Day 4-8 Outlook
Day 4-8 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0355 AM CDT Tue May 06 2025 Valid 091200Z - 141200Z ...DISCUSSION... Late this week, an elongated upper trough from the Southeast into the Northeast will evolve into a cutoff low centered roughly on the Gulf Coast with stronger cyclonic flow remaining in the Northeast. An upper-level ridge will continue to build in the West and Plains and shift eastward into early next week. With the weak upper low near the Gulf, this will spur repeated days of convection across part of the Southeast and Florida. It is possible low-end severe potential will exist with some of this activity until low/mid-level lapse rates become poor. However, substantive severe threats are not expected. With the ridge building over the cutoff low, it will be slow to move eastward. Model guidance suggests that this feature will reach the East Coast around the middle of next week. At the same time, a strong upper trough is expected to move into the West. Moisture return into the Plains will begin as the trough moves eastward. That said, at least a few days worth of offshore flow in the western Gulf will likely limit the initial quality of that moisture return. The potential for severe weather with the incoming western trough remains uncertain at this point in time. Read more

MD 0710 CONCERNING TORNADO WATCH 229... FOR PARTS OF THE TX PERMIAN BASIN/EDWARDS PLATEAU
Mesoscale Discussion 0710 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0233 AM CDT Tue May 06 2025 Areas affected...Parts of the TX Permian Basin/Edwards Plateau Concerning...Tornado Watch 229... Valid 060733Z - 060900Z The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 229 continues. SUMMARY...Tornadoes remain possible near/south of the warm front. Otherwise, a threat for large hail and localized severe gusts will continue. DISCUSSION...Extensive convection is ongoing early this morning across parts of the TX Permian Basin and Edwards Plateau. While the mode has become complex, a few supercells have persisted, with a recent report of 2.5 inch hail in Crane County, TX. Convection may continue to increase in coverage overnight, in response to an eastward-moving mid/upper-level cyclone over the Southwest and related strong low-level jet. Moderate to strong instability and very favorable deep-layer shear will continue to support supercell potential overnight, though some continued clustering of storms is possible, especially along an eastward moving cold front. Large to very large hail and localized severe gusts will continue to be a threat overnight with the strongest storms. The environment remains conditionally favorable for tornadoes near/south of a northwest-to-southeast oriented warm front, with substantial low-level SRH continuing to be noted in the KDFX VWP. Thus far, storms have tended to quickly move to the cool side of the front and become elevated. However, it remains possible that ongoing developing convection west of Del Rio could evolve into a supercell that would pose a tornado threat in addition to the hail/wind potential. Storms near the intersection of the warm front and eastward-moving cold front/outflow could also pose some embedded tornado potential. With some severe threat likely to persist beyond the 4 AM CDT expiration time of WW 229, local watch extension and/or new watch issuance will be possible later this morning. ..Dean/Guyer.. 05/06/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
