    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
    THE CENTRAL AND NORTHERN PLAINS...AND IN PARTS OF THE INTERMOUNTAIN
    WEST AND CENTRAL ROCKIES...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Marginally severe storms with hail and isolated severe gusts will be
    possible on Friday across parts of the central and northern High
    Plains, and in parts of the Intermountain West and central Rockies.

    ...Central and Northern High Plains...
    An upper-level ridge will remain over the Great Plains on Friday. At
    the surface, a north-to-south corridor of maximized low-level
    moisture will be located across the central and northern Plains,
    where surface dewpoints will be mostly in the lower to mid 60s F. As temperatures warm during the day, moderate instability is expected
    to develop throughout much of this moist airmass. Isolated
    thunderstorms are expected to form during the afternoon over the
    western edge of the stronger instability, with storm coverage
    remaining relatively sparse due to subsidence associated with the
    upper-level ridge. Forecast soundings have directional shear in the
    low-levels and speed shear aloft over much of the moist airmass. The
    moderate deep-layer shear combined with steep mid-level lapse rates
    should support a threat for hail and severe wind gusts. However, the
    threat should be marginal.

    ...Intermountain West/Central Rockies...
    An upper-level low will move to near the coast of Oregon on Friday,
    as southwest mid-level flow remains over much of the western U.S. A
    subtle shortwave trough is forecast to move through the Four Corners
    region, where an axis of moisture and instability will likely be in
    place. As surface temperatures warm during the day, scattered
    thunderstorms are expected to develop from parts of eastern Utah
    into western and central Colorado, and northward into western
    Wyoming. MLCAPE is forecast to peak in the 500 to 1000 J/kg range,
    with 0-6 km shear around 35 knots. Low-level lapse rates will also
    be steep in the afternoon. This environment should support a
    marginal potential for hail and severe wind gusts during the mid to
    late afternoon.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM UTAH AND
    WESTERN COLORADO NORTHWARD INTO EASTERN IDAHO AND SOUTHWEST
    MONTANA...AND OVER PARTS OF THE CENTRAL AND NORTHERN HIGH PLAINS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated to perhaps scattered severe storms with strong to severe
    gusts will be possible on Friday across parts of the parts of the
    Intermountain West and central Rockies, and over a narrow portion of
    the central and northern High Plains.

    ...Synopsis...
    On Friday, an upper high will remain centered over the southern
    Plains, while a large trough develops across the West. The primary
    midlevel wave will eject northeastward across the Great Basin and
    into ID and MT through 00Z, providing substantial cooling aloft.
    Lift with this feature will be focused from northern NV and UT into
    MT. Overnight, a secondary lobe of vorticity will swing east across
    much of northern CA and OR.

    At the surface, low pressure will deepen throughout the day ahead of
    a cold front which will extend from the Bitterroots southwestward
    into central NV by 21Z. Farther east, another trough will extend
    from the low in western MT southeastward into the northern and
    central High Plains.

    Midlevel moisture already in place across the Four Corners states
    will spread north across UT and into MT, which will combine with
    daytime heating and cooling aloft to result in marginal instability.
    Farther east, backed/southeasterly surface winds will maintain a
    plume of lower 60s F dewpoints as far west as far eastern MT to
    northeast CO.

    ...Great Basin into eastern ID/western WY...
    A large area of moderate southwest flow aloft will spread east
    across the region as the negative-tilt wave passes through NV/UT
    relatively early in the day. While this wave is timed more favorable
    farther north, instability may be less favorable than points south.
    Given the moisture in place, storms will form over a large area
    beginning mid/late morning over UT and expending into eastern
    ID/western WY by midday. This is not timed particularly well in
    terms of diurnal heating, but strengthening wind fields may aid gust
    potential. Additional diurnally driven cells are then expected along
    and east of the Wasatch, with marginal hail or wind threat as this
    activity spreads northeast. The western fringe of the Marginal Risk
    may be a bit generous over ID given uncertainties with how quickly
    drying will occur from the west.

    ...Northern and central High Plains...
    Daytime heating will lead to an unstable and uncapped air mass over
    the High Plains, with storms expected to form roughly near a
    Billings to Cheyenne line by late afternoon. Further development is
    possible into eastern/northeastern CO as well. Given that these
    areas are well east of the cyclonic flow regime aloft, any severe is
    expected to be relatively isolated or in sparse clusters. However,
    both localized damaging gusts or hail will be possible, though wind
    profiles will generally favor disorganized storms.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE FOUR
    CORNERS REGION EASTWARD ACROSS THE CENTRAL HIGH PLAINS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Marginally severe storms will be possible on Saturday across the
    Four Corners region eastward across the central High Plains.

    ...Synopsis...
    Large-scale upper ridging is forecast to prevail over the Plains
    Saturday, while a sharp trough advances slowly across the West.
    Meanwhile, weak troughing will prevail over the Northeast.

    At the surface, high pressure will prevail east of the Mississippi
    Valley, while a remnant baroclinic zone extends from the northern
    High Plains south-southeastward into the Kansas through most of the
    period.

    ...Four Corners area east-northeastward across the central High
    Plains...
    As upper troughing moves slowly eastward across the Intermountain
    West, modest destabilization across the Four Corners states will
    support isolated to scattered thunderstorm development. Though
    instability will remain weak, a belt of stronger mid-level flow on
    the eastern periphery of the aforementioned trough will allow a few
    stronger storms to evolve. This, combined with dry sub-cloud layer,
    suggests that locally damaging winds will be possible.

    By late afternoon and into the evening, storm development is
    forecast to increase across eastern Colorado and into the Nebraska
    Panhandle region -- in the vicinity of the surface boundary. While
    flow aloft will be weaker across this area, the strongest storms may
    produce damaging wind gusts and hail. Risk should diminish through
    late evening in tandem with nocturnal low-level stabilization.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE FOUR
    CORNERS REGION INTO THE CENTRAL HIGH PLAINS...AND OVER MAINLY
    WESTERN MISSOURI...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Marginally severe storms will be possible on Saturday across the
    Four Corners region eastward across the central High Plains. A small
    area of wind or small hail potential may also develop early over
    parts of western Missouri.

    ...Synopsis...
    On Saturday, a large upper trough will affect much of the West, with
    the primary vorticity max moving across the Great Basin. Southwest
    500 mb winds in excess of 50 kt will overspread much of that area,
    extending into northern Rockies Meanwhile, an upper high will hold
    from the central and southern Plains to the mid MS Valley through
    Sunday morning.

    At the surface, a cold front will roughly stretch from central MT
    into central NV during the late afternoon, pushing east into the
    western Dakotas and southeast across UT and southern NV into Sunday
    morning. The better moisture and instability will be shunted east
    across far eastern UT and into CO, as low-level drying occurs over
    AZ and UT with persistent southwesterly winds.

    Farther east into the Plains, a plume of mid to upper 60s F
    dewpoints will develop northward across the MO Valley and toward the
    upper MS Valley late, aided by a heating/deepening boundary layer
    and around 30 kt southerly winds at 850 mb. This will also result an
    unstable air mass, with early-day thunderstorms expected over
    western MO and toward the mid MO Valley.

    ...Four Corners to the central High Plains...
    A fetch of midlevel moisture will remain over the area, which is
    also on the eastern fringe of the stronger flow aloft. Deep-layer
    effective shear will average 35-40 kt, a will conditionally favor
    scattered fast-moving cells. Storms are likely to form my early
    afternoon over far eastern UT into western CO, and extending
    southward across western NM. Sufficient shear and instability will
    favor marginal hail with the strongest cells, while favorable
    diurnal timing will and steep low-level lapse rates will be
    conducive for strong wind gusts.

    ...Parts of central and western MO early...
    Models are in good agreement with the development of a robust
    cluster of storms in the early-day warm advection regime centered
    over western MO. Given weak northwest flow aloft and a moistening
    low-level air mass, it is conceivable that any large cluster of
    storms could potentially forward-propagate southward across much of
    western MO. As such, low severe probabilities have been added. Shear
    will remain weak, but moderate instability may allow for very brief
    hail.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE EASTERN
    DAKOTAS INTO NORTHWESTERN MINNESOTA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered severe storms may develop across the northern Plains area
    on Sunday, with more isolated severe potential southwestward into
    the southern Rockies on Sunday. A couple of strong/marginally
    severe storms may also occur across the Lower Great Lakes/Upper Ohio
    Valley vicinity.

    ...Synopsis...
    A progressing western U.S. upper trough is forecast to gradually
    weaken, as it impinges on a persistent central U.S. ridge. The
    result will be that the trough gets shunted northeastward toward Montana/Wyoming with time. Meanwhile, weak upper troughing will
    persist over the Northeast.

    At the surface, a cold front will progress eastward across the
    Canadian Prairie, and the north-central U.S. with time. By the end
    of the period, the front should stretch from Minnesota southwestward
    to northeastern Colorado.

    ...Northern Plains southwestward to the Four Corners region...
    As the western U.S. trough advances eastward, large-scale ascent
    will support scattered thunderstorm development across the
    Intermountain Region, within a diurnally destabilizing airmass.
    While CAPE will remain limited, moderate southwesterly flow aloft
    ahead of the trough will allow some storm organization/longevity at
    time. This, combined with a deep mixed layer providing support for
    enhanced downdrafts with the stronger cells, will result in risk for
    locally severe wind gusts.

    More substantial severe risk could evolve across portions of the
    north-central states, where much greater instability will evolve.
    Though the airmass should remain capped in most areas, ascent may be
    sufficient to support local cap breaches by late afternoon to allow
    isolated storm development. If storms develop, upscale growth near
    convective outflows would be expected, possibly resulting in
    evening/overnight MCS development. Large hail would be possible
    with the initial storms, though with locally damaging gusts likely
    to be the dominant risk. Still, given the capping that is
    anticipated, and questions whether ascent will be sufficient to
    allow storm development, will maintain only conditional 15%/SLGT
    risk at this time.

    ...Lower Great Lakes/Upper Ohio Valley area...
    On the western fringe of the northeastern U.S. trough, moderate
    northwesterly flow aloft may combine with modest afternoon
    destabilization to support isolated storm development. Assuming
    this occurs, a few strong gusts would be possible as storms would
    move rather quickly southeastward. The main question remains the
    degree of destabilization which may occur, and thus will introduce
    only 5%/MRGL risk at this time.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE EASTERN
    DAKOTAS INTO NORTHWEST MINNESOTA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered severe storms may develop across the northern Plains area
    on Sunday, with more isolated severe potential southwestward into
    the southern Rockies and adjacent High Plains. A couple of
    strong/marginally severe storms may also occur across the Lower
    Great Lakes/Upper Ohio Valley vicinity.

    ...Northern Plains/Upper Midwest...

    An upper anticyclone will be centered over KS/OK and the Ozark
    Plateau, with the upper ridge axis oriented northward over the Upper
    MS Valley on Sunday. Meanwhile, a shortwave upper trough will
    migrate east across the Canadian Prairies. This will focus an area
    of modestly enhanced mid/upper southwesterly flow over the Dakotas
    into the Upper Midwest.

    At the surface, south/southeasterly flow will maintain a very moist
    airmass, with dewpoints in the 70s F expected from the eastern
    Dakotas into IA/MN and vicinity. A plume of steeper midlevel lapse
    rates will advect northeast, aiding in strong destabilization.
    However, warm midlevel temps will likely maintain at least weak
    MLCIN across the region through the afternoon and into the evening
    as stronger forcing for ascent largely remains north of the
    international border. As a result, convective coverage during the
    afternoon is a bit uncertain/conditional.

    By late afternoon/evening, a surface front is forecast to progress
    eastward across the Dakotas and into MN through the nighttime hours.
    This may provide sufficient forcing for isolated thunderstorm
    development. Given strong instability and sufficient vertical shear
    for organized updrafts, large hail (especially with initial cellular development) and damaging gusts will be possible.

    ...Four Corners into WY and adjacent High Plains...

    An upper trough will lift northeast across the Great Basin on
    Sunday. Modestly enhanced southwesterly mid/upper flow will
    overspread the region between the eastern periphery of the trough
    and the western periphery of the upper ridge to the east.
    Boundary-layer moisture will remain modest for most of the region,
    but steep midlevel lapse rates and strong heating will support
    500-1000 J/kg MLCAPE. Sporadic downbursts may produce locally severe
    gusts with this activity.

    ...Upper Ohio Valley Vicinity...

    Modest northwesterly mid/upper flow will overspread the region on
    Sunday on the western periphery of a Northeast upper trough. Latest
    forecast guidance shows warming midlevel temps/minor height rises
    during the day. However, a moist airmass will be in place and weak
    to moderate destabilization is expected. Convective coverage may be
    fairly low given latest forecast guidance trends. However, any
    stronger cells that develop may produce locally strong gusts or
    small hail given favorable shear and elongated/straight forecast
    hodographs.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM PORTIONS
    OF EASTERN SOUTH DAKOTA INTO SOUTHERN WISCONSIN...AND SMALL PORTIONS
    OF SURROUNDING STATES...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe storms are expected to evolve within a zone extending from
    the northern High Plains eastward to the Wisconsin vicinity during
    the afternoon and evening Monday. A few severe storms are also
    expected across the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic region.

    ...Synopsis...
    A weakening upper trough is forecast to remain across the central
    U.S. Monday. On the northwestern periphery of this ridge, and
    short-wave trough initially over the Intermountain West is forecast
    to advance northeastward across the northern High Plains into the
    Northern Plains through the period. Meanwhile, an upper low is
    forecast to shift southward out of the St. Lawrence Valley area
    across western/southern New England, before shifting offshore
    overnight. Finally, a Gulf of Alaska upper trough is forecast to
    advance into western Canada and the Pacific Northwest through
    Tuesday morning.

    At the surface, a northwest-to-southeast cold front is forecast to
    extend from the northeastern Minnesota vicinity southwestward across
    Nebraska early in the period. The front should move little through
    the day, as a frontal low lingers in the vicinity of the
    Mid-Missouri Valley area. Overnight, the low is forecast to shift northeastward, allowing the trailing portion of the cold front to
    progress southward across the central Plains through latter stages
    of the period.

    ...Northern High Plains east to parts of Wisconsin...
    Thunderstorms may be ongoing across portions of northern Minnesota
    early Monday morning, with limited severe risk potentially lingering
    through roughly midday. Meanwhile, as the moist low-level airmass
    heats near and south of the convectively reinforced front,
    mixed-layer CAPE in the 3000 to 5000 J/kg range is forecast to
    develop through the afternoon. This, combined with ascent near the front/convective outflows, should allow isolated storms to develop
    across the eastern South Dakota vicinity. The storms should rapidly
    become supercells, given the kinematic environment characterized by
    low-level flow veering/increasing with height to 40 to 50 kt
    southwesterlies at mid levels. Very large hail is expected, along
    with damaging wind gusts. Storms will continue into the evening,
    possibly growing upscale into an MCS overnight -- shifting
    northeastward into/across southern Minnesota. Along with continued
    risk for large hail, damaging winds would likely accompany this
    convection. In addition, a couple of tornadoes may also occur --
    particularly just to the northeast of the anticipated position of
    the surface low where low-level flow will remain
    backed/southeasterly.

    Meanwhile farther west, into the High Plains, isolated afternoon
    convective development is expected, in closer proximity to the
    advancing upper system. A drier boundary layer and thus weaker CAPE
    across this region suggests less substantial severe risk. Still,
    hail and damaging gusts should accompany a few of the stronger
    storms, given the belt of 50 kt mid-level southwesterly flow
    accompanying the advancing short-wave trough.

    ...Portions of the Northeast/New England...
    As the upper low shifts southward across western New England through
    the day Monday, heating/destabilization is expected to support
    development of isolated to scattered thunderstorms. Enhanced
    northwesterly flow near and west of the low should support
    southeastward-moving bands/clusters of storms, which should prove
    locally capable of producing strong -- potentially damaging -- gusts
    from mid afternoon into the evening hours.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE GREAT
    LAKES REGION...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Some severe-weather potential is evident across the Great Lakes
    region on Tuesday.

    ...Synopsis...
    An upper ridge centered over the Mid-MS/TN/OH Valleys will gradually
    weaken with time, as a short-wave trough shifting east-northeastward
    across the northern Plains gradually suppresses the ridging.
    Meanwhile upstream, a strong upper low over southern British
    Columbia early will advance eastward across southern portions of the
    Canadian Rockies and adjacent northwestern U.S. through the period.

    At the surface, an expansive cold front extending from Quebec
    southwestward across the Upper Great Lakes to the central High
    Plains will become increasingly west/east-oriented, as the
    northeastern portion of the front shifts southeastward into New
    England during the second half of the period, while the southwestern
    segment remains more quasi-stationary -- or even retreats slightly
    northward -- through the end of the period. Meanwhile, a strong
    cold front will advance eastward/southeastward across the
    northwestern U.S. ahead of the progressive upper low.

    ...Great Lakes region...
    Thunderstorms -- and some severe risk -- should be ongoing across
    portions of the Upper Great Lakes region at the start of the period.
    Evolution of convection with time remains uncertain - in part due to
    remnant influence of upper ridging across the region and associated
    capping. Some models suggest that ongoing convection weakens
    through the day, with little afternoon redevelopment. At this time,
    the most likely scenario appears to be one or more clusters of
    storms will continue moving eastward across the risk area through
    the day, accompanied by at least some risk for damaging winds and
    hail. By mid afternoon, redevelopment of storms may occur on
    southern fringes of earlier convection, near remnant outflows.
    Given likelihood for substantial destabilization, severe risk would
    accompany any of these redeveloping storms.

    Questions persist not only with degree of coverage of convection
    through afternoon and evening, but both the southern, and eastern,
    extent of severe potential. Several models suggest storms
    developing south and southwest of the SLGT risk area, where
    favorable instability but much weaker shear is expected. Meanwhile,
    some models continue to depict overnight convection crossing the
    Lower Great Lakes region, with ample instability/shear to support at
    least low-end severe potential. Additional adjustments to the MRGL
    risk area in later outlooks will likely be required, as the
    evolution of this scenario becomes a bit less uncertain.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PORTIONS OF
    THE DAKOTAS...AND FROM OHIO TO THE NORTHERN MID-ATLANTIC COAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are expected on Wednesday from parts of Ohio to
    the northern Mid-Atlantic coast, and across parts of North and South
    Dakota.

    ...Mid-MS/OH Valleys to the Mid-Atlantic...

    Uncertainty remains this forecast cycle, particularly from around
    central PA eastward to the northern Mid-Atlantic Coast/Chesapeake
    Bay vicinity. Severe thunderstorm probabilities have been focused
    along and just ahead of a southward sagging cold front and
    instability gradient from central OH to the NJ coast. Rich
    boundary-layer moisture (dewpoints in the upper 60s to mid 70s F)
    will contribute to a corridor of MLCAPE around 2000-4000 J/kg from
    the Mid-MS Valley eastward to the NJ coast. Warm midlevel
    temperatures may lead to lingering inhibition, particularly across
    eastern portions of the Slight and Marginal risk areas. Height falls
    associated with troughing over eastern Canada will remain well north
    of the region, and resulting in somewhat nebulous large-scale ascent
    amid very modest vertical shear (effective shear magnitudes
    generally less than 25 kt).

    Convection from the Day 1/Tue period may be ongoing Wednesday
    morning across parts of the Great Lakes vicinity and shift east
    along the instability gradient/southward-sagging surface front
    through the afternoon. Vertical shear may be locally enhanced with
    any MCV that may be present with this activity, and damaging winds
    are possible as the downstream boundary layer destabilizes.
    Additional isolated thunderstorm development is possible from
    central PA/northern VA eastward to the coast. This activity could
    produce locally damaging gusts and perhaps small hail if capping can
    be overcome and longer-lived updrafts develop.

    Weak shear further west toward the Mid-MS Valley vicinity will
    likely preclude a more organized severe risk. However, strong
    heating amid the very moist/unstable airmass will support isolated strong/locally damaging gusts during the afternoon.

    ...Northern Plains...

    A robust upper cyclone will spread east from the northern Rockies to
    the northern Plains on Wednesday. Enhanced mid/upper southwesterly
    flow ahead of this feature will overspread the Dakotas, in
    conjunction with stronger height falls, from late afternoon into the
    overnight hours. At the surface, low pressure will deepen over the
    northern High Plains during the day, resulting in an increasing
    baroclinic zone across the northern Plains. Southeasterly low-level
    flow will transport 60s F dewpoints northwest ahead of a
    westward-advancing cold front. Steepening midlevel lapse rates and
    favorable boundary-layer moisture will support a corridor of strong
    instability (MLCAPE 2000-3000 J/kg). Forecast soundings indication
    supercell wind profile, with greater than 40 kt effective shear
    magnitudes and elongated/straight hodographs. Large hail, some
    potential to 3 inch diameter, will be possible in addition to severe
    wind gusts beginning near 00z and lingering into the nighttime
    hours.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PORTIONS OF
    MINNESOTA AND WESTERN WISCONSIN...AND INTO IOWA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are possible on Thursday from portions of the
    Upper/Middle Mississippi Valley to the central Plains. A few strong
    storms also will be possible over portions of the Virginia and North
    Carolina vicinity.

    ...Synopsis...
    While weak upper short-wave troughing shifts across the Northeast on
    Thursday, a much stronger trough/low will continue to advance
    into/across the north-central U.S. through the period. At the
    surface, a cold front is forecast to sag southward across the
    Mid-Atlantic region in lee of the Appalachians, while a more
    substantial cold front shifts eastward/southeastward across the
    Plains through the period.

    ...Mid and Upper Mississippi Valley area to the central Plains...
    As the upper low and associated trough extending southward across
    the northern Plains gradually advances, eastward progression of the
    associated cold front will result in afternoon storm development
    from western Minnesota southwestward into Kansas. While both
    instability and shear are expected to diminish gradually with
    southwestward extent along the front, 2500 to 3500 J/kg mixed-layer
    CAPE is forecast by late afternoon from central Minnesota into far
    northeastern Nebraska and Iowa, along with 0-6 km shear in the 35 to
    45 kt range. This will support vigorous storms, and attendant risks
    for large hail and damaging wind gusts. With time, linear/upscale
    organization is expected to occur, with severe risk shifting across
    the Upper Midwest/upper Mississippi Valley region through the
    evening hours. Lesser risk with southwestward extent should
    gradually diminish after sunset.

    ...Virginia/North Carolina vicinity...
    As weak mid-level short-wave troughing shifts across the Northeast,
    a cold front back-dooring southward in lee of the Appalachians may
    focus development of afternoon showers and thunderstorms. Rather
    weak northwesterly flow aloft, but moderate destabilization that is
    expected to occur, will likely support a few multicell clusters,
    along with attendant risks for marginal hail and minor wind damage.
    Risk should remain confined to the afternoon and early evening
    hours, diminishing in tandem with nocturnal stabilization.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are possible on Thursday from portions of the
    Upper/Middle Mississippi Valley to the central Plains. A few severe
    storms also will be possible over portions of the mid-Atlantic
    region.

    ...Synopsis...
    A weak upper-level short-wave trough will shift east across the
    Northeast on Thursday, as a much stronger trough/low will continue
    to advance into/across the north-central states. At the
    surface, a cold front is forecast to sag southward across the
    Mid-Atlantic region in lee of the Appalachians, while a more
    prominent cold front shifts eastward/southeastward across the
    central and northern Plains.

    ...Mid and Upper Mississippi Valley area to the central Plains...
    Large scale ascent with the upper low/trough will increase in the
    vicinity of the eastward-advancing cold front over MN/northern IA,
    augmented by the right-entrance region of a 250-mb jet lifting north
    during the day. Substantial instability should be in place by
    afternoon, with afternoon MLCAPE in excess of 3000 J/kg expected.
    Strengthening mid-level flow with the approach of the upper trough
    will contribute to deep-layer shear of 35-45 kts, supporting
    organized storms including the potential for supercell structures. Thunderstorms should increase in coverage through the afternoon and
    evening, becoming more linear with time along the cold front.
    Damaging winds and large hail will be the primary severe hazards,
    with the severe risk continuing into the evening hours. Some
    tornado risk may also develop with embedded QLCS circulations as
    low-level shear appears supportive, especially within the Slight
    Risk area.

    Both instability and shear will diminish with southward extent
    across eastern NE/northern KS, however afternoon thunderstorm
    development is expected along the front within a largely uncapped
    environment. Isolated damaging winds will be the primary risk as
    strong boundary-layer heating will steepen low-level lapse rates,
    and storms begin to cluster during the late afternoon/evening.
    Instances of large hail will also be possible.

    ...Mid-Atlantic Region...
    A southward-moving cold front will move across the mid-Atlantic in
    the lee of the Appalachians Thursday within a moderately unstable
    though weakly sheared environment. With minimal afternoon CINH,
    thunderstorms should develop over the higher terrain and along the
    front and tend to cluster with time. This will result in a risk for
    damaging gusts, and perhaps hail with the stronger updrafts.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE LAKE
    HURON AND ERIE VICINITY WEST-SOUTHWESTWARD ACROSS THE MIDWEST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Strong/locally severe storms will be possible from Lakes Huron and
    Erie southwestward into the Midwest Friday.

    ...Synopsis...
    An upper-level trough will continue moving slowly eastward out of
    the north-central U.S. across the Great Lakes and Midwest on Friday,
    with the more vigorous portion of the trough expected to eject
    northeastward across western Ontario into the Hudson Bay region.

    At the surface, a cold front is forecast to continue eastward across
    the Great Lakes, southeastward across the Midwest, and slowly
    southward across the southern Plains. By the end of the period, the
    front should extend from the Lower Great Lakes west-southwestward
    across the Ohio Valley, and into Oklahoma and northern Texas.

    ...Lower Michigan/northern Ohio/northwestern Pennsylvania across the
    Midwest...
    Moderate destabilization is expected in tandem with afternoon
    heating ahead of the cold front, from Lower Michigan
    west-southwestward across northern Illinois and Missouri, and
    southward across the warm sector. As the front slowly advances,
    scattered thunderstorm development is expected, initially across the
    lower Michigan and potentially into parts of Ohio, and then
    expanding southwestward across Indiana, Illinois, and into Missouri.

    Although the stronger deep-layer shear will largely remain to the
    cool side of the front, modest westerly mid-level flow of 20-25 kts
    will favor loosely organized storms, with some potential for upscale growth/clustering. Strong/isolated damaging gusts and perhaps
    severe hail will be possible. While risk should diminish after
    dark, convection -- and very limited risk with a couple of stronger
    storms -- may continue well into the overnight hours.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR EASTERN LOWER
    MICHIGAN...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered strong to severe storms are possible across eastern lower
    Michigan on Friday, with more isolated strong/severe storms into
    parts of the Midwest, and also across parts of the Carolinas and
    Virginia into northeast Georgia.

    ...Synopsis...
    The southern portion of an relatively deep upper-level trough will
    move across the Upper Midwest and Great Lakes region on Friday, with
    the strongest part of this trough and related mid/upper-level flow
    expected to remain north of the international border. A cold front
    trailing from a deep surface low near Hudson Bay will move across
    parts of the Great Lakes, Midwest, mid/upper MS Valley, and
    south-central Great Plains.

    ...Parts of lower MI and OH into IN/IL/MO...
    Diurnal heating and relatively rich moisture will support moderate
    to locally strong destabilization along/ahead of the cold front
    during the afternoon. Scattered thunderstorm development will be
    possible across a broad region from lower MI and OH into the Midwest
    and parts of the Plains. Stronger deep-layer flow/shear will be
    generally displaced to the north of the front, though modest
    west/southwesterly flow could support isolated strong storms capable
    of locally damaging gusts and possibly hail.

    Within the broader region of isolated severe potential, a somewhat
    more favorable environment will be possible in the vicinity of
    eastern lower MI, where relatively greater low/midlevel flow
    (generally 20-30 kt at 850 mb and 30-40 kt at 700 mb) is forecast
    within the prefrontal environment. A few more-organized clusters or
    line segments appear possible in this area, with an attendant
    damaging-wind threat. A 15% wind area has been added where
    confidence is currently highest in the overlap of greater storm
    coverage and somewhat stronger flow.

    ...NC/VA into the southern ...
    Scattered thunderstorms are expected Friday afternoon across much NC
    and southern VA into the southern Blue Ridge vicinity, within a
    moist and unstable environment. Development will tend to be focused
    near the sea breeze, any remnant outflow boundary from D1/Thursday
    convection, and across the higher terrain. Deep-layer shear is
    expected to remain weak, which will tend to limit storm
    organization. However, the favorable thermodynamic profile will
    support a threat of locally damaging outflow winds.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE CENTRAL APPALACHIANS AREA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe potential -- mainly in the form of damaging gusts -- is
    expected across portions of the northeast/central Appalachians and
    into the Tennessee and Ohio Valleys Saturday. A few strong/severe
    gusts may also occur over parts of the Upper Mississippi Valley
    vicinity during the afternoon.

    ...Synopsis...
    An upper trough moving across central Canada and the Great Lakes
    region will amplify modestly as it progresses eastward through
    Saturday night. Meanwhile, large-scale upper ridging will continue
    to prevail over the West.

    At the surface, a weakening cold front will continue moving eastward
    across the Lower Great Lakes and Ohio Valley into the Northeast and
    Tennessee Valley area through Saturday afternoon and evening.
    Meanwhile, a much stronger cold front is forecast to shift rapidly southeastward/southward out of Canada across the Upper Great Lakes
    and northern/central Plains through the period.

    ...Portions of the Northeast west-southwestward across the Ohio and
    Tennessee Valleys...
    As a weakening cold front shifts southeastward into the
    Northeast/across the Ohio Valley during the afternoon in tandem with
    weak mid-level height falls, heating/destabilization will support
    development of bands of thunderstorms across this region. The
    strongest flow aloft will remain across New York and into
    Pennsylvania, with weaker flow southwestward along the front.
    However, more substantial CAPE is expected farther south/southwest.
    The best juxtaposition of favorable kinematics and ample instability
    is forecast from portions of southeastern New York southwestward
    into the West Virginia/Maryland/northern Virginia vicinity. Here,
    locally damaging winds and some hail will be possible --
    particularly during the afternoon hours. Lesser risk will extend
    southwestward -- potentially as far west-southwest as the middle
    Mississippi Valley area.

    ...Upper Mississippi Valley vicinity...
    As a strong cold front advances south-southeastward across the
    Northern Plains/Upper Great Lakes region ahead of a digging
    mid-level short-wave through, weak/rather low-topped instability is
    forecast to develop during the afternoon. This will support widely
    scattered thunderstorm development near the advancing front, within
    a very favorably strong kinematic environment. As such, fast-moving
    storms will be capable of producing gusty/damaging winds locally,
    before storms diminish after sunset.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PARTS OF
    CENTRAL APPALACHIANS INTO THE NORTHEAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms capable of producing damaging gusts are
    possible across portions of the central Appalachians into the
    Northeast on Saturday. A few strong/severe gusts may also occur
    over parts of the Ohio/Tennessee Valleys, and across northern Minnesota/Wisconsin into Upper Michigan.

    ...Synopsis...
    The large-scale pattern will remain relatively unchanged on
    Saturday, with a relatively deep upper-level trough extending from
    eastern Canada into the Northeast/Great Lakes, while an upper-level
    ridge remains in place over much of the West. A weakening cold front
    will move into parts of the Northeast and Ohio Valley during the
    afternoon and evening. A strong reinforcing shortwave trough and
    attendant cold front will move southeastward across parts of the
    northern Great Plains into the upper Great Lakes region.

    ...Parts of the Northeast into the OH/TN Valleys...
    Scattered thunderstorm development is expected during the afternoon
    along/ahead of the weakening cold front from parts of the Northeast
    into the OH/TN Valleys. In general, there will be some displacement
    between stronger low/midlevel flow to the northeast and stronger
    instability with southwestward extent. The best relative overlap of
    instability and modestly favorable flow/shear is expected from the
    central Appalachians into parts of the Northeast. Multiple loosely
    organized storm clusters will be possible across this area, with a
    threat of isolated to scattered damaging winds and localized hail.

    Deep-layer shear will be weaker into parts of the TN and lower OH
    Valleys. However, moderate to locally strong buoyancy and relatively
    large PW will support localized wet microbursts, and perhaps a
    couple of outflow-driven clusters, with isolated damaging-wind
    potential.

    ...Parts of northern MN/WI into upper MI...
    While buoyancy will likely remain weak due to limited moisture,
    strong large-scale ascent associated with the approaching shortwave
    trough will support potential for relatively low-topped convection
    near the cold front. Steepening low-level lapse rates and
    strengthening low-level flow will support a threat of at least
    isolated damaging gusts with the strongest convection. Relatively
    cold temperatures aloft will also support potential for small to
    near-severe hail, if deeper convection can develop.

    ...Arizona...
    Modestly increasing moisture will support isolated to widely
    scattered storms across parts of Arizona on Saturday. Initial
    development is expected over the usual terrain-favored areas. It
    remains uncertain if storm coverage and intensity will be sufficient
    for stronger outflow winds to spread into the lower elevations,
    though this cannot be ruled out within a weak easterly midlevel flow
    regime.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PORTIONS
    OF THE NORTHERN INTERMOUNTAIN REGION AND GREAT BASIN...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered strong/a few severe storms capable of producing damaging
    wind gusts, and possibly marginal hail, are expected from the
    northern Intermountain region eastward into the northern High
    Plains, and southward into Utah.

    ...Synopsis...
    As a large-scale upper trough continues to vacate the northeastern
    U.S. Tuesday, a second/short-wave trough initially situated over the
    Pacific Northwest will advance eastward across the northern
    Intermountain region/Great Basin.

