SPC 1630Z Day 1 Outlook
Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1125 AM CDT Sat Apr 29 2023 Valid 291630Z - 301200Z ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON INTO TONIGHT ACROSS FL AND SOUTH GA... ...SUMMARY... Two rounds of severe thunderstorms, with damaging winds, large hail, and a coup[e of tornadoes, are possible across parts of Florida and southern Georgia this afternoon, and again overnight. ...FL area through tonight... A large cluster of thunderstorms over the northeast Gulf of Mexico appears to be developing into an MCS, in advance of a pronounced midlevel shortwave trough over the northwest Gulf coast. The developing MCS is expected to progress east-northeastward over central/north FL later this afternoon/evening, along and south of a stalled front. Boundary-layer dewpoints near 70 F and surface heating in cloud breaks will result in destabilization sufficient to maintain the MCS and an attendant threat for damaging winds late this afternoon. Aside from the MCS, cyclogenesis appears likely near the Southeast Atlantic coast along the stalled front by tonight, as the Gulf of Mexico shortwave trough begins to phase with a deep low over the Great Lakes. There will be some threat for additional storm development overnight in association with the primary Gulf of Mexico shortwave trough and cold front, in the wake of the afternoon MCS. Wind profiles will strengthen with time tonight with the approach of the shortwave trough and cyclogenesis. However, the main concern overnight will be any reductions in moisture/buoyancy by today's convection. Other storms may form this afternoon along the Atlantic coast sea breeze from southeast into east central FL. MLCAPE in excess of 2500 J/kg and effective bulk shear of 35-50 kt (driven by relatively weak low-level flow and stronger flow aloft) will support the potential for organized/supercell storms with the potential to produce isolated large hail and damaging winds. ...Coastal Carolinas late this afternoon into tonight... The surface warm/moist sector will remain near the Atlantic coast this afternoon, and an isolated strong storm may form along the boundary this afternoon in southern NC. By tonight, there will be a gradual increase in vertical shear in response to cyclogenesis, as well as the possibility of a remnant MCV emerging from the Gulf of Mexico MCS. There will be a conditional threat for organized/supercell storms, though the details of thunderstorm coverage/evolution will depend on the future influence of the Gulf of Mexico convection, which is still uncertain this far northeast. ..Thompson/Smith.. 04/29/2023 Read more

