the potential for a couple of supercells. Large hail will be the primary risk with these storms. Some additional thunderstorms are possible later tonight across far southern ND and central/eastern SD as a strengthening low-level jet contributes to warm-air advection across a developing warm frontal zone. Moderate shear and steep mid-level lapse rates will support a few stronger storms capable of producing isolated large hail. ...Central Appalachians into the Southeast... Afternoon thunderstorms are expected across a large area from the central Appalachians and Carolinas southwestward into the Southeast, along or just ahead of a weak, eastward-progressing cold front. Limited vertical shear should promote less organized storms, although a few strong, water-loaded downdrafts capable of producing damaging winds are possible. ..Mosier/Karstens.. 07/01/2025 Read more

Hurricane Flossie Forecast Discussion Number 10

2 months 1 week ago
Issued at 900 AM CST Tue Jul 01 2025 477 WTPZ41 KNHC 011438 TCDEP1 Hurricane Flossie Discussion Number 10 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP062025 900 AM CST Tue Jul 01 2025 Flossie is still intensifying, with conventional satellite imagery showing a curved band pattern with cloud tops colder than -80C and a formative eye. In addition, recent microwave overpasses show an eye and eyewall present under the convective overcast. The latest subjective and objective satellite intensity estimates are generally in the 75-85 kt range, and based on current trends the initial intensity is set at 85 kt. The initial motion is 305/9 kt. A general northwestward to west-northwestward motion with some decrease in forward speed is expected during the next 3-4 days as Flossie moves toward a weakness in the subtropical ridge. After that time, the cyclone or its remnants is forecast to turn westward as they become steered more by the low-level flow. The new forecast track, which generally splits the difference between the HCCA corrected consensus and the other consensus models, is a little north of the previous forecast through 72 h and a little south of the previous track after that time. The wind shear and moisture are forecast to be favorable for strengthening as long as Flossie remains over warm water. While the hurricane is starting to move over decreasing sea surface temperatures, the intensity guidance suggests it will take about 24 h to reach water cold enough to stop intensification. Based on this, the new intensity forecast calls for another 24 h of strengthening. After that, Flossie is expected to rapidly weaken, with the system becoming post-tropical by 72 h and a remnant low by 96 h. The forecast is near the high end of the intensity guidance for the first 36 h and near the intensity consensus for the rest of the forecast period. KEY MESSAGES: 1. Outer bands of Hurricane Flossie should continue to bring locally heavy rainfall to coastal portions of the Mexican states of Michoacán, Colima, and Jalisco into Wednesday. Localized flash flooding is possible. 2. Tropical storm conditions are expected in portions of the tropical storm warning area in southwestern Mexico for the next several hours.

Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0747 AM CDT Tue Jul 01 2025 Valid 011300Z - 021200Z ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PARTS OF THE MID-ATLANTIC REGION AND ACROSS WESTERN PORTIONS OF NEBRASKA AND SOUTH DAKOTA... ...SUMMARY... Scattered strong to severe storms are possible across parts of the Mid-Atlantic into the Northeast this afternoon/evening. A few severe thunderstorms are possible over western parts of Nebraska and South Dakota. ...Mid-Atlantic states into the Northeast and Southeast... Water-vapor imagery this morning indicates an upper trough is moving east across the Great Lakes/lower OH Valley and other minor perturbations are located over the Mid South. The primary disturbance will overspread the Appalachians by mid-late evening. In the low levels, a cold front analyzed over the southern Great Lakes into the lower OH Valley/Mid South will gradually progress east/southeast during the period. 12 UTC raob data from the OH Valley and Mid South eastward to the Mid-Atlantic region shows a very moist troposphere with limited 700-500 mb lapse rates (less than 5.5 deg C/km). Nonetheless, diurnal heating of the moist boundary layer will result in moderate buoyancy from portions of the Northeast southwestward through the Mid-Atlantic states and into the Southeast. Models continue to indicate modest southwesterly mid-level flow across the Mid-Atlantic states will contribute to adequate shear, supporting some organization of storms into line segments/clusters. Scattered thunderstorms will increase in coverage with time and numerous thunderstorms are expected by mid-late afternoon while moving east across PA/WV/VA/MD. Strong to severe gusts (50-65 mph) are possible with the stronger downdrafts. Less organized but scattered to numerous storms are forecast farther southwest into portions of the southern Appalachians with a risk for damaging gusts with the stronger storms. Strong-severe convection should spread off the Middle Atlantic Coast during the evening. ...Black Hills into the central High Plains... A weak mid-level disturbance is moving east across northern WY/southern MT towards the SD/NE vicinity later today. A weak lee trough will likely serve as a focus for thunderstorm development this afternoon from near the Black Hills southward into northeast CO. Forecast soundings show around 30-kt effective shear in the presence of steep lapse rates and moderate MLCAPE (1000-2500 J/kg). Some of the recent MPAS guidance indicates a few stronger thunderstorms will develop across western NE and perhaps into western SD. A couple of supercells with an attendant large-hail risk are possible, thereby prompting an increase in hail probabilities this outlook update. Some severe risk may linger into the mid-late evening coincident with a strengthening of a southerly LLJ centered over west-central NE before this activity dissipates. ..Smith/Broyles.. 07/01/2025 Read more