    At the surface, a cold front will shift eastward across the
    northwestern quarter of the country, in conjunction with the
    advancing upper trough, while westerly flow aloft will maintain a
    High-Plains lee trough. Meanwhile, a remnant baroclinic zone will
    linger from the southern Atlantic coastal area westward across the
    Gulf Coast/northern Gulf of Mexico through the period, as a large
    area of high pressure prevails north of the front, across the
    central and eastern U.S., through the period.

    ...Montana to the western Dakotas, and southward to northwestern
    Colorado and Utah...
    As the upper system advances eastward across Idaho/western Montana
    and the Great Basin during the afternoon, daytime heating/mixing
    will eventually result in 500 to 1000 J/kg mixed-layer CAPE atop a
    deep/dry boundary layer. This will support development of scattered thunderstorms from western Montana/eastern Idaho southward across
    Utah and adjacent portions of eastern Nevada.

    The strongest storms are expected to evolve from southwestern
    Montana south to northern Utah, where CAPE should be maximized ahead
    of the trough, and a belt of 30 to 40 kt west-southwesterly
    mid-level flow on the southeastern periphery of the upper trough
    should reside. Here, a couple of the strongest -- potentially
    rotating -- storms will be capable of producing both strong/severe
    outflow winds and possibly marginal hail. Surrounding this area,
    where instability and/or shear should remain a bit weaker, the
    primary risk will be isolated strong wind gusts.

    Through late afternoon and into the evening, convection -- and local
    risk for strong/damaging winds -- will spread eastward toward/into
    the High Plains, before weakening into the overnight hours.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER MUCH OF THE
    NORTHERN ROCKIES AND INTO THE EASTERN GREAT BASIN...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered strong storms with isolated severe may produce damaging
    wind gusts and marginal hail from the northern Intermountain region
    eastward into the northern High Plains, and southward into Utah.

    ...Synopsis...
    On Tuesday, an upper trough will weaken as it moves from the
    Northwest into the northern Rockies, providing cooling aloft and
    increased mid and high level flow. To the east, a large upper trough
    will exit the northeastern states, with height rises over the
    north-central CONUS.

    At the surface, a weak cold front will move across the eastern Great
    Basin, ID, western WY and southwest MT by early afternoon,
    increasing lift/convergence.

    Elsewhere, a moist air mass will remain from TX eastward across the
    Gulf Coast, with scattered non-severe storms likely.

    ...Eastern Great Basin into the Northern Rockies...
    As heating accelerates and cooler temperatures overspread the
    region, steep lapse rates will yield a large area of thunderstorms,
    developing relatively early in the afternoon, from much of UT into
    southwest MT. The strongest instability with 500 to 1000 J/kg MUCAPE
    will be roughly from far northern UT into MT, where temperatures
    aloft will be coolest. Deep-layer effective shear will increase to
    around 40 kt, especially across ID, MT, and northwest WY, which will
    aid cellular storm mode and hail potential to around 1.00" in
    diameter. Otherwise, scattered storms across the entire area will
    produce outflows, with progressive clusters of storms producing
    strong to locally severe gusts. A few storms may make it as far east
    as western SD by late evening, with generally decreasing intensity
    after sunset.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
    THE CENTRAL/NORTHERN ROCKIES AND PLAINS INTO MUCH OF MINNESOTA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated strong to severe storms are possible on Wednesday across
    parts of the central and northern Rockies and Plains into parts of
    Minnesota.

    ...Synopsis...
    A shortwave trough initially over the Great Basin/Intermountain West
    is forecast to move east-southeastward and gradually deamplify on
    Wednesday, as it begins to merge with a more prominent upper-level
    trough that will cover parts of the Canadian Prairies into the
    northern/central Plains. Multiple embedded shortwaves within the
    larger trough will likely move across parts of the Dakotas and
    Minnesota. A weak surface wave may develop during the afternoon
    along a cold front that will extend from parts of MN and the Dakotas
    into the central Plains.

    ...Parts of the northern/central Rockies/Plains into Minnesota...
    A large area of at least low-end severe potential may evolve from
    parts of the central/northern Rockies/Plains into Minnesota. The
    Marginal Risk has been maintained with some minor adjustments;
    further refinement to the risk area is likely if areas of relatively
    lower or higher threat become evident with time.

    Scattered thunderstorms may develop relatively early in the day
    across the higher terrain of CO/WY/MT, in association with the
    shortwave trough emerging from the Intermountain West. While
    low-level moisture will likely remain rather limited, steep midlevel
    lapse rates and modestly favorable deep-layer shear could support a
    few organized multicells and perhaps a marginal supercell or two, as
    convection spreads towards the central/northern High Plains.
    Isolated strong to severe gusts and hail will be possible. Some
    outflow consolidation could support one or more loosely organized
    clusters evolving with time, with a threat of strong to locally
    severe gusts as storms move eastward into the evening.

    Farther northeast, details regarding destabilization and storm development/evolution from the eastern Dakotas into MN remain
    uncertain. Some guidance suggests potential for an embedded
    shortwave or MCV to move across the region during the
    afternoon/evening, which could aid in isolated storm development
    near the front, if sufficient moistening and destabilization can
    occur. There will also be some potential for storms to develop
    and/or spread into the region from the west during the evening, as
    the larger-scale upper trough begins to amplify. Relatively steep
    midlevel lapse rates and adequate deep-layer shear could support
    isolated hail and damaging gusts with the strongest storms.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PORTIONS
    OF THE CENTRAL ROCKIES...CENTRAL HIGH PLAINS...NORTHERN PLAINS...AND
    THE MIDWEST....

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated strong to severe storms are possible on Wednesday across
    parts of the central and northern Rockies and Plains into parts of
    Minnesota.

    ...Synopsis...
    A broad, positively tilted trough with several embedded shortwave
    troughs will become more consolidated and start to amplify across
    the northern Plains on Wednesday and Wednesday night. At the
    surface, a cold front will move southeast across the northern Plains
    with scattered thunderstorms possible. The greater thunderstorm
    coverage is expected during the afternoon/evening across the central
    Rockies, beneath the coldest air aloft, and across northwest
    Wisconsin/eastern Minnesota early Thursday morning as the low-level
    jet intensifies along the frontal zone.

    ...Central Rockies into the central High Plains...
    Scattered to widespread thunderstorms are expected across the
    central Rockies on Wednesday afternoon as cold air aloft (-12C at
    500mb) combines with significant heating over the higher terrain.
    The greatest instability will be near the center of the vorticity
    maximum/cold air pocket where wind shear will be quite weak. Some
    wind gusts or isolated large hail will be possible, but a more
    organized threat seems unlikely. A more favorable wind profile will
    exist along the southern periphery of this trough from eastern Utah
    to southern Wyoming and northern Colorado. However, the warmer
    temperatures aloft within this corridor may limit storm
    coverage/intensity somewhat. Therefore, a few strong to locally
    severe storms are possible from southern Montana to northern
    Colorado, western Nebraska, and southwest South Dakota, however, a
    displacement between the best instability and wind shear should keep
    the threat somewhat limited.

    ...Upper Midwest...
    A mid-level shortwave trough will eject across the Dakotas, in the
    vicinity of the cold front, during the day Wednesday. Therefore, a
    few thunderstorms are possible along the cold front, but a lack of
    better moisture should mostly limit the daytime thunderstorm threat.
    However, as the low-level jet strengthens overnight, it will result
    in some moistening between 850mb and 700mb which will likely result
    in more widespread thunderstorm development after 06Z. During this
    period, mid-level flow will also strengthen from around 25 knots to
    near 35 knots by 12Z. This will improve the shear across the region
    and therefore, result in some threat for large hail and damaging
    wind gusts near sunrise as storms develop within a region of
    moderate instability and 30 to 35 knots of shear.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    The threat for organized severe thunderstorms currently appears low
    on Thursday, but a few strong storms cannot be ruled out across
    parts of the upper Midwest, New Mexico, and south-central Colorado.

    ...Synopsis...
    An upper-level trough is forecast to amplify and move southeastward
    across the Canadian Prairies into the upper Midwest/Great Lakes on
    Thursday. To the southwest of this amplifying trough, a weakening
    shortwave is forecast to move southeastward across the
    central/southern Rockies into the southern High Plains. At the
    surface, a cold front is forecast to extend southwestward from the
    Great Lakes into parts of the Midwest and central/southern Plains
    during the afternoon.

    ...Parts of the upper Midwest...
    Elevated convection will likely be ongoing Thursday morning across
    parts of WI and western upper MI. While this convection will likely
    tend to weaken with time, a strong storm or two cannot be ruled out
    early in the period.

    As the cold front moves south-southeastward through the day,
    isolated to widely scattered thunderstorm development will be
    possible in the vicinity of the frontal zone. Large-scale forcing
    and deep-layer flow are forecast to be somewhat stronger near the
    upper Midwest portion of the front, in response to the amplifying
    upper-level trough. Relatively substantial spread persists among
    guidance regarding the extent of moistening/destabilization, though
    in general, buoyancy is expected to remain relatively modest,
    rendering any organized-severe potential uncertain.

    With relatively limited low-level moisture, pockets of rather strong heating/mixing could develop, which may support localized gusty
    winds with any stronger storms. If stronger destabilization does
    evolve during the afternoon, then isolated hail cannot be ruled out.
    At this time, confidence in an organized severe threat remains too
    low for probabilities.

    ...South-central CO into NM...
    Scattered thunderstorms are expected from south-central CO into NM,
    as the weakening shortwave trough moves southeastward across the
    region during the afternoon/evening. Effective shear will become
    modestly supportive of organized convection (generally 25-30 kt),
    but buoyancy may remain rather weak. If adequate instability can be
    realized, then some threat for localized hail and strong/severe
    gusts could accompany the strongest storms.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
    NORTHEAST NEW MEXICO....

    ...SUMMARY...
    A few strong to severe storms are possible across portions of
    northeast New Mexico Thursday afternoon/evening.

    ...Synopsis...
    An upper-level trough is forecast to amplify and move southeastward
    across the Canadian Prairies into the upper Midwest/Great Lakes on
    Thursday. To the southwest of this amplifying trough, a weakening
    shortwave is forecast to move southeastward across the
    central/southern Rockies into the southern High Plains. At the
    surface, a cold front is forecast to extend southwestward from the
    Great Lakes into parts of the Midwest and central/southern Plains
    during the afternoon.

    ...Southern Rockies and High Plains...
    A concentrated area of thunderstorms are forecast across northeast
    New Mexico on Thursday as a sharp mid-level shortwave trough
    advances southeast across the central/southern Rockies and interacts
    with a pocket of instability in the post-frontal airmass across
    northeast New Mexico. Some increasing mid-level flow associated with
    this trough will overspread the region and provide 20 to 25 knots of
    deep layer shear. This may be sufficient for some storm organization
    and the potential for severe-wind gusts. Some small hail is also
    possible, but relatively modest instability/shear may limit the
    potential for large hail.

    ...Parts of the Upper Midwest...
    Thunderstorms will likely be ongoing at the beginning of the period
    along the frontal zone in northwest Wisconsin. Expect this activity
    to wane by mid-morning as the low-level jet weakens. Strong height
    falls will overspread the cold front by mid to late afternoon which
    should support additional thunderstorm development along the cold
    front during the afternoon/early evening. Forecast soundings show
    limited moisture/instability (less than 1000 J/kg MLCAPE) and modest
    effective shear (25-30 kts). This could support a few strong to
    severe storms, but overall, expect the severe-weather threat to
    remain limited/isolated.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR MUCH OF OHIO
    INTO ADJACENT PARTS OF THE GREAT LAKES AND OHIO VALLEY...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Strong to locally severe storms are possible on Friday across much
    of Ohio and adjacent portions of the Great Lakes and Ohio Valley.

    ...Synopsis...
    An upper-level trough is forecast to amplify as it digs
    southeastward across the Great Lakes and Ohio Valley regions on
    Friday. A mid/upper-level cyclone is forecast to develop with time,
    as a strong embedded shortwave moves southeastward into the base of
    the trough by Friday evening. A cold front will move through parts
    of the Great Lakes, Ohio Valley, Midwest, and southern Plains.
    Farther south, a weak surface wave may develop along a front near
    the Gulf Coast and move northeastward along or just offshore of the
    Carolina coast late Friday night into early Saturday morning. To the
    west, an upper ridge will remain in place across the Southwest,
    while a shortwave trough begins to move inland across northern CA
    into the Pacific Northwest.

    ...Ohio and adjacent parts of the Great Lakes/Ohio Valley...
    Thunderstorms are expected to develop near the cold front Friday
    afternoon across parts of Ohio and vicinity, as the amplifying
    upper-level trough begins to impinge upon the region. Low-level
    moisture will likely remain rather limited ahead of the front,
    though relatively strong heating/mixing will steepen low-level lapse
    rates. Somewhat more favorable moisture and buoyancy will reside
    near and immediately behind the front, with MLCAPE potentially
    approaching or exceeding 1000 J/kg.

    Low-level flow will likely remain rather weak, but gradually
    increasing effective shear (generally into the 25-35 kt range) could
    support a few stronger storms capable of at least isolated damaging
    winds during the afternoon and perhaps into the evening. Isolated
    hail also cannot be ruled out with any stronger discrete cells.

    ...Gulf Coast to the Carolina Coast...
    Some increase in low-level flow is possible in the vicinity of the
    frontal wave that may develop near the Gulf Coast and move toward
    the coastal Carolinas overnight. While this could be accompanied by
    some increase in low-level shear/SRH, buoyancy is currently expected
    to remain quite weak, so potential for organized convection inland
    appears relatively uncertain/limited at this time.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER MUCH OF
    OHIO AND PARTS OF ADJACENT STATES...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Strong to locally severe storms are possible on Friday across much
    of Ohio and adjacent portions of the Great Lakes and Ohio Valley.

    ...Synopsis...
    A large upper trough will deepen on Friday as it moves from the
    upper MS Valley across the Great Lakes. The primary speed max will
    dive southeastward across MN/IA during the day and round the base of
    the trough into IL, IN, OH and toward Lake Erie into Saturday
    morning. Meanwhile, modest upper ridging will exist across the West
    with weak flow.

    At the surface, a cold front will stretch from near Lake Erie
    southwestward toward the OH Valley during the afternoon with a
    surface low developing from Lake Ontario into far southwest Quebec
    late. Otherwise, the pre-frontal trough will be relatively weak
    during the day.

    ...OH and Vicinity...
    Daytime heating will lead to steepening lapse rates, with a plume of
    60s F dewpoints likely east of the cold front. Forecast soundings
    show in excess of 1000 J/kg MUCAPE. While low-level lapse rates will
    become steep, most of the cooling aloft will be post frontal, and
    not contribute appreciably to destabilization across the warm
    sector.

    Increasing frontal ascent into the uncapped air mass will lead to
    scattered storms after about 18Z, from far western NY into parts of
    KY. The most favorable combination of instability and wind profiles
    appears to be over OH, with sufficiently long hodographs to support
    hail in some of the storms. Cellular storm mode is expected early,
    with the undercutting cold front supporting a transition to linear.
    As such, marginal hail and then wind gusts will be possible through
    about 02Z, when storms are expected to dissipate with the loss of
    heating.

    southeastward across the Mid-Atlantic, Carolinas and Southeast.
    Ahead of the front, scattered thunderstorms will likely develop as a
    moist airmass heats up during the day. Additional storms will be
    possible on Saturday in the vicinity of a large area of mid-level
    high pressure located over the southwestern U.S. A few strikes may
    also occur near the Interstate-5 corridor in western Washington
    southward into the Willamette Valley.

    Thunderstorms will be possible Saturday over parts of the Northeast
    and Mid Atlantic, the central Rockies/High Plains, Florida, and
    across parts of the Southwest. No severe weather is expected.

    ...Synopsis and Discussion...
    A deep upper low/trough will move eastward across the Great Lakes
    and toward the Northeast, becoming negatively tilted and resulting
    in substantial cooling aloft. At the surface, a cold front will
    extend south from a low over southern Quebec, roughly from the
    Hudson Valley into the Piedmont around 18Z.

    While dewpoints in the 60s F will exist ahead of the cold front,
    instability will be minimal and generally less than 500 J/kg due to
    a shallow/cool boundary layer. In addition, low-level shear will not
    be particularly strong, with modest warm advection around 850 mb. As
    such, severe weather is not anticipated with this system despite the
    strong upper trough.

    Elsewhere, northwest flow will exist across the central High Plains
    east of the upper ridge, with around 1000 J/kg MUCAPE developing.
    Dewpoints may struggle to reach 50 F, though isolated thunderstorms
    are expected with locally gusty winds or small hail over northeast
    CO into western NE during the late afternoon.

    An upper-level trough will move eastward across the Ohio and

    ridge, over much of the Intermountain West. No severe threat is
    expected in the U.S. on Sunday or Sunday night.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    The organized severe-thunderstorm threat is expected to be low on
    Sunday.

    ...Synopsis...
    A deep trough is forecast to move eastward across eastern Canada and
    the northeast CONUS on Sunday, as an embedded mid/upper-level
    cyclone moves across parts of Quebec, New Brunswick, and northern
    New England. To the west, a midlevel shortwave trough will move
    across the interior Northwest, to the north of a mid/upper-level
    ridge. A surface ridge covering much of the eastern CONUS will
    prevent return of richer low-level moisture from near the Gulf
    Coast. This will limit destabilization and organized severe
    potential across most of the CONUS.

    Thunderstorms will be possible from the Carolinas/Georgia to the
    immediate Gulf Coast, where richer moisture will persist near and
    north of a surface front. A few strong storms may develop across the central/northern FL Peninsula, where the relative best overlap of
    instability and modest flow aloft is currently forecast. Weak
    convection with sporadic lightning flashes could move across parts
    of the Great Lakes, in conjunction with a pocket of cold
    temperatures aloft. Isolated to scattered high-based convection will
    be possible from the central High Plains into parts of the
    central/southern Rockies, Great Basin, and Southwest, which may
    produce locally strong gusts. Some strong-gust potential could also
    accompany isolated storm development across the interior Northwest,
    in association with the shortwave trough moving across the region.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PORTIONS OF
    WESTERN INTO CENTRAL NEW YORK...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Thunderstorms will be possible on Monday in parts of the lower Great
    Lakes, along the Gulf Coast, and from the Four Corners northward
    into the northern Plains. Some storms may produce damaging wind
    gusts over western into central New York.

    ...Synopsis...
    A pronounced mid-level trough will eject into the Atlantic while
    weaker mid-level troughs, embedded in mainly zonal flow, traverse
    the Pacific Northwest and Northern Plains tomorrow (Monday). Surface
    high pressure will dominate the Midwest to Atlantic Seaboard while
    surface troughing becomes established over the central and northern
    Plains. An embedded mid-level impulse will pivot around the backside
    of the East Coast trough and provide adequate lift for at least
    scattered thunderstorms over NY and immediate surrounding areas.
    Meanwhile, strong surface heating and orographic lift will encourage
    isolated to scattered thunderstorm development over the Great Basin
    into the Four Corners region, with scattered thunderstorm
    development also possible over the Northern Plains with the passage
    of a mid-level trough. Finally, scattered thunderstorms may also
    develop by afternoon peak heating amid a moist boundary layer along
    the Gulf Coast into FL.

    ...Portions of New York...
    A 500 mb speed max will rotate around the backside of the East Coast
    trough by afternoon, when boundary-layer heating will support the
    steepening of low-level lapse rates to about 7.5-8 C/km, resulting
    in over 500 J/kg MLCAPE over central NY. While buoyancy will be weak
    overall, the 500 mb speed max overspreading the region will result
    in elongated mid/upper-level hodographs. As such, highly sheared and
    low-topped multicell storms are expected to develop during the
    afternoon. Some of the stronger storms may produce potentially
    damaging wind gusts, necessitating the introduction of Category
    1/Marginal risk probabilities.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PARTS OF THE
    LA GULF COAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Some tornado threat associated with Tropical Cyclone Francine may
    approach the Louisiana Gulf Coast by early Wednesday morning.

    ...Synopsis...
    Tropical Storm Francine will potentially intensify into a hurricane
    as it moves north-northeastward across the western Gulf of Mexico.
    Meanwhile, a strong mid/upper-level shortwave trough is forecast to
    dig southeastward into the Pacific Northwest and northern CA.
    Diurnal thunderstorms capable of locally gusty winds will be
    possible from the eastern Great Basin into parts of the Rockies, and
    also across the FL Peninsula. More isolated storms will also be
    possible from the central Plains into the parts of the upper
    Midwest, which may also be capable of locally gusty winds. Organized severe-thunderstorm potential is expected to remain low, with the
    possible exception of the LA Gulf Coast region late in the period in association with Francine.

    ...LA Gulf Coast vicinity...
    Refer to NHC forecasts and advisories for more information regarding
    Tropical Storm Francine. Based on the current forecast track, the
    most favorable environment for low-topped supercells associated with
    Francine should remain offshore for most of the forecast period.
    However, some outer bands may begin to approach the LA Gulf Coast
    prior to 12Z Wednesday morning, accompanied by an increase in
    low-level shear/SRH. A small Marginal Risk has been included near
    the immediate LA Gulf Coast for the potential of an increasing
    tornado threat prior to the end of the forecast period.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN SOUTH LA TO THE
    COASTAL WESTERN FL PANHANDLE...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A few tornadoes are possible across the central Gulf Coast vicinity
    on Wednesday into Wednesday night, in association with Tropical
    Cyclone Francine.

    ...Central Gulf Coast...
    Per latest NHC forecasts and ensemble guidance, Tropical Storm
    Francine is expected to become a hurricane over the northwest Gulf
    and make landfall along the LA coast around Wednesday evening. A low-probability tornado threat with outer-band convection should
    reach coastal LA by Wednesday morning. The more favorable overlap of strengthening low-level shear/SRH and intrusion of deeper tropical
    moisture (surface dew points in the mid/upper 70s F) is expected
    during the afternoon and evening across parts of south-central to
    southeast LA and far southeast MS/southwest AL. As the TC progresses
    inland and weakens Wednesday night, some broadening of the favorable SRH/surface-based buoyancy environment should spread east into the
    coastal FL Panhandle. The northern extent of a low-probability
    tornado threat remains uncertain, with surface-based buoyancy
    potentially remaining quite limited into parts of central MS and
    interior south AL Wednesday night.

    ...Interior Northwest to the northern High Plains...
    A shortwave trough will progress inland from the coastal Pacific
    Northwest, likely reaching the northern Rockies to central Great
    Basin by 12Z Thursday. Large-scale ascent and cooling mid-level
    temperatures attendant to the approaching trough will support
    scattered thunderstorms across the interior Northwest on Wednesday
    afternoon. While the bulk of strong mid-level flow will remain
    displaced west of the shortwave trough, moderate enhancement of
    southwesterlies will occur ahead of it. This should be adequate for
    marginal updraft rotation amid weak surface-based buoyancy. Isolated
    strong to localized severe gusts along with small to marginally
    severe hail will be possible into the early evening.

    Separately, isolated to widely scattered high-based, low-topped
    thunderstorms should form in the late afternoon along a lee trough
    towards a quasi-stationary front over the northern High Plains.
    Meager buoyancy and modest deep-layer shear within a meridional wind
    profile suggest sporadic severe gusts in microbursts will be the
    main threat. Along the immediate north of the front, a confined
    corridor of greater moisture/instability should be in place during
    the afternoon/evening, but capping will likely limit surface-based
    development. A few stronger elevated storms will be possible into
    Wednesday night, but potential for severe hail appears negligible.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER SOUTHERN
    PARTS OF THE CENTRAL GULF COAST STATES...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A few tornadoes are possible across the central Gulf Coast vicinity
    on Wednesday into Wednesday night, in association with Tropical
    Cyclone Francine.

    ...Northern Gulf Coast...
    Francine is forecast to become a hurricane over the northwest Gulf
    of Mexico, with strengthening wind fields overspreading much of the
    central Gulf Coast states from Wednesday afternoon into the night.
    Preceding this system, a stationary front will exist roughly
    parallel to the coast, with the more unstable/tropical moisture to
    the south.

    As southerly winds increase east of the cyclone center, this will
    lift the front north as a warm front, with mid 70s F dewpoints
    spreading north across southern MS, AL, and the western FL
    Panhandle. Rapidly enlarging hodographs in the vicinity of the warm
    front may support a zone of tornado potential as bands of cells push
    northward off the Gulf of Mexico and arc northwestward. Tornado
    potential on the north side will be limited by the more stable air
    due to high pressure to the north.

    ...Parts of the Northwest/Northern Rockies...
    A strong shortwave trough will move across the Pacific Northwest and
    into the Great Basin, with substantial cooling aloft. A cold front
    will generally stretch from a low over western MT across central ID
    and into northern NV during the afternoon, with the strongest
    heating ahead of the front across NV, UT and western WY. Post
    frontal rain and a few thunderstorms are likely near the developing
    cold front early in the day from northern ID into eastern OR, with
    diurnal convection developing over southeast OR, southwest ID and
    northern NV. Deep-layer shear will not be particularly strong given
    that the primary speed max will dive southeastward across the
    Sierra. However, cool temperatures aloft may yield small hail, with
    scattered strong gusts with the larger clusters of storms.
    Additional marginally severe storms may occur from western MT into
    northwest WY near the deepening surface trough and aided by very
    steep lapse rates supporting strong gusts.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE FL
    PANHANDLE TO CENTRAL AL AND IN EASTERN MT...

    ...SUMMARY...
    On Thursday, a few tornadoes will be possible, mainly in the morning
    and afternoon from the Florida Panhandle to north-central Alabama.
    Scattered large hail and severe gusts will also be possible across
    the eastern Montana vicinity during the afternoon to early evening.

    ...FL Panhandle to the TN Valley...
    Hurricane Francine is forecast by NHC to be in a weakening phase
    from a tropical storm to a depression on Thursday, as it steadily
    moves north from parts of western/central MS into the Mid-South.
    With this process occurring throughout D2, tornado potential should
    be focused during the first half of the period. Rather enlarged
    low-level hodographs initially should gradually shrink from south to
    north, but will remain overlapped with rich 70s surface dew points
    through at least the afternoon. Consensus of CAM guidance largely
    suggests multiple opportunities for convective bands during this
    time frame. Primary threat in the morning should initially be
    confined across the FL Panhandle into south AL. This should shift
    north along the leading edge of the rich tropical moisture into
    central to perhaps north AL during the afternoon. The northern
    extent of the low-probability tornado threat over the TN Valley
    appears nebulous, where scant surface-based buoyancy can become
    coincident with large SRH.

    ...Eastern MT vicinity...
    A northern Rockies to Great Basin shortwave trough will move
    gradually east into the northern High Plains to central Rockies by
    Thursday evening. Guidance remains highly consistent with the
    ejection of an embedded impulse and attendant meridional mid-level
    jetlet impinging on the eastern MT/WY region during the late
    afternoon to early evening. This will increase large-scale ascent
    and deep-layer shear, while being favorably timed with peak
    boundary-layer heating.

    Spread in guidance is greater with the degree of available buoyancy
    as boundary-layer moisture remains limited. But a ribbon of low to
    mid 50s surface dew points appears plausible on the backside of a
    deep surface cyclone drifting from far eastern MT into south SK.
    This would support a confined corridor of at least weak buoyancy,
    which should be enhanced by cooling mid-level temperatures with the
    approaching trough. Scattered thunderstorms should develop near the
    WY/MT border area during the mid to late afternoon and quickly
    advance north-northeast. Amid a highly elongated mid to upper
    hodograph, long-lived mid-level rotation and small-scale bowing
    segments may occur, capable of producing swaths of large hail and
    severe gusts through about dusk.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE FLORIDA
    PANHANDLE TO CENTRAL ALABAMA AND IN EASTERN MONTANA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    On Thursday, a few tornadoes will be possible, mainly in the morning
    and afternoon from the Florida Panhandle to north-central Alabama.
    Scattered large hail and severe gusts will also be possible across
    the eastern Montana vicinity during the afternoon to early evening.

    ...Synopsis...
    A strong mid-level trough will become negatively tilted across the
    northern Rockies on Thursday afternoon as a moderately strong
    mid-level jet streak wraps around the southern periphery of the
    primary trough. At the same time, Hurricane Francine will undergo
    extratropical transition across portions of the Southeast.

    ...FL Panhandle to the TN Valley...
    Thursday morning, backed surface winds and favorable hodographs for
    low-level rotating updrafts will be present along the
    Florida/Alabama coastal region. In addition, a tropical airmass with
    upper 70s dewpoints will support MLCAPE of 2000+ J/kg during the
    morning hours. South-southeasterly surface winds during the late
    morning will veer to south-southwesterly by the early afternoon
    hours which will lessen low-level shear and also lead to some
    dry-air advection and weaker instability during the afternoon and
    evening. Therefore, the primary tornado threat across the Florida
    Panhandle and southern Alabama should be confined to the morning
    hours.

    By early-to-mid afternoon, guidance indicates at least some clearing
    of cloud-cover across central Alabama which may result in some
    surface heating and destabilization with MLCAPE of 1000 to 1500 J/kg
    possible. The potential for this increase in diurnal instability may
    overlap the period when the most favorable wind profile also exists
    across the same region. This could result in a threat for a few
    tornadic storms across central Alabama during the mid-to-late
    afternoon period.

    ...Eastern Montana vicinity...
    Strong forcing will overspread eastern Montana Thursday afternoon as
    a mid-level shortwave trough approaches the region. A well-mixed,
    relatively moisture-starved airmass will exist ahead of the cold
    front/surface low. However, in the immediate wake of the cold front,
    prior to the colder surface air, better moisture will wrap around
    the surface low. This will lead to a narrow corridor of weak to
    moderate instability and the potential for scattered thunderstorms.
    Strong effective shear (55+ knots) will exist in this post-frontal
    airmass where storms are anticipated. Therefore, supercells or a few
    bowing segments may be possible with a threat for severe wind gusts
    and large hail.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN A PART OF THE
    TN VALLEY TO THE FL PANHANDLE...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A couple brief tornadoes and locally damaging winds are possible
    across a part of the Southeast on Friday morning into the afternoon.

    ...Southeast...
    The remnants of TC Francine are expected to decay in place near the
    AR/TN/MO border vicinity on Friday, with greater weakening of
    low-level winds relative to today. Still, the strongest lingering
    belt of low-level southeasterlies should persist through Friday
    morning into the afternoon to the east, centered on the TN Valley.
    This should yield moderate SRH coincident with the northern extent
    of weak surface-based instability from central AL/far western GA
    northward into Middle TN. This corridor will likely be narrow at any
    one time and steadily shift east through the day. A drier air mass
    with veered low-level winds is expected to its west, and cooler
    surface temps beneath pervasive cloudiness should occur to its
    northeast. A couple brief tornadoes will be possible, mainly from
    mid-morning into the afternoon.

    Low-level winds will diminish with southern extent to the FL
    Panhandle, but moderate mid-level southwesterlies should yield
    adequate deep-layer shear for transient mid-level rotation. Modest boundary-layer heating of a residual tropical air mass should occur
    within a corridor ahead of an occluded surface front. Locally strong
    gusts capable of sporadic tree damage remain possible.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN PARTS OF THE
    TN VALLEY TO THE FL PANHANDLE...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A couple brief tornadoes and locally damaging winds are possible
    across a part of the Southeast on Friday morning into the afternoon.

    ...Synopsis...
    The remnants of TC Francine will begin the day somewhere across
    eastern Arkansas and slowly drift east through the day while
    weakening. A belt of moderate mid-level flow will persist across the
    southern periphery of this remnant low. Farther west, a strong
    mid-level trough across the northern Rockies will weaken and move
    into the Canadian Prairies. A remnant surface cold front will
    traverse the Northern Plains through the day on Friday.

    ...Portions of the Southeast...
    A plume of tropical moisture will remain from the Florida Panhandle
    into central Tennessee on Friday. A mostly uncapped airmass is
    expected through the entire convective period. However, some greater instability is likely during the afternoon with some surface
    heating. However, given the limited inhibition, convective
    overturning is expected before more substantial instability can
    develop. Nonetheless, an extended period of 1000 to 1500 J/kg MLCAPE
    with 25 to 30 knots of effective shear will support some multicell
    clusters or occasional supercells. This may result in a brief
    tornado or two and the potential for locally damaging wind gusts,
    primarily during the afternoon/early evening on Friday.

    ...Northern Plains into the central Plains...
    A line of thunderstorms will likely develop along a cold front in
    North Dakota and South Dakota on Friday. However, instability will
    be relatively limited and elevated (500-800 J/kg MUCAPE). This weak
    instability combined with limited upper-level synoptic support,
    should mitigate any severe weather threat.

    Farther south, a few thunderstorms are possible in the Texas
    Panhandle and into western Oklahoma in the vicinity of a
    dryline/weak surface low where temperatures are expected to warm
    into the low 90s. While a few storms may develop, significant
    inhibition/dry air entrainment will likely keep the threat for more robust/severe convection muted.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are not forecast on Saturday.

    ...Central High Plains to central/western SD...
    As a Pacific cold front stalls and decays Friday night over the
    northern Great Plains, a north/south-oriented surface trough should
    redevelop west by late Saturday afternoon from northeast CO to the
    western Dakotas. While a minority of models suggest isolated
    thunderstorms may form along this boundary, the majority suggests
    isolated to widely scattered thunderstorms should develop during the
    afternoon in the modest low-level warm theta-e advection regime
    ahead of the trough. This regime may be aided by a low-amplitude
    upper-level trough trailing southward from the Canadian Prairies,
    but neutral to weak mid-level height rises are forecast during the
    period. Upper flow will be weak near the trough, but sufficient
    veering of low to mid-level winds with height may yield effective
    bulk shear of 25-30 kts. Amid steep mid-level lapse rates, a couple
    of storms could produce marginally severe hail. Moderate spatial
    uncertainty with this corridor of risk, along with the marginal
    nature of the conditional severe threat, precludes an areal
    delineation.