SPC 2000Z Day 1 Outlook
Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0300 PM CDT Fri Apr 28 2023 Valid 282000Z - 291200Z ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF CENTRAL TO SOUTH-CENTRAL TEXAS... ...SUMMARY... Destructive hail (some at least as large as baseballs), thunderstorm gusts potentially exceeding 75 mph, and a couple tornadoes remain possible this afternoon and evening from north Texas southwestward into south-central Texas. ...20Z Update... The northern extent of the Enhanced Risk (across north TX) has been trimmed with this update. Intense convection, including a supercell, has recently developed along/just south of the surface triple point in central TX. Although a left-splitting supercell or two remains possible, it appears that the greater concentration of severe hail/wind will remain generally south of the Metroplex. Very large hail and a tornado remain a possibility with any supercell that can remain at least semi-discrete. The damaging wind threat will increase as convection eventually grows upscale into an MCS later this afternoon and evening, with some potential for isolated significant severe gusts. Otherwise, only minor changes have been made to the Marginal Risk across NC, based on recent surface observations showing a stalled wedge front draped east-west across much of the state. This area may have a somewhat better chance for an organized thunderstorm or two given a favorable combination of instability and deep-layer shear. But, confidence in any more than an isolated severe hail/wind threat remains too low to increase severe probabilities. See Mesoscale Discussion 649 for more information on the short-term threat for isolated wind/hail across the central Appalachians and vicinity, and Mesoscale Discussion 650 for more details regarding the isolated severe threat across NC. ..Gleason.. 04/28/2023 .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 1125 AM CDT Fri Apr 28 2023/ ...TX this afternoon through tonight... A midlevel shortwave trough over the southern High Plains will continue eastward over central TX this afternoon/evening, as an accompanying cold front likewise surges southeastward. Low-level moisture return is underway from south into central and north TX, with boundary-layer dewpoints in the 65-70 F range from Waco southward as of 16z. Strong surface heating/mixing is expected along the western fringe of the returning moisture, near a remnant lee trough/dryline across the Edwards Plateau, prior to being overtaken by the cold front later this afternoon/evening. The surface heating, in combination with strengthening forcing for ascent along the cold front (with the approach of the midlevel trough) will support thunderstorm development by mid afternoon across central/north TX. The increasing low-level moisture and surface heating, beneath midlevel lapse rates in excess of 8 C/km, will result in large buoyancy in the warm sector this afternoon (MLCAPE greater than 2500 J/kg). Thermodynamic profiles will favor both strong updrafts and strong downdrafts, while wind profiles will become favorable for supercells as hodographs lengthen. There will be a window of opportunity for a couple of tornadoes from about 20-22z near the path of the surface wave along the cold front, where the stronger low-level shear/hodograph curvature will coincide with the north edge of the richer low-level moisture (a little south to southwest of the DFW area). The initial convection will likely be supercells with the aforementioned tornado potential, as well as very large hail near 3 inches in diameter. Forcing for ascent along the front will support upscale growth into more linear convection by this evening into central/south central TX. Isolated very large hail will be possible with any semi-discrete supercells, along with an increase in the potential for damaging outflow gusts (a few of which could reach or exceed 75 mph). The storms will continue southeastward overnight to the middle and lower TX coasts. ...OH Valley to the Southeast this afternoon... The trailing influence of a midlevel trough will move over OH/WV this afternoon, along with weak surface reflections. A few cloud breaks will allow modest surface heating, and destabilization could become sufficient for isolated strong storms with some hail/wind this afternoon. The trailing (southeast) influence of the midlevel trough, and a slow-moving wedge front, could focus a few strong storms this afternoon across NC. Farther south, the remnants of an overnight MCS are moving over central FL. Lingering clouds have slow surface heating in central FL, and the better chances for isolated strong storms with wind/hail will be in the zones of stronger surface heating across southeast FL with the sea breeze, and closer to the FL/GA border.

SPC Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook
Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0234 PM CDT Fri Apr 28 2023 Valid 291200Z - 301200Z The current D2 Fire Outlook is on track with no updates needed. See previous discussion below. ..Thornton.. 04/28/2023 .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 0200 AM CDT Fri Apr 28 2023/ ...Synopsis... Elevated fire weather conditions are expected across parts of the central Plains Saturday afternoon. A deepening low over the upper MS Valley will strengthen the regional pressure gradient over much of the central and northern Plains. Northerly winds between 15 to 25 mph are expected, with gusts as high as 35-40 mph possible. Diurnal warming will allow for RH reductions into the 20-30% range from SD into NE and northern KS. One mitigating factor is fuel status, as recent analyses suggest 10-hour dead-fuel moisture values are generally above 15% after recent rainfall. Consequently, the Elevated risk area is confined to locations where the potential for periods of critical conditions best overlaps with QPE minimums. However, refinements to this risk area are possible as fine fuels respond to dry conditions over the next 24 hours. ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product... Read more

