Tropical Weather Outlook
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
1100 AM PDT Sun Jul 30 2023

For the eastern North Pacific...east of 140 degrees west longitude:

Offshore of Southern Mexico (EP96):
Showers and thunderstorms have become a little better organized in
association with an area of low pressure located to the south of the
southern coast of Mexico. Environmental conditions appear to be
favorable for gradual development, and a tropical depression is
likely to form early this week while the system moves
west-northwestward at near 15 mph, roughly parallel to the coasts of
southern and southwestern Mexico.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...high...70 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...high...90 percent.

Southwest of southern Baja California:
A small area of low pressure located about 1100 miles southwest of
the southern tip of Baja California is producing a few showers and
thunderstorms. Significant development of this system is unlikely
while it moves westward at 10 to 15 mph over the next couple of
days.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...low...10 percent.

SPC 1730Z Day 2 Outlook
Day 2 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1230 PM CDT Sun Jul 30 2023 Valid 311200Z - 011200Z ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF THE NORTHERN/CENTRAL PLAINS...LOWER/MID MISSISSIPPI VALLEY...COASTAL SOUTHEAST...AND SOUTHERN ARIZONA... ...SUMMARY... Isolated strong to severe thunderstorms capable of producing large hail and gusty winds appear possible Monday across parts of the northern/central Plains. Additional thunderstorms producing mainly strong to damaging winds may occur across parts of the lower/mid Mississippi Valley, coastal Southeast, and southern Arizona. ...Synopsis... An upper-level anticyclone will remain centered over the southern Plains Monday, with upper ridging extending northward over much of the Rockies and High Plains. Upper troughing will persist over much of eastern Canada and the Atlantic Coast states. A belt of enhanced mid-level northwesterly flow is forecast to persist from the northern Plains across the Midwest/OH Valley and parts of the Southeast. Surface high pressure will dominate over much of these regions as well, with a weak front forecast to be located along/near the central Gulf Coast northeastward to southeastern VA. Across the Plains, a surface trough should extend from eastern MT into eastern CO, with a reservoir of rich low-level moisture present to its east. ...Northern/Central Plains... Thunderstorms should form Monday afternoon over the higher terrain of the northern/central Rockies, and eventually develop eastward over the adjacent northern/central High Plains. One or more subtle mid-level vorticity maxima rotating around the upper ridge may aid this convective development. Greater low-level moisture and related instability is forecast to be present along/east of a weak surface trough across the High Plains. There will be some potential for initially high-based convection to gradually strengthen with eastward extent through Monday evening/night. Forecast deep-layer shear would support a mix of multicells and supercells with an associated threat for large hail and severe/damaging winds. However, considerable uncertainty remains regarding the number of supercells which may develop given weak/nebulous forcing aloft. Have therefore expanded the Marginal Risk to account for a range of possible solutions regarding convective evolution. ...Lower/Mid Mississippi Valley... Thunderstorms may be ongoing Monday morning across parts of MO and vicinity. This activity should be related to convection that is expected to develop during the Day 1 period across the northern/central High Plains, and subsequently spread southeastward overnight into early Monday morning. Modest low-level warm advection may also aid thunderstorm maintenance Monday morning. While details regarding convective evolution remain somewhat unclear, most guidance has come into general agreement that a small cluster will persist through the day as it moves south-southeastward across the lower/mid MS Valley. Moderate to strong instability should be in place ahead of this convection as daytime heating of a moist low-level airmass occurs. Although deep-layer shear should remain fairly modest, enough convective organization appears possible to support a cluster capable of producing mainly damaging winds through early Monday evening. ...Coastal Southeast... A rather moist low-level airmass should be in place ahead of a weak front across parts of the coastal Southeast states. Even though mid-level lapse rates will remain fairly poor, diurnal heating of this moist airmass will aid destabilization and steepening of low-level lapse rates by Monday afternoon. Thunderstorms that form across this region through the day may produce isolated damaging winds, with modest deep-layer shear aiding a mix of pulse and loosely organized multicell modes. This convection should diminish/move offshore Monday evening with the loss of daytime heating. ...Southern Arizona... Monsoonal moisture will likely remain across southern AZ on Monday. Convection should once again develop across the higher terrain of southeastern AZ during the afternoon. Modest easterly mid/upper-level flow should aid thunderstorms spreading eastward over the lower deserts through Monday evening. Isolated strong to severe wind gusts may occur with this activity, as very steep low/mid-level lapse rates aid efficient downdraft accelerations. ..Gleason.. 07/30/2023 Read more