    ...Southeast...
    The remnants of post-TC Francine should slowly weaken and remain
    nearly stationary in the Lower MS Valley. At least modest buoyancy
    should be displaced well to its southeast across FL into south GA
    and southeast AL on Saturday afternoon. Weaknesses in both
    deep-layer shear and lapse rates above the boundary layer suggest
    the threat for organized severe storms is negligible.

    Organized severe thunderstorms are not forecast on Saturday.

    ...North-Central High Plains including parts of NE/SD...
    A north/south-oriented boundary will be in place Saturday afternoon
    and evening across the north-central High Plains, spanning northeast
    Colorado and western Nebraska into the western Dakotas. Influenced
    by stronger westerlies centered over the Pacific Northwest,
    semi-cool mid-level temperatures and relatively steep lapse rates
    will coincide with 50s F surface dewpoints near/east of the surface trough/boundary, leading to 1000+ J/kg MLCAPE by mid-afternoon. At
    least widely scattered thunderstorms are expected to develop by
    mid/late afternoon. Effective shear of 25-30 kt could support some multicellular storm sustenance. A few of these storms could produce
    marginally severe hail and/or strong wind gusts, although some spatial/intensity details very in guidance. Subsequent outlooks into
    the Day 1 time frame will reevaluate for the potential introduction
    of severe probabilities.

    ...Southeast...
    The remnants of Post-Tropical Cyclone Francine will continue to
    weaken and remain nearly stationary across the Lower Mississippi
    Valley on Saturday. At least modest buoyancy should be displaced
    well to its southeast across Florida and the coastal Southeast
    Saturday afternoon, well away from the Tennessee Valley. The overall
    potential for organized severe storms appears low.

    A blocking upper pattern will hold in the East, with a stout

    approaching the Pacific Coast will yield a closed mid/upper low over
    northern to central CA by Sunday night. Strengthening large-scale
    ascent downstream should foster a broadening area of low-probability thunderstorm potential in the West amid scant buoyancy north of AZ.
    During the late afternoon, moderate MLCAPE should develop across
    parts of the western Great Plains to central TX. This could be
    sufficient for a few strong, but pulse-type thunderstorms given
    predominantly weak shear.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS PARTS OF THE
    CENTRAL HIGH PLAINS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated strong to severe thunderstorms are possible Sunday
    afternoon and evening across parts of the central High Plains.

    ...Synopsis...
    An upper-level trough currently residing over the northeastern
    Pacific is forecast to deepen substantially over the next 48 hours
    along the West Coast. This will establish a broad swath of
    strengthening south/southwesterly flow across the greater Great
    Basin region into the central/northern Rockies. Low-level moisture
    return into the central Plains should increase as a lee surface
    trough slowly deepens in response to the evolving upper-level
    pattern. The increasing moisture/buoyancy quality may support some intensification of convection as it migrates out of the central
    Rockies and into the High Plains Sunday afternoon and evening.

    ...Central High Plains...
    High-based convection is expected to develop within the central
    Rockies by mid/late afternoon Sunday as a combination of deep-layer
    ascent and diurnal warming steepen lapse rates. Isolated
    thunderstorms are also possible in the vicinity of a deepening
    surface trough across eastern WY/northeast CO where surface pressure
    falls are currently expected to be strongest. Forecast guidance
    suggests that this activity will intensify as it migrates northeast
    and impinges on the western periphery of the moisture reservoir to
    the east of the surface trough where MLCAPE values may be as high as
    1000-2000 J/kg. While the central High Plains will likely remain
    displaced from the strongest mid/upper-level flow, 25-30 knot
    mid-level winds with modest low-level flow should provide sufficient
    deep-layer shear to support some degree of storm organization with
    an attendant large hail threat. Additionally, boundary-layer mixing
    on the edge of the deeper moisture will be adequately deep
    (mixed-layer LCLs near 2.5 km AGL) to support strong to severe gusts
    with the more organized cells and/or clusters.

    ...Great Basin/Four Corners...
    Increasing broad scale ascent over the Great Basin and Four Corners
    region should result in isolated to scattered thunderstorm
    development by late afternoon. While some degree of moisture return
    is anticipated from the Gulf of California across southern AZ, most
    regions will remain fairly warm and dry in the low-levels. Such
    thermodynamic conditions will be conducive for dry downbursts that
    may be capable of very localized strong to severe gusts. The
    predictability of where such gusts are most likely across the
    broader region remains too limited to warrant risk probabilities.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN THE EASTERN
    GREAT BASIN TO FOUR CORNERS...THE RED RIVER VALLEY OF THE
    NORTH...AND EASTERN NC...

    ...SUMMARY...
    On Monday, sporadic severe gusts and marginally severe hail will be
    possible during the afternoon to early evening across parts of the
    eastern Great Basin to Four Corners. Isolated, marginally severe
    storms are possible over eastern North Dakota into northwest
    Minnesota during the late afternoon and evening. A low-probability
    tornado threat may develop over eastern North Carolina.

    ...Eastern Great Basin to the Four Corners...
    An amplified mid-level low near the Bay Area at 12Z Monday should
    initially move east before curling northeast Monday night towards
    the NV/UT/ID border area. This will occur in response to a strong
    mid-level jet translating through the basal portion of the
    large-scale trough across the Desert Southwest into the eastern
    Great Basin. Convection should be ongoing Monday morning immediately
    ahead of the mid-level low and separately in the low-level
    warm/moist conveyor over the Four Corners region. Greater
    boundary-layer heating should occur between these two regimes across
    eastern NV into UT, west of the Wasatch Range. Despite meager
    MLCAPE, the deepening boundary layer amid a strengthening meridional
    wind profile should yield efficient downward mixing. This will be
    further augmented by evaporatively cooled downdraft accelerations
    and promote a threat for sporadic severe gusts.

    Farther southeast, a more southwesterly mid to upper-flow regime
    should yield hodograph elongation, supporting a few splitting
    supercells. Warmer mid-level temperatures and correspondingly weaker
    lapse rates will temper parcel acceleration to an extent, but this
    may be offset by somewhat higher PW values. Marginal severe
    hail/gusts will be possible.

    ...Eastern ND to northwest MN...
    With the primary upper-level trough displaced well to the west,
    deep-layer shear will remain weak across much of the Great Plains.
    However, most guidance suggests an MCV will emanate out of D1
    central High Plains convection and gradually progress northeast
    towards the Red River Valley. In conjunction with the northern nose
    of a strengthening central to northern Great Plains low-level jet, a
    focused corridor for regenerative thunderstorm development may occur
    during the late afternoon and evening. Some low-level hodograph
    enlargement should support a predominantly clustered convective
    mode, with transient supercell structures possible. An isolated,
    lower-end severe hail/wind threat may develop, and a brief tornado
    is also possible.

    ...Coastal NC...
    While guidance consensus increasingly favors offshore cyclogenesis,
    the amplitude of this development along with timing of inland
    progression remain quite varied for a D2 forecast. The 00Z NAM and
    some of the 18Z ECMWF ENS members suggest particularly robust
    deepening will occur. The more aggressive scenarios would yield
    substantial enlargement of low-level hodographs, likely becoming
    coupled with a narrow swath of high theta-e air spreading
    west-northwestward from the Gulf Stream. Given the potential range
    of scenarios from nil threat to multiple tornadic supercells, a
    low-probability tornado highlight appears warranted.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR THE EASTERN
    GREAT BASIN INTO THE FOUR CORNERS REGION...ND INTO NORTHWEST
    MN...EASTERN NC AND VICINITY...

    ...SUMMARY...
    On Monday, sporadic severe gusts and hail will be possible during
    the afternoon to early evening across parts of the eastern Great
    Basin to Four Corners. Isolated severe storms are possible over
    eastern North Dakota into northwest Minnesota. Some tornado threat
    may develop over eastern North Carolina and vicinity.

    ...Eastern Great Basin to the Four Corners...
    A seasonably strong mid-level low initially near San Francisco Bay
    Monday morning should move east during the day, before curling
    northeast Monday night towards the NV/UT/ID border area. This will
    occur in response to a strong mid-level jet translating through the
    basal portion of the large-scale trough across the Desert Southwest
    into the eastern Great Basin.

    Convection will likely be ongoing at the start of the forecast
    period near the midlevel low, and also farther east toward the Four
    Corners region, within the warm/moist conveyor. Relatively strong
    heating will be possible between these two regimes, from eastern NV
    into parts of UT. While buoyancy will likely remain quite weak
    within this warmer and more well-mixed regime, high-based convection
    will be possible during the afternoon and evening as the midlevel
    low approaches the region, with increasing meridional flow and a
    deeply mixed boundary layer supporting isolated severe gusts.

    Farther southeast into eastern UT and the Four Corners vicinity,
    increasing southwesterly flow aloft and strengthening deep-layer
    shear will become conditionally supportive of organized convection.
    Warmer midlevel temperatures may limit buoyancy to some extent,
    though sufficient moisture will support afternoon MLCAPE of 500-1000
    J/kg. A few supercells will be possible within this regime, with an
    attendant threat of isolated severe gusts and hail.

    ...Parts of ND into northern MN...
    With the primary upper-level trough displaced well to the west,
    deep-layer shear will remain weak across much of the Great Plains.
    However, most guidance suggests an MCV will emanate out of central
    High Plains convection on D1/Sunday and gradually progress northeast
    towards the Red River Valley during the day on Monday. In
    conjunction with a strengthening low-level jet, this MCV may help to
    support relatively vigorous storm redevelopment within a moderately
    unstable environment during the afternoon and evening.

    Stronger midlevel flow attendant to the MCV could support some storm organization, and a couple supercells and/or stronger clusters will
    be possible, with a threat of isolated hail and damaging wind.
    Somewhat favorable low-level shear/SRH could also support a tornado
    threat, if a surface-based supercell can be sustained. Uncertainty
    remains regarding the strength/timing of any MCV moving across the
    region, along with the most favored corridor for diurnal storm
    development.

    ...Eastern NC and vicinity...
    Guidance generally suggests that an initially offshore surface low
    will move northward or northwestward from later on D1/Sunday into
    D2/Monday and D3/Tuesday, and eventually move inland across some
    part of the Carolinas. However, uncertainty remains regarding the
    timing, track, and intensity of this low, along with the extent to
    which it acquires any tropical or subtropical characteristics.

    If a deepening low does move onshore, then a higher theta-e airmass
    may move inland, accompanied by increasing low-level shear/SRH
    along/north of the low track. While the general scenario supports
    some potential for low-topped supercells, the magnitude of any
    tornado threat will be dependent on the extent of intensification
    that occurs with the low (and its attendant wind fields) prior to
    landfall. The Marginal Risk has been expanded somewhat across
    eastern NC and vicinity, in response to the various uncertainties.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN THE CENTRAL
    HIGH PLAINS AND EASTERN MT...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated to scattered severe gusts and hail are possible Tuesday
    across a large swath of the High Plains region, mainly from late
    afternoon into the evening. The greater concentrations of severe
    storms may occur over the central High Plains and eastern Montana.

    ...High Plains...
    A mid/upper-level shortwave trough initially over the eastern Great
    Basin will take on a negative tilt as it advances towards the
    northern High Plains. Deep lee cyclogenesis is expected over far
    northeast WY/southeast MT, with a warm front arcing east across
    parts of the Dakotas. This low will advance north then northwestward
    across eastern MT through 12Z Wednesday.

    Large-scale ascent will be pronounced within this synoptic regime,
    with favorable upper-level difluence, mid-level height falls, and
    low-level convergence. However, weak buoyancy and modest mid-level
    lapse rates will characterize much of the environment to the south
    of the surface cyclone and warm front. Aided by a subtropical
    moisture plume over the Southwest, morning convection near the Four
    Corners region should move across the higher terrain and expand in
    coverage into the afternoon.

    High-based storms over the central and southern High Plains will
    progress into a well-mixed boundary layer that may initially be
    devoid of appreciable CAPE. This lack of greater buoyancy during the
    late afternoon to early evening (outside of areas north of the warm
    front) yields some uncertainty regarding the degree of storm
    intensity into the lower elevations. But with scattered to
    eventually widespread convection expected with time, extensive
    outflows are expected to push east. The most likely corridor for
    severe gusts appears to be over the central High Plains where the
    most pronounced 700-500 mb flow should advance ahead of the
    negative-tilt shortwave trough. Farther south, a few supercells may
    initially develop from parts of NM into southeast CO. Modest
    mid-level lapse rates should temper updraft vigor, but marginally
    severe hail along with isolated severe gusts will be possible.

    More favorable low-level moisture with steep mid-level lapse rates
    will reside near/north of the warm front, supporting moderate
    buoyancy from northeast MT into ND. While stronger ascent and
    deep-layer flow may not impinge upon areas north of the front until
    near sunset, organized storms should develop over the higher terrain
    by late afternoon and spread north within a backed mid-level flow
    regime. A few supercells along with an organized cluster or two may
    impinge on the greater downstream buoyancy plume, maintaining
    threats for large hail and severe gusts into Tuesday night.

    ...Eastern NC and southeast VA...
    While confidence is modest with the probable inland evolution of PTC
    8, the bulk signal across guidance is for a weakening low-level wind
    field by Tuesday morning across the NC/VA coastal plain. The
    potential for low-topped supercells capable of brief tornadoes
    appears too low beyond 12Z Tuesday to warrant a risk highlight.

    A mid/upper cyclone is forecast over the Great Basin Tuesday
    morning. This system will pivot northeast across the central Rockies
    and into the northern High Plains through the forecast period. This
    will bring a belt of strong south/southwesterly deep-layer flow
    across CO/WY and adjacent portions of the High Plains. A surface low
    will deepen over MT through the period, with a surface trough
    extending southward through the central/southern High Plains. A warm
    front is forecast to extend west to east from southeast MT into
    north-central SD during the morning. With time, this boundary will
    lift northward toward the International border during the nighttime
    hours. As the system deepens and the low-level baroclinic zone over
    the Plains strengthens, 850-700 mb flow is forecast to markedly
    increase during the afternoon/evening to 30-50 kt. While deeper
    boundary-layer moisture is forecast to remain east of the surface
    trough axis and north of the warm front, steep midlevel lapse rates
    will support pockets of weak to moderate instability. An arc of
    thunderstorm activity, with a mix of line segments and discrete
    cells, are expected to develop in the vicinity of the surface
    low/warm front south/southeast along the surface trough during the
    afternoon and evening hours.

    ...Eastern MT...

    Strong ascent will overspread the region as the upper trough pivots
    northeast during the late afternoon/evening. Boundary-layer moisture
    will be greatest to the north of the warm front across
    north-central/northeast MT, but capping will likely remain in place.
    Storm motion will likely result in convection remaining elevated to
    the cool side of the warm front. Nevertheless, steep midlevel lapse
    rates and favorable vertical shear (elongated/straight hodographs)
    will support some risk for large hail. As stronger forcing and
    sufficient erosion of capping can overlap during the evening, strong
    to severe wind gusts also will be possible.

    ...Northern/Central High Plains Vicinity...

    Convection is expected to develop over the higher terrain of CO/WY
    during the afternoon. Given strengthening mid/upper flow and weak
    instability, some locally strong gusts could occur with this initial
    activity near the core of the upper low over western/central CO. As
    convection shifts east/northeast through the afternoon and into the
    evening, strong heating is expected to result in a steep low-level
    lapse rate environment across the High Plains. While deep
    boundary-layer moisture will remain further east across the Plains,
    steep midlevel lapse rates and surface dewpoints in the 50s F will
    result in a corridor of around 1000-1500 J/kg MLCAPE from far
    eastern CO into parts of western NE/SD. Strengthening midlevel flow
    atop a deeply mixed boundary-layer will likely support severe gusts
    (isolated gusts to 75 mph possible) with linear segments spreading
    northeast across the central High Plains during the late
    afternoon/evening.

    ...Southern High Plains Vicinity...

    Further south, large-scale ascent will be weaker, with stronger
    height falls focused north of the region. Nevertheless, low-level
    convergence along the surface trough and modest instability (up to
    1000 J/kg MLCAPE) will support initial thunderstorm development over
    the higher terrain of south-central CO into north-central NM.
    Forecast soundings show supercell wind profiles across the adjacent
    High Plains by afternoon. Midlevel lapse rates will be somewhat
    modest (around 6.5-7 C/km), but elongated/straight hodographs and
    plenty of instability through the 700-300 mb layer suggest isolated
    hail is possible. Steep low-level lapse rates also will support
    isolated strong to severe gusts.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN THE GREAT
    PLAINS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe wind and hail are possible across a portion of the
    Great Plains during the late afternoon and evening on Wednesday.

    ...Great Plains...
    A vertically stacked cyclone over eastern MT at 12Z Wednesday should
    drift towards the ND/SK/MB border area. A mid-level jetlet of 50-60
    kt winds at 500 mb should be confined within the dry slot, near the
    ND/SD border area on Wednesday afternoon. A dryline should become
    established from the eastern Dakotas to the southern High Plains.
    Remnant convective outflows from overnight to decaying morning
    convection are expected in the confined moist sector ahead of the
    dryline. The primary cold front attendant to the cyclone should
    gradually push east in the Dakotas and eventually merge with the
    retreating dryline early morning Thursday.

    Large-scale ascent ahead of the dryline appears nebulous for
    surface-based storms during the afternoon to early evening.
    Lingering outflows and areas of greater boundary-layer heating
    should serve to focus isolated thunderstorm development. Guidance
    varies greatly with placement of convection given the weak forcing
    for ascent regime. But with a confined plume of moderate MLCAPE from
    1500-2000 J/kg and 30-35 kt effective bulk shear, a conditional
    lower-end supercell environment will exist. Relatively warm
    mid-level temperatures will contribute to weaker lapse rates south
    of the Mid-MO Valley, likely being a mitigating factor to more
    robust updrafts where sustained storms can occur. The bulk of
    guidance, outside of the 00Z GFS and RRFS, suggest sustained storm
    development farther north will primarily be a result of low-level
    warm theta-e advection Wednesday night. As such, severe storm
    coverage will probably remain rather isolated.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PORTIONS
    OF THE GREAT PLAINS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe wind and hail are possible across a portion of the
    Great Plains during the late afternoon and evening on Wednesday.

    ...Great Plains...

    A stacked cyclone will slowly shift east/northeast from eastern MT
    to southern SK/MB on Wednesday into early Thursday. At the surface,
    a dryline will be oriented from the eastern Dakotas into
    western/central NE, then southward across western KS and into the
    OK/TX Panhandle vicinity. With time, a cold front will merge with
    this feature on the northern end across the Dakotas during the
    nighttime hours. Deep-layer south/southwesterly flow will remain
    somewhat enhanced across the northern/central Plains toward the
    Upper Midwest as the mid/upper trough shifts east. Around 30-35 kt
    effective shear magnitudes are forecast along the extent of the
    dryline. Meanwhile, surface dewpoints in the 60s will be maintained
    ahead of the surface boundary in a persistent southerly low-level
    warm advection regime. Midlevel temperatures are forecast to be
    somewhat warm, precluding steeper lapse rates. Nevertheless,
    1000-2000 J/kg MLCAPE is expected, with the greatest instability
    expected near/north of the Mid-MO Valley.

    Weakening convection may be ongoing Wednesday morning in the
    vicinity of the Mid-MO valley, with areas of cloud cover extending
    northward into MN. Where stronger heating occurs, low-level
    convergence along the surface dryline and any remnant outflow
    boundaries may focus thunderstorm development during the afternoon.
    Large-scale ascent will be nebulous, with stronger forcing focused
    near/north of the international border. Instability and shear will
    decrease with southward extent into KS and the southern Plains. This
    will limit coverage and intensity of convection to some degree.
    Nevertheless, isolated strong to severe storms may pose a risk for
    locally damaging gusts and hail.

    Additional thunderstorms may develop overnight as the surface cold
    front overtakes the dryline from the far eastern Dakotas into MN.
    This activity will be driven by warm advection and likely be
    elevated. Severe potential currently appears low beyond the 03-06z
    time frame.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN A PART OF THE
    UPPER MIDWEST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered severe thunderstorms are possible from mid-afternoon to
    mid-evening on Thursday across central/eastern Minnesota, northern
    Iowa, and western Wisconsin. A few tornadoes, isolated very large
    hail, and damaging winds may occur.

    ...Upper Midwest...
    A vertically stacked cyclone near the ND/SK/MB border area on
    Thursday morning will advance northeast across MB through the
    period. Mid-level west-southwesterlies will remain enhanced (35-50
    kt from 700-500 mb) through the afternoon to the south-southeast of
    this cyclone, before the system as a whole weakens and progresses
    farther away from the Upper Midwest. At the surface, a cold front
    will arc south, and progress east over MN/IA. Ahead of the front, a
    confined plume of mid to upper 60s surface dew points will be
    maintained, but will decrease within a drier boundary layer deeper
    into WI and IL. The aforementioned flow regime will yield initially
    steep mid-level lapse rates from 7-8 C/km through early afternoon.
    Coupled with the rich buoyancy plume, moderate to large MLCAPE of
    2000-3000 J/kg appears plausible, northeast of the Mid-MO Valley.

    Guidance spread does exist with the timing and related spatial
    placement of initial thunderstorm development along the front. Some
    models suggest scattered convection should form during the early to
    mid afternoon, while others are delayed until the late afternoon.
    This may be related to the strength of the elevated mixed layer and
    timing of weakened MLCIN. This uncertainty within a limited
    longitudinal extent of greater threat, precludes a level 3-ENH risk.
    The conditional large to very large hail threat appears favorable
    amid a vertically veering wind profile with height that will support
    initial supercells. While some clustering is possible owing to
    frontal convergence, the bulk of severe convection may remain tied
    to semi-discrete supercells given the nearly perpendicular mid-level
    wind profile to the front and moderately enlarged low-level
    hodograph. This should support potential for a few tornadoes as
    well. Clustering should become more prominent after sunset, but the
    severe threat is expected to diminish soon after dusk as activity
    outpaces the nocturnally shrinking buoyancy plume.

    Scattered severe thunderstorms are possible from mid-afternoon to
    mid-evening on Thursday across central/eastern Minnesota, Iowa, and
    western Wisconsin. A few tornadoes, isolated very large hail, and
    damaging winds may occur.

    ...Upper Midwest...
    A seasonably strong stacked cyclone initially near the ND/SK/MB
    border region is forecast to move northeastward through the period.
    An attendant cold front will move eastward through the day across
    parts of the upper Midwest and central Plains. Diurnal heating of a
    rather moist airmass along/east of the front will support a
    relatively narrow zone of moderate to large MLCAPE (1500-3000 J/kg)
    by peak heating. Moderate midlevel flow will support sufficient
    effective shear for storm organization, with shear vectors generally
    aligned perpendicular to the front. This will support supercell
    potential from central/eastern MN into western WI and parts of IA,
    though the timing of initial development and western extent of the
    primary severe threat remain somewhat uncertain.

    Favorable instability and an initially discrete storm mode will
    support large to very large hail as storms mature, along with some
    potential for isolated damaging wind. Low-level hodographs will also
    be sufficiently curved/enlarged to support a tornado threat. A
    tendency toward clustering and perhaps some modest upscale growth is
    possible later in the storm evolution, with a severe threat likely
    persisting into the early/mid evening. The threat should begin to
    wane by late evening into Thursday night, as instability weakens
    with time and eastward extent.

    ...Eastern KS/northern OK into southeast NE/western MO...
    A conditionally favorable storm environment is also expected to
    develop from southeast NE into eastern KS/western MO and northern
    OK, along/ahead of the approaching front. While storm coverage will
    generally be less compared to areas farther north (due to weaker
    large-scale ascent), isolated supercells and/or stronger clusters
    will be possible from late afternoon into the evening. Increasingly
    warm midlevel temperatures will tend to limit updraft intensity with
    southward extent, but an isolated severe threat could extend as far
    south as northern OK.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN A PART OF THE
    MIDWEST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated, marginally severe thunderstorms are possible in the late
    afternoon Friday in parts of Illinois, Indiana, and southwest Lower
    Michigan.

    ...Midwest...
    A low-amplitude shortwave trough will pass across the Upper to
    Central Great Lakes during the first half of the period. This will
    outpace a cold front that trails from a cyclone shifting northeast
    in MB, yielding a largely weakening to stalling front by Friday
    evening. Most guidance suggests at least isolated thunderstorms
    should form within a low-level warm conveyor ahead of the front,
    generally focused on a moderate buoyancy plume emanating northeast
    from parts of MO/AR. A fast westerly upper jet will further impinge
    on this portion of the front as well, favorably timed with peak
    boundary-layer heating. A few marginally severe storms may develop
    within this regime. Despite weak mid-level lapse rates, elongation
    of the mid to upper hodograph should support a threat for 1-1.5 inch
    hail, along with strong to marginally severe gusts from 45-60 mph.
    These threats should diminish quickly after sunset.

    ...Southern High Plains...
    Locally strong gusts are possible during the late afternoon to early
    evening with high-based, low-topped convection amid a weak buoyancy environment. The region will remain between a stout mid-level
    anticyclone over the Lower Rio Grande Valley and a southern-stream
    shortwave trough slowly moving across CA into AZ. Relatively warm
    mid-level temperatures should preclude appreciable storm intensity,
    but well-mixed boundary layers could support sporadic gusts
    approaching severe levels.

    ...Central Great Plains...
    Isolated elevated storms may develop overnight into Saturday morning
    within a strengthening warm theta-e advection regime. Weak mid-level
    lapse rates should temper elevated buoyancy and limit hail potential
    to some extent. But sufficient mid to upper-level speed shear could
    foster small hail production.

    Isolated strong to severe thunderstorms are possible in the late
    afternoon Friday in parts of Illinois, Indiana, and southwest Lower
    Michigan. Isolated strong to severe storms are also possible across
    parts of the south-central Plains.

    ...Midwest...
    A low-amplitude shortwave trough will pass across the Upper to

    within this regime. Despite weak mid-level lapse rates, elongation
    of the mid to upper hodograph should support a threat for 1-1.5 inch
    hail, along with strong to marginally severe gusts from 45-60 mph.
    These threats should diminish quickly after sunset.

    ...Southern KS/northern OK vicinity...
    A mid/upper-level shortwave trough is forecast to move slowly
    eastward across the Southwest on Friday. Farther east, a surface
    boundary initially draped from the lower MO Valley into southern
    KS/northern OK is forecast to lift northward as a warm front.
    Large-scale ascent across much of the Plains may remain relatively
    limited, outside of low-level warm advection near/north of the
    front. However, relatively strong heating along the western/northern
    periphery of returning low-level moisture could support thunderstorm development during the afternoon somewhere in the vicinity of
    southwest KS/northwest OK. Effective shear of 30-40 kt will support
    potential for somewhat organized convection. Strong to localized
    severe gusts may be the most likely hazard, but hail cannot be ruled
    out if any more discrete storms can move into an environment of
    greater moisture/instability.

    ...New Mexico...
    Scattered thunderstorms will be possible across much of NM on
    Friday, in closer proximity to the approaching shortwave trough.
    While deep-layer shear will be rather strong, generally weak
    midlevel lapse rates and buoyancy may tend to limit the potential
    for more robust storms. If confidence increases regarding sufficient heating/destabilization, then severe probabilities may eventually be
    needed for parts of the region.

    ...Central Plains into the lower MO Valley...
    Guidance continues to vary regarding the potential for robust
    elevated convection Friday night into Saturday morning, within a
    low-level warm advection regime. Increasing elevated buoyancy and
    sufficient mid/upper-level flow could support a few stronger storms
    with hail potential, but confidence in sufficient coverage and a
    favored region for this potential is too low for probabilities at
    this time.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
    EASTERN NEW MEXICO AND WESTERN TEXAS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe thunderstorms are possible on Saturday afternoon to
    early evening in New Mexico and the southern High Plains, the mid
    Missouri Valley to upper Mississippi Valley, and central
    Appalachians region.

    ...Southern High Plains vicinity...

    A southern stream upper low and attendant trough will progress east
    across the Four Corners and southern Rockies on Saturday. An area of
    enhanced southwesterly flow aloft associated with the ejecting
    trough will become oriented over eastern NM into the OK/TX
    Panhandles by 00z/Sun. While strong heating will result in some
    boundary layer mixing, south/southeasterly low-level flow will
    result in persistent theta-e advection, and dewpoints from the upper
    50s to low 60s F are expected. Steepening midlevel lapse rates will
    contribute to modest destabilization, with 1000-1500 J/kg MLCAPE
    forecast across parts of eastern NM into the TX Panhandle/South
    Plains vicinity. Vertically veering wind profiles amid strengthening
    midlevel flow will support isolated supercell thunderstorms. Large
    hail and sporadic strong/severe gusts are possible. Given increasing consistency in forecast guidance, a Slight risk (level 2 of 5) has
    been included for parts of the eastern NM Plains into west Texas.

    Additional strong storms are possible to the north and west across
    northeast NM into south-central CO beneath the core of mid/upper
    low. Instability will be weaker across this area, but isolated
    strong gusts and marginal hail will still be possible with the
    strongest storms.

    ...Western PA into northern/central VA...

    A low-amplitude mid/upper shortwave trough is forecast to move
    across the Northeast on Saturday. Northwesterly deep-layer flow will
    overspread the Upper OH Valley toward the Mid-Atlantic coast. A
    corridor of low to mid 60s F dewpoints and pockets of stronger
    heating will support weak destabilization. Modest vertical shear
    (around 20-25 kt effective shear) will aid in at least transient
    organized updrafts. Elongated/straight hodographs and cool
    temperatures aloft suggest marginally severe hail will be possible
    with the stronger cells. Locally strong gusts also will be possible
    where stronger heating and steepening of low-level lapse rates
    occurs.

    ...Central Plains to Mid-MO/Upper MS Valley...

    The forecast for this region remains quite uncertain for Saturday.
    Most guidance depicts some degree of convection ongoing across parts
    of IA/MO Saturday morning. The evolution of this activity will
    impact how the airmass destabilizes/recovers late in the afternoon
    across the region. Nevertheless, large-scale ascent will increase
    over the Upper Midwest as a northern stream upper trough traverses
    the Canadian Prairies and the international border vicinity.
    Southerly low-level flow will maintain 60s dewpoints ahead of a cold
    front tracking southeast across MN and the Mid-MO/Upper MS Valley
    from late afternoon into the evening. Isolated strong to severe
    thunderstorms producing hail and gusty winds will be possible, but
    the overall risk remains uncertain.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
    EASTERN NM AND WEST TX...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered severe storms are possible Saturday afternoon to early
    evening across parts of the southern High Plains. Isolated strong to
    severe thunderstorms are also possible from the mid Missouri Valley
    to the Upper Midwest, and also from western Pennsylvania into
    northern/central Virginia.

    ...Southern High Plains vicinity...
    A southern stream mid/upper-level low and attendant trough will
    progress east across the Four Corners and southern Rockies on
    Saturday. Strong southwesterly flow aloft associated with the
    ejecting trough will become oriented over eastern NM into the OK/TX
    Panhandles by 00z/Sunday. While diurnal heating will result in some
    boundary layer mixing, south/southeasterly low-level flow will
    result in persistent theta-e advection, and dewpoints from the upper
    50s to low 60s F are expected. Steepening midlevel lapse rates will
    contribute to modest destabilization, with 1000-1500 J/kg MLCAPE
    forecast across parts of eastern NM into the TX Panhandle/South
    Plains vicinity. Vertically veering wind profiles amid strengthening
    midlevel flow will support supercells, though a tendency toward
    increasing storm coverage and redevelopment may result in some
    clustering with time. Large hail, sporadic strong/severe gusts, and
    a tornado or two are all possible.

    Additional strong storms are possible to the north and west across
    northern NM into south-central CO beneath the core of mid/upper low. Instability will be weaker across this area, but isolated strong
    gusts and hail will still be possible with the strongest storms.

    ...Western PA into northern/central VA...
    A low-amplitude mid/upper-level shortwave trough is forecast to move
    across the Northeast on Saturday. Northwesterly deep-layer flow will
    overspread the Upper OH Valley toward the Mid-Atlantic coast. A
    corridor of low to mid 60s F dewpoints and pockets of stronger
    heating will support weak to locally moderate destabilization.
    Modest vertical shear (around 25-30 kt effective shear) will aid in
    at least transient organized updrafts. Elongated/straight hodographs
    and relatively cool temperatures aloft suggest marginally severe
    hail will be possible with the stronger cells. Locally strong gusts
    also will be possible where stronger heating and steepening of
    low-level lapse rates occurs.

    ...Central Plains to Mid-MO Valley and Upper Midwest...
    The forecast for this region remains quite uncertain for Saturday.
    Most guidance depicts ongoing elevated convection across parts of
    IA/MO Saturday morning. The evolution of this activity will impact
    how the airmass destabilizes/recovers late in the afternoon across
    the region. Nevertheless, thunderstorm development may increase
    during the afternoon/evening over the Upper Midwest into the mid MO
    Valley, as a northern stream upper trough traverses the Canadian
    Prairies and the international border vicinity, and an attendant
    cold front moves through the region.

    In areas that are not overly affected by early-day convection,
    diurnal heating and relatively steep midlevel lapse rates atop 60s F
    dewpoints will support moderate destabilization, while deep-layer
    shear becomes at least marginally supportive of organized storms.
    Some guidance suggests a cluster of elevated convection may develop
    across Iowa during the morning and intensify as it moves
    east-northeastward. Otherwise, isolated storms may develop near the
    front during the afternoon, with increasing storm coverage into the
    evening. Relatively elongated hodographs will support some hail
    potential with the strongest storms, while localized damaging winds
    will also be possible, especially if any stronger clusters do evolve
    with time.

