SUMMARY OF 200 AM MST...0900 UTC...INFORMATION ---------------------------------------------- LOCATION...17.6N 106.8W ABOUT 190 MI...305 KM WSW OF MANZANILLO MEXICO MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS...35 MPH...55 KM/H PRESENT MOVEMENT...WNW OR 290 DEGREES AT 15 MPH...24 KM/H MINIMUM CENTRAL PRESSURE...1007 MB...29.74 INCHES WATCHES AND WARNINGS -------------------- There are no coastal watches or warnings in effect. Interests in southwestern Mexico and Baja California Sur should monitor the progress of this system. A Tropical Storm Watch could be required for portions of Baja California Sur later today or on Wednesday. DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK ---------------------- At 200 AM MST (0900 UTC), the center of Tropical Depression Twelve-E was located near latitude 17.6 North, longitude 106.8 West. The depression is moving toward the west-northwest near 15 mph (24 km/h), and a gradual turn toward the northwest and north-northwest with a decrease in forward speed is expected over the next couple of days. Maximum sustained winds are near 35 mph (55 km/h) with higher gusts. Strengthening is forecast, and the system will likely become a tropical storm later today. The estimated minimum central pressure is 1007 mb (29.74 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- RAINFALL: Areas of heavy rainfall well east and northeast of the depression will continue to impact portions of northwestern Mexico from the states of Colima to Sinaloa today, with isolated flash flooding possible in areas of mountainous terrain. Bands of heavy rainfall are expected to begin impacting Baja California Sur by Wednesday and potentially persist through Saturday, with rainfall totals of 4 to 8 inches possible across portions of the area. Uncertainty remains with these totals, and locally higher or lower amounts are possible depending on the track and strength of the system. Potentially significant flash flooding is a possibility.

Day 4-8 Outlook
Day 4-8 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0334 AM CDT Tue Sep 02 2025 Valid 051200Z - 101200Z ...DISCUSSION... A pronounced mid-level trough will progress across the Northeast late this week, ejecting into the Atlantic by the end of the weekend. Thereafter, a more progressive pattern will ensue, with multiple mid-level shortwave troughs poised to traverse the CONUS early into the middle of next week. Despite differences among medium-range guidance members, there is general agreement that a surface cold front will encounter seasonal low-level moisture across the eastern U.S. Days 4-5 (Friday-Saturday), promoting thunderstorm potential (some of which may be strong). However, any severe threat accompanying these storms is expected to be localized and isolated. Surface high pressure will then become established from the MS River Valley eastward, allowing for moisture return across the Plains states by next week. Nonetheless, overall forcing for ascent, along with buoyancy, are expected to be weak over the Plains next week, with severe potential currently appearing low. Read more

Day 3 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0224 AM CDT Tue Sep 02 2025 Valid 041200Z - 051200Z ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PORTIONS OF THE CENTRAL APPALACHIANS... ...SUMMARY... A few strong to potentially severe gusts may accompany a band of thunderstorms across parts of the central Appalachians on Thursday. ...Synopsis... Broad cyclonic flow will overspread much of the central and eastern CONUS on Thursday. Through the period, a mid-level impulse will pivot around the broader cyclonic flow into Quebec while an even more potent embedded mid-level trough rapidly amplifies over the Midwest. As a result, a surface cold front will rapidly surge eastward over the Appalachians and impinge on the East Coast, where seasonal low-level moisture will be in place to support an extensive band of thunderstorms. Given overlapping buoyancy and vertical wind shear, a few storms may be strong to severe. ...Central Appalachians... The cold front will surge to the east during the late morning into early afternoon hours, encountering low 60s F dewpoints over the central Appalachians. Tropospheric lapse rates should be poor, yielding thin MLCAPE profiles in the 500-1000 J/kg range. The lack of stronger buoyancy should limit the severe threat to a degree. Nonetheless, strengthening and veering of the 850-500 mb flow with height will encourage curved/elongated hodographs with 40-50 kts of effective bulk shear. A broken squall line should develop ahead of the cold front, perhaps with transient rotating cells, capable of mainly damaging gusts, warranting the introduction of Category 1/Marginal risk probabilities. ..Squitieri.. 09/02/2025 Read more

SPC 0730Z Day 3 Outlook
Day 3 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0224 AM CDT Tue Sep 02 2025 Valid 041200Z - 051200Z ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PORTIONS OF THE CENTRAL APPALACHIANS... ...SUMMARY... A few strong to potentially severe gusts may accompany a band of thunderstorms across parts of the central Appalachians on Thursday. ...Synopsis... Broad cyclonic flow will overspread much of the central and eastern CONUS on Thursday. Through the period, a mid-level impulse will pivot around the broader cyclonic flow into Quebec while an even more potent embedded mid-level trough rapidly amplifies over the Midwest. As a result, a surface cold front will rapidly surge eastward over the Appalachians and impinge on the East Coast, where seasonal low-level moisture will be in place to support an extensive band of thunderstorms. Given overlapping buoyancy and vertical wind shear, a few storms may be strong to severe. ...Central Appalachians... The cold front will surge to the east during the late morning into early afternoon hours, encountering low 60s F dewpoints over the central Appalachians. Tropospheric lapse rates should be poor, yielding thin MLCAPE profiles in the 500-1000 J/kg range. The lack of stronger buoyancy should limit the severe threat to a degree. Nonetheless, strengthening and veering of the 850-500 mb flow with height will encourage curved/elongated hodographs with 40-50 kts of effective bulk shear. A broken squall line should develop ahead of the cold front, perhaps with transient rotating cells, capable of mainly damaging gusts, warranting the introduction of Category 1/Marginal risk probabilities. ..Squitieri.. 09/02/2025 Read more

Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0156 AM CDT Tue Sep 02 2025 Valid 031200Z - 041200Z ...Synopsis... As the upper-level low continues to shift northward through D2/Wednesday, the isolated dry thunderstorms chances will continue across northern California into central Oregon, southern Washington, and western Idaho. Storm motions will decrease but coverage and moisture may also decrease with more isolated lingering activity expected. An isolated dry thunderstorm area was maintained with this outlook to cover this potential. ..Thornton.. 09/02/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product... Read more