MD 1779 CONCERNING SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 571... FOR EASTERN VIRGINIA INTO THE DELMARVA AND SOUTHERN NEW JERSEY
Mesoscale Discussion 1779 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0520 PM CDT Sat Jul 29 2023 Areas affected...Eastern Virginia into the Delmarva and southern New Jersey Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 571... Valid 292220Z - 292345Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 571 continues. SUMMARY...A damaging wind threat continues across eastern Virginia into the Delmarva and southern New Jersey. DISCUSSION...Storms developed across northern Virginia and central Maryland late this afternoon and quickly organized into a forward propagating squall line with numerous measured severe wind gusts over the past 1 to 2 hours. This line of storms has started to weaken with significant reduction in 9km MRMS CAPPI over the past hour. However, there is enough organization with this line of storms for continued damaging wind gusts and occasional severe wind gusts to the Atlantic Coast from southern New Jersey to southern Delaware. Farther southwest, additional convection has started to form along the front from near Blacksburg, Virginia to northeast Virginia. These storms are south of the better mid-level flow (~20 knots per RNK VWP vs 35-40 knots per LWX VWP) and therefore, storm organization may be a bit more transient. Nonetheless, significant instability (2000 to 2500 J/kg) and decent convergence along the cold front should be sufficient for a damaging wind threat as these storms move east through the evening. ..Bentley.. 07/29/2023 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

Valid 292156Z - 292330Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 570 continues. SUMMARY...A line of strong to severe storms with damaging wind gusts are expected to continue southeast through the evening. DISCUSSION...Moderate instability exists ahead of a line of storms now crossing the Appalachians across eastern Tennessee and far western North Carolina/Virginia. While shear is quite weak ahead of the line (15 to 20 knots) there is some stronger 4-5km flow (35-40 knots per JKL VWP) upstream. This stronger flow is likely aiding in organization of the storms and should continue to balance the cold pool sufficiently for a continued damaging wind threat through the evening. If this line of storms can maintain intensity and organization as it moves southeast this evening, a downstream watch may need to be considered across portions of western and central North Carolina. ..Bentley.. 07/29/2023 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

DISCUSSION...Storms have developed along the surface front near the Tennessee/Kentucky border west of watch 570. These storms have formed in a region with strong instability (2500 to 3000 J/kg MLCAPE) and weak effective shear (~15 knots per OHX VWP). The weak shear will likely limit overall organization with a more outflow dominant line expected. However, given the hot, moist, and unstable downstream environment, some stronger, water-loaded downdrafts are possible with some threat for damaging wind gusts. A severe thunderstorm watch is unlikely, unless the line of storms begins to show better organization and a greater threat for damaging wind gusts. ..Bentley/Grams.. 07/29/2023 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

Mesoscale Discussion 1776 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0348 PM CDT Sat Jul 29 2023 Areas affected...Southeast Wyoming into the Colorado Front Range Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible Valid 292048Z - 292245Z Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent SUMMARY...Strong/severe wind gusts will be the primary hazard with storm clusters moving off of the terrain. Large hail could occur with the strongest initial updrafts. A watch is possible later this afternoon. DISCUSSION...Modestly moist upslope flow into the terrain has allowed convection from the Front Range into the Laramie mountains to deepen over the last few hours. The moist layer is rather shallow (per DDC/AMA soundings this morning) and dewpoints have consequently mixed out into the upper 50s/low 60s F. Some capping remains on the Plains to the east as a result. However, moisture is also slightly higher than some guidance has suggested. With time and continued heating (likely upper 80s to perhaps lower 90s F), a few deeper updrafts will develop. Given the modest deep-layer shear (stronger north, weaker south) and large temperature/dewpoint spreads at the surface, outflow will be prevalent. Congealing cold pools will be the likely mechanism to drive storms out onto the Plains. The strongest storms would be capable of large hail initially, although strong/severe wind gusts are the primary hazard expected late this afternoon. A severe thunderstorm watch is possible this afternoon, but timing is uncertain as to when storms will move off of the terrain. ..Wendt/Thompson.. 07/29/2023 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