    Farther south, the magnitude of destabilization into central KS
    remains uncertain and could be rather limited, though increasing
    midlevel flow would support some organized convection if robust
    storms can develop. A strong storm or two also cannot be ruled out
    with morning convection across MO, and again near any outflow
    boundaries during the afternoon/evening. However, confidence remains
    quite low regarding storm evolution in this area.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM WEST TEXAS
    INTO CENTRAL/SOUTHERN MISSOURI...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe thunderstorms are possible on Sunday from west Texas
    to central/southern Missouri.

    ...Southern Plains to Mid-MS Valley...

    Forecast guidance has trended somewhat southward with severe
    potential on Sunday, and the Marginal risk (level 1 of 5) has been
    adjusted to reflect latest model trends.

    An upper shortwave trough over the central/southern Rockies Sunday
    morning will eject east to the mid-MS Valley by Monday morning. This
    will bring a belt of 40-50 kt mid/upper southwesterly flow over the
    region. At the surface, a cold front will develop southeast from
    near Lake Michigan to northwest Texas at midday to the Ohio Valley
    and central Texas by 12z Monday. A seasonally moist airmass will be
    in place ahead of the front, with surface dewpoints in the mid to
    upper 60s F forecast. Some uncertainty remains in where the corridor
    of greater strong/severe storm potential will develop, mainly driven
    by ongoing convection across parts of the region Sunday morning.
    Nevertheless, where pockets of greater heating occur, favorable
    vertical shear and increasing forcing from both the surface front
    and the ejecting midlevel wave, will support organized storm
    development. Damaging gusts will be the main hazard with
    thunderstorm clusters and line segments. However, vertical shear may
    be suitable for a few supercells, especially across west Texas.
    Isolated large hail will be possible with any more discrete cells
    that develop and can be maintained ahead of the front.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM WEST TEXAS
    TO SOUTHERN MISSOURI...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe thunderstorms are possible on Sunday from west Texas
    to central/southern Missouri.

    ...Synopsis...
    A filling mid-level low will move toward the central High Plains on
    Sunday afternoon/evening. Moderate mid-level flow will maintain
    southeast of this low and overspread the Oklahoma/southern Kansas
    vicinity. At the surface, a cold front will extend from southern
    Michigan across Illinois and Missouri and into Oklahoma and Texas.

    ...Southern Missouri across Oklahoma and into West Texas...
    Thunderstorms will likely be ongoing along and ahead of the surface
    front across the TX Panhandle and into Oklahoma and from central
    Kansas, across Missouri, and to southern Illinois Sunday morning. A
    seasonally moist airmass featuring upper 60s to perhaps low 70s
    dewpoints will exist ahead of the surface front Sunday
    afternoon/evening. Surface heating ahead of the front should result
    in moderate instability amid a marginally sheared airmass. A few stronger/organized storms are possible with a primary threat of
    damaging wind gusts, especially where any clustering or line
    segments can develop. Some large hail is also possible, where a few
    supercells are possible across northwest Texas and West Texas.

    The severe threat will be primarily diurnally driven with minimal
    severe concerns after 1-3 UTC.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE OZARKS
    INTO PARTS OF KENTUCKY AND TENNESSEE...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated strong to severe thunderstorms are possible from the Ozarks
    into parts of Kentucky and Tennessee on Monday.

    ...Ozarks to KY/TN...

    An upper shortwave trough from the Mid/Lower MO Valley to the
    southern Plains vicinity will not progress eastward very much on
    Monday. However, enhanced midlevel flow (around 40 kt at 500 mb)
    associated with this feature will overspread the Ozarks to the Lower
    OH and TN Valley vicinity. At the surface, a cold front will develop
    south and east across southern MO and AR, becoming located near the
    MS River by 12z Tuesday. Meanwhile a quasi-stationary surface
    boundary will be oriented west to east near the OH River.

    While a moist boundary layer will exist across the warm sector,
    bounded by these surface fronts, considerable uncertainty remains in
    the Day 2/Mon forecast. This uncertainty is largely driven by
    widespread cloudiness and perhaps areas of ongoing precipitation
    Monday morning, possibly resulting in stunted daytime
    heating/destabilization. Additionally, given the less progressive
    nature of the mid/upper trough, large-scale ascent may remain
    somewhat nebulous/unfocused through peak heating. Nevertheless,
    where pockets of stronger heating and destabilization occur across
    the warm sector, strong to severe storms will be possible given
    moderate vertical shear overspreading the moist boundary layer in
    the presence of a surface boundary. Isolated damaging gusts and
    sporadic hail will be the main hazards with this activity Monday
    afternoon into the evening.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PARTS OF THE
    OZARKS INTO PARTS OF THE TENNESSEE AND LOWER OHIO VALLEYS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated strong to severe thunderstorms are possible from the Ozarks
    into parts of the Tennessee and lower Ohio Valleys on Monday.

    ...Synopsis...
    A broad, positively-tilted trough will slowly progress eastward
    through the central Plains and into the Ozarks/lower Ohio Valley
    vicinity by Tuesday morning. A belt of moderate mid-level flow will
    stretch from near the Red River into Tennessee, Kentucky, and
    southern Illinois/Indiana. Given the nature of the trough, a rather
    weak surface pattern is expected. However, a cold front is expected
    to reside from the southern Great Lakes region into the Ozarks with
    a weak surface low in the Mid-South making some northward progress
    during the period. To the south of the front, a moist airmass should
    remain in place with mid 60s to low 70s F dewpoints.

    ...Ozarks Vicinity...
    Cloud cover and precipitation will likely be present Monday morning.
    The degree of destabilization during the afternoon will be
    uncertain. Model guidance has some confidence in heating into parts
    of central Arkansas, but the northern extent of stronger heating is
    the primary question. With the cold front taking on a more
    north-south orientation in this region, 35-45 kts of effective shear
    across the boundary could promote a more discrete storm mode. Should
    sufficient destabilization occur, isolated large hail and damaging
    winds would be possible. Poor mid-level lapse rates should tend to
    limit overall intensity of most storms.

    ...Portions of Tennessee/lower Ohio Valleys...
    As with areas farther west, there will be some potential for
    precipitation and cloud cover Monday morning, especially with
    northern extent. South of the surface boundary, at least broken
    cloud cover should allow for sufficient heating to promote around
    1500 J/kg MLCAPE by the afternoon. 40-50 kts of shear parallel to
    the boundary will allow some potential for storm organization.
    Damaging winds would likely be the primary threat, though isolated
    large hail is possible in the strongest, discrete storms.

    As the trough moves east and the surface boundary slowly lifts
    northward into Tuesday morning, some stronger elevated activity
    could move into southern Illinois/Indiana during the overnight.
    There is spread in how far north the boundary moves and the degree
    of elevated buoyancy, but some potential for small to marginally
    severe hail and an isolated damaging wind gust will exist.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
    THE OHIO AND TENNESSEE VALLEYS TOWARD THE CENTRAL/SOUTHERN
    APPALACHIANS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe thunderstorms are possible on Tuesday across
    portions of the Ohio and Tennessee Valleys into the central/southern Appalachians.

    ...OH/TN Valleys toward the Central/Southern Appalachians...

    A complicated/messy scenario is unfolding for severe potential on
    Tuesday. Most 00z CAMs and deterministic guidance suggests
    potentially widespread convection may be ongoing Tuesday morning
    across the Ohio Valley vicinity. This will limit heating and
    destabilization across a broad warm sector ahead of an
    eastward-advancing surface cold front. Nevertheless, a deepening
    mid/upper trough will slowly shift east from eastern portions of the central/southern Plains toward the MS River. Strengthening
    deep-layer southwesterly flow will overspread the region, providing
    support for organized convection, with a mix clusters and line
    segments possible.

    Given uncertainty due to morning convection and subsequent airmass destabilization, as well has some disagreement in timing of the
    mid/upper trough, have introduced a rather broad Marginal risk
    (level 1 of 5). Some refinement of this area, and/or potential
    upgrades may be needed in subsequent outlooks if confidence
    sufficiently increases in a more favorable/focused corridor of
    severe potential. Where stronger heating/destabilization can occur,
    damaging gusts will be possible.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PORTIONS OF
    CENTRAL AND EASTERN KENTUCKY...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated to scattered severe thunderstorms are possible on Tuesday
    across portions of the Ohio and Tennessee Valleys into the
    central/southern Appalachians.

    ...Synopsis...
    A lead shortwave trough will be moving through parts of the Ohio
    Valley Tuesday morning with a stronger mid-level jet digging
    southward through the central Plains. Trends in model guidance have
    suggested a stronger large-scale trough across the Midwest over the
    last few cycles. However, the surface pattern still remains a point
    of uncertainty. At least a weak surface low is expected to be
    positioned near the Illinois/Indiana border Tuesday morning. The
    exact position and evolution are not clear, but a general movement
    to the north-northeast is expected. This will aid in slowly pushing
    an effective warm front north in Indiana/Ohio/western Pennsylvania.
    Farther to the west, a secondary, weak surface low is forecast to
    develop in the Texas Panhandle/western Oklahoma. A weak cold front
    will push southward as mid-level jet/trough moves south and
    eastward, respectively.

    ...Central/Eastern Kentucky...
    Confidence in scattered storm coverage has increased. While some
    activity may be ongoing early Tuesday, model guidance generally
    suggested that at least broken heating is possible. Additional
    storms are expected along/ahead of the cold front during the
    afternoon. While mid-level lapse rates will not be overly steep,
    40-50 kts of effective shear should lead to organized storms capable
    of wind damage and isolated large hail. 15% wind probabilities have
    been limited to where the highest confidence in scattered storm
    coverage is. Some adjustments are still possible as details
    regarding low-level destabilization becomes more apparent.

    ...Mid-South into southern Appalachians...
    While low/mid-level forcing will be weaker in these areas, shear
    will still be strong enough to support organized convection along
    the cold front and within the higher terrain. Mid-level lapse rates
    will be modest, but a moist airmass (dewpoints in the upper 60s to
    perhaps low 70s F) will support 1500-2000 J/kg MLCAPE where heating
    occurs. Damaging winds are likely the primary threat, but effective
    shear of 40-45 kts will also support some risk of large hail with
    the strongest storms.

    ...Lower Great Lakes Vicinity...
    Uncertainty in the track of the surface low and effective warm front
    complicate the forecast for this region. Some guidance is more
    aggressive in destabilizing the boundary layer in the wake of early
    day activity. Wind profiles will support supercells capable of
    damaging winds and large hail. Forecast soundings show enlarged
    low-level hodographs near the effective warm front. While the
    tornado threat will be conditional on the degree of destabilization
    and overall storm evolution, a supercell interacting with the
    boundary could produce a brief tornado.

    ...Western Oklahoma Vicinity...
    Some model guidance develops convection along the cold front and
    moves it southward through western Oklahoma. Moisture will likely be
    limited which will likely limit storm intensity if any form at all.
    Gusty winds and small hail could occur with strong northwesterly
    flow and cold temperatures aloft. Uncertainty is too high to
    introduce probabilities at this time.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorm potential is low on Wednesday.

    ...Synopsis...

    An upper low within the base of the larger-scale upper trough
    extending from the Great Lakes to the Lower MS Valley will become
    cut-off from northern stream flow on Wednesday. As this occurs, the
    northern shortwave trough will progress east across the Great Lakes
    and southern Ontario. The developing upper cyclone over the
    Mid-South/Lower MS Valley will not move much through the period.
    However, moderately enhanced southerly deep-layer flow on the
    eastern flank of the cut-off low will persist over the Southeast.
    Meanwhile, latest forecast guidance and NHC forecasts show a
    strengthening tropical cyclone emerging across the eastern Gulf of
    Mexico. This system is forecast to remain well offshore from the
    southwest FL coast through 12z Thursday.

    ...Southeast...

    A stalled surface boundary/inverted trough will extend from near
    coastal MS/AL northeast across the central Appalachians. Near and
    east of this boundary, south/southeasterly low-level flow will
    maintain a very moist airmass with dewpoints from the mid 60s to low
    70s F. Potentially widespread convection may be ongoing Wednesday
    morning across portions of this area, limiting destabilization.
    Despite vertical shear that may otherwise support organized
    convection, weak instability and poor lapse rates will limit severe
    potential, though the strongest cells may produce locally gusty
    winds.

    Further south across the FL Peninsula, southeasterly low to midlevel
    flow will increase, especially after 00z, as the developing tropical
    cyclone emerges into the eastern Gulf. Forecast soundings show
    enlarged, favorably curved low-level hodographs developing late in
    the period. However, instability across the Peninsula is expected to
    remain weak through early Thursday morning. At this time, tropical
    cyclone related tornado potential appears limited through 12z
    Thursday.

    ...Upper OH Valley/Lower Great Lakes vicinity...

    A cold front will move east/southeast across the Lower Great Lakes
    during the afternoon and into the overnight hours. Ahead of this
    feature, a corridor of 60s F dewpoints will be in place. However,
    surface heating is expected to be muted by cloud cover and showers.
    As a result, instability will be weak and lapse rates will remain
    poor, precluding severe thunderstorm potential.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe thunderstorms capable of damaging gusts and/or brief
    tornadoes are possible from southeast Alabama into the western
    Florida Panhandle, and across much of the Florida Peninsula.

    ...Synopsis...
    An amplified upper pattern, featuring a ridge extended from northern
    Mexico through the northern High Plains and a trough extended from
    Ontario into the Lower MS Valley, will cover the CONUS early
    Wednesday. Bifurcation of the upper trough is anticipated throughout
    the period, with a northern shortwave trough remaining progressive
    as it moves across eastern Ontario into southern Quebec, and a
    southern upper low stalling over the Mid-South vicinity. The
    stalling of the southern upper low will occur as subtropical ridging
    builds across the western Atlantic and a tropical cyclone enters the
    eastern Gulf of Mexico. Latest forecast guidance from NHC for this
    tropical cyclone, which was recently upgraded to Tropical Storm
    Helene, suggests the storm will reach hurricane strength during the
    day Wednesday, with additional strengthening to major hurricane
    strength by early Thursday morning.

    Farther west, a progressive shortwave trough is forecast to move
    quickly across southern British Columbia and the Pacific Northwest,
    ending the period over the northern Rockies.

    At the surface, a weak front will likely extend from a low over the
    Lake Huron vicinity southward through middle TN before arcing more southwestward to another low in southeast TX. Western portion of
    this front over TX and LA is forecast to remain progressive, pushing southeastward to the western Gulf Coast by Wednesday evening.
    Eastern portion of the front will stall, maintaining a more
    north-south orientation from northern AL through southern Lower MI.

    ...Upper OH Valley through the southern Appalachians into AL, GA,
    and FL Panhandle Wednesday morning into the evening...
    A belt of enhanced southwesterly flow aloft is forecast to extend
    through the eastern periphery of the upper low developing over the
    Mid-South from the FL Panhandle northward into the Upper OH Valley.
    Widespread showers and thunderstorms are anticipated within this
    warm conveyor, reaching as far north as western A. However, poor
    lapse rates and limited destabilization should mitigate the overall
    severe potential across the majority of this region.

    An area of locally higher severe potential is anticipated within a
    spatially constrained corridor from southeast AL into far southwest
    GA and the western FL Panhandle, just west of the primary axis of
    precipitation anticipated within the warm conveyor. Here, a mix of
    low 70s dewpoints, modest heating, and moderate mid-level flow could
    result in a few thunderstorms capable of damaging gusts and/or a
    brief tornado or two.

    ...Much of the FL Peninsula...
    Rainbands associated with tropical cyclone Helene are forecast to
    move across the FL Peninsula throughout the period. At the same
    time, low to mid-level flow attendant to the cyclone will increase
    as the cyclone and its expansive wind field spread northward. As a
    result, vertical shear will be strong enough to support organized
    storm structure. Primary mitigating factor is warm, poor lapse rate
    profiles that limit buoyancy. Brief tornadoes will be possible
    within any updrafts that are able to mature/persist.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS
    SOUTHEAST GEORGIA INTO THE SOUTHERN SC COASTAL VICINITY...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Tropical Cyclone Helene is forecast to move inland across northern
    Florida and Georgia on Thursday. A risk for tropical-cyclone
    tornadoes will accompany this system, particularly from the central
    Florida Peninsula into southeast Georgia and parts of the Midlands
    and Low Country of South Carolina.

    ...FL/GA/SC/southeast NC...

    Latest forecast track guidance from the National Hurricane Center
    has Helene making landfall in the vicinity of the Florida Big Bend
    Thursday evening. As the storm tracks northward across the eastern
    Gulf of Mexico, low and mid level flow fields will increase from
    central FL into southeast GA and coastal SC during the day. Forecast
    soundings from most forecast guidance show very large, favorably
    curved low-level hodographs for rotating supercells within
    convective bands well east/northeast of the center of Helene.
    Surface dewpoints are forecast to increase into the mid 70s F,
    resulting in greater than 125 J/kg 0-3 km MLCAPE from north FL into
    southeast GA and southern coastal SC. Furthermore, looking at
    historical tropical cyclone tornado data, adjusting for the expected track/storm motion of Helene and even distance from the center,
    previous cyclone analogs have produced several tornadoes within the
    favored northeast quadrant. Given a consistent, favorable signal
    across ensemble, deterministic, CAMs and calibrated guidance, an
    Enhanced risk (level 3 of 5) has been included, driven by a 10
    percent tornado probability, across southeast GA into southern
    coastal SC.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS SOUTHEAST
    GEORGIA AND THE SOUTH CAROLINA COASTAL VICINITY...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Tropical Cyclone Helene is forecast to move inland across northern
    Florida and Georgia on Thursday. A risk for tropical-cyclone
    tornadoes will accompany this system, particularly from the central
    Florida Peninsula into southeast Georgia and parts of the Midlands
    and Low Country of South Carolina.

    ...FL/GA/SC/southeast NC...
    Latest forecast track guidance from the National Hurricane Center
    has Hurricane Helene over the eastern Gulf of Mexico (about 225
    miles west-southwest of SRQ) early Thursday morning. This system is
    forecast to continue northward and make landfall in the FL Big Bend
    vicinity just east of AAF Thursday evening. As the storm moves
    northward throughout the day, the strong wind field accompanying it
    will expand northward as well, beginning over the FL Peninsula
    Thursday morning before reaching into GA during the afternoon and
    into SC by Thursday evening. These increased winds will result in
    long, looping hodographs with more than enough low-level shear to
    support tornadogenesis. As such, buoyancy-related updraft
    strength/persistence will be the primary factor determining
    thunderstorm severity and overall tornado potential and frequency.

    Initial rainbands will likely be impacting the west coast of the FL
    Peninsula at the beginning of the period before gradually spreading northward/northeastward throughout the day as the system moves
    northward. Tornadoes are most likely within the low-topped
    convection within these rainbands, so a low-probability tornado risk
    will begin early across the FL Peninsula before spreading
    northeastward over time. A relatively greater tornado risk is
    anticipated later, with best overlap between these rainbands and the
    strong low/mid-level flow beginning over FL during the late
    afternoon and moving into GA and SC during the evening and
    overnight. Highest tornado potential is still anticipated across
    coastal GA and SC Low Country after 00Z Friday.

    ...Southern New England/Hudson Valley...
    A compact upper low is forecast to progress eastward across southern
    Quebec and adjacent portions of New England on Thursday. Strong
    large-scale forcing for ascent will aid in the development of a
    convective line during the afternoon from southern New England into
    the Hudson Valley. Buoyancy will be modest, but enhanced mid-level
    flow through the base of the upper low will support moderate to
    strong deep-layer vertical shear. Consequently, a few stronger
    storms capable of damaging gusts are possible. Overall coverage of
    damaging gusts is currently expected to remain below 5%.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PORTIONS OF
    THE CAROLINAS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A risk for a few tornadoes and damaging thunderstorm wind gusts
    exists from the central Appalachians into the Carolinas and southern
    Virginia on Friday.

    ...Central Appalachians and Southern Mid-Atlantic...

    The expansive, enhanced low/midlevel flow field on the eastern
    periphery of the remnants of Hurricane Helene will impact the
    central Appalachians east to portions of coastal SC/NC/southern VA
    through Friday afternoon/evening. Convective bands will likely be
    ongoing Friday morning across the Pee Dee region of SC, and lift
    northward through the afternoon. As a dry slot punches quickly
    north/northeast behind this band of convection, the severe risk will
    quickly come to an end from south to north by late afternoon or
    early evening. Supercell wind profiles, with enlarged, looping
    low-level hodographs are evident in forecast soundings around the
    region. Strong 0-1 km SRH and surface dewpoints in the mid 70s F
    (resulting in favorable low-level instability) will support a
    tornado risk with cells within the northward moving convective
    bands. Furthermore, given the already strong low-level flow field,
    strong thunderstorm wind gusts also will be possible.

    ...TN/OH Valley vicinity...

    Strong winds will likely occur from the central Appalachians
    westward across the OH/TN Valley vicinity as Helene tracks
    north/northwest and becomes absorbed by the mid/upper cyclone over
    the Mid-South region. However, these gusty winds will be tied to the transitioning tropical system, and less influenced by convective
    processes, precluding severe probabilities.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN A PART OF
    THE NC/SC COASTAL PLAIN...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Tornadoes will be most likely during the morning and remain possible
    into the afternoon on Friday, across parts of the Carolinas and
    southern Virginia, in association with Tropical Cyclone Helene.

    ...Carolinas/VA...
    TC Helene is forecast by NHC to become a tropical storm by 12Z
    Friday as it quickly progresses inland over the Southeast. This
    cyclone will further weaken as it rotates around and becomes further
    absorbed with an existing closed mid-level low over the Deep South.
    The associated low-level wind field, coincident with a rich tropical
    moisture plume on the eastern semicircle, will be strongest at the
    start of the period and weaken appreciably during the afternoon.
    Hodograph enlargement will be pronounced in the morning, but should
    still remain adequate for a tornado threat into the afternoon.

    A lower-topped convective band will be ongoing at 12Z, most likely
    centered over the Pee Dee of SC to the Piedmont of the NC/SC border
    area. This should advance quickly north through the rest of the
    morning into the afternoon across the NC Piedmont/Coastal Plain and
    southern VA. The greatest relative tornado threat should be along
    the NC/SC border area near the coast through late morning. As a dry
    slot punches rapidly north-northeast behind this band of convection,
    the severe risk will come to an abrupt end from south to north.
    Shrinking hodographs within the rich tropical moisture plume should
    result in a more spatially confined/waning threat later in the day.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are not expected on Saturday.

    ...Synopsis...
    The upper-level low across the Ohio Valley will be in the process of
    weakening on Saturday. There will be a lingering mid-level jet
    across parts of Southeast into the southern Appalachians. However,
    dry air wrapping into the Southeast, along with remaining cloud
    cover and precipitation, should keep convection shallow and
    surface-based buoyancy to a minimum.

    Rich moisture will remain across much of the Florida Peninsula.
    Sufficient surface heating is expected to promote the development of
    isolated thunderstorms during the afternoon. Poor lapse rates aloft
    and the displacement of the stronger mid-level winds well to the
    north will keep severe potential low with this activity.

    A pocket of mid-level moisture in the Four Corners vicinity may
    promote some convection in the higher terrain of south-central
    Colorado into north-central New Mexico. Forecast soundings suggest
    most convection will not be deep enough for charge separation except
    perhaps on an isolated basis. Thunderstorm potential should remain
    below 10%.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are not expected on Saturday.

    ...Synopsis and Discussion...
    Upper low resulting from interaction between Tropical Cyclone Helene
    and a mid-latitude cyclone will begin the period over the Lower OH
    Valley. Some very modest eastward progression of this system is
    forecast throughout the day. A surface low will be stacked beneath
    the upper low, with modest low-level moisture arcing cyclonically
    around this low from GA and Carolinas into the OH Valley. Despite
    the presence of this low-level moisture, relatively warm profiles
    will promote stable conditions, and deep convection is not
    anticipated.

    Farther south across the FL Peninsula, ample low-level moisture
    (i.e. dewpoints in the mid 70s) will help support modest buoyancy as temperatures warm into the upper 80s/low 90s amid strong daytime
    heating. Weak low-level convergence will foster afternoon
    thunderstorm development within this destabilized airmass. Weak
    shear should keep the severe-thunderstorm potential low.

    Expansive upper ridging that covers much of the Southwest and
    extends into the northern Plains is forecast to remain largely in
    place on Saturday. Modest moisture, characterized by PW values near
    0.75", is expected beneath this ridging from the Four Corners
    vicinity into the central/southern Rockies. Some deeper convection
    is possible during peak heating across the southern Rockies, but
    forecast soundings suggest most convection will not be deep enough
    for charge separation except perhaps on an isolated basis.
    Thunderstorm potential should remain below 10%.

    ...Synopsis...
    An upper-level low in the Tennessee/mid Ohio Valleys will make
    little progress eastward on Sunday. This low will be weakening and
    in the process of becoming and open wave during the period. Ridging
    aloft will be the main feature in the Southwest into the Midwest,
    while a strong upper-level trough will be present in the
    Northwest/northern Rockies. At the surface, the pattern will become
    more disorganized beneath the upper low as that features weakens. A
    front will remain along and just offshore of the eastern coastline.

    Thunderstorms are possible from the Florida Peninsula into the
    Carolinas and southern parts of Virginia. Some modest mid-level flow enhancement will remain in parts of the Southeast and Carolinas. A
    stronger storm or two could potentially develop in central/eastern
    North Carolina as heating appears it could support around 1000 J/kg
    MLCAPE. However, weak lapse rates/warm temperatures aloft will keep
    buoyancy generally limited and convection rather shallow. The
    expected environment continues to suggest severe thunderstorm
    potential is low. A few isolated lightning flashes may also occur in
    central Utah as a weak upper-level shortwave moves into the Great
    Basin. Coverage is expected to remain below 10%.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms appear unlikely on Sunday.

    ...Eastern Great Basin...
    Very isolated thunderstorm development is possible on Sunday
    afternoon amid scattered high-based, low-topped convection. A
    low-amplitude mid-level low currently off the southern CA coast
    should progress into southern CA before stalling Sunday night. Weak
    forcing for ascent combined with recycled 700-mb moisture within the
    Four Corners States may be adequate for a 10 percent chance of
    thunderstorms. The more moist spectrum of guidance suggests buoyancy
    will remain scant. Even with the low thunder probability, very large
    surface temperature-dew point spreads will support dry microburst
    potential and locally strong gusts.

    ...Upper OH Valley to the Lower Mid-Atlantic...
    Ahead of the positive-tilt mid/upper trough drifting east across
    KY/TN, isolated lower-topped thunderstorms will be possible, mainly
    during Sunday afternoon. Mid-level temperatures will be relatively
    warm east-southeast of the trough and cooler to the northeast.
    Boundary-layer warming will be more limited with northern extent
    amid abundant cloud coverage and early-day showers. As such,
    instability will be weak regionwide. A confined belt of stronger
    mid-level southwesterlies should be over GA into the Carolinas.
    Within this sub-region, the warm temperatures and poor lapse rates
    aloft will probably hold thunder probs around 10 percent or less,
    yielding negligible severe concern.

    Severe thunderstorms are not expected on Monday.

    ...Synopsis...
    A weakening, positively-tilted upper trough will continue eastward
    in the central/southern Appalachians on Monday. On the southern
    flank of this trough, mid-level winds will remain modestly enhanced
    from Georgia into parts of the eastern Carolinas. Thermodynamic
    profiles across the region suggest convection should remain rather
    shallow due to warmer temperatures at mid/upper levels. This will
    particularly be the case with northern/western extent closer to the
    remnant upper level circulation. A few deeper updrafts are possible
    near the eastern coast of North Carolina. Despite adequate shear,
    weak lapse rates aloft and minimal forcing for ascent will limit
    potential for severe storms.

    Across the Florida Peninsula, a moist airmass will remain in place.
    Daytime heating and ascent along the sea breeze boundary will
    promote isolated to scattered storm development during the
    afternoon. Weak shear will limit severe potential, however.

    Though limited, mid-level moisture within the upper-level ridge will
    allow isolated thunderstorms to develop within the higher terrain in
    the Four Corners vicinity. Slightly greater coverage may be realized
    in central Colorado where PWAT values are forecast to be higher.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are not expected on Monday.

    ...Southern VA and the Carolinas...
    A weakening, positive-tilt mid/upper trough will slowly move
    eastward over the central/southern Appalachians on Monday.
    Thermodynamic profiles across the region suggest convection should
    remain shallow due to relatively warm temperatures at mid/upper
    levels, especially along/south of the quasi-stationary front arcing
    from central/southern NC to southern WV. Overall thunderstorm
    coverage should be quite isolated.

    On the southeast flank of the trough, mid-level southwesterlies will
    remain enhanced from GA to southern NC. Adequate deep-layer shear
    with moderate straight-line hodograph elongation should be present
    near the southeast NC vicinity of the front. But poor mid-level
    lapse rates (around 4-5 C/km) will temper hail growth.

    ...FL Peninsula...
    Rich low-level moisture combined with ascent along the sea breeze
    should promote isolated to widely scattered thunderstorms during the
    afternoon. Weak shear will limit organized severe potential.

    ...Southwest...
    Limited mid-level moisture within the upper-level ridge may be
    adequate for very isolated thunderstorms from the southern Rockies
    to the Mogollon Rim. Consensus of model soundings suggest buoyancy
    should be scant at most, with high-based, low-topped convection.
    Gusty, erratic surface winds are possible within dry microbursts.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are not expected on Tuesday.

    ...Discussion...
    Scattered thunderstorms are possible on Tuesday afternoon across the
    central FL Peninsula where a moderately buoyant air mass persists. A low-amplitude upper impulse will pass to its north across the
    Southeast, but deep-layer shear is expected to remain weak. In
    combination with marginal mid-level lapse rates, the severe-storm
    threat appears negligible.

    Across eastern NC to far southeast VA, a weakening shortwave trough
    will progress across the region and offshore Tuesday evening/night.
    Isolated thunderstorms will remain possible through the afternoon.

    Over the central to lower Great Lakes, a vigorous shortwave trough
    will move across ON and the northern Great Lakes. A surface cold
    front ahead of this trough will similarly move eastward, reaching
    Lower MI to IN by afternoon. With surface dewpoints in the low 60s,
    meager surface-based buoyancy should develop ahead of the front. But
    warm 700-mb temperatures and weak mid-level lapse rates, especially
    with southern extent along the front, suggest instability will
    remain limited and thunderstorm coverage will be sparse. With the
    bulk of stronger mid/upper flow lagging behind the front, severe
    storms are not anticipated.

    Limited mid-level moisture from the Mogollon Rim into southern AZ
    may promote very isolated thunderstorms during the afternoon.

    Severe thunderstorms are not expected on Wednesday.

    ...Synopsis...
    Zonal flow aloft will develop across the northern CONUS while
    upper-level ridging will be present in the south on Wednesday.
    Thunderstorms are most likely to occur in the Florida Peninsula
    where daytime heating of a moist airmass and lift from sea breeze
    boundaries should promote widely scattered to scattered coverage.
    Weak convection could develop along the Blue Ridge, but increasing
    ridging aloft through the day should keep thunderstorm potential
    well below 10%. Additional very isolated activity could develop
    along parts of the Mogollon Rim, but coverage should remain below
    10% here as well.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are not expected on Wednesday.

    ...Discussion...
    Quasi-zonal flow aloft will prevail across most of the northern half
    of the U.S. Wednesday, while weak ridging affects the southern half
    of the country.

    A remnant cold front extending from the western Atlantic into the
    Gulf of Mexico will keep the moist/tropical airmass suppressed, with
    a dry airmass expected across the U.S. away from the Atlantic and
    Gulf Coast states.

    Thunderstorm potential will remain similarly suppressed, mainly near
    and south of the cold front across the Florida Peninsula. Very weak
    lower to middle tropospheric flow across this area precludes any
    appreciable severe risk.

    Elsewhere, thunderstorms are not anticipated.

    A quasi-zonal upper-level jet will be present across the northern

    Thunderstorms are most likely to the south of the Gulf Coast
    boundary. Scattered storms can be expected during the afternoon in
    the Florida Peninsula. Towards Friday morning, a weak disturbance
    should promote thunderstorms from southeast Louisiana into the
    Florida Panhandle. An isolated storm or two is possible in northern
    Missouri overnight Thursday as elevated instability develops in the
    area. Very weak forcing will keep coverage below 10% should
    initiation occur. Severe weather is not expected with any activity.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are not expected on Thursday.

    ...Discussion...
    Weak flow aloft will prevail across the southern half of the U.S.
    Thursday, where general ridging aloft will prevail. Over the
    northern half of the country, faster flow will reside, with a trough
    forecast to progress across the north-central states and eventually
    reach the Upper Great Lakes.

    At the surface, a cold front will advance eastward across the Great
    Lakes, and more slowly southward across the Plains. Meager
    low-level moisture is expected ahead of this front, however, with
    the richer/tropical moisture remaining confined to the Southeast and
    Gulf Coast states. Thus, lack of appreciable instability should
    preclude thunderstorm activity with this front.

    As a weak disturbance aloft drifts northward out of the central Gulf
    of Mexico and into the central Gulf Coast states, showers and
    scattered thunderstorms are expected to evolve, from the mouth of
    the Mississippi River to Florida. However, weak flow aloft will
    preclude any appreciable risk for severe weather through the period.

    Severe thunderstorms are not expected on Friday.

    ...Synopsis...
    Stronger flow aloft will continue to be confined to the northern
    tier of the CONUS on Friday. Two shortwave troughs will progress
    through this corridor. One will move from the upper Great Lakes into
    the Northeast while another will shift through the Northwest into
    the northern Rockies. Ridging aloft will be maintained in the
    southern two-thirds of the CONUS. A remnant surface boundary will be
    situated along the Gulf Coast. Another cold front will be draped
    from the Great Lakes into the central Plains.

