Day 4-8 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0359 AM CDT Sat Jun 14 2025 Valid 171200Z - 221200Z ...DISCUSSION... ...Tuesday/Day 4 and Wednesday/Day 5... A mid-level trough is forecast to move into the High Plains on Tuesday, as a cold front moves southward into the central Plains. Ahead of the front, a moist and unstable airmass is forecast by afternoon from Kansas and southeastern Nebraska into northern Missouri. As surface temperatures warm during the day, thunderstorm development will likely take place along parts of the front. Moderate deep-layer shear is forecast across much of the region, suggesting that storms should become organized. Supercells and short intense line segments will be possible, with large hail and wind damage as the primary threats. The mid-level trough is forecast to move eastward through the central states on Wednesday, as a cold front advances southeastward into the lower Missouri Valley and western Great Lakes. Ahead of the front, an axis of moderate instability is forecast to be in place by afternoon. Thunderstorm development will be likely along parts of the front. Moderate deep-layer shear is forecast along and near much of the instability axis, suggesting that a severe threat will again be possible during the afternoon and evening. ...Thursday/Day 6 to Saturday/Day 8... The mid-level trough is forecast to move eastward into the Northeast on Thursday. Ahead of the trough and its associated cold front, moderate instability is expected to develop by afternoon. Thunderstorm development will be most likely from parts of southern New England southwestward into the Mid-Atlantic. Deep-layer shear should be sufficient for an isolated severe threat. However, there is considerable uncertainty due to the issues of frontal timing and instability magnitude. From Friday into Saturday, a mid-level ridge is forecast to move eastward from the northern Plains into the Great Lakes. Although a moist and unstable airmass will likely be in place across the north-central U.S., large scale ascent should be weak across most of the region. For this reason, predictability is low concerning any potential severe threat. Read more

MD 1282 CONCERNING SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 413... FOR PARTS OF WESTERN INTO CENTRAL KANSAS
Mesoscale Discussion 1282 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0208 AM CDT Sat Jun 14 2025 Areas affected...parts of western into central Kansas Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 413... Valid 140708Z - 140915Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 413 continues. SUMMARY...There appears potential for merging outflow to support an increase in thunderstorm development and intensity, east of Garden City and north of Dodge City between 3-5 AM CDT. This could be accompanied by a continuing risk for strong to severe surface gusts through daybreak, and it is possible a new severe weather watch will be needed. DISCUSSION...The south-southeastward propagating cluster out of northeast Colorado and southwestern Nebraska still appears accompanied by a notable surface cold pool, including 2-hourly surface pressure rises near or in excess of 4 mb, while 2-hourly rises near 3 mb have been observed with the smaller eastward propagating cluster to the south. Both clusters are being maintained by modestly strong low-level inflow of unstable air, with the southern cluster supported by better low-level moisture and potential instability, along a remnant baroclinic zone beneath warm and capping elevated mixed-layer air. A meso-beta scale cyclonic circulation has also recently been evident with the southern cluster, accompanied by strong westerly rear inflow in excess of 50-60 kt around 9-10 thousand feet AGL. The more vigorous convective development with the northern convective cluster has been contracting in size, and the influence of the increased mid-level inhibition with continued gradual boundary-layer cooling remains unclear. However, a gust to 49 kt has recently been observed at Goodland, along the southward advancing gust front, which may overtake the southern cluster east of Garden City/north of Dodge City between 08-10Z. It is possible that this could contribute to the re-intensification of convection, with a tendency to propagate east-southeastward along the baroclinic zone, near/north of Dodge City and Medicine Lodge, toward the Hutchinson/Wichita vicinities through daybreak. Despite being embedded within generally light westerly deep-layer mean flow on the order of 10 kt, thermodynamic profiles characterized by seasonably high boundary layer moisture content and steep lower/mid-tropospheric lapse rates may remain conducive to continuing strong surface cold pool development with potential for strong to severe surface gusts. ..Kerr.. 06/14/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

