SPC 0730Z Day 3 Outlook
Day 3 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0229 AM CDT Fri May 02 2025 Valid 041200Z - 051200Z ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS SOUTHEAST GEORGIA...EASTERN SOUTH CAROLINA...AND FAR SOUTHEAST NORTH CAROLINA... ...SUMMARY... A few strong to severe storms are possible across southeast Georgia, eastern South Carolina, and southeast North Carolina. ...Discussion... A mid-level low will become cut-off in the Ohio Valley vicinity on Sunday. This will result in only slow eastward advancement of the front along the East Coast. Weak to potentially moderate instability is expected to develop from southeast Georgia into eastern South Carolina and perhaps far southeast North Carolina. Storms are possible along the front and/or the sea breeze with perhaps a greater threat if these boundaries collide. Mid-level flow should be sufficiently strong for some storm organization including potential for a supercell or two. Any severe threat will be mostly diurnal and wane by late evening. Warm mid-level temperatures should keep storms mostly suppressed across Florida. A mid-level low will advance east across the Southwest on Sunday with some troughing anticipated across the southern High Plains. Strengthening southeasterly flow across Texas will advect Gulf moisture west into the Trans Pecos. A supercell is possible in the vicinity of the Davis Mountains Sunday afternoon/evening, but it is unclear whether sufficient destabilization will occur to support this threat. Therefore, no marginal risk has been added at this time. ..Bentley.. 05/02/2025 Read more

SPC Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook
Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0140 AM CDT Fri May 02 2025 Valid 031200Z - 041200Z ...Synopsis... Fire weather concerns will continue to be focused across the Southwest as isolated to scattered thunderstorms develop through late Saturday afternoon. Upper ridging is expected to spread across the High Plains through the day as an upper wave begins to approach the West Coast. Southerly low/mid-level flow ahead of the upper wave will help maintain a modestly moist air mass (characterized by 0.4 to 0.6 inch PWAT values) across the Southwest into the Great Basin. Increasing broad scale ascent, coupled with antecedent steep mid-level lapse rates, will promote isolated thunderstorms from central NM to central NV by late afternoon. Limited moisture throughout the column combined with deep boundary layers will act to limit precipitation amounts and support dry lightning strikes. While this potential is noted across a broad swath of the region, the fire weather threat will be greatest across eastern AZ into NM where fuel conditions are currently the driest per recent fuel and drought guidance. ..Moore.. 05/02/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product...

SPC Day 1 Fire Weather Outlook
Day 1 Fire Weather Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1255 AM CDT Fri May 02 2025 Valid 021200Z - 031200Z ...Synopsis... Fire weather concerns are expected to remain confined to the Southwest for today, and will mainly manifest as a dry-thunderstorm risk across parts of far eastern Arizona into central New Mexico. Early-morning water vapor imagery shows a weak upper low over the southern CA coast. This feature is expected to drift east over the next 24 hours, reaching AZ/NM by peak heating this afternoon. Steep mid-level lapse rates and modest mid-level moisture were sampled by the FGZ and ABQ 00z soundings, which should be adequate for weak convection this afternoon as ascent overspreads the region. Deep, well-mixed boundary layers between 2-3 km deep, coupled with PWAT values of 0.6 inches or less, should promote relatively dry thunderstorms from central AZ to central NM. Latest fuel and drought guidance shows sufficiently dry conditions across eastern AZ into NM to support fire ignitions from dry lightning strikes. South of the dry thunderstorm risk area, 10-15 mph southerly winds coupled with RH values in the teens will promote pockets of elevated fire weather conditions. ..Moore.. 05/02/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product...