    A few thunderstorms may be ongoing early Friday morning in the
    Mid-Mississippi Valley, as modest cooling aloft occurs on the
    southern flank of the passing shortwave and weak warm advection
    occurs with the low-level jet. Additional thunderstorms are possible
    with a weak northward-moving disturbance in the central/southern
    Appalachians as well as along the weak Gulf Coast boundary.
    Diurnally driven storms are likely in the Florida Peninsula. Severe thunderstorms are not expected with any of this activity.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are not expected on Friday.

    ...Discussion...
    A fast/progressive upper flow field will persist across the northern
    third of the U.S. Friday, while ridging generally prevails over the
    southern two-thirds of the country. Once exception will be a weak
    upper disturbance shifting out of the northern Gulf of Mexico, which
    will partially phase with a northern-stream trough crossing the
    Great Lakes region. By the end of the period, this trough will
    reach New England and the Atlantic Coast.

    At the surface, a cold front will cross the northern Intermountain
    region and eventually emerge into the northern Plains, ahead of a
    trough embedded in the fast northern-stream flow field aloft.
    Otherwise, a rather nondescript surface pattern will prevail
    elsewhere.

    At low levels, tropical moisture will be confined to the Gulf and
    Southeast Coasts. Lesser moisture -- dewpoints in the upper 50s to
    low 60s -- will extend northward across the Tennessee, Ohio,
    Mid-Mississippi, and Mid Missouri Valleys, but weak lapse rates
    aloft across these areas will yield only modest destabilization.

    Greatest thunderstorm potential will extend from the Texas Coastal
    Plain eastward across the Southeast -- aided by ascent associated
    with the aforementioned southeastern U.S. upper disturbance phasing
    with a northern-stream trough, and other vorticity maxima extending
    westward across the Gulf and into northern Mexico. Elevated showers
    and a few thunderstorms will also be possible early in the period
    over the northeastern Missouri/southeastern Iowa/northern Illinois
    area. In all of these locales, severe weather is not expected.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Potential for severe storms appears low on Saturday.

    ...Upper Midwest into the Upper Great Lakes...
    Northern-stream shortwave trough is forecast to move quickly
    eastward from the Canadian Prairies and adjacent northern High
    Plains through western Ontario and the Upper Midwest on Saturday.
    This shortwave is expected to mature as it progresses eastward, with
    the resulting closed mid-level cyclone over northwestern Ontario by
    early Sunday morning. An associated surface low will accompany this
    system, moving eastward across the central portion of Canadian
    Prairie Provinces and ending the period stacked beneath the
    mid-level low over northwestern Ontario. Cold front attendant to
    this surface low will push eastward across the northern and central
    Plains through the Upper Midwest. By 12Z Sunday, this front will
    likely extend from central Lower MI southwestward through central MO
    before then turning more westward and extending along the OK/KS
    border vicinity.

    Warm-air advection will gradually increase within the warm sector
    ahead of the front throughout the period. Low to mid-level
    moistening from this warm-air advection coupled with cooling
    mid-level temperatures will result in elevated buoyancy across the
    Upper Midwest and Upper Great Lakes from Saturday evening into
    Sunday morning. Isolated thunderstorms are possible within this
    region as a result. Enhanced mid-level flow associated with the
    shortwave trough will spread into the region during the evening as
    well, supporting moderate to strong deep-layer vertical shear.
    However, the cloud-bearing layer shear values will be more modest
    (i.e. around half of the bulk shear values), and the resulting
    combination of modest buoyancy and shear will likely result in
    predominantly sub-severe thunderstorms.

    ...Gulf Coast...
    Showers and thunderstorms are expected across the Gulf Coast and FL
    Peninsula throughout the period as low-level easterlies persist
    within a very moist airmass. Limited buoyancy and weak shear should
    keep the severe-thunderstorm potential low.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PORTIONS

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated strong to severe thunderstorms may produce hail and gusty
    winds across parts of northern Wisconsin into the Upper Peninsula of
    Michigan Saturday evening.

    ...Great Lakes...

    A potent upper shortwave trough over the northern High Plains will
    shift east on Saturday, becoming positioned over the Great Lakes by
    Sunday morning. A strong 70+ kt southwesterly 500 mb jet will
    overspread the Upper Midwest as the trough shifts east. Meanwhile,
    cooling aloft will lead to a plume of steep midlevel lapse rates
    across WI/MI by late afternoon/evening. Low-level inhibition will
    limit surface-based instability, but cool temperatures aloft and
    increasing midlevel moisture will support MUCAPE values around
    1500-2000 J/kg.

    A cold front extending south from a deepening low over Manitoba and
    western Ontario will shift east across the Upper Midwest during the
    day and into the evening, becoming oriented from central Lower MI to
    northern OK by 12z Sunday. A warm advection regime ahead of the
    upper trough, coupled with increasing instability and moderate
    vertical shear will support thunderstorm development near the front
    by late afternoon/early evening. A few organized cells may produce
    strong gusts and marginal hail across parts of northern WI into the
    U.P. of MI during the evening, and a Marginal risk (level 1 of 5)
    has been included with the Day 2 update.

    ...Gulf Coast...

    East to northeast low-level flow will persist over the Gulf, where a
    very moist airmass (70s F dewpoints) will be in place along the
    coastal regions from TX eastward across Florida. Sufficient
    instability will support thunderstorm potential, especially along
    any sea breeze boundaries where low-level convergence will be
    enhanced. Overall instability will remain modest, with poor lapse
    rates forecast and limited vertical shear, precluding severe
    thunderstorm concerns.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM EASTERN
    OHIO INTO MUCH OF WEST VIRGINIA...WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA AND WESTERN
    NEW YORK...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated strong to severe thunderstorms are possible Sunday
    afternoon and evening across parts of the western New York and
    Pennsylvania into West Virginia.

    ...Upper Ohio Valley/Lower Great Lakes vicinity...
    A mid-latitude cyclone is forecast to begin the period over central
    Ontario, with enhanced mid-level flow extending throughout the base
    of this system from the Upper Midwest into the Upper Great Lakes and
    OH Valley. A pair of shortwave troughs are expected to progress
    quickly eastward/northeastward within this belt of stronger flow,
    helping to pull the cyclone eastward while also inducing a negative
    tilt to the system. By early Sunday, upper troughing will likely
    extend from the Ontario/Quebec border southeastward into the
    northern Mid-Atlantic.

    Primary surface low associated with this system will remain occluded
    over Ontario throughout the period. However, a secondary
    triple-point low will likely be over central Ontario early Sunday,
    with its associated cold front extending southwestward through the
    Mid MS Valley. This low is forecast to push eastward across eastern
    Ontario during the day, with the cold front progressing
    eastward/southeastward as well. A narrow corridor of low 60s
    dewpoints is anticipated just ahead of the cold front, which is
    expected to combine with cooling mid-level temperatures and foster
    modest buoyancy. Initial thunderstorm development along the front is anticipated across eastern OH, where a favorable combination of
    daytime heating and low-level moisture will destabilize the
    pre-frontal airmass.

    Moderate to strong mid-level flow will extend across the region as
    well, which should allow updrafts to stay ahead of the quick-moving
    cold front for at least a few hours. Cold mid-level temperatures and
    moderate deep-layer vertical shear will support a hail risk with the
    strongest updrafts, particularly with initial development. Bowing
    line segments will contribute to a threat for damaging gusts as
    well. Surface winds will likely veer ahead of the front, limiting
    the low-level curvature. Even so, forecast soundings show
    southwesterlies strengthening from 15 kt at the surface to 40 kt at
    700 mb, which does result in enough storm-relative helicity for some
    tornado potential if a discrete mode can be maintained.

    ...Gulf Coast into the Coastal GA and FL Peninsula...
    Easterly/northeasterly low-level flow will persist for another day
    across the northern Gulf of Mexico, as a broad area of low pressure
    remains in place. Showers and thunderstorms are possible within the
    moist airmass, but weak shear should keep storm severity low.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS EASTERN
    OHIO...WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA AND NEW YORK...AND THE NORTHERN WEST
    VIRGINIA PANHANDLE...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe thunderstorms are possible Sunday afternoon and
    evening across parts of eastern Ohio, western New York and
    Pennsylvania, and West Virginia.

    ...Upper Ohio Valley/Lower Great Lakes vicinity...

    An upper trough over the Upper Midwest/Great Lakes will develop east
    on Sunday, becoming oriented from James Bay to the Mid-Atlantic
    coast by Monday morning. As the trough shifts east, a belt of 45-60
    kt westerly flow from 700-500 mb will overspread the Upper Ohio
    Valley/Lower Great Lakes vicinity. At the surface, a cold front will
    develop east across much of the Midwest, extending across central OH
    to southern MO/IL by midday. A narrow corridor of low 60s F
    dewpoints will develop ahead of the cold front across the Upper Ohio
    Valley. Cooling aloft/steepening midlevel lapse rates will overlap
    modest boundary-layer moisture to support a belt of 500-1500 J/kg
    MLCAPE along/just ahead of the eastward-advancing cold front.

    Forecast soundings show mostly unidirectional southwesterly
    deep-layer flow as low-level winds are expected to veer ahead of the
    cold front. However, near-surface winds around 15 kt will rapidly
    increase with height to 40-50 kt around 700 mb. This will provide
    sufficient low-level hodograph curvature and SRH such that a tornado
    or two will be possible with any initial semi-discrete supercells
    that can develop. However, the cold front is expected to progress
    east fairly quickly and bowing line segments will become more likely
    with time, supporting a risk for damaging gusts. Isolated large hail
    also is possible, mainly early in storm evolution when storm mode
    will be more favorable.

    While overall spatial/temporal extent of severe potential will be
    somewhat limited, the overall environment supports introducing a
    Slight risk (level 2 of 5) with this outlook cycle.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated to scattered thunderstorms will be possible across parts of
    the Florida Peninsula on Monday, but no severe thunderstorms are
    expected.

    ...DISCUSSION...
    A shortwave trough is forecast to move across New England on Monday,
    as a cyclonic flow regime remains over much of the northeastern
    third of the nation. At the surface, a cold front is forecast to
    advance southeastward into the Carolinas, Georgia and central Gulf
    Coast. Ahead of the front, a moist airmass will be in place with
    surface dewpoints across the Florida Peninsula in the 60s and low
    70s F. As surface temperatures warm during the day, weak
    destabilization is expected. In response, isolated to scattered
    thunderstorms will be possible in some areas across the Florida
    Peninsula Monday afternoon. Instability is not expected to be strong
    enough across the Florida Peninsula for a severe threat.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated to scattered thunderstorms will be possible across parts of
    southern New England and the Florida Peninsula on Monday, but severe thunderstorms are not expected.

    ...Synopsis...

    An upper trough will deepen over the Great Lakes and spread east
    over the Northeast on Monday. Meanwhile, a surface cold front will
    shift east/southeast across much of the eastern and southeastern
    U.S. through early Tuesday. Isolated thunderstorms may be ongoing
    across parts of southern New England Monday morning ahead of the
    cold front. This activity should move offshore by midday/early
    afternoon and pose little risk for severe thunderstorms. The front
    will become stalled over north FL, with a moist (60s to low 70s F
    dewpoints) airmass across much of the Peninsula. Daytime heating
    will allow for modest destabilization, supporting isolated to
    scattered thunderstorm activity, particularly south of the Lake
    Okeechobee vicinity. Weak instability and poor lapse rates will
    preclude severe thunderstorm potential.

    Meanwhile, Milton is forecast by the National Hurricane Center to
    become a hurricane today (Sunday). The tropical system will
    strengthen on Monday as it tracks across the south-central Gulf of
    Mexico. However, Milton should remain far enough west of the Florida Keys/southwest FL that tropical cyclone related tornado activity is
    not expected through early Tuesday morning.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE
    CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN FLORIDA PENINSULA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    An isolated tornado threat, associated with Milton, may develop
    Tuesday night into Wednesday morning across the central and southern
    Florida Peninsula.

    ...Synopsis and Discussion...
    Cyclonic flow aloft is forecast to persist from the Upper MS Valley
    off the Northeast Coast on Tuesday, as the parent mid/upper cyclone
    remains largely in place over western Quebec. Farther west,
    expansive upper ridging, initially extending from the Southwest into
    the Canadian Prairies, will gradually build northeastward. A weak
    shortwave trough is forecast to move through the western periphery
    of this ridging from central CA into the western Great Basin.

    Surface pattern across much of the central and eastern CONUS will be
    dominated by high pressure while seasonably warm conditions persist
    across much of the western CONUS. A flash or two is possible across
    the western Great Basin amid isolated high-based convection
    attendant to the weak shortwave trough progressing through the
    region.

    Stable conditions are expected across the majority of the central
    and eastern CONUS. The only exception is across FL, where a tropical
    airmass will be in place ahead of Hurricane Milton. Milton is
    forecast by the National Hurricane Center to be a Major Hurricane as
    it moves across the central Gulf of Mexico on Tuesday. Strengthening
    low to mid-level winds associated with this cyclone are expected to
    spread across the FL Keys by late Tuesday night and across much of
    the west coast of the FL Peninsula by early Wednesday morning. Outer
    rainbands associated with Milton could be moving into these areas at
    the same time, resulting in a low-probability potential for a few
    tornadoes.

    ...SUMMARY...
    An isolated tornado threat, associated with Hurricane Milton, may
    develop Tuesday night into Wednesday morning across the central and
    southern Florida Peninsula and the Keys.

    ...Florida...

    No changes have been made to the Marginal risk (level 1 of 5) across
    parts of the FL Peninsula and Keys on Tuesday into early Wednesday.

    Major Hurricane Milton is forecast by the National Hurricane Center
    to track northeast on Tuesday, coming closer to the FL west coast by
    the end of period/Wednesday morning. As the system develops
    northeast across the eastern Gulf, strengthening low and midlevel
    southerly flow will overspread the Keys into the southern/central
    Peninsula, mainly after the 03z-06z time frame. As this occurs,
    low-level SRH will increase, resulting in enlarged and favorably
    curved hodographs and supporting rotation within cells in the far
    outer bands of Milton. Surface dewpoints in the mid 70s F are
    already in place, and will provide sufficient low-level instability
    to support the potential for a couple of tornadoes late Tuesday
    night into early Wednesday.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE CENTRAL
    AND SOUTHERN FLORIDA PENINSULA AND FLORIDA KEYS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A few tornadoes are possible across the Florida Peninsula and
    Florida Keys as Hurricane Milton moves through on Wednesday.

    ...Synopsis...
    A strong shortwave trough and associated cold mid-level temperatures
    are forecast to progress across Ontario, the Great Lakes, and the
    Northeast, moving through the base of a large cyclone centered over
    western Quebec throughout much of the period. Progression of this
    shortwave will induce a eastward shift to the parent cyclone, taking
    it over the St. Lawrence Valley by early Thursday. To the west of
    this cyclone, expansive upper ridging will extend from the Southwest
    into the Canadian Prairies early Wednesday. This ridging is expected
    to shift eastward into more of western Ontario and the Upper
    Midwest. A weak shortwave trough will likely move within this
    broader ridging over the Mid MO Valley.

    A flash or two is possible within some high-based convection
    near the CO/NM border as well as the TX Panhandle/western OK, but
    the overall coverage is currently expected to be less than 10% in
    these areas. Primary forecast concern for Wednesday is the evolution
    of Hurricane Milton and attendant tornado threat.

    ...FL Peninsula - Hurricane Milton...
    Hurricane Milton, which is currently centered about 35 miles
    north-northwest of Progresso, Mexico, is forecast to continue
    northeastward through the eastern Gulf of Mexico, approaching the
    west-central FL coast by Wednesday evening. This system is then
    expected to continue east-northeastward across the central FL
    Peninsula Wednesday night through Thursday morning. Low to mid-level
    flow is expected to increase across the peninsula throughout the
    day, substantially elongating hodographs. Mid 70s dewpoints will
    also result in modest buoyancy. Some added buoyancy is also possible
    via daytime heating and cloud breaks over the central and southern
    peninsula given the slower storm speed and smaller structure. While
    its difficult to know the timing and structure of any convective
    bands, potential exists for some of these bands to be favorably
    timed with peak heating. All of these factors suggest a tornado
    threat will exists within any deeper, more sustained convection.

    For additional information regarding Milton, including the latest
    track and additional hazards, please refer to the latest
    forecasts/updates from the National Hurricane Center.

    Florida Keys as Hurricane Milton moves across the eastern Gulf of
    Mexico and Florida on Wednesday into early Thursday.

    ...Florida...

    The latest National Hurricane Center forecast calls for Hurricane
    Milton to make landfall along the west-central Florida coast
    Wednesday night or early Thursday. As the hurricane tracks northeast
    across the eastern Gulf on Wednesday, low to midlevel southeasterly
    flow will increase across the Keys and Peninsula. This will result
    in increasing SRH and enlarged, looping low-level hodographs amid a
    very moist airmass (mid 70s F dewpoints). The increasing flow field
    across Florida will coincide with peak heating, resulting in
    sufficient instability to maintain isolated stronger updrafts within
    outer rainbands that may approach the area by afternoon. Favorable
    conditions for a few tropical cyclone related tornadoes will persist
    into the nighttime hours.

    OF THE CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN FLORIDA PENINSULA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A few tornadoes will remain possible across the central and southern
    Florida Peninsula on Thursday.

    ...Synopsis...
    A cyclone is forecast to be over ME/Canadian Maritime Provinces
    early Thursday morning. Troughing associated with this cyclone will
    extend southward along the East Coast, with Tropical Cyclone Milton
    within the far southern periphery of this cyclonic flow. This
    cyclone is expected to shift northeastward into the northern
    Atlantic, with Milton ejecting quickly northeastward into the
    western Atlantic as well. Stable conditions are expected across the
    majority of the eastern CONUS in the wake of this cyclone,
    precluding thunderstorm development. The only exception is across
    the FL Peninsula in the vicinity of Milton.

    Expansive upper ridging is expected to be in place from the
    Southwest into the Upper MS Valley and far northwestern Ontario
    Thursday morning. Northern periphery of this ridging is expected to
    dampen throughout the period in response to a shortwave trough
    moving through the Canadian Prairie Provinces. Additionally, a
    low-amplitude shortwave trough embedded within the larger scale
    ridging will likely drift southward from the central Plains into OK.
    A few elevated thunderstorms are possible across
    south-central/southeast KS and central OK Thursday morning amid the
    modest low/mid-level moistening and cold mid-level temperatures
    attendant to this shortwave.

    ...FL Peninsula - Hurricane Milton...
    Current forecast from the National Hurricane Center has Milton
    maintaining hurricane strength as it moves across the central FL
    Peninsula Thursday morning. Given the expected early morning
    position, wind fields will likely have veered across the central and
    southern peninsula where the best low-level moisture, and associated
    greatest buoyancy, will be in place. Even so ample speed shear will
    support enough low-level curvature to support rotation and a
    low-probability tornado risk within any deeper, more persistent
    convection.

    ...SUMMARY...
    A brief tornado or two remains possible during the late morning
    Thursday along the east-central to northeast Florida coast.

    ...FL Peninsula...
    Latest NHC forecast has Milton approaching the Space Coast at 12Z
    Thursday. Convective bands, outside of the inner core near the
    center, will likely be offshore of the FL Peninsula by this time.
    This appears to be a highly consistent signal across the 12Z HREF
    and experimental CAM guidance. As such, tornado potential related to
    Milton will be substantially diminished by mid-morning tomorrow, and
    may already by negligible by the start of the D2 period. A
    low-probability brief tornado risk might linger for a few hours into
    late morning, where low-level SRH remains enlarged to the northeast
    of the center, along a portion of the east-central to northeast
    coast. Farther south, increasingly warm/dry mid-levels coupled with
    veered low-level flow suggest the tornado threat will remain
    negligible.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are not expected on Friday.

    ...Synopsis and Discussion...
    A belt of enhanced westerlies is forecast to extend from the
    Canadian Prairie Province eastward across Ontario and southern
    Quebec into New England throughout the day on Friday. A shortwave
    trough embedded within these westerlies is forecast to progress
    quickly eastward across Ontario and Quebec and adjacent portions of
    the Upper Midwest and Upper Great Lakes. An associated surface low
    will move across Ontario just ahead of this shortwave, with an
    attendant cold front pushing southeastward across the
    northern/central Plains, the Upper/Mid MS Valley, and the Upper
    Great Lakes. Scant low-level moisture is expected ahead of this low,
    limiting the thunderstorm potential along most of the front. Some
    modest buoyancy may develop across the Upper Great Lakes region
    where low to mid-level moisture is expected to increase amid cooling
    mid-level temperatures. This may result in deep enough updrafts for
    a few lightning flashes between 18Z and 00Z.

    Farther south, a low-amplitude shortwave trough is expected to drift southeastward from OK into the Lower MS Valley. Cold mid-level
    temperatures will accompany this shortwave, and lingering warm-air
    advection showers and thunderstorms may result in a few lightning
    flashes across eastern OK and northeast TX Friday morning.

    Lastly, upper 60s to low 70s dewpoints are expected to persist
    across central and southern FL throughout the period. Some showers
    are likely throughout the day amid confluent low-level northeasterly
    flow. However, warm temperatures aloft will limit storm depth
    throughout much of the period across the region. The environment
    across south FL is expected to become more conducive to deep
    convection late Friday night/early Saturday morning as mid-level
    temperature cool slightly and low-level flow trends more
    southeasterly. Consequently, a few flashes are possible across south
    FL and/or the Keys after 00Z.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are not expected on Friday.

    ...Great Lakes into New England...
    A mid/upper-level shortwave trough and attendant jet maximum are
    forecast to move quickly east-southeastward across the Great Lakes
    vicinity through the day, and then reach New England by later Friday
    night. A cold front will move across parts of the Great Lakes, upper
    Midwest, and eventually parts of the Northeast in conjunction with
    this system.

    Scant low-level moisture is expected ahead of the front, limiting
    the thunderstorm potential across much of the warm sector. Very
    modest buoyancy may develop across the Great Lakes region during the
    afternoon, and into northern New England late Friday night, where
    low to mid-level moisture is expected to increase amid cooling
    mid-level temperatures. This will result in the potential for weak
    convection with sporadic lightning flashes.

    At this time, there is a somewhat stronger signal for thunderstorm
    potential across parts of WI/MI, where a general thunderstorm area
    has been maintained. A few flashes cannot be ruled out into New
    England Friday night, though this potential is more uncertain.
    Low/midlevel flow will be rather strong, so locally gusty winds will
    be possible if any relatively deep and sustained convection can
    develop across the region.

    ...Elsewhere...
    Elevated convection that may develop late in the D1/Thursday period
    across OK and north TX could persist into Friday morning, with some
    thunder potential. Convection may become deep enough to support some thunderstorm potential across the FL Keys, and possibly into
    southern portions of the FL Peninsula. A mid/upper-level shortwave
    trough will move into parts of central/northern CA and the Pacific
    Northwest, but thunderstorm potential across the region currently
    appears limited due to very weak instability.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    The risk for severe thunderstorms appears negligible across the U.S.
    Saturday through Saturday night.

    ...Synopsis...
    Strong cyclogenesis appears underway near the Aleutians and, by
    early Saturday, models indicate that a broad, deep cyclone will
    become centered across the northeastern Pacific/Gulf of Alaska, to
    the east of the Aleutians. This is forecast to lead to amplifying
    flow across the northern mid-latitudes of North America, including
    building mid-level ridging to the east of the Canadian Rockies and
    digging downstream mid-level troughing across the eastern Canadian
    Prairies into the Upper Midwest by the end of the period.

    In lower latitudes, a modest mid-level trough likely will be forced
    inland across the Oregon/northern California coast, suppressing
    initial mid-level ridging across the Great Basin into southern
    Rockies. Downstream, in the wake of the weakening remnants of
    Milton, forecast to continue migrating east-northeastward through
    the subtropical Atlantic, a remnant weak frontal zone, initially
    near or just south of the Florida Keys, is forecast to weaken
    further. It appears that this will occur beneath generally steady
    or slowly rising mid-level heights, as a sheared mid-level
    perturbation shifts across and offshore of northern Florida.

    Seasonably moisture air will generally remain confined to the south
    of the weakening frontal zone, but some low-level moistening is
    forecast along an initially quasi-stationary segment of a frontal
    zone, to the north of the lower Missouri and Ohio Valleys by early
    Saturday.

    ...Portions of the Midwest into upper Ohio Valley...
    Models suggest that weak forcing for ascent and warm mid-levels will
    suppress thunderstorm development along and south of the initially quasi-stationary frontal zone. However, downstream of the southern
    periphery of the digging mid-level troughing, weak destabilization
    rooted within lower/mid-tropospheric warm advection may contribute
    to thunderstorm development within a narrow corridor above the
    frontal zone/well to the north of the surface front, mainly Saturday
    night. Given the generally weak forecast instability and

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    CORRECTED FOR TYPO IN SYNOPSIS

    ...SUMMARY...
    The risk for severe thunderstorms appears negligible across the U.S.
    Saturday through Saturday night.

    ...Synopsis...
    Strong cyclogenesis appears underway near the Aleutians and, by
    early Saturday, models indicate that a broad, deep cyclone will
    become centered across the northeastern Pacific/Gulf of Alaska, to
    the east of the Aleutians. This is forecast to lead to amplifying
    flow across the northern mid-latitudes of North America, including
    building mid-level ridging to the east of the Canadian Rockies and
    digging downstream mid-level troughing across the eastern Canadian
    Prairies into the Upper Midwest by the end of the period.

    In lower latitudes, a modest mid-level trough likely will be forced
    inland across the Oregon/northern California coast, suppressing
    initial mid-level ridging across the Great Basin into southern
    Rockies. Downstream, in the wake of the weakening remnants of
    Milton, forecast to continue migrating east-northeastward through
    the subtropical Atlantic, a remnant weak frontal zone, initially
    near or just south of the Florida Keys, is forecast to weaken
    further. It appears that this will occur beneath generally steady
    or slowly rising mid-level heights, as a sheared mid-level
    perturbation shifts across and offshore of northern Florida.

    Seasonably moist air will generally remain confined to the south of
    the weakening frontal zone, but some low-level moistening is
    forecast along an initially quasi-stationary segment of a frontal
    zone, to the north of the lower Missouri and Ohio Valleys by early
    Saturday.

    ...Portions of the Midwest into upper Ohio Valley...
    Models suggest that weak forcing for ascent and warm mid-levels will
    suppress thunderstorm development along and south of the initially quasi-stationary frontal zone. However, downstream of the southern
    periphery of the digging mid-level troughing, weak destabilization
    rooted within lower/mid-tropospheric warm advection may contribute
    to thunderstorm development within a narrow corridor above the
    frontal zone/well to the north of the surface front, mainly Saturday
    night. Given the generally weak forecast instability and
    cloud-bearing layer shear, the potential for severe hail in stronger
    storms seems low.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    The severe-thunderstorm threat appears low on Saturday.

    ...Parts of the Midwest and Ohio Valley...
    A large-scale mid/upper-level trough will begin to amplify across
    parts of the north-central into the eastern CONUS on Saturday, as a
    shortwave trough and attendant jet maximum move southeastward from
    the Canadian Prairies into the northern Plains and upper Midwest. A
    surface low is expected to develop during the day near the IA/MO/IL
    border region, along a quasi-stationary surface front. This low is
    forecast to move eastward along the front toward the upper Ohio
    Valley during the afternoon and evening, as a trailing cold front
    begins to move southeastward.

    While modest low-level moistening and steepening midlevel lapse
    rates will support weak to locally moderate destabilization
    along/south of the front, potential for warm-sector storm
    development still appears limited in the absence of more robust
    moisture return. However, low-level warm/moist advection will
    support potential for elevated convection to the north of the front,
    especially from late afternoon into the evening across northern
    IL/IN, northwest OH and far southern lower MI. Gradually deepening
    deep-layer flow/shear could support transient storm organization,
    though with only modest elevated buoyancy (MUCAPE generally 500-1000
    J/kg) currently expected north of the front, potential for severe
    hail is too uncertain to include probabilities at this time.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS LATE SUNDAY
    AFTERNOON AND EVENING ACROSS MUCH OF WEST VIRGINIA...PARTS OF
    EASTERN KENTUCKY...SOUTHWESTERN VIRGINIA AND ADJACENT PORTIONS OF
    SOUTHERN OHIO...SOUTHWESTERN PENNSYLVANIA AND NORTHEASTERN
    TENNESSEE...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Strong thunderstorms may develop in a corridor across West Virginia,
    and perhaps into portions of eastern Kentucky and southwestern
    Virginia, late Sunday afternoon and evening. Some may be
    accompanied by small to marginally severe hail and potentially
    damaging wind gusts.

    ...Synopsis...
    Mid/upper flow across the northern mid-latitudes of the Pacific into
    North America will remain amplified through this period, with
    further amplification of large-scale troughing forecast across the
    Upper Midwest and Great Lakes into the Ohio Valley. Models indicate
    at least of couple of vigorous short wave perturbations digging
    within this troughing, one of which may contribute to modest surface cyclogenesis along a frontal zone across the Ohio Valley into the
    Northeast by late Sunday night.

    In lower latitudes, a residual mid-level shear axis across the
    central Gulf of Mexico and Florida Peninsula will generally
    demarcate the northern periphery of higher moisture content air.
    However, a continued gradual moistening of the boundary layer ahead
    of the interior U.S. front may contribute to a corridor of modest destabilization across parts of the Ohio/Tennessee Valleys into the
    western slopes of the Appalachians by late Sunday afternoon.

    ...West Virginia into eastern Kentucky/southwest Virginia...
    There remains variability among the models concerning the evolution
    of surface cyclogenesis across the Ohio Valley into the Northeast
    Sunday through Sunday night. However, there still appears a general
    consensus that a moistening, but well-mixed, boundary layer will
    become characterized by CAPE on the order of 500-1000 J/kg by late
    Sunday afternoon, within at least a narrow pre-frontal corridor
    across Tennessee/Kentucky into West Virginia. It appears that peak destabilization will coincide with strengthening westerly deep-layer
    wind fields, including to 50+ kt in the 700-500 mb layer. Forcing
    for ascent in advance of stronger mid-level height falls, which may
    not begin overspreading the region until after dark, remains more
    unclear. However, a developing pre-frontal low-level upslope flow
    component may aid thunderstorm initiation across parts of West
    Virginia, and perhaps into eastern Kentucky and southwestern
    Virginia by early Sunday evening. If this occurs, the environment
    probably will be conducive to a few stronger storms posing a risk
    for hail and potentially damaging wind gusts.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PORTIONS OF
    THE CENTRAL APPALACHIANS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Strong thunderstorms cannot be ruled out in a corridor across West
    Virginia, and perhaps into portions of eastern Kentucky and
    southwestern Virginia, late tomorrow (Sunday) afternoon and evening.
    Small to marginally severe hail and potentially damaging wind gusts
    are the main concerns.

    ...Synopsis...
    A mid-level trough will amplify across the eastern half of the CONUS
    as a 500 mb cut-off low meanders over the Interior West and a second
    upper trough impinges on the West Coast tomorrow (Sunday). A surface
    low will translate across the eastern OH Valley and Mid Atlantic
    states during the day, promoting deep-layer ascent amid just enough
    moisture return to support thunderstorm development (a couple of
    which may be strong). Meanwhile, steep lapse rates associated with
    the 500 mb low over the Four Corners, in conjunction with adequate
    surface heating and orographic lift, may support isolated
    thunderstorm development. Daytime heating of a moist airmass may
    also encourage the development of a few thunderstorms over the
    southern FL Peninsula.

    ...Central Appalachians...
    As the surface low progresses toward the Mid Atlantic, a cold front
    will sag southeastward across the eastern OH Valley into the central Appalachians by afternoon peak heating, providing lift for at least
    isolated thunderstorm development. Surface dewpoints are expected to
    only reach the mid 50s F. However, 7+ C/km low and mid-level lapse
    rates may support over 1000 J/kg SBCAPE, that combined with rapidly strengthening vertical wind profiles and 35+ kts of effective bulk
    shear, may support organized multicells immediately ahead of the
    cold front. A couple of damaging gusts or instances of small to
    marginally severe hail cannot be ruled out with the stronger storms.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    The risk for thunderstorms appears negligible across much of the
    U.S. Monday through Monday night.

    ...Synopsis...
    Latest model output indicates little change from prior runs for this
    period, with the mid-latitude westerlies forecast to remain modestly
    amplified but generally progressive Monday through Monday night.
    Within this regime, it appears that initially more prominent ridging
    over the Canadian Prairies will begin to break down. As the ridge
    axis takes on a more notable positive tilt (toward Hudson Bay), the
    axis of large-scale downstream troughing will gradually do the same
    across the eastern U.S. into the Canadian Maritimes.

    Within the cyclonic flow, a significant lead short wave impulse
    remains forecast to be accompanied by strengthening
    lower/mid-tropospheric cyclogenesis near the north Atlantic Seaboard
    into the Canadian Maritimes/St. Lawrence Valley. As a similar
    trailing perturbation digs across the international border and Upper
    Midwest, toward the lower Missouri and Ohio Valleys, cool surface
    ridging is forecast to build southward into much of the interior
    U.S. by the end of the period.

    It appears that the leading edge of the cold intrusion will advance
    through the south Atlantic and Gulf Coast states, well south of the
    mid-level cold core (shifting across the upper Great Lakes) and
    upper support for large-scale ascent, with little appreciable risk
    for thunderstorms. As flow trends cyclonic across the Gulf of
    Mexico into subtropical Atlantic, an embedded residual mid-level
    shear axis, demarcating the northern periphery of a remnant plume of
    tropical moisture, likely will gradually shift southeast of the
    southern Florida Peninsula and Keys.