SPC 1730Z Day 2 Outlook
Day 2 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1229 PM CDT Fri Apr 28 2023 Valid 291200Z - 301200Z ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS MUCH OF NORTH/CENTRAL FLORIDA AND SOUTHERN GEORGIA... ...SUMMARY... Scattered severe thunderstorms should occur across parts of the Southeast Saturday into Saturday night, with the greatest threat currently expected across much of north/central Florida into southern Georgia. A few tornadoes and scattered damaging winds will be the primary threats, with some large hail also possible. ...Southeast... An MCS should be well established over the western Gulf of Mexico at the start of the period Saturday morning. Most guidance indicates this bowing complex will maintain its structure and integrity through the day as it moves quickly eastward. By late Saturday afternoon into early evening, the MCS should impact much of the FL Panhandle into the northern/central FL Peninsula. Ahead of the approaching MCS, low-level moisture will attempt to return northward across FL into southern GA, as an upper trough pivots quickly eastward from the southern Plains over the lower MS Valley and Southeast. Moderate instability should be in place along/south of an effective marine warm front, with strong deep-layer shear present across much of the warm sector as mid/upper-level winds increase with the approaching upper trough. Damaging winds should be the main threat with the MCS as it moves over north/central FL and southern GA, with a couple of embedded tornadoes also possible. With cool temperatures aloft and somewhat steepened mid-level lapse rates, large hail may also occur with initially semi-discrete convection that develops along the Atlantic Coast sea breeze. There is some potential for a second round of severe thunderstorms, including supercells capable of producing a few tornadoes, late Saturday evening and continuing through the night. This threat will be tied to the ejecting upper wave and rapidly strengthening southerly winds associated with a 40-50+ kt low-level jet. If the airmass behind the MCS can recover quickly enough, then both low-level and deep-layer shear appear quite favorable for supercells along/ahead of a cold front. The main uncertainty is whether sufficient instability will materialize to realize this potential severe threat. Given the possibility for multiple rounds of severe convection, and trends in 12Z guidance, have expanded the Slight Risk across much of north/central FL and more of southern GA to account for both the MCS track and potential evening/overnight supercells. ..Gleason.. 04/28/2023 Read more

MD 0641 CONCERNING SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH POSSIBLE FOR NORTHERN MISSISSIPPI...EAST-CENTRAL ARKANSAS...FAR SOUTHWEST TENNESSEE
Mesoscale Discussion 0641 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0350 PM CDT Thu Apr 27 2023 Areas affected...Northern Mississippi...east-central Arkansas...far southwest Tennessee Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible Valid 272050Z - 272245Z Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent SUMMARY...A few storms may develop near the shortwave trough in Arkansas and ahead of the cold front in Mississippi. Large hail and isolated damaging winds are the primary threats. A watch may be needed should convective trends warrant. DISCUSSION...Objective mesoanalysis shows increasing boundary-layer destabilization from east-central Arkansas into northern Mississippi. As clouds have dissipated through the day, low-levels have recovered to some degree. Visible satellite indicates increasing cumulus across central Mississippi. Closer to the upper-level trough in Arkansas, additional convection has also recently developed. Shear should increase as the upper trough moves east. Effective shear of 45-60 kts will favor organized storms. Long hodographs and cold mid-level temperatures (around -14 to -17 C) suggest large hail potential. Damaging wind gusts may also occur, but low-level lapse rates should keep that threat more isolated. The highest confidence in storm development/persistence will be near the shortwave trough. It is less certain how many storms will form in central/northern Mississippi, but those storms would have more potential for large hail. Trends will be monitored for a possible watch. ..Wendt/Hart.. 04/27/2023 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product... ATTN...WFO...BMX...HUN...MEG...JAN...LZK...

MD 0640 CONCERNING SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 174... FOR CENTRAL AND EASTERN FL PANHANDLE...FAR SOUTHWEST GA
Mesoscale Discussion 0640 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0334 PM CDT Thu Apr 27 2023 Areas affected...central and eastern FL Panhandle...far southwest GA Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 174... Valid 272034Z - 272200Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 174 continues. SUMMARY...Scattered damaging gusts and perhaps a tornado will remain possible through 5-6pm EDT. DISCUSSION...Radar mosaic shows a north-northeast to south-southwest oriented band of a thunderstorms move east across the northeast Gulf of Mexico and central portions of the FL Panhandle late this afternoon. Surface streamline analysis indicates weak easterly flow across the central portion of the FL Panhandle during the past couple of hours. Surface conditions ahead of the band of storms have temperatures in the lower to mid 70s with dewpoints in the lower 70s. A long-lived supercell has continued east-northeast across the Panhandle with all hazards being exhibited via radar during the past couple of hours. The band of storms and associated convection on its leading edge is beginning to encroach on the supercell with the potential for a tornado becoming more uncertain with time. Nonetheless, a pronounced surge in the line supported by strong deep-layer shear (effective shear 60 kt) will favor swaths of damaging gusts as a weak mesolow begins to develop centered with thunderstorms near Washington/Calhoun counties. Complex storm-scale interactions may continue to occur with both damaging gusts and perhaps a brief mesovortex tornado possible as as the band moves east during the next 1-2 hours. ..Smith.. 04/27/2023 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