Tropical Storm Dalila Forecast Discussion Number 7

2 months 1 week ago
Issued at 300 AM CST Sat Jun 14 2025 000 WTPZ44 KNHC 140849 TCDEP4 Tropical Storm Dalila Discussion Number 7 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP042025 300 AM CST Sat Jun 14 2025 Dalila has become better organized early this morning, with the latest satellite images showing well defined convective banding around the low-level center. The latest subjective Dvorak intensity estimates from TAFB and SAB were T3.5/55 knots and T3.0/45 knots. Objective estimates ranged from 34 to 43 knots, while a recent ASCAT pass showed several wind barbs close to 40 kt. Based on a blend of these data and taking into account the potential for some under-sampling in ASCAT, the initial intensity for this advisory has been increased to 45 knots. Dalila is heading toward the northwest, or 305/10 knots. A turn toward the west-northwest is expected later today as the system moves along the southern periphery of a building mid-level ridge over northern Mexico and the southwest U.S. A gradual turn toward the west is expected tonight and Sunday, as Dalila moves over cooler water and becomes increasingly steered by the low-level trade wind flow. A westward motion is then forecast to continue through dissipation Monday night, and this may be generous as Dalila may not survive that long. The track forecast lies nearly on top of the previous track and is in close agreement with the latest consensus guidance. There is a limited window for Dalila to strengthen as it will remain over warm water and light to moderate effective easterly shear today. The forecast calls for some strengthening today, and the peak intensity was nudged slightly higher to better align with the latest intensity model trends. Beginning tonight the system will cross the 26C isotherm and over progressively cooler water, and this is expected to begin the weakening phase with Dalila forecast to become a post-tropical remnant low Sunday night, and possibly sooner than that. The latest intensity forecast close to the middle of the intensity guidance envelope through the forecast period. KEY MESSAGES: 1. The outer bands of Tropical Storm Dalila will bring locally heavy rainfall to the Mexican states of Guerrero, Michoacán, and Colima through Sunday morning. Scattered areas of flooding and mudslides are expected, especially in areas of steep terrain near the coast. 2. Dalila is expected to produce tropical-storm-force winds across portions of the warning area tonight and Saturday.

Scattered severe storms with isolated large hail and wind damage are expected on Monday from the northern High Plains east-northeastward into the upper Mississippi Valley. Outside of this area, marginally severe storms will be possible across much of the central and northern U.S. ...Great Plains/Upper Mississippi Valley... A mid-level ridge will remain in place on Monday from the central Rockies northward into the northern High Plains. A subtle shortwave trough will move northeastward into the northern Rockies. At the surface, a cold front is forecast to move southward across the northern Plains. South of the front, surface dewpoints in the 60s F will contribute to the development of moderate to strong instability by afternoon. Convection is likely to initiate near the front as surface temperatures and low-level convergence increase during the day. These storms are forecast to move east-southeastward into the strong instability during the afternoon. 21Z NAM forecast soundings along and near the instability axis mostly have 0-6 km shear in the 30 to 40 knot range, with 700 mb lapse rates near 8 C/km. This environment will be favorable for supercells with isolated large hail, mainly early in the event. Mid-level flow is forecast to be nearly parallel to the boundary, suggesting that a gradual transition to linear mode could take place during the late afternoon and early evening. Linear mode would be more favorable for a wind-damage threat. The severe threat should gradually move into the mid Missouri Valley during the evening, where low-level flow is forecast to increase. Further south into parts of southern Nebraska, Kansas and northern Oklahoma, isolated convective initiation should take place as surface temperatures warm during the day, along zones of maximized low-level convergence. Forecast soundings suggest that moderate deep-layer shear and steep mid-level lapse rates will be in place over much of the moist airmass. This should support an isolated severe threat, with hail and strong wind gusts possible. However, any convection that initiates will have to overcome layer of warm air around 800 mb. This should keep any threat marginal during the afternoon and evening. ..Broyles.. 06/14/2025 Read more