    Across the West, large-scale mid-level ridging may continue to
    develop inland of the Pacific coast through the Rockies. However, a
    weakening low initially over the Great Basin may generally be
    maintained while slowly digging southeastward, to the west and
    southwest of the Four Corners region. Mid/upper forcing for ascent
    and cooling to the northeast of this feature may contribute to
    sufficient destabilization to support convection capable of
    producing lightning across the higher terrain of Utah/adjacent
    northern Arizona into eastern Colorado Monday afternoon and evening.

    which may support deep-enough convection to foster a few lightning
    flashes (especially over water). Cooler temperatures aloft will also

    ...SUMMARY...
    The risk for thunderstorms appears negligible across much of the
    nation Tuesday through Tuesday night.

    ...Discussion...
    Latest model output is not much different from prior runs for this
    period. Large-scale mid-level troughing appears likely to continue
    to gradually amplify across the eastern U.S., as a significant
    embedded short wave perturbation digs southeast of the lower
    Missouri and Ohio Valleys. Peak amplitude may be reached along a
    positively tilted axis near the Atlantic Seaboard around or after
    12Z Wednesday.

    In association with this regime, expanding cold surface ridging is
    forecast to encompass much of the interior U.S. into northern Gulf
    of Mexico and south Atlantic seaboard, with its center shifting from
    the northern Great Plains Red River Valley through the central Great Plains/lower Missouri Valley by late Tuesday night, in the wake of
    the short wave.

    To the west, a lead short wave impulse, within larger scale
    troughing on the leading edge of a somewhat more progressive regime
    emerging from the mid-latitude Pacific, may reach the British
    Columbia coast and Pacific Northwest vicinity by late Tuesday night.
    With its approach, modest surface cyclogenesis may commence to the
    immediate lee of the Canadian and northern U.S. Rockies.

    Deep-layered moisture, characterized by high precipitable water in
    excess of 2 inches, is forecast to generally remain confined to
    portions of the southeastern Gulf of Mexico and near/south of the
    Florida Keys Tuesday through Tuesday night. While some elevated
    moisture return is possible across the northwestern Gulf coast into
    parts of the southern Great Plains, generally stable conditions are
    expected to prevail across much of the nation to the east of the
    Rockies.

    One possible exception may persist beneath the mid-level cold core
    (including 500 mb temperatures below -30C) shifting southeast of the
    upper Great Lakes region into the Ohio Valley during the day.
    Beneath this regime, boundary-layer warming may contribute to
    diurnal convective development which might become capable of
    producing occasional lightning.

    While generally stable conditions persist across much of the West,
    modest moistening, beneath a remnant pocket of relatively cool air
    aloft and large-scale ascent across the Four Corners region, might
    also support scattered weak thunderstorm activity Tuesday afternoon
    and evening.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are not expected on Tuesday.

    ...Synopsis...
    A deep, positively tilted upper-level trough will remain in place
    over the central/eastern CONUS on Tuesday, with an embedded
    shortwave trough forecast to dig southeastward from the Midwest/Ohio
    Valley into the Southeast and Mid Atlantic by Tuesday night. Across
    the West, a weak midlevel cyclone over parts of Arizona is forecast
    to move little through the period, while a deeper mid/upper-level
    trough and embedded shortwaves begin to affect the Pacific
    Northwest. Low-level moisture and instability will generally be
    limited across the CONUS, with an expansive surface ridge keeping
    richer moisture confined to parts of the immediate Gulf Coast and
    Florida Peninsula.

    A southward-moving cold front will impinge upon the richer moisture
    through the day, but with stronger large-scale ascent displaced well
    to the north, thunderstorm potential along the front appears
    relatively limited. A storm or two cannot be ruled out across parts
    of the north-central FL Peninsula (especially in close proximity to
    the east and west coasts), and also across extreme southeast LA, but
    coverage is expected to remain quite isolated at best. Isolated
    storms will also be possible across parts of the FL Keys and far
    southern peninsula, where deeper tropical moisture will be in place.
    Some instability will spread southward along the TX Gulf Coast, and
    potentially inland into south-central TX, but confidence in storm
    development across this area prior to 12Z Wednesday remains low.

    Otherwise, isolated to widely scattered thunderstorms will be
    possible across the Four Corners region, near and northeast of the
    midlevel cyclone over Arizona. Cold midlevel temperatures (less than
    -10C at 700 mb) will support convection capable of sporadic
    lightning flashes in the vicinity of southern Lake Michigan, Lake
    Erie, and parts of the Ohio Valley into the central Appalachians.
    Guidance currently suggests that thunderstorm potential associated
    with the Pacific Northwest trough will largely remain offshore,
    though very isolated lightning flashes cannot be ruled out near
    northwest WA by the end of the forecast period.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered weak thunderstorm activity is possible across the Pacific
    Northwest into portions of the Great Basin and Rockies Wednesday
    afternoon into evening. Additional thunderstorm development is
    possible across Deep South Texas and near or south of the Florida
    Keys.

    ...Discussion...
    Models indicate that flow will remain generally progressive across
    the mid-latitude Pacific into western North America through this
    period, and large-scale mid-level troughing appears likely to
    continue developing inland of the Pacific coast through much of the Intermountain West, Rockies and northern Great Plains. Within this
    regime, one significant short wave impulse is forecast to progress
    inland of the British Columbia coast and across the Canadian Rockies
    by late Wednesday night, while a similar trailing impulse digs into
    the northern Pacific coast. A remnant perturbation already inland
    to the southwest of the Four Corners region is forecast to become
    absorbed within the evolving larger-scale cyclonic flow across the Wyoming/Colorado Rockies, after being forced northeastward.

    Downstream, developments remain somewhat more unclear near the
    Atlantic Seaboard, as a mid-level ridge becomes increasing prominent
    over the subtropical Atlantic. Initially amplified large-scale
    troughing along a positively tilted axis across the Atlantic
    Seaboard still appears likely to reach peak amplitude near or just
    before 12Z Wednesday, but guidance now appears to be trending a bit
    less progressive with a short wave perturbation emerging from the
    base of the troughing. It appears that this feature may contribute
    to the evolution of a modest mid-level low just offshore of the Mid
    Atlantic coast, while a trailing perturbation digs across the
    eastern Gulf Coast region. However, associated surface wave
    development is still forecast to remain along a frontal zone well
    east of the Mid Atlantic coast.

    As the evolving upper pattern supports deepening surface troughing
    to the east of the Canadian/northern U.S. Rockies, the center of
    initially expansive cold surface ridging to the east of the Rockies
    is forecast to shift from the central Great Plains/lower Missouri
    Valley to the lower Ohio/Tennessee Valleys vicinity. However, the
    ridge likely will maintain a considerable stabilizing influence
    across much of the Gulf Coast region and northwestern Gulf of
    Mexico. Inland of the lower Rio Grande Valley, low-level moistening
    is forecast to remain limited, and generally elevated to the east of
    the higher terrain of southwestern Texas into New Mexico.

    ...Florida Keys and Deep South Texas vicinities...
    While the front over the western Atlantic tends to slowly advance
    away from much of the Atlantic Seaboard, its trailing flank is
    forecast to stall near or southeast of the Florida Keys, and weaken
    across the south central Gulf of Mexico through lower Texas
    coast/Rio Grande vicinity. Seasonably high boundary-layer moisture
    content along this zone could support moderately large CAPE and
    widely scattered thunderstorm activity.

    ...Pacific Northwest into eastern Great Basin/adjacent Rockies...
    Despite limited moisture availability, mid/upper forcing for
    ascent, cooling aloft and orography may contribute to scattered weak thunderstorm activity Wednesday afternoon and evening.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Organized severe thunderstorms are not currently expected on
    Wednesday.

    ...Synopsis...
    A mid/upper-level low is forecast to develop on Wednesday near
    coastal NC/VA, within the trailing portion of an amplified and
    positively tilted trough covering much of the eastern CONUS. A cold
    front will continue moving southward across Deep South TX, the
    northern/central Gulf of Mexico, and Florida. Elsewhere, a weakening
    midlevel low initially over AZ will move northeastward as a
    shortwave trough, as it becomes absorbed in large-scale cyclonic
    flow associated with a deepening mid/upper-level trough over the
    western CONUS.

    Limited moisture/instability across most of the CONUS will limit the
    organized severe-thunderstorm threat. Richer moisture in the
    vicinity of the frontal zone will support thunderstorm potential
    across Deep South TX, and also into parts of far south FL and the
    Keys. Isolated to perhaps widely scattered thunderstorms will be
    possible from eastern UT into western CO and vicinity, in
    association with the ejecting shortwave trough. Multiple embedded
    shortwaves within the amplifying large-scale trough may also support
    weak convection with sporadic/isolated lightning flashes from
    northeast CA into northern NV and the interior Northwest, and also
    near the Pacific Northwest coast.

    ...Deep South Texas...
    Deepening moisture in the vicinity of the frontal zone will result
    in moderate destabilization across parts of Deep South TX,
    especially in closer proximity to the Gulf Coast. Storms may develop
    near the coast during the morning, with increasing storm coverage by
    afternoon. MLCAPE potentially increasing into the 1000-1500 J/kg
    range could support a couple strong storms within this regime.
    However, with generally weak deep-layer flow/shear forecast across
    the region, organized severe potential appears limited at this time.

    ...Far south FL and the Keys...
    Limited frontal convergence and weak large-scale ascent will tend to
    limit storm coverage in the vicinity of the front across parts of
    FL. However, at least isolated storm development will be possible
    across far south FL and the Keys, where deeper tropical moisture
    will remain in place. Weak midlevel lapse rates and only modest
    deep-layer shear will tend to limit storm intensity, but a strong
    storm or two cannot be ruled out during the afternoon and evening.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    The risk for severe thunderstorms appears negligible across the U.S.
    Thursday through Thursday night.

    ...Discussion...
    Models indicate that mid/upper flow will become increasingly split
    across western North America during this period, as initially
    consolidated large-scale troughing progresses inland. One notable
    embedded short wave trough is forecast to continue pivoting across
    and north/northeast of the Canadian Prairies, while a similar
    trailing perturbation digs inland of the northern Pacific coast,
    through areas near/east of the Sierra Nevada into the southern Great Basin/lower Colorado Valley by 12Z Friday.

    To the east of the Rockies, the primary and secondary surface
    cyclogenesis likely will accompany the lead impulse into the higher
    latitudes of interior Canada. The trailing cold front may surge
    east of the Canadian Prairies through much of northwestern Ontario
    by late Thursday night, while stalling northwest of the upper Great
    Lakes region through the northern Great Plains Red River Valley, the
    Black Hills vicinity, and the higher terrain of southern
    Wyoming/northern Colorado into the southern Great Basin.

    Downstream, beneath building mid-level ridging to the west of
    confluent mid-level troughing east of the Appalachians into the
    western Atlantic, the center of expansive cold surface ridging is
    forecast to be maintained over the Ohio Valley/central Appalachians
    vicinity. This ridging appears likely to maintain a considerable
    stabilizing influence as far south as the northern Gulf of Mexico
    and Gulf coast vicinity.

    ...Pacific coast into Great Plains...
    It still appears that relatively warm layers aloft, and the lack of
    sufficient low-level moisture return, will preclude an appreciable
    risk for thunderstorm activity near the lingering modestly deep
    surface troughing/cold front across the northern Great Plains into
    Front Range vicinity. However, large-scale forcing for ascent and
    cooling aloft, spreading across the Pacific Northwest into the Great
    Basin and Rockies Thursday through Thursday night, probably will
    contribute to sufficient destabilization to support scattered areas
    of weak thunderstorm activity.

    ...Synopsis...

    An upper trough will deepen as it shifts east across the northern
    Rockies and Great Basin on Thursday. Meanwhile, an amplified upper
    ridge will envelop much of the CONUS east of the MS River as an
    upper low moves offshore the Mid-Atlantic coast. At the surface,
    strong high pressure beneath the upper ridge will be centered over
    the Ohio Valley. A prior cold frontal passage and
    north/northeasterly low-level flow will result in Gulf moisture
    remaining well offshore. A strong baroclinic zone will be oriented
    from the Upper Midwest toward the southern High Plains with surface
    low development expected across the Great Basin with the approach of
    the upper trough. Boundary-layer moisture will remain scant, but
    cooling aloft as the upper trough progresses eastward will support
    enough elevated instability such that isolated thunderstorms will be
    possible from the Pacific Northwest coast into the Great Basin and central/southern Rockies vicinity. Severe thunderstorms are not
    expected.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FRIDAY NIGHT
    ACROSS PARTS OF EASTERN NEW MEXICO...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Strong thunderstorms are possible Friday night across parts of
    eastern New Mexico near the Sangre de Cristo and Sacramento
    Mountains. Some may pose a risk for small to marginally severe hail,
    locally damaging wind gusts, and perhaps a tornado.

    ...Synopsis...
    Models continue to indicate that a vigorous short wave impulse
    splitting off the stronger mid-latitude westerlies will continue
    digging across the southern Great Basin into the Southwest during
    this period. This appears likely to be accompanied by notable lower/mid-tropospheric cyclogenesis near/southwest of the Wasatch
    into the Colorado Plateau to the southwest of the Four Corners by
    late Friday night, as low-amplitude ridging within the stronger
    westerlies begins to shift inland of the British Columbia and
    Pacific Northwest coast.

    To the east, mid-level ridging, initially building across the upper
    Ohio Valley/lower Great Lakes region, likely will be maintained,
    with downstream confluent mid-level troughing and an embedded low
    only slowly continuing to progress offshore of the Mid Atlantic
    coast. Beneath this regime, models indicate that cold surface
    ridging centered near the Appalachians will maintain a stabilizing
    influence as far south and west as the northwestern Gulf Coast
    region.

    Around the western periphery of this surface ridging, modest
    moisture return of Gulf origins will gradually return northward from northeastern Mexico into surface troughing to the lee of the
    southern Rockies.

    ...Southern Rockies and adjacent Great Plains...
    It still appears that moisture return to the vicinity of weakening
    surface troughing, from the Front Range northeastward into the
    central Great Plains, may not support more than very weak
    boundary-layer destabilization with limited convective potential
    late Friday afternoon and evening. Farther south, from the western Texas/Oklahoma Panhandle area southward through the Texas/New Mexico
    border vicinity, warm layers aloft and weak boundary-destabilization
    may also tend to minimize the risk for severe storms.

    In response to modest surface pressure falls to the immediate lee of
    the Sangre de Cristo and Sacramento Mountains by early Friday
    evening, increasing low-level moisture return into the eastern
    slopes of the higher terrain is forecast to contribute to increasing boundary-layer destabilization. Coupled with steepening mid-level
    lapse rates associated with strengthening mid/upper forcing for
    ascent and cooling aloft, the environment (including CAPE increasing
    up to 500 J/kg) may become increasingly conducive to intensifying
    thunderstorm development by late Friday evening. Shear profiles
    probably will become supportive of supercell structures with
    potential to produce marginally severe hail and locally strong
    surface gusts. The 17/00Z NAM forecast soundings and hodographs
    around Las Vegas NM, in particular, appear potentially supportive of
    a tornado around 06Z Friday night.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PORTIONS
    OF THE SOUTHERN HIGH PLAINS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Strong thunderstorms are possible Friday night across parts of
    eastern New Mexico near the Sangre de Cristo and Sacramento
    Mountains. Some may pose a risk for small to marginally severe hail,
    locally damaging wind gusts, and perhaps a tornado.

    ...Southwest into the Southern High Plains...

    An upper low will develop within the base of a western trough on
    Friday. This system will progress across the Southwest toward the
    Four Corners/southern Rockies vicinity by Saturday morning. As this
    occurs, moderate mid/upper south/southwesterly flow (40-60 kt at 500
    mb) will overspread the southern Rockies and adjacent High Plains.
    At the surface, modest boundary layer moisture will spread across
    southern AZ on southerly low-level flow ahead of an
    eastward-advancing cold front. Steepening midlevel lapse rates
    within the developing mid/upper low may provide weak elevated
    instability and isolated thunderstorms are possible.

    Further east, southeasterly low-level flow will transport modest
    Gulf moisture northwest across western Texas into eastern New Mexico
    along a surface trough/dryline. As the upper low/trough approaches
    during the afternoon into the evening, steepening midlevel lapse
    rates and surface dewpoints in the mid 50s F will support up to 1000
    J/kg MLCAPE. Vertically veering wind profiles with around 40 kt
    effective shear magnitudes suggest isolated supercells will be
    possible with initial convection during the evening. More linear
    development may occur with time (toward 06z) as stronger large-scale
    ascent overspreads the region. Strong gusts, marginal hail and a
    tornado or two will be possible with this activity.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE
    SOUTHERN HIGH PLAINS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Strong to severe thunderstorms are possible across the southern High
    Plains Saturday into Saturday night. Large hail will be the primary
    threat, though isolated severe winds and a tornado may also occur
    with the strongest storms.

    ...Synopsis...
    The upper-level trough within the lower Colorado River Valley will
    become a closed low in the Southwest and become nearly stationary
    just south of the Four Corners on Saturday. Mid-level winds
    associated with this feature are expected to weaken some as compared
    to Friday, though some intensification may occur as the trough
    becomes more progressive by early Sunday morning. At the surface,
    modest return flow of generally poor-quality low-level moisture will
    continue into the southern High Plains as a surface trough is
    maintained from eastern Colorado into eastern New Mexico. Nebulous
    ascent from the upper-level low as well as low-level warm advection
    should promote some showers/thunderstorms early in the period,
    especially in New Mexico.

    ...Central/eastern New Mexico into western Texas...
    Southeasterly return flow around the surface high in the Ohio Valley
    will maintain mid to upper 50s F dewpoints in the southern High
    Plains. Forcing from the upper low and a Pacific cold front will
    promote late-afternoon thunderstorm development from central to
    eastern New Mexico. Ongoing precipitation early in the period gives
    some uncertainty as to how much surface-based destabilization will
    occur. MLCAPE of around 1000 J/kg appears possible where greater
    heating occurs with closer to 500 J/kg elsewhere. However, there
    appears a slightly more favorable zone for heating from the Davis
    Mountains into east-central New Mexico. Deep-layer shear will be
    favorable for supercells, and mid-level lapse rates will remain
    steep enough to support some threat for large hail even if some
    storms remain slightly elevated. Isolated strong to severe gusts
    could occur with the most organized supercells. Low-level shear will
    increase after 00Z, but a simultaneous increase in low-level
    stability is also expected. Even so, a narrow window exists for a
    tornado or two should a mature supercell persist into the early
    evening. Given a slightly slower eastward progression of the upper
    low in recent guidance, a small westward shift in severe
    probabilities was made.

    Some guidance shows convection developing within the Davis
    Mountains. Given the weak synoptic lift and potential for low-level
    clouds and stable conditions to the east, it is not clear if storms
    will develop or for how long they can persist eastward into
    marginally greater moisture. A conditional threat for severe hail
    would exist if a storm or two can develop and mature in the
    Trans-Pecos region.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Strong to severe thunderstorms are possible across the southern High
    Plains Saturday into Saturday night. Large hail will be the primary
    threat, though isolated severe winds and a tornado may also occur
    with the strongest storms.

    ...Southern Plains...

    A large-scale pattern favoring isolated severe thunderstorms will
    persist across the southern High Plains on Saturday. A closed
    mid/upper cyclone will remain over the Four Corners vicinity, with
    moderate mid/upper southwesterly flow on the eastern periphery of
    this system overspreading the southern Rockies and adjacent High
    Plains. In the low levels, southeasterly return flow will support
    mid/upper 50s F dewpoints across western TX into eastern NM and the
    OK/TX Panhandles.

    Early day showers and cloudiness may limit heating, and hence,
    surface-based instability remains in question. Forecast guidance
    suggests a corridor or relative stronger heating may occur from the
    Davis Mountains into east-central NM. Meanwhile, cool temperatures
    aloft resulting in steep midlevel lapse rates will support modest
    instability. Vertically veering wind profiles, with speeds
    increasing with height, will favor supercells. Large hail will be
    the main risk with these storms. Midlevel flow will increase toward
    evening, resulting in enlarged low-level hodographs and
    strengthening SRH. If any cells are surface-based and can remain so
    into the early evening, a tornado or two also will be possible, in
    addition to strong thunderstorm wind gusts.

    Severe potential should wane with southward extent given weakening
    forcing for ascent and more modest shear. However, greater
    moisture/instability will exist from the Davis Mountains toward the
    Rio Grande/Trans-Pecos vicinity. If a storm can develop and become
    maintained east of the higher terrain, a conditional risk of large
    hail will exist. Confidence in storm longevity/coverage is too low
    to extent the Marginal risk (level 1 of 5) southward at this time.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS EASTERN
    NEW MEXICO...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated strong to severe storms are possible across eastern New
    Mexico on Sunday.

    ...Synopsis...
    An upper-level low in the Four Corners region will initially be
    moving slowly eastward through the Southwest on Sunday. This feature
    will trend more progressive towards Sunday evening into Monday
    morning as it ejects into the parts of the central/southern High
    Plains. On the western periphery of the Ohio/Tennessee Valley
    anticyclone, modest surface moisture will be maintained as far north
    as the Texas/Oklahoma Panhandles.

    ...Eastern New Mexico...
    Early precipitation/cloud cover is probable in the region,
    particularly across northeastern New Mexico. However, some mid-level
    dry air is expected to help promote some surface heating in parts of east-central into southeastern New Mexico during the afternoon.
    Mid-level ascent will not be overly strong, especially with southern
    extent, but forcing will increase during the evening/overnight.
    Terrain will likely be the main focus for initiation until this
    occurs. Mid/upper 50s F dewpoints are most probable, though low 60s
    F are not out of the question in southeastern New Mexico. MLCAPE of
    around 1000 J/kg is possible where the strongest heating occurs.
    Long hodographs and 35-40 kts of effective shear will favor
    potential for supercells capable of large hail and isolated severe
    gusts. Low-level shear will not be overly strong, but should be
    sufficient for a risk of a tornado with the most organized
    supercells--a risk that will be maximized between 00-01Z.

    As forcing for ascent increases in northeast New Mexico, some linear
    structures may develop during mid/late evening. These storms could
    produce occasional, marginally severe hail and perhaps strong winds.
    The overall threat should be more marginal given limited buoyancy.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN EAST-CENTRAL TO

    ...SUMMARY...
    A couple tornadoes, scattered large hail, and isolated severe gusts
    are possible from mid-afternoon to mid-evening Sunday across eastern
    New Mexico.

    ...Southern High Plains...
    Overall setup appears somewhat similar to D1 with potential for a
    few to several supercells, shifted northward as the AZ upper low
    gradually accelerates northeastward towards the CO Rockies.

    Convection is expected to be ongoing across northeast NM with
    extensive morning cloudiness to its south within a persistent
    low-level warm conveyor. This will slow boundary-layer heating
    across eastern NM, with more moderate insolation likely confined to
    the TX Trans-Pecos. But with mid to upper 50s surface dew points,
    even limited heating should result in a plume of MLCAPE from
    750-1500 J/kg by afternoon. Scattered thunderstorms should develop
    across the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, with more isolated activity
    where forcing for ascent weakens with south-southeast extent into
    southeast NM. 40-45 kt effective bulk shear and elongation to the
    hodograph will favor potential for several cells with mid-level
    rotation. Low-level shear will not be overly strong, but will
    increase after 00Z and should be sufficient for a risk of a couple
    tornadic supercells. Large hail should be the primary overall
    hazard, before storms congeal into a slow-moving cluster with an
    embedded strong to localized severe wind threat. Storm intensity
    should wane by late evening.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN PARTS OF THE CENTRAL/SOUTHERN HIGH PLAINS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe thunderstorms are possible from western/central
    Kansas to the eastern Texas Panhandle, mainly during the afternoon
    to early evening Monday.

    ...Synopsis...
    A cutoff low early Sunday morning across the Southwest will start to
    be picked up by the westerlies and eventually accelerate
    east-northeast across the central Plains on Monday. As this occurs,
    a surface trough will sharpen across the central High Plains. This
    will draw some low-level moisture northward with mid-50s dewpoints
    expected into western Kansas by Monday afternoon. Isolated strong to
    severe thunderstorms are possible along this surface trough with the
    potential for large hail and severe wind gusts.

    ...Kansas into the eastern TX/OK Panhandles and western Oklahoma...
    Mid-50s dewpoints along and ahead of a surface trough in the central
    Plains, combined with cooling temperatures aloft, will result in
    weak (750-1000 J/kg MLCAPE) instability. Forecast soundings show
    inhibition eroding between 20Z and 21Z. Around this time, isolated thunderstorms are possible. Mid level flow is forecast to strengthen
    somewhat during the day and overspread the narrow warm sector. This
    will result in a wind profile favorable for supercells. Isolated
    large hail and severe wind gusts will be the primary threat from any
    supercells which develop. Significant directional shear in the
    lowest 500-1000m will support the potential for a tornado or two,
    but the weak instability should keep the threat somewhat limited.
    Any severe threat should wane by late evening as the boundary layer
    cools and inhibition increases.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE CENTRAL
    PLAINS INTO THE TEXAS PANHANDLE AND WESTERN OKLAHOMA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe thunderstorms are possible from western/central
    Kansas to the eastern Texas Panhandle, mainly during the afternoon
    to early evening Monday.

    ...Synopsis...
    Upper low centered over the Four Corners region early Sunday is
    expected to become more progressive by early Monday, tracking
    northeastward across the central Plains throughout the day. As it
    does, associated enhanced mid-level flow throughout the base of this
    system and cold mid-level temperatures will spread across the
    central Plains (and adjacent portions of the TX Panhandle and OK).
    At the surface, a weak low attendant to the upper system will move
    across KS, just to the southeast of the upper low. Some modest
    low-level moisture will precede this system, with isolated strong to
    severe thunderstorms possible.

    ...Central Plains into eastern TX Panhandle and western OK...
    Showers and thunderstorms will likely be ongoing from the TX
    Panhandle into far eastern CO/western KS early Monday morning,
    fostered by warm advection preceding the upper low mentioned in the
    synopsis. Showers and elevated thunderstorms are expected to
    continue within the warm conveyor throughout the day amid the modest
    buoyancy fostered predominantly by increased mid-level moisture and
    cooling mid-level temperatures. Vertical shear will be strong enough
    to support updraft organization/rotation, with a resultant risk for
    large hail. Even so, a predominantly linear and elevated storm mode
    suggest that the overall severe potential will be limited.

    A relatively greater severe risk is anticipated in the wake of this
    initial activity, as the surface low and attendant troughing
    progress through central KS and adjacent portions of south-central
    NE and northwest OK. Diurnal destabilization appears probable when
    the cloud cover associated with the leading showers and
    thunderstorms moves east and temperatures warm into the low to mid
    70s. These temperatures amid low 60s dewpoints and cold mid-level
    temperatures (i.e. -14 to -16 deg C at 500 mb) will help support
    1000 to 1500 J/kg of MLCAPE. Mid-level flow will remain strong, with
    some additional strengthening of the shear provided by backing of
    the low-level flow near the surface low. This backed low-level flow
    will also lengthen the low-level hodograph.

    Overall environment supports organized discrete supercells capable
    of all severe hazards, including tornadoes. Current guidance suggest
    the most favorable time frame for severe is between 21Z and 03Z from
    central KS into south-central NE. However, uncertainty remains
    regarding both how much diurnal destabilization occurs and the
    overall storm coverage. As a result, will maintain low severe
    probabilities for this outlook, but a higher probabilities may be
    needed in later outlooks if confidence in sufficient storm coverage
    increases.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    No severe thunderstorms are forecast on Tuesday.

    ...Synopsis...
    A mid-level trough will be absorbed into the broader westerlies on
    Tuesday as it traverses from the Midwest to the Upper Great Lakes.
    Some remnant convection is expected to be ongoing Tuesday morning in
    the vicinity of this trough across Missouri, but this convection
    should weaken by mid-day as it moves into drier air.

    Ridging will start to build in the western CONUS with an extended
    moderately strong jet-stream from the Oregon/California border to
    the Upper Midwest. At the surface, a strong cold front will traverse
    the northern Plains during the day. Some showers and thunderstorms
    are expected along this frontal boundary, as temperatures cool aloft
    and forcing increases ahead of an amplifying mid-level trough
    approaching the area from the southern Canadian Prairie Provinces.
    Instability will be limited, but may be sufficient for some
    lightning flashes.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    No severe thunderstorms are forecast on Tuesday.

    ...Synopsis...
    A shortwave trough is forecast to be over western IA early Tuesday
    morning before continuing northeastward throughout the day across
    the Mid/Upper MS Valley and Upper Great Lakes and becoming absorbed
    in the stronger westerlies. Isolated to widely scattered elevated
    thunderstorms are possible Tuesday morning ahead of this wave across
    the Mid MS Valley. Buoyancy will be modest, which should temper
    updraft strength in most of these storms. However, relatively cool
    mid-level temperatures and enhanced mid-level flow could result in
    enough buoyancy and shear for a few instances of small hail.

    Another shortwave trough is expected to progress through the
    Canadian Prairies on Tuesday. This shortwave is expected to amplify considerably as it moves into far northwestern Ontario. By 12Z
    Wednesday, this shortwave is expected to extend from the Hudson Bay
    through western Ontario and the Upper Midwest. A surface low will
    precede this system, with an attendant cold front pushing
    southeastward across the Upper Midwest and Upper Great Lakes.
    Low-level moisture in the vicinity of this front will be minimal,
    but increasing mid-level moisture coupled with cold mid-level
    temperatures could still promote enough buoyancy for a few deeper
    updrafts capable of producing lightning from northern MN into far
    northern WI and western upper MI.

    Lastly, a thunderstorm or two appears possible across southern
    portions of far west TX/TX Big Bend vicinity Tuesday afternoon.
    Here, some airmass destabilization appears possible amid strong
    heating, and there could be just enough low-level convergence for
    convective initiation. Overall coverage in this area is currently
    expected to be less than 10%.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    No severe thunderstorms are expected on Wednesday.

    ...Synopsis...
    A strong shortwave trough is forecast to extend from southern Hudson
    Bay through the Upper Great Lakes and Upper Midwest early Wednesday
    morning. This shortwave is expected to make steady eastward progress
    throughout the day, traversing across Ontario and Quebec as well as
    the Great Lakes and Northeast states. A cold front will accompany
    this system, moving just ahead of the upper trough. Current
    expectation is that this front will progress across the Northeast
    from 21Z through 03Z. Low-level moisture preceding this front across
    the Northeast will be modest (i.e. upper 40s/low 50s dewpoints),
    limiting buoyancy and likely keeping most of the convection along
    and ahead of the front shallow. A few deeper cores could result in
    isolated lightning flashes. Additionally, robust low to mid-level
    westerly flow could result in a few stronger, convectively augmented
    gusts within the deeper cores in the strongly forced convective
    line.

    Currently, minimal buoyancy and shallow nature to the convection
    along and ahead of the front is expected to limit the coverage of
    any damaging gusts. However, if greater instability and more robust
    convection can develop, some damaging wind gusts could be possible
    with this strongly forced convection. Trends within the guidance
    will be monitored closely to determine if low severe probabilities
    will be needed in later outlooks.

    Isolated thunderstorms are possible from the Red River into eastern
    Oklahoma and western Arkansas where the tail end of the cold front
    will move into an airmass with weak to moderate instability during
    the afternoon/evening. However, a relatively thin instability
    profile and weak shear should mitigate any severe weather threat.

    ...SUMMARY...
    No severe thunderstorms are expected on Wednesday.

    ...Synopsis and Discussion...
    An upper trough will move across the Great Lakes and into the
    Northeast during the day, providing strong southwest winds and
    cooling aloft. Upper ridging will then develop across the Plains as
    a secondary shortwave trough moves from the Pacific Northwest into
    the Rockies late.

    At the surface, high pressure will be centered over the Plains, and
    into the Southeast, with a cold front moving across the lower Great
    Lakes and trailing southwestward toward the TN Valley by late
    afternoon. The tail end of this front will stall across the lower MS
    Valley and toward the Red River.

    A few weak thunderstorms are most probable late Wednesday afternoon
    from parts of New York into western New England, as the cold front
    interacts with steepening lapse rates and low levels of moisture.
    Forecast soundings indicate perhaps only 100 J/kg MUCAPE, and as
    such, severe weather is unlikely.

    Elsewhere, a low chance of isolated lightning flashes may develop
    over northeast TX into southeast OK, where heating will be strong
    near the stalled front. Warm midlevel temperatures and weak forcing
    will limit the overall coverage.

    ...SUMMARY...
    A few storms may produce hail on Thursday from far northeast Kansas
    and southeast Nebraska across northern Missouri and into much of
    Iowa.

    ...Synopsis...
    On Thursday, a progressive upper trough will move from the central
    and northern Rockies into the Plains, as upper ridging develops from
    the OH Valley into the Northeast. Surface high pressure will be in
    place over much of the East in the wake of the previous days cold
    front, providing generally stable conditions.

    Lee troughing and an associated cold front associated with the
    mid-level trough will traverse the central Plains Thursday afternoon
    and move into portions of the Midwest by the evening. Some low-level
    moisture will advect northward ahead of the cold front, but will mix
    out as it does with only minimal surface-based instability expected.
    A few storms may develop during the afternoon along this front, but
    will likely struggle to be severe due to the limited instability.
    Once the 1 to 2 km layer starts to moisten after 00Z in response to
    a strengthening low-level jet and mid-level temperatures start to
    cool, more substantial elevated instability is expected. Sufficient
    forcing due to isentropic ascent and dCVA will support some elevated
    convection during the evening and into the early overnight hours.
    Moderate instability and 30 to 35 knots of effective shear may
    support a few supercells capable of large hail.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Little thunderstorm activity is forecast across the contiguous
    states on Saturday. An isolated weak thunderstorm cannot be ruled
    out near the ArkLaTex.

