Day 3 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0222 PM CDT Sat Sep 21 2024 Valid 231200Z - 241200Z ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE OZARKS TO THE OHIO VALLEY AND MID-SOUTH... ...SUMMARY... Isolated strong to severe thunderstorms are possible from the Ozarks to the Ohio Valley and Mid-South region on Monday. ...Synopsis... The mid-level trough over the Southwest on Saturday will start to be absorbed within the more broad westerlies on Monday as it moves into the Missouri region. As this occurs, a belt of mid-level flow will overspread the Ozarks to Ohio Valley region where a moist airmass is in place ahead of a synoptic cold front. This cold front will move slowly east through the period Monday. ...Ozarks to Ohio Valley Region... Extensive cloud-cover from overnight convection will likely limit warm-sector heating from northern Arkansas and southern Missouri to western Kentucky and southern Indiana on Monday. However, at least some breaks in the clouds should result in pockets of greater destabilization, particularly later in the day. Inhibition will be limited across the warm sector, so any areas with greater surface heating will likely convect given the moist airmass and weak height falls during the day. The lack of strong heating or any capping inversion should keep instability somewhat weak through the day and result in a mostly marginal severe threat despite moderate deep-layer shear. A few stronger storms are possible within this zone of weak instability and moderate shear which may pose a threat for large hail or damaging wind gusts. ..Bentley.. 09/21/2024 Read more

MD 2094 CONCERNING SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH LIKELY FOR PARTS OF EASTERN NEW MEXICO AND WEST TEXAS
Mesoscale Discussion 2094 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0115 PM CDT Sat Sep 21 2024 Areas affected...parts of eastern New Mexico and West Texas Concerning...Severe potential...Watch likely Valid 211815Z - 212015Z Probability of Watch Issuance...80 percent SUMMARY...Persistent upslope flow and daytime heating should allow for continued thunderstorm development early this afternoon over eastern NM. Gradual intensification/organization into supercells is expected. Large to very large hail, damaging gusts, and perhaps a couple of tornadoes are possible. A WW is likely needed. DISCUSSION...As of 1810 UTC, regional WV imagery showed a potent upper low quickly overspreading the southern Rockies and High Plains. Height falls and the approach of a 70 kt speed max will support fairly strong forcing for ascent over the region through the next several hours. Diurnal heating and low-level warm air advection over much of eastern NM and west TX will support moderate destabilization with 1500-2000 J/Kg of MLCAPE expected. In combination with the synoptic scale-forcing and continued upslope of low-60s F surface dewpoints, additional storm development is likely early this afternoon. As convection evolves, the strong mid-level flow aloft will also gradually overspread the area, supporting large effective shear. KFDX VAD data shows veering low and mid-level hodographs have expanded, with 45-50 kt of effective shear present. Storm organization into supercells is expected with time. Fairly steep mid-level lapse rates (~7-8 C/Km) and the semi-discrete mode suggest large to very large hail will be likely with the more robust supercells. Damaging winds and a couple of tornadoes are also possible, owing to the strengthening flow aloft, and enhanced low-level shear near a diffuse surface boundary. Short-term model guidance and observational trends suggest the ongoing convection should steadily increase in intensity/organization through the remainder of the afternoon. Additional storm development/intensification is also likely along the cold front across central NM later this afternoon, though timing remains somewhat uncertain. With the potential for all hazards across much of eastern NM and west TX, a WW appears likely in the next couple of hours. ..Lyons/Guyer.. 09/21/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