    ...Synopsis...
    An upper ridge will sharpen over the Rockies on Saturday as a large
    upper trough over the Great Lakes shifts east, and another upper
    trough spreads into the Pacific Northwest and Great Basin. High
    pressure will be prominent from the Plains into the Midwest, and
    over much of the intermountain west during the day.

    In the wake of the northeastern trough, a weak front is forecast to
    extend roughly from the TN Valley into TX, with an area of 60s F
    dewpoints extending northward toward the ArkLaTex. While lift will
    be weak, heating within the moist plume will result in an uncapped
    air mass, and a few daytime thunderstorms cannot be ruled out.
    Severe weather is unlikely as shear will be weak, and midlevel lapse
    rates poor.

    Elsewhere, increasing large-scale ascent across the Pacific
    Northwest with substantial cooling aloft will occur overnight, with
    low-topped convection primarily offshore.

    Isolated thunderstorms will be possible on Sunday along parts of the

    expected.

    ...DISCUSSION...
    An upper-level trough will move across the eastern U.S. on Sunday,
    as an upper-level ridge moves into the Great Plains. A large surface
    high will keep the airmass relatively dry across much of the eastern
    half of the nation. In the west, a shortwave trough will approach
    the Pacific Northwest coast. Ahead of this feature, strong
    large-scale ascent and steep lapse rates should be sufficient for
    isolated thunderstorm development along the coast of Oregon and
    Washington from Sunday afternoon into the evening and overnight. No
    severe threat is expected on Sunday or Sunday night across the
    continental United States.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated thunderstorms will be possible on Sunday along the coastal
    Pacific Northwest. Severe weather appears unlikely.

    ...Synopsis...
    An upper-level trough will move into the Pacific Northwest with
    broader cyclonic flow extending into the intermountain region.
    Ridging aloft will be the primary feature east of the Divide as
    another upper-level trough in parts of the Northeast continues to
    move offshore during the period. A Pacific surface front will
    continue to move eastward along with the western upper-level system.

    ...Coastal Washington/Oregon...
    Within the post-frontal environment, cold temperatures aloft will
    promote sufficient buoyancy for isolated thunderstorms. Depth of
    convection will likely remain marginally supportive of charge
    separation, limiting overall coverage. There may be a brief period
    where modest low-level wind enhancement could overlap with peak
    buoyancy (200-300 J/kg MUCAPE) leading to weak low-level rotation in
    the strongest storms. Even so, a few strong, sub-severe wind gusts
    along the coast are all that is expected at this time.

    as surface temperatures warm during the day. Additional
    thunderstorms may form across the Great Lakes Monday night as warm
    advection, associated with a broad low-level jet, increases across
    the region. No severe threat is expected to develop across the

    A broad mid-level trough will amplify across the western and central
    CONUS, supporting broad surface lee troughing and accompanying
    low-level moisture return across the Plains and MS Valleys tomorrow
    (Monday). Cooler temperatures aloft, combined with strong synoptic
    forcing for ascent, will promote isolated to potentially scattered
    thunderstorm development near the shoreline of the Pacific
    Northwest, and across the Four Corners region. Meanwhile, low-level
    warm-air advection will transpire across the Great Lakes Monday
    evening into the overnight as the terminus of a pronounced low-level
    jet overspreads the region. Here, low-level convergence will foster
    the potential for at least isolated thunderstorm development.
    Finally, isolated thunderstorms may develop just off the coast of
    the Carolinas as richer low-level moisture meanders along the
    Atlantic Coastline. However, thunderstorms should remain far enough
    offshore to preclude thunderstorm highlights this outlook.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
    THE MID MISSOURI AND UPPER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY SOUTH-SOUTHWESTWARD
    INTO THE CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN PLAINS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe thunderstorms, with hail and strong wind gusts, are
    expected Tuesday night from the mid Missouri and upper Mississippi
    Valley south-southwestern into northern sections of the southern
    Plains.

    ...Southern and Central Plains/Mid Missouri and Upper Mississippi
    Valleys...
    An upper-level trough will move across the Desert Southwest on
    Tuesday, as an associated mid-level jet translates through the
    eastern part of the system into the central Plains. At the surface,
    a cold front will advance southeastward across the northern Plains
    as a low deepens in southwestern Nebraska. As low-level flow and
    convergence increase along the front during the evening, convective
    initiation appears likely. Scattered thunderstorms are expected to
    develop from the central Plains into the upper Mississippi Valley
    within the mid to late evening, where instability should be
    sufficient for isolated severe storms. Thunderstorm coverage is
    expected to gradually increase in the overnight period, with
    additional storms developing over northern parts of the southern
    Plains.

    The latest ECMWF model forecast suggests that the most favorable
    area for severe thunderstorm development will be in the mid Missouri
    Valley during the late evening on Tuesday. NAM forecast soundings
    near and to the north of Omaha at 06Z/Wednesday show a capping
    inversion above 850 mb, with MUCAPE around 1000 J/kg, effective
    shear of 45 to 50 knots, and 700-500 mb lapse rates near 7 C/km.
    This environment would support supercells with isolated large hail.
    Storms that develop to the east of the boundary will likely be
    elevated with hail as the primary threat. Storms that form near the
    front will have more of chance to be surface-based. Any intense cell
    that can become surface or nearly surface-based could produce
    isolated severe wind gusts. As storm coverage increases overnight, a
    marginal severe threat should be maintained due to the strengthening
    low-level flow, with the severe threat areal coverage expanding south-southwestward with time. The late convective initiation and
    lack of instability are the main limiting factors preventing an
    outlook upgrade at this time.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE UPPER
    MISSISSIPPI AND MIDDLE MISSOURI VALLEYS TO KANSAS/NORTHWESTERN
    OKLAHOMA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Thunderstorm development may begin late in the period from the Upper Mississippi Valley area south-southwestward across the Plains.
    Local/limited risk for hail/wind warrants continuation of Level
    1/MRGL risk for Tuesday night.

    ...Synopsis...
    A highly amplified flow field aloft will reside across the U.S.
    Tuesday, as a deep trough slowly crosses the Intermountain West
    through the period. By Wednesday morning, the trough should extend
    from the northern High Plains to the Four Corners area. Meanwhile,
    ridging will amplify in the eastern U.S., in response to the advance
    of the western trough.

    At the surface, a cold front will sweep across the Four Corners
    states through the first half of the period, ahead of the
    progressing upper system. A frontal wave should evolve over the
    central High Plains, and is expected to then shift
    north-northeastward across Nebraska, reaching the southern Minnesota
    vicinity by 12Z Tuesday morning. This will allow continued eastward
    advance of the trailing front, which should extend from the Mid
    Missouri Valley (western Iowa) vicinity south-southwestward to
    southern New Mexico/far West Texas by the end of the period.

    ...Upper Mississippi Valley south-southwestward to the northwestern
    Oklahoma vicinity...
    Ahead of the sharpening cold front becoming established across the
    Plains Tuesday/Tuesday night, a warm/modestly moist pre-frontal
    boundary layer is expected to evolve, beneath a fairly pronounced
    warm/capping layer aloft. Much of the large-scale ascent associated
    with the advancing upper system should remain to the cool side of
    the front, and thus expect the capping layer to be very slow to
    weaken/erode.

    Low-level warm advection ahead of the track of the surface low may
    support some primarily elevated convective development overnight,
    where modest elevated CAPE may be sufficient to permit a few
    stronger updrafts. Limited potential for hail nearing severe levels
    could accompany one or two of the strongest storms. A strong gust
    cannot be ruled out, should a less-elevated storm nearer the surface
    boundary evolve.

    Farther southwestward into the Plains, any potential storm
    development should be limited to the last 3 or 4 hours of the
    period, at the earliest -- due to the persistent capping. With that
    said, given gradually steepening lapse rates/increasing CAPE, and
    the presence of strong southwesterly flow aloft atop the frontal
    zone, low/conditional risk for a couple of storms capable of
    producing marginal hail/wind cannot be ruled out. A such, will
    retain an elongated Level 1/MRGL risk area across central portions
    of the country to reflect these potential convective scenarios that
    may evolve prior to the end of the period.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
    THE SOUTHERN AND CENTRAL PLAINS EASTWARD INTO THE LOWER MISSOURI
    VALLEY AND WESTERN OZARKS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Thunderstorms, associated with large hail and severe wind gusts, are
    expected on Wednesday across the southern and central Plains
    extending eastward into the lower to mid Mississippi Valley and
    Ozarks.

    ...Southern and Central Plains/Lower to Mid Missouri Valley/Mid to
    Upper Mississippi Valley/Ozarks...
    An upper-level trough will move across the Desert Southwest on
    Wednesday, as a fetch of southwesterly mid-level flow remains over
    the Great Plains and mid to upper Mississippi Valley. The trough is
    forecast to reach the southern High Plains by late Wednesday
    afternoon as an associated mid-level jet translates northeastward
    into the central Plains. At the surface, a cold front will advance southeastward across the central Plains and lower to mid Missouri
    Valley on Wednesday. Ahead of the front, surface dewpoints will be
    in the 60s F, with weak instability developing by afternoon over
    much of the pre-frontal airmass. Convective initiation is expected
    to occur early in the period across the central Plains extending
    northeastward into the mid to upper Mississippi Valley. An isolated
    severe threat will be likely as cells increase in coverage during
    the late morning and early afternoon. MCS development is expected to
    take place by afternoon, with a relatively large convective cluster
    or line gradually moving eastward across eastern and southern Kansas
    extending southward into Oklahoma. Strong low-level flow,
    large-scale ascent associated with the upper-level trough, rich
    low-level moisture and moderate deep-layer shear will be favorable
    for a severe threat Wednesday afternoon and evening.

    The strongest instability is forecast to develop across southern
    Kansas and northwest Oklahoma by Wednesday afternoon. In this area,
    NAM forecast soundings increase MLCAPE to around 1500 J/kg by 21Z,
    with 0-3 km lapse rates peaking in the 7 to 7.5 C/km range. 0-6 km
    shear is forecast to be between 50 and 60 knots, with 0-3 km
    storm-relative helicity peaking in the 200 to 300 m2/s2 range. This
    environment appears likely to support supercells with large hail and
    severe wind gusts. An isolated tornado threat will also be possible
    with rotating storms that remain discrete. As the MCS increases in
    size during the afternoon, a mixed mode is expected with supercells
    and organized multicells. Some models, like the ECMWF, suggest the
    convection will line out in the central Plains. This would favor a
    wind-damage threat along the leading edge of the line. The most
    favorable threat for severe storms would be with rotating storms
    embedded in the line, and with discrete cells ahead of the line.
    Further south into Oklahoma, cells are forecast to be primarily
    discrete suggesting that a severe threat with large hail and severe
    wind gusts will be likely. A tornado threat could also develop
    southward into Oklahoma during the late afternoon and early evening.
    The severe threat should eventually impact parts of north Texas. A
    severe threat is expected to persist into the late evening, and
    perhaps into the early overnight period, as the MCS moves through
    the lower Missouri Valley and Ozarks.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PORTIONS
    OF NORTHWESTERN MISSOURI...EASTERN KANSAS...AND NORTHEASTERN
    OKLAHOMA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Strong/severe thunderstorms, capable of producing large hail,
    damaging wind gusts, and a few tornadoes, are expected on Wednesday
    across central portions of the country -- particularly from the
    middle Missouri Valley area southward to North Texas.

    ...Synopsis...
    An upper trough initially aligned across the interior West will
    progress east-northeastward out of the Rockies and into the Plains
    during the afternoon and evening, and then will continue onward
    toward/into the Mid- and Upper-Mississippi Valley area overnight.

    At the surface, a cold front will initially extend
    northeast-to-southwest across the central U.S. -- from the Lake
    Superior vicinity southwestward to southeastern New Mexico and Far
    West Texas. This front will make only gradual eastward progress
    initially, as a frontal wave develops in the southeastern Kansas
    vicinity and then shifts quickly northeastward along the baroclinic
    zone through the day -- to a position near Topeka around sunset.
    From there, as the low deepens and progresses toward Wisconsin, the
    trailing cold front will begin to surge more quickly
    eastward/southeastward, and should extend across central Illinois,
    southeastern Missouri, Arkansas, to central Texas by Thursday
    morning.

    ...Mid-Mississippi/Mid-Missouri Valleys across northeastern Texas...

    As the advancing upper system shifts out of the Rockies and across
    the High Plains through the day, large-scale ascent -- focused near
    the cold front -- will gradually increase. Ahead of the front, a
    moist (60s dewpoints) airmass will be in place along/ahead of the
    front across the central/southern Plains, and should spread
    northward across Iowa and into Wisconsin through the day. This,
    combined with daytime heating and modestly steep lapse rates aloft,
    will allow gradual/steady destabilization to occur through the
    morning and afternoon hours.

    Initial storm development is forecast by mid to late morning, in the
    eastern Nebraska/northeastern Kansas/western Iowa vicinity, and then
    expanding northeastward toward the upper Mississippi Valley, and
    southward across eastern Kansas, through the afternoon.

    In addition to the amply unstable environment that will be evolving (mixed-layer CAPE in the 1000 to 1500 J/kg range), increasingly
    favorable shear will also evolve with time. This will occur as
    mid-level southwesterly flow associated with the advancing upper
    system spreads eastward across the central Plains, atop low-level
    southerly flow near/ahead of the forecast track of the frontal low.
    The resulting wind field -- veering favorably and increasing in
    speed with height through the lowest half of the troposphere -- will
    support supercells. It appears that convection should remain at
    least somewhat cellular through the daylight hours from the
    Topeka/Kansas City vicinity southward, which would correspond with
    risk for a few tornadoes, along with large hail and damaging wind
    potential.

    Farther to the northeast, across Iowa and into Wisconsin, risk
    should remain lower, given lesser instability. Overall, storms
    should gradually grow upscale linearly, and will shift eastward with
    time across Iowa and into Missouri -- and eventually Illinois
    overnight, accompanied by at least limited severe risk into the
    overnight hours.

    Farther south into Oklahoma and Texas, storm development should
    occur later, likely not until after dark. Still, with the
    thermodynamic and kinematic environment favoring rotating storms,
    the all-hazards severe risk should expand southward across Oklahoma
    and into northern and possibly central Texas. With time, storms
    should grow upscale linearly across this region as well, after the initial/primarily cellular mode. Like areas farther north, at least
    some severe risk should continue overnight, spreading eastward into
    Arkansas and East Texas with time.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE LOWER
    TO MID MISSISSIPPI VALLEY...AND LOWER OHIO VALLEY...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Thunderstorms, associated with isolated severe wind gusts, will be
    possible Thursday afternoon along a narrow corridor from the Sabine
    River Valley north-northeastward into far southern Lower Michigan.

    ...Sabine River Valley/Lower to Mid Mississippi Valley/Lower Ohio Valley/Southern Great Lakes...
    A negatively-tilted upper-level trough, and an associated 70 to 80
    knot mid-level speed max, will move northeastward into the Great
    Lakes on Thursday. At the surface, a cold front will advance
    eastward into the Ark-La-Tex and mid Mississippi Valley. Ahead of
    the front, surface dewpoints in the 60s F will contribute to weak destabilization in most areas by midday. Convection is expected to
    initiate along and ahead the front during the late morning as
    surface temperatures warm. Thunderstorms should gradually increase
    in coverage in the afternoon, moving eastward across the lower to
    mid Mississippi Valley, and lower Ohio Valley.

    Model solutions appear to present two scenarios. The first solution,
    which is depicted by the NAM, initiates convection near the front
    around midday from east-central Texas north-northeastward into the
    mid Mississippi Valley, with a second north-to-south band of storms
    developing much further east in the lower Mississippi Valley. The
    second solution, which is depicted by the ECMWF, focuses most of the
    convection further east near the center of the low-level moisture
    corridor in the lower to mid Mississippi Valley. Strong outflow from
    the previous night's convection is forecast to surge southeastward
    across much of central and east Texas Thursday morning, which could
    favor the second scenario, with an effective frontal boundary much
    further east.

    The severe threat should be concentrated along and near the axis of
    the strongest low-level flow, which is forecast to be in the lower
    to mid Mississippi Valley, and lower Ohio Valley. Forecast soundings
    near the moist axis in the afternoon have MLCAPE peaking from around
    500 J/kg in the lower Ohio Valley to 1500 J/kg in the lower
    Mississippi Valley. Moderate deep-layer shear is forecast along much
    of the moist axis, where low-level lapse rates could peak near 7
    C/km in areas that heat up the most. This environment will likely
    support an isolated wind-damage threat during the afternoon, with
    the stronger and more organized multicells. A marginal tornado
    threat may also develop, mainly from western Tennessee
    south-southwestward into northern Louisiana, where the combination
    of instability and shear is forecast to be maximized, in conjunction
    with steep low-level lapse rates.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM SOUTHERN
    LOWER MICHIGAN SOUTHWESTWARD TO NORTHEASTERN TEXAS/NORTHERN
    LOUISIANA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Locally strong storms -- a couple of which may produce marginally
    severe gusts -- will be possible Thursday morning and afternoon,
    from the Midwest to northeastern Texas/northern Louisiana.

    ...Synopsis...
    A progressing short-wave trough initially forecast over the Middle
    Missouri Valley area is expected to move quickly northeastward
    toward/across the Great Lakes region through the first half of the
    period, and then into Ontario/Quebec overnight. At the surface, an
    associated cold front will move eastward across the Great Lakes and
    Ohio Valley areas, while moving more slowly southeastward across the
    Lower Mississippi Valley and southern Plains. By the end of the
    period, the boundary should extend from the Northeast to the Texas
    Coast.

    ...Southern Lower Michigan southwest to northeastern Texas/northern Louisiana...
    Showers and thunderstorms will be ongoing near and ahead of an
    advancing cold front -- which is initially forecast to lie from the
    southern Wisconsin vicinity southwestward to central Texas. With
    the associated upper system forecast to be ejecting quickly
    northeastward into/across the Upper Great Lakes region, decreasing
    ascent and weakening flow aloft is expected with time from roughly
    the Ohio Valley southward. Meanwhile, weak instability north of the
    Ohio Valley will be an overall limiting factor, despite more
    favorable kinematics.

    Overall, it appears that Level 1/MRGL risk remains appropriate, to
    cover the potential for a few stronger storms/line segments to
    produce strong/gusty winds that may locally reach severe levels.
    Risk should be greatest during the morning and afternoon hours,
    after which decreasing convective intensity and attendant severe
    potential is expected.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PORTIONS
    OF THE SOUTHERN HIGH PLAINS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered thunderstorms, a few which may become capable of marginal
    hail/wind, will likely evolve across parts of the southern High
    Plains Friday evening into the overnight.

    ...Synopsis...
    Broadly cyclonic flow aloft will persist over the western half of
    the country Friday, amplifying with time as short-wave energy
    initially off the West Coast digs south-southeastward toward
    northern California through the period.

    At the surface, a cold front will shift across the Northwest and
    into the Great Basin and California, in tandem with the digging
    upper feature. Meanwhile, a remnant/west-to-east baroclinic zone
    will persist from the southeastern U.S. westward into the southern
    Plains.

    ...Southern High Plains...
    Ahead of the amplifying western U.S. upper trough, weak mid-level
    height falls will support a zone of low-level warm advection across
    the southern High Plains vicinity. Afternoon heating of a gradually
    moistening low-level airmass will result in modest destabilization,
    with 500 to 1000 J/kg mixed-layer CAPE expected. Little nocturnal
    decrease in instability is expected, as low-level theta-e advection
    supported by persistent surface southeasterlies should offset any
    diurnal cooling effects.

    Given the modest but sufficient CAPE expected by afternoon, ascent
    should support gradual development of isolated to scattered storms
    -- initially in the vicinity of higher terrain. Aided by
    veering/moderately increasing flow with height, shear should support
    multicell organization and potentially some mid-level rotation. As
    such, risk for hail and/or wind reaching severe criteria exists
    locally, with a couple of the strongest storms. This potential
    should continue overnight, with a northward/northwestward expansion
    of convection as the low-level theta-e advection increases in tandem
    with a strengthening south-southeasterly low-level jet.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN THE PERMIAN
    BASIN AND SOUTH PLAINS OF WEST TX...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe storms are possible on Saturday into Saturday night
    across parts of the southern Great Plains. The most likely corridor
    for a couple tornadoes and large hail is across a part of the
    Permian Basin and South Plains of west Texas during the late
    afternoon and early evening.

    ...Southern Great Plains...
    Widespread convection will be ongoing at 12Z Saturday over the
    southern High Plains, centered on southeast NM to the Panhandles,
    within a robust low-level warm theta-e advection regime. A
    semi-organized linear cluster may be present along the southern edge
    of the convective swath, and could be maintained through the diurnal
    heating cycle. Low to mid-level lapse rates downstream will be weak,
    suggesting localized strong gusts early.

    A mesoscale corridor of sustained supercell potential is evident
    over parts of the Permian Basin and South Plains from mid-afternoon
    to early evening. Regenerative convective development is expected in
    the wake of morning activity, along the effective outflow-reinforced
    baroclinic zone arcing to the west-southwest. Best potential for
    boundary-layer heating will be across the TX Trans-Pecos. Downstream
    of a full-latitude trough from the Canadian Rockies to the northern
    Gulf of CA, a strengthening upper jet over northern Mexico should
    overspread the Trans-Pecos late day. This will yield favorable mid
    to upper-level hodograph elongation with southwesterly speed shear
    immediately downstream. A couple longer-lived supercells may develop
    and move along the mesoscale outflow boundary, with a threat for
    golf- to tennis-ball-sized hail, despite moderate mid-level lapse
    rates. With an early evening increase in the low-level jet, a couple
    tornadoes may develop as well.

    Mid-level lapse rates will be weaker with a more moist-adiabatic
    profile extending northeastward into OK. Still, with the evening
    increase in the low-level jet, potential will exist for low-level
    rotation with embedded convection along the baroclinic zone. While
    convective mode will be messy, and uncertainty exists with the
    spatial placement of the corridor in the wake of daytime convection,
    the persistent influx of mid 60s surface dew points suggests a
    low-probability tornado/wind threat may extend into Saturday night.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE PERMIAN
    BASIN VICINITY EAST-NORTHEASTWARD INTO SOUTHWESTERN OKLAHOMA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe storms are expected Saturday and Saturday night
    across parts of the southern Great Plains. The most likely corridor
    for a couple tornadoes and large hail is across parts of the Permian
    Basin and South Plains of Texas during the late afternoon and early
    evening.

    ...Synopsis...
    Digging/intensification -- and gradual/steady progression -- of the
    western U.S. upper trough is expected Saturday. As this system
    shifts from the West Coast states across the Great Basin and into
    the Desert Southwest, substantial downstream mid-level height falls
    will occur across the central and southern Plains.

    At the surface, a remnant baroclinic zone -- extending from Texas
    eastward across the Southeast -- will mark the northern extent of
    the moist Gulf low-level airmass. This boundary -- in response to
    persistent southeasterly low-level flow -- should tend to retreat
    northwestward across Texas/Oklahoma, though likely to become impeded
    by convective outflow. The result will likely become a convectively
    reinforced boundary extending from the Permian Basin vicinity east-northeastward into Oklahoma, which will focus persistent,
    regenerative convection and some attendant severe risk through the
    period.

    ...Transpecos region and southeastern New Mexico northeastward into
    central and northern Oklahoma...
    Showers and thunderstorms are forecast to be ongoing at the start of
    the period from southeastern New Mexico northeastward into southern
    Kansas, with potentially some local/low-end severe risk on the
    southern fringe of this convection. South of the convection, some heating/destabilization is expected -- particularly across the Transpecos/Permian Basin region. Here, an afternoon increase in
    convection -- likely in the form of supercells -- is expected to
    occur. Here, large hail will be possible, along with potential for
    locally damaging winds, and a couple of tornadoes.

    Into the evening, convection should increase in coverage -- likely
    evolving into multiple linear bands, as a low-level jet increases.
    Though instability should remain lesser with northeastward extent
    into Oklahoma, owing to relatively weak lapse rates, multiple rounds
    of banded convection should be accompanied by risk for locally
    strong wind gusts, along with marginal hail and potentially a
    tornado or two. This potential should persist well into the
    overnight hours.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN PARTS OF OK TO
    THE TX BIG COUNTRY...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered severe storms are possible in multiple rounds from midday
    Sunday through Sunday night. The most likely area affected includes
    parts of Oklahoma into north and west-central Texas. Tornadoes,
    damaging winds, and large hail may occur.

    ...Synopsis...
    A full-latitude mid/upper trough will gradually progress east onto
    the Prairie Provinces and across the Desert Southwest/northwest
    Mexico. Multiple upper jet streaks are consistently progged ahead of
    the trough over the Great Plains. Mid-level southwesterlies will
    also strengthen, but the fastest flow will remain on the backside of
    the trough through Sunday afternoon. This jetlet will progress into
    the base of the trough on Sunday night, coincident with a vigorous
    shortwave impulse. Initial surface cyclogenesis will occur over the
    central High Plains and track into MN/IA by 12Z Monday. Additional
    cyclogenesis will occur Sunday night across the Pecos Valley into
    western north TX.

    ...Central to southern Great Plains...
    A complex setup remains evident during the D2 period with multiple
    rounds of severe potential anticipated.

    A decaying MCS should be ongoing across parts of the Ozarks
    southwestward into north TX, with outflow reinforcing a baroclinic
    zone across the Red River region. Guidance is highly consistent in
    suggesting the next round of west TX convection developing by late
    morning. This activity should intensify and increase in coverage
    midday through the afternoon as it tracks along the baroclinic zone
    that amplifies with differential surface heating. CAMs consistently
    indicate quick upscale growth to an organized linear cluster, with
    embedded supercell structures amid strong mid/upper southwesterlies.
    Low-level shear will initially be modest, and does not appear to be
    favorably timed with the relatively early upscale growth. Still,
    this potential MCS will eventually impinge on greater low-level SRH
    as it tracks towards and east of the I-35 corridor, yielding some
    embedded tornado risk. A final round of strong to severe convection
    should develop overnight across west TX as forcing for ascent
    increases again ahead of the aforementioned wave. Across these
    multiple rounds, a mixed/all-hazards threat will be possible.

    A separate area of low-level warm advection-driven convection may
    develop across the northeast TX vicinity during the afternoon. Weak
    mid-level lapse rates and convection along the instability gradient
    will probably temper the overall threat. But adequate low-level SRH
    will exist for a low-probability, all-hazards threat.

    Convective development along the dryline near the central High
    Plains cyclone in western KS is uncertain. The deleterious effects
    of persistent OK/north TX convection should yield a rather confined
    and limited MLCAPE plume in KS. Conditionally, the environment will
    be favorable for discrete supercells with highly elongated mid/upper
    hodographs and steep mid-level lapse rates. A sustained supercell or
    two might become established in the 00-03Z time frame. Otherwise,
    some later evening elevated hail risk may occur downstream into NE
    and north KS.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS PARTS OF OKLAHOMA
    INTO NORTH TEXAS AND THE ROLLING PLAINS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered severe storms are possible in multiple rounds from midday
    Sunday through Sunday night. The most likely area affected includes
    parts of Oklahoma into north and west-central Texas. Tornadoes,
    damaging winds, and large hail may occur.

    ...Synopsis...
    A large upper-level trough will continue to push east and a surface
    cyclone will deepen in the central High Plains. Continued moisture
    advection northward will support the potential for severe storms,
    primarily within Oklahoma and Texas.

    ...Oklahoma into North Texas...
    Models continue to be consistent in an ongoing line of convection
    occurring early Sunday morning from eastern Oklahoma into North
    Texas. This activity complicates the forecast for the
    afternoon/evening. However, a similarly consistent signal for
    additional convection to move into these areas during the afternoon
    from the Texas Rolling Plains. This scenario is plausible given the
    persistence of low-level southerly flow as the upper-level trough
    continues to move eastward and a surface low deepens in the central
    High Plains. Buoyancy, mid-level lapse rates, and
    low-level/deep-layer shear will favor organized storms capable of
    all severe hazards. Guidance exhibits a strong signal for a linear
    convective mode where severe winds and embedded QLCS circulations
    would be the expected primary threats. Hail would be a greater
    concern for any more discrete storms. The degree of tornado threat
    is at least conditionally higher in south-central/southeast Oklahoma
    where low-level hodographs will be larger, particularly late
    afternoon into the evening. The overall uncertain character/location
    of the effective boundary from earlier convection as well as whether
    discrete storms can form along it keep confidence in a greater
    threat low.

    ...Texas Rolling Plains/Permian Basin...
    Low-level southeasterly winds will continue to advect moisture into
    the surface trough/dryline. Forcing from the upper-level trough will
    overspread this region by mid/late morning. Guidance suggests a
    quick transition to a linear mode, but effective shear of 40-50 kts
    across the boundary and long straight hodographs will favor some
    threat for large hail with initial supercells. Severe winds will
    likely be the primary threat as convection moves northeast. Some
    QLCS tornado threat is possible as low-level shear increases to the
    east.

    ...Kansas/Nebraska...
    Within the surface low/dryline, isolated discrete storm development
    appears possible in western Kansas. Uncertainty remains high given
    potential influence from convection to the south. Further, stronger
    forcing does not arrive until the evening. Should storms develop,
    strong effective shear (50-55 kts) and steep mid-level lapse rates
    will favor supercells capable of severe winds and large hail. At
    least a narrow window for a tornado risk will be present during late
    evening.

    ...East Texas into far western Louisiana...
    Within a warm advection regime, a few storms may develop in East
    Texas and adjacent Louisiana. Buoyancy will be maximized in East
    Texas and diminish with eastward extent. Deep-layer southwesterly
    flow will be sufficient for marginal supercell structures. Damaging
    winds and isolated large hail would be possible. Given the presence
    of an effective warm front/moisture boundary, low-level shear will
    also be adequate for the stronger storms to potentially produce a
    brief tornado.

    afternoon to early evening from northeast Texas to southwest
    Missouri. Tornadoes, a couple of which may be strong, and damaging
    winds should be the main hazards.

    ...Southern Great Plains to the Mid-MS Valley...
    A vigorous shortwave impulse and intense mid-level jet will eject
    across west TX on Monday morning and advance northeast into the
    Lower MO Valley by early Tuesday. While the trough orientation will
    be positive tilt and yield a predominantly south-southwesterly
    mid/upper flow regime, some of the fast winds will overlap with the
    northwest portion of the moderate buoyancy plume across the southern
    Great Plains. Weak mid-level lapse rates will afflict the warm-moist
    sector owing to multiple preceding days of convective overturning
    and the meridional flow regime.

    Low-level warm advection should foster one convective swath centered
    from the Ark-La-Tex to the Mid-MS Valley at 12Z Monday. A separate
    linear cluster should also be ongoing in the western north TX to
    southwest OK vicinity, near a surface cyclone attendant to the
    aforementioned shortwave trough. This surface cyclone should deepen
    slightly as it progresses northeastward. Guidance suggests a window
    for at least modest diabatic surface heating between the convective
    swaths, across northeast TX into southeast OK, where mid to upper
    60s dew points should be emanating north from east TX. Increasing
    convective coverage and intensity are expected towards midday into
    the afternoon, within a largely north-northeast to south-southwest
    oriented swath centered on eastern OK to northeast TX. While a
    linear mode should dominate, enlarged low-level hodograph curvature
    and favorable speed shear in the mid/upper-levels will support
    potential for embedded supercell structures. This should be
    sufficient for tornadoes, a couple of which may be strong, along
    with scattered damaging winds.

    Severe potential should diminish Monday night as the mostly linear
    convective band shifts east of the daytime-heating corridor.
    Convection over east to southeast TX will likely slow its eastward
    advance and contain more undercutting outflow, as large-scale ascent
    shifts north. The extent of severe potential northeast of the Ozarks
    will be limited by progressively diminishing surface-based
    instability. But amid a very strong low-level flow, confidence is
    low in where severe potential will become negligible Monday night.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
    EASTERN OKLAHOMA AND NORTHEAST TEXAS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered severe thunderstorms, associated with tornadoes, large
    hail, and wind damage, are likely on Monday and Monday night from
    the Southern Plains north-northeastward into the Ozarks and mid
    Mississippi Valley. A few of the tornadoes could be strong.

    ...Southern Plains/Ozarks/Mid Mississippi Valley...
    Water vapor imagery currently shows an upper-level trough in the
    Desert Southwest, with a mid-level jet translating southeastward
    through California within the western part of the system. The jet
    max will move through the base of the upper-level trough tonight and
    eject northeastward into the southern Plains on Monday. As this
    occurs, a surface low will develop Monday morning across northwest
    Texas, with the low deepening and moving northeastward across
    western Oklahoma during the day. To the south of the low, a dryline
    from southwest Oklahoma into west-central Texas will sharpen and
    move eastward. A moist airmass will be in place to the east of the
    dryline with surface dewpoints in the 60s F. The moist airmass will
    extend from the southern Plains northeastward into the Ozarks and
    Mid Mississippi Valley. The low-level moisture, combined with lift
    associated with the approaching upper-level system, along with
    instability and shear will be favorable for severe storms,
    especially during the afternoon and evening.

    Over the top of the moist airmass, a broad belt of strong low-level
    flow will maintain moisture advection throughout the day ahead of
    the approaching trough. Scattered strong to potentially severe
    storms are expected during the morning from near the dryline in
    west-central Texas, eastward into the Ark-La-Tex near the axis of a
    low-level jet. As the system moves into the southern High Plains
    during the afternoon, large-scale ascent will become more focused,
    and the low-level jet will strengthen over the eastern part of the
    southern Plains into the Ark-La-Tex. In response, several line
    segments will organize and increase in intensity from north Texas
    into central and eastern Oklahoma and far southeast Kansas.

    A consensus of model forecast soundings for Monday/21Z to the east
    of the dryline have MLCAPE in the 1200 to 2000 J/kg range, 0-6 km
    shear of 50 to 60 knots, and 0-3 storm-relative helicity in the 250
    to 350 300 m2/s2 range. This will be favorable for supercells with
    tornadoes, large hail and wind damage. 0-3 km storm-relative
    helicity is forecast to increase into the 350 to 450 m2/s2 range
    during the late afternoon and early evening, becoming favorable for
    strong tornadoes. The potential for strong tornadoes will be
    associated with the more dominant supercells that remain
    semi-discrete. The greatest potential for strong tornadoes is
    expected from eastern Oklahoma and northeast Texas. Large hail will
    also be possible with supercells. The potential for wind damage will
    become likely with supercells, and will be increasingly possible
    with line-segments during the afternoon. The upper-level trough will
    move into the southern Plains during the evening, as the associated
    dryline and low-level jet shift eastward into the Ark-La-Tex and
    Ozarks. Ahead of the dryline, a nearly continuous line of severe
    storms is expected in the evening, which will likely be associated
    with tornadoes and wind damage.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN THE SABINE TO
    LOWER MS VALLEYS AND CENTRAL/SOUTHERN WI...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A brief tornado or two and locally damaging winds may occur on
    Tuesday across a portion of the Sabine to Lower Mississippi Valleys,
    and central to southern Wisconsin.

    ...Gulf Coast States...
    Lingering convection on Tuesday morning should be confined along a
    slowing cold front in the TX Gulf Coast to the Sabine Valley. Some
    of this activity might produce small hail along the TX Gulf Coast
    portion where the surface front will likely shift off the coast by
    mid-morning. Farther northeast, adequate low-level shear should be
    maintained through at least midday, yielding potential for rotating
    convection. But mid-level lapse rates will remain weak, and
    large-scale ascent will be pulling away from the region through the
    day. Some convective redevelopment is possible along the
    front/residual outflows midday into the afternoon. Locally strong
    gusts and a brief tornado will be possible during the first half of
    the period. Low to deep-layer shear magnitudes are expected to
    diminish from south to north during the evening.

    Across the FL Keys, based on latest NHC track/intensity forecast for
    PTC 18 along with 00Z guidance, tornado potential is expected to
    remain negligible through 12Z Wednesday.

    ...Central/southern WI...
    A conditional, low-probability setup from low-topped convection is
    evident from about midday to mid-afternoon Tuesday. A deep surface
    cyclone around 995 mb should track northeast from IA to central WI.
    Some models suggest a mesoscale-focused corridor of modest diabatic
    surface heating may overlap the northwest periphery of mid to upper
    50s dew points. This could yield scant surface-based buoyancy
    immediately ahead of the cyclone. However, this heating may occur
    once low-level winds begin to veer, yielding low confidence in
    whether enlarged hodographs will overlap the meager instability.
    Still, with most 00Z CAMs indicating discrete convection,
    low-probability tornado/wind highlights appear warranted.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE SABINE
    TO LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY...AND OVER PARTS OF WISCONSIN...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A tornado or two and locally damaging winds may occur on Tuesday
    across a portion of the Sabine to Lower Mississippi Valleys, and
    central to southern Wisconsin.

    ...Synopsis...

    A compact upper shortwave trough will shift northeast across the
    Middle and Upper MS Valley and upper Great Lakes vicinity on
    Tuesday. As the same time, another upper trough over the northern
    Rockies will dig south/southeast through the period, maintaining
    broad upper troughing over the West and into the Plains. Moderate to
    strong deep-layer southwesterly flow associated with the initial
    shortwave trough over the MS Valley will overspread east TX to the
    Great Lakes. At the surface, low pressure initially over northeast
    KS/northwest MO/southeast NE will lift northeast into southern
    Ontario by Wednesday morning. A cold front/composite outflow will
    extend from the Mid-MS Valley into east TX and the TX Gulf Coast
    vicinity. This boundary will slowly shift east through the period.
    Meanwhile, a warm front will be draped across the upper Great Lakes
    vicinity. Strong mid/upper level flow and these low-level boundaries
    and surface low will focus some potential for strong thunderstorms
    on Tuesday, mainly over WI and parts of southeast Texas to the Lower
    MS.

    ...East TX/Lower MS Valley...

    Convection will be ongoing Tuesday morning across east TX toward the
    TX coast as a cold front slowly progresses east. A corridor of
    modest instability will be in place ahead of the front from the TX
    coast/Sabine Valley into LA. Midlevel lapse rates are expected to
    remain poor. However, a moist boundary-layer (dewpoints in the low
    70s F) and moderate low-level and deep-layer shear will support
    organized convection. Forecast soundings indicate enlarged, looping
    hodographs, becoming elongated above 3 km. This suggests rotation
    may accompany convection, and a tornado or two will be possible,
    particularly across parts of LA into southwest AR where low-level
    shear will be somewhat more favorable compared to points further
    south near the TX coast. Otherwise, line segments and cells may also
    produce locally strong gusts. The severe risk should move offshore
    the TX coast by around midday/early afternoon, while persisting
    through the afternoon to early evening further north across LA and
    the southeast AR vicinity. Overall, severe risk should be tempered
    by poor lapse rates and only modest destabilization, along with
    generally weak large-scale ascent further removed from the ejecting
    upper shortwave trough.

    ...WI...

    Warm advection ahead of the surface low/cold front moving from IA
    into WI will result in showers/thunderstorms and widespread cloud
    cover through the morning. This will limit diurnal heating, through
    forecast soundings suggest some areas could warm into the mid 50s to
    near 60 F by mid afternoon. This could allow for weak
    destabilization, though may be ill-timed as low-level winds begin to
    veer with time. While this lends to uncertainty in severe potential,
    at least a low-end/conditional risk for a tornado or two, or locally
    strong gusts appears possible.

    KEYS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A few brief tornadoes will be possible within outer bands of
    Tropical Cyclone Rafael, from late morning into the evening
    Wednesday across the Keys and the far southern Peninsula of Florida.

    ...Keys/southern Peninsula of FL...
    Latest NHC forecast has Tropical Storm Rafael intensifying to a
    hurricane by 12Z Wednesday and moving across western Cuba into the
    eastern Gulf through early Thursday. Most 00Z guidance has trended
    farther northeast with the attendant belt of stronger low-level flow
    relative to 24 hours ago. As such, near-easterly surface winds
    veering to south-southeasterlies will yield hodograph enlargement.
    This increase should be favorably timed to the diurnal heating
    cycle, with peak low-level SRH anticipated during afternoon. Amid
    increasingly rich mean-mixing ratios of 17-18 g/kg, deeper outer
    band cells will likely rotate across the FL Straits and progress
    west-northwest across the Keys and adjacent peninsula. At least a
    few waterspouts appear probable and these may move across land as
    tornadoes. Overall threat should diminish Wednesday night as
    low-level SRH gradually subsides, and deep convection becomes
    confined to the Gulf.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN A PART OF WEST
    TX...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe thunderstorms are possible, beginning in the late
    afternoon Thursday across parts of west and central Texas. The most
    likely corridor for large hail will be over a part of west Texas on
    Thursday evening/night.

    ...West/central TX...
    A mid/upper low will drift east across AZ/NM through much of the day
    Thursday. By Thursday night, it should accelerate as an attendant
    mid-level jet becomes confined to the southeast quadrant of the
    cyclone. While a surface ridge will initially nose down the southern
    High Plains from an anticyclone over the central High Plains, this
    will eventually lose amplitude. Weak cyclogenesis should occur late
    in the period along an inverted surface trough in parts of west TX.

    A persistent increase in low-level moisture from the western Gulf
    will return northwestward through the period. While some elevated
    convection will be possible during the day, initially from central
    to northwest TX, the bulk of convective development should occur in
    the evening/night as the low-level jet broadly intensifies. This
    will be coincident with a gradual increase in mid-level height falls overspreading west TX Thursday night.

    A mesoscale corridor of relatively greater supercell potential
    appears evident during the evening/night. This appears centered on
    parts of the Lower Pecos Valley/Permian Basin and the western
    Edwards Plateau regions near the surface trough. While low-level
    lapse rates should be weak, strong southwesterly speed shear in the
    mid to upper levels will be favorable for a primary threat of large
    hail with a mix of cells/small clusters. An abrupt cutoff to
    surface-based severe convection is expected to the north/west of
    this corridor, especially as weak cyclogenesis occurs. While
    consistency has increased in guidance relative to 24 hours, where
    exactly this demarcation is will likely be modulated by how
    widespread elevated convection becomes during the evening to night.

    Severe thunderstorms are possible across parts of west and central

    A deep mid/upper-level low is forecast to move slowly eastward
    across AZ/NM on Thursday, before accelerating later Thursday night
    into early Friday morning. An expansive surface ridge will initially
    cover much of the western/central CONUS, though weak cyclogenesis is
    expected later in the period in the vicinity of an inverted surface
    trough over west TX. Seasonably rich surface moisture will stream
    westward across parts of western/central TX through the day, with
    increasing moisture also expected atop a relatively shallow

    also possible within the moistening/destabilizing warm sector. Storm
    coverage and the organized severe threat are expected to increase
    later in the evening into the overnight hours, as the low-level jet
    nocturnally intensifies and the mid/upper-level low approaches the
    region.

    Moderate instability and rather strong deep-layer shear will support
    the potential for a few supercells and organized clusters,
    especially across parts of the Permian Basin and Edwards Plateau
    regions. A threat for large hail and localized severe gusts will
    accompany the strongest storms. Also, while the bulk of the
    nocturnal convection may tend to be somewhat elevated, increasingly
    rich low-level moisture will support some potential for
    surface-based supercells near the surface trough/low, with favorably
    veering wind profiles supporting a threat of a tornado or two.

    ...Lower FL Keys...
    Hurricane Rafael is forecast to move westward across the southern
    Gulf of Mexico on Thursday; see NHC forecasts and advisories for
    more information. Relatively strong low-level flow to the east of
    Rafael may still be in place across the lower Keys at the start of
    the forecast period, though weakening is expected through the day as
    Rafael moves away from the region. While a low-probability tornado
    threat cannot be ruled out across parts of the lower Keys, the
    magnitude of the threat from 12Z onward appears too limited for
    probabilities at this time.

    Valid 081200Z - 091200Z

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN CENTRAL TO
    NORTH TX...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe thunderstorms are possible through early evening
    Friday across parts of central to north Texas.

    ...TX...
    A deep mid/upper-level cyclone will move north-northeastward from NM
    into the central High Plains. A weak surface low will similarly
    track northward from northwest TX into western KS before occluding.
    A trailing outflow-reinforced cold front should push east into
    central TX by late afternoon Friday. A surface ridge initially
    across the Mid-South will limit more substantial moisture return
    north of the Red River.

    Extensive convection will likely be ongoing at 12Z Friday across
    parts of west TX/OK. An isolated/marginal severe threat could
    accompany the storms during the morning across the Edwards Plateau
    vicinity, where more favorable mid-level instability will be.
    Surface-based destabilization will struggle across northern parts of
    TX and this should support increasingly pronounced differential
    heating from south to north across central TX. Guidance consensus
    suggests a separate arc of afternoon thunderstorm development should
    occur within a warm conveyor ahead of the surface front. This could
    foster a mesoscale uptick in severe potential approaching the I-35
    corridor late day. While low-level SRH should be modest where MLCAPE
    is more than meager, rich western Gulf moisture will support
    potential for a few supercells. Hail/wind may be the primary
    threats, but a couple tornadoes are also possible. Guidance does
    differ with how quickly the outflow-reinforced cold front pushes
    east during the day, yielding moderate uncertainty of where a
    greater severe threat may be.

    Given the north-northeast track of the upper low and associated weak
    surface cyclone, forcing for ascent should progressively wane during
    the evening from south to north. This suggests the severe threat
    will likely diminish after sunset.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PARTS OF
    CENTRAL AND NORTH TX...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe thunderstorms are possible through early/mid evening
    Friday across parts of central to north Texas. A couple of tornadoes
    will be possible, along with isolated hail and damaging winds.

    ...Texas...
    The Marginal Risk has been expanded somewhat with this outlook, but
    higher severe probabilities may eventually be needed for some part
    of central/north TX, if a mesoscale corridor of greater potential
    becomes apparent.

    A deep mid/upper-level cyclone will move north-northeastward from NM
    into the central High Plains on Friday. A weak surface low is
    forecast to move from parts of western north TX into western KS. A
    trailing outflow-reinforced cold front will move eastward across
    parts of central/north TX through the day and into the evening. Rich
    low-level moisture will be in place along/east of the front across
    parts of TX, though a surface ridge extending from the Midwest into
    the Mid-South will limit the northward extent of substantial
    moisture return. A diffuse warm front will likely become established
    somewhere across north TX, with low 60s F dewpoints to the north of
    the this front, and upper 60s to low 70s F dewpoints south of the
    front.

    Widespread convection will likely be ongoing Friday morning across
    parts of west TX/OK. Favorable low-level and deep-layer shear could
    support an isolated severe threat with the strongest early-day
    storms. Diurnal redevelopment will be possible across parts of
    central/north TX, both within a moist warm-conveyor east of the
    front, and also in the vicinity of the front itself by late
    afternoon. While stronger low-level flow will be lifting northward
    away from the warm sector through the day, somewhat backed low-level
    flow will maintain modestly favorable low-level shear/SRH, while
    deep-layer shear will remain sufficient for organized convection.
    Rich low-level moisture will support MLCAPE of 500-1500 J/kg
    (greater with southward extent) across the effective warm sector
    during the afternoon and early evening.

    A few supercells could evolve along/ahead of the cold front and
    near/south of the effective warm front during the afternoon and
    evening across parts of central/north TX, with at least some threat
    for all severe hazards. Guidance continues to vary regarding the
    evolution of early-day convection and related timing of the cold
    front, but a mesoscale corridor of somewhat greater severe threat
    could evolve with time, with potential for a couple of tornadoes and
    isolated hail/damaging gusts.

    A vertically stacked cyclone will pivot northeastward from the
    central High Plains into the Upper Midwest during the period. An
    occluded/cold front will initially arc southeast to south from the
    surface low. The trailing portion will slow and become nearly
    stationary from AR to the TX Gulf Coast by early Sunday. A warm
    front will attempt to advance north across the Lower MS Valley into
    the Mid-South by late afternoon Saturday. Rich low-level moisture
    will be present along/south of the front. But the belt of strong
    mid-level south-southwesterlies in the southeast quadrant of the
    cyclone will remain displaced well north of the warm front. Poor
    mid-level lapse rates will greatly hamper warm-sector buoyancy. Much
    of the thunderstorm activity should remain elevated and driven by
    the warm conveyor in a weakly buoyant profile.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe storms are not expected on Saturday or Saturday night.

    ...Synopsis...
    An upper cyclone over the central Plains will shift east/northeast
    through the period, becoming positioned over the Upper Midwest
    vicinity by Sunday morning. Moderate deep-layer southwesterly flow
    will overspread portions of the mid/upper MS Valley and Great Lakes
    ahead of this feature. Surface cyclogenesis is not expected to be
    strong, with low pressure over northwest KS actually weakening as it
    shifts northeast with time. Nevertheless, a broader area of low
    pressure will develop over the northern Plains to the Upper MS
    Valley.

    A warm front oriented over the Lower MS Valley/Mid-South vicinity
    will lift north through the period on increasing southerly low-level
    flow. This will allow for upper 50s to low 60s F dewpoints to spread
    northward across the Mid-South into the Mid-MS and Lower OH Valleys,
    with higher dewpoints further south across the Lower MS Valley. Warm
    850 mb temperatures will result in poor low-level lapse rates and
    the boundary-layer will remain capped through the period. Midlevel
    lapse rates are also forecast to remain poor, and instability will
    be scant. Furthermore, strong vertical shear will remain displaced
    from the deeper boundary-layer moisture. While elevated
    thunderstorms will be possible within the warm advection regime from
    the western Gulf Coast to the Mid-MS/Lower OH Valley region, severe
    storms are not expected.

    A shortwave trough and its attendant surface cyclone over the Upper

    from the Mid-South to the OH Valley. Surface-based storms will be
    possible southwestward to the western/central Gulf Coast. Poor lapse
    rates, weak buoyancy, and diminishing vertical shear will preclude
    severe storms.

    Across south FL, as moisture increases within a southeasterly
    low-level flow regime, isolated thunderstorms will be possible
    Sunday night.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe storms are not expected on Sunday or Sunday night.

    ...Synopsis...
    A compact upper-level cyclone over the middle MO Valley is forecast
    to quickly translate eastward, reaching the eastern Great Lakes and
    upper OH valley Sunday evening. At the surface, low pressure and a
    trailing cold front will accompany the upper low, moving into
    southern Canada by early Monday. Showers and elevated thunderstorms
    are likely along the front from the OH Valley, to the Mid-South and
    ArklaTex. Primarily elevated and within weak buoyancy and limited
    vertical shear, organized severe thunderstorms appear unlikely.
    Additional scattered air mass storms are possible across parts of
    the Carolinas, southern FL and the Gulf Coast.

    ...Mississippi Valley...
    In the immediate wake of the departing upper-level cyclone, weak and
    broad troughing will persist over parts of the middle and lower MS
    Valley. A northeast to southwest oriented frontal zone will bound
    the western edge of a plume of seasonably high surface moisture with
    dewpoints in the mid 60s F. Showers and thunderstorms are likely to
    be ongoing along and east of the front early Sunday. However, as the
    upper cyclone departs, forcing for ascent and stronger flow aloft
    will gradually diminish from west to east. Given the expected
    coverage of cloud debris and preceding precipitation, poor low and
    mid-level lapse rates are expected with sparse surface heating. This
    should limit diurnal destabilization to generally less than 1000
    J/kg of MUCAPE. While scattered thunderstorms are expected along and
    near the front through much of the day and into the evening poor
    lapse rates, weak buoyancy, and diminishing vertical shear will
    likely preclude severe potential.

    ...Southeast...
    Isolated, elevated thunderstorms may be ongoing across parts of the
    Carolina Coastal Plain. Weak tropospheric lapse rates will be a
    limiting factor to updraft intensity. Low-level flow will become
    increasingly veered during the day, yielding a predominately zonal
    flow regime. This should result in thunder potential shifting
    entirely offshore around midday.

    A few thunderstorms embedded within a corridor of slow-moving
    convection will be possible along a portion of the central Gulf
    Coast, before activity gradually wanes during the day. Isolated
    thunderstorms may also develop across a portion of south FL during
    the afternoon.

    ...Western WA/OR and northern CA...
    A leading shortwave trough and attendant surface cold front should
    move onshore Monday morning. In its wake, low to mid-level lapse
    rates will steepen amid meager buoyancy. An upstream shortwave
    impulse and persistent onshore low-level winds should support
    scattered, low-topped convection. Some of this will be sufficiently
    deep to foster sporadic lightning through Monday evening.
    Thunderstorm probabilities will diminish Monday night as the plume
    of steep mid-level lapse rates shifts farther inland.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM NORTHWEST
    TX TO FAR SOUTHWEST KS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe hail will be possible in parts of the southern
    High/Rolling Plains on Tuesday evening.

    ...Southern High/Rolling Plains...
    Zonal upper flow over the southern states will buckle as a
    full-latitude trough progresses eastward across the West. This
    trough should reach the Great Plains by 12Z Wednesday. Primary
    embedded shortwave impulse is expected to eject from the Four
    Corners into the central Great Plains. Low-level moisture quality
    downstream will be lacking, owing in part to the preceding presence
    of post-TC Rafael in the western Gulf. Modified moisture return will
    still emanate northward from northeast Mexico. Low to mid 50s
    surface dew points should reach the TX Panhandle by 00Z, with upper
    50s farther south in west TX. This should yield a narrow ribbon of
    weak buoyancy (MLCAPE around 500 J/kg), ahead of a sharpening
    surface trough.

    Confidence remains low in whether surface-based storms will become
    sustained prior to sunset, given the limited buoyancy and rather dry
    mid-levels within the southwesterly flow regime. More probable
    convective development is expected during the evening, as
    large-scale ascent increases with approach of the trough and
    strengthening low-level warm theta-e advection occurs. Favorable
    speed shear in the cloud-bearing layer will support potential for a
    few elevated supercells. Mid-level lapse rates appear modest, and
    this may hold hail magnitudes to marginally severe. The severe
    threat will probably be confined to the early/western portion of sustained-storm activity, but small hail may persist
    east-northeastward in parts of OK/KS Tuesday night.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
    THE TEXAS PANHANDLE AND SOUTH PLAINS...AND INTO WESTERN OKLAHOMA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A few elevated storms -- possibly capable of producing hail -- may
    develop across parts of the southern High Plains and into western
    Oklahoma Tuesday night.

    ...Synopsis...
    As an upper-level trough shifts across the northeastern U.S. and
    eventually vacates the CONUS, a second/high-amplitude trough
    crossing the western states is forecast to cross the High Plains and
    emerge into the Plains States during the second half of the period
    tomorrow (Tuesday).

    At the surface, an expansive area of high pressure will cover the
    eastern half of the U.S. in the wake of a prior cold-frontal
    passage, while remnants of Rafael linger over the western Gulf.
    Overnight, a cold front -- associated with the western upper trough
    -- is forecast to shift out of the Rockies and into the Plains.

    ...Texas Panhandle/South Plains region into western Oklahoma...
    Boundary-layer moisture return is forecast to be meager ahead of the
    advancing cold front, as northeasterly winds will persist across the
    western Gulf of Mexico west of the remnants of Rafael. As such,
    surface-based, diurnal convective development appears unlikely.
    With that said, elevated theta-e advection should be sufficient to
    allow thunderstorm development to occur across portions of the
    southern High Plains region and into parts of Kansas and Oklahoma
    overnight. Ample cloud-layer shear combined with 500 to 1000 J/kg
    elevated CAPE expected to evolve may allow a few storms to develop
    some mid-level rotation. As such, hail potential still appears
    sufficient to warrant maintenance of Level 1/MRGL risk across this
    area.

    MS VALLEY AND NORTHEAST GULF COAST...FOR COASTAL WA/OR/NORTHERN
    CA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A marginal tornado/wind threat is apparent on Wednesday afternoon
    into Wednesday night across a part of the central Gulf Coast States. Thunderstorms with strong to locally severe gusts are also possible
    near the immediate coasts of Washington, Oregon, and northern
    California.

    ...Synopsis...
    A mid/upper-level shortwave trough is forecast to move eastward from
    the Great Plains toward the Midwest and OH/TN Valleys on Wednesday.
    In conjunction with this shortwave trough, a weak surface low will
    move from the east-central Plains toward the Great Lakes region, as
    a trailing cold front moves through parts of the middle/lower MS
    Valley. Farther west, a deep mid/upper-level trough will progress
    farther inland across the western CONUS, as an embedded shortwave
    moves across northern CA into the interior Northwest.

    ...Lower Mississippi Valley/Central Gulf Coast region...
    Rich low-level moisture (with upper 60s to lower 70s F dewpoints) is
    forecast to gradually spread northward across the lower MS Valley
    region from later in the D1/Tuesday period into D2/Wednesday. Weak
    lapse rates will tend to limit instability, while stronger
    mid/upper-level flow will generally remain north of the richer
    moisture. However, deep-layer shear will likely become at least
    marginally supportive of organized storms, while some enhancement to
    low-level flow/shear is forecast as the shortwave trough to the
    north glances the region. This evolution could support a few
    marginal supercells and/or stronger clusters during the afternoon
    and evening, with a threat of locally damaging winds and possibly a
    tornado or two.

    Elevated storms will also be possible through the day/evening to the
    north of the richer surface moisture. While effective shear will be
    sufficient for a few strong elevated storms, the severe potential
    with northward extent will tend to be limited by weak midlevel lapse
    rates and generally marginal MUCAPE.

    ...WA/OR/northern CA coasts...
    Cooling temperatures aloft will support weak destabilization in the
    vicinity of the WA/OR/northern CA coasts through the day on
    Wednesday. While convection will be rather low-topped, instability
    may become sufficient (with SBCAPE potentially in the 200-500 J/kg
    range) for occasional thunderstorms. The strongest low-level flow
    will precede the primary destabilization, but persistent and rather
    strong deep-layer southwesterly flow could support modestly
    organized line segments and/or weakly rotating cells, with a threat
    of isolated severe convective gusts and perhaps some small hail. A
    brief tornado also cannot be ruled out, though the favored location
    (if any) of any longer-lived rotating cells remains uncertain at
    this time.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY/CENTRAL GULF COAST REGION...AND COASTAL PORTIONS
    OF PACIFIC NORTHWEST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A marginal tornado/wind threat is apparent on Wednesday afternoon
    into Wednesday night across a part of the central Gulf Coast States. Thunderstorms with strong to locally severe gusts are also possible
    near the immediate coasts of Washington, Oregon, and northern
    California.

    ...Synopsis...
    A shortwave trough is forecast to move from the Plains through the
    MS Valley on Wednesday, becoming more negatively tilted as it does.
    An occluded surface low associated with this system will begin the
    period over the mid MO Valley before moving eastward across IA and
    reaching the northern IL early Thursday morning. More consequently
    for the severe-weather potential, a secondary triple-point low is
    expected to progress eastward across the northern portion of the
    Southeast states, along the northern edge of an eastward-evolving
    warm sector. Cold front associated with this low will gradually move
    eastward across the Southeast states during the day.

    Farther west, an upper-level trough is forecast to progress farther
    inland across the western CONUS, as an embedded shortwave trough
    moves across northern CA into the interior Northwest/northern Great
    Basin.

    ...Lower Mississippi Valley/Central Gulf Coast...
    General expectation is for a triple-point surface low to evolve over
    the Mid-South vicinity through the early afternoon as low-level
    moisture continues to advect northward across the central Gulf Coast
    region. Dewpoints in the upper 60s/low 70s are anticipated ahead of
    this low and associated cold front. The airmass is expected to
    destabilize amid this low-level moisture, but overall buoyancy will
    still be modest given the lack of steep lapse rates. The combination
    of destabilization and increasing ascent is forecast to result in
    thunderstorm development across the warm sector, but along and ahead
    of the eastward-progressing cold front.

    The stronger shear will likely be displaced north of the stronger
    buoyancy, but enough shear is expected across the warm sector to
    support organized storms if updrafts can persist and deepen. This
    evolution could support a few marginal supercells and/or stronger
    clusters during the afternoon and evening, with a threat of locally
    damaging winds and possibly a tornado or two.

    Elevated storms will also be possible through the day/evening to the
    north of the richer surface moisture. While effective shear will be
    sufficient for a few strong elevated storms, the severe potential
    with northward extent will tend to be limited by weak midlevel lapse
    rates and generally marginal buoyancy.

    ...WA/OR/Northern CA coasts...
    Cold mid-level temperatures (i.e. -24 to -28 deg C at 500 mb)
    associated with the upper trough are expected to spread eastward
    throughout the day. These cold mid-level temperatures and associated
    steep mid-level lapse rates will contribute to modest buoyancy along
    the coastal portions of the Pacific Northwest. Highest storm
    coverage is anticipated over the northern CA coast vicinity from the
    late morning into the early afternoon along as the frontal band
    moves through, but persistent forcing for ascent within this
    modestly buoyant airmass is expected to result in more cellular
    storms throughout the remainder of the afternoon and evening. A more
    linear mode is anticipated within the frontal band, with a few
    convectively enhanced gusts possible. Low-topped cellular activity
    is anticipated in the wake of the frontal band, with a few instances
    of small hail, and potentially even a brief tornado, possible.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A few strong storms will be possible near the central and northeast
    Gulf Coasts early on Thursday, and later across coastal parts of the
    Carolinas Thursday evening and night. Organized severe potential
    appears relatively low at this time.

    ...Synopsis...
    A negatively tilted mid/upper-level trough initially over the
    Midwest/Ohio Valley is forecast to dig southeastward on Thursday and
    evolve into a closed mid/upper-level low as it approaches the Mid
    Atlantic. As this occurs, a surface low is forecast to deepen
    Thursday night along a frontal boundary near the Coastal Carolinas.
    Farther west, a mid/upper-level shortwave trough is forecast to move
    eastward and amplify as it approaches the Pacific Coast and
    eventually moves inland.

    ...Central/northeast Gulf Coast vicinity...
    Thunderstorms will likely be ongoing Thursday morning across parts
    of AL/GA and the FL Panhandle, aided by the mid/upper-level
    shortwave trough moving across the Ohio Valley and attendant
    low-level jet. Low-level flow will tend to veer and weaken through
    the day, which will tend to result in less convective organization
    with time. However, if organized convection from late on
    D1/Wednesday can persist into Thursday morning, then rich low-level
    moisture and sufficient low-level and deep-layer shear could support
    a threat of isolated damaging winds and possibly a tornado.
    Probabilities may eventually be needed if it appears that some
    severe threat may continue from overnight Wednesday into the first
    part of Thursday.

    ...Coastal Carolinas...
    Uncertainty remains regarding the northward extent of appreciable
    surface moistening/destabilization near the Coastal Carolinas, as
    the surface low deepens and tracks east-northeastward into Friday
    morning. However, there appears to be some potential for the
    effective warm front to overlap parts of coastal NC and the Outer
    Banks during the evening, as stronger deep-layer flow and ascent
    overspread the region. Increasingly widespread precipitation will
    tend to limit destabilization, but favorable wind profiles will
    support organized convective potential where modest buoyancy can
    develop. Probabilities may eventually be needed near the coast and
    Outer Banks, if confidence increases regarding the potential for
    isolated damaging winds and/or a tornado later in the forecast
    period.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A few strong storms will be possible near the central Gulf Coast and
    Florida Panhandle early on Thursday, and later across coastal parts
    of the Carolinas Thursday evening into Friday morning. Organized
    severe potential appears relatively low at this time.

    ...Synopsis...
    A negatively tilted shortwave trough is forecast to extend from the
    Upper Midwest through the TN Valley early Thursday morning before
    continuing eastward across the OH Valley while developing a closed
    mid-level circulation. By early Friday morning, the resulting upper
    low is expected to be over the Mid-Atlantic with enhanced mid-level
    flow throughout its base from the TN Valley to off the Southeast
    coast. In response to this evolution, a surface low is expected to
    deepen as it moves northeastward over the coastal Carolinas.

    At the same time, upper ridging is expected to build across the
    Plains in response to a deepening upper trough forecast to move over
    the West Coast late Thursday night/early Friday morning. Isolated
    thunderstorms are possible across the Pacific Northwest coast,
    fostered by cold temperatures aloft and persistent large-scale
    forcing for ascent.

    ...Central Gulf Coast into the FL Panhandle...
    A triple-point low will likely be centered over central AL early
    Thursday morning, with a cold front extending southwestward from
    this low off the AL coast and a warm front extending
    east-southeastward across central GA. This warm front is expected to
    become more stationary throughout the day as the dry and cool
    airmass to its north remains in place. The surface low and
    associated front are still expected to continue eastward, with this
    overall evolution confining the warm sector to south of central GA.
    The low-level jet is expected to weaken throughout the day while
    also remaining displaced north of the warm sector.

    Showers and thunderstorms will likely be ongoing along and ahead of
    the cold front early Thursday morning. However, the evolution
    described above is expected to result in gradually diminishing
    coverage while also limiting storm organization/strength. A few
    stronger storms are possible early, but overall severe potential
    appears too low to introduce any probabilities.

    ...Coastal Carolinas...
    Triple-point low initially over central AL is forecast to progress
    eastward along the stationary front across GA before then continuing northeastward across the eastern SC and coastal NC along a
    developing warm frontal zone. Low-level moisture advection will
    precede this low, with low to mid 60s dewpoints likely penetrating
    slightly inland across the eastern Carolinas. Even with this
    moisture advection, buoyancy will be limited by poor lapse rates,
    with some guidance even suggesting surface-based convective
    inhibition persists throughout Thursday night/early Friday morning.
    Most favorable location for a few stronger storms is expected to be
    near the surface low, where mesoscale lift will augment the larger
    scale forcing, helping to overcome any remaining convective
    inhibition. Moderate deep-layer shear will be in place throughout
    the region, suggesting any deep updrafts could become more
    organized. However, overall severe coverage is expected to remain
    too low to introduce any probabilities.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are not expected on Friday.

    ...Synopsis...
    A deepening cyclone initially centered near the NC Outer Banks on
    Friday morning is forecast to quickly move offshore through the day,
    as a trailing cold front moves across the Florida Peninsula and Gulf
    of Mexico. A deep mid/upper-level trough will move slowly eastward
    across the western CONUS, with some further amplification of this
    trough expected through the forecast period.

    Thunderstorm potential will be low across most of the CONUS due to
    generally limited moisture/instability. Some thunderstorm potential
    may linger very early in the period across coastal NC, before the
    low moves farther offshore with time. Weak convection with sporadic
    lightning flashes will be possible across parts of central/northern
    CA into the Great Basin in association with the western trough.
    Confidence in sufficient coverage remains too low to include any
    general thunderstorm areas across the West at this time.

    ...Synopsis...
    A maturing mid-latitude cyclone is forecast to begin the period over
    eastern NC before then continuing eastward into the western
    Atlantic. A few lightning flashes are possible within the warm
    conveyor of this cyclone early Friday morning, but any higher storm
    coverage is expected to remain well offshore.

    The upper pattern farther west across the majority of the CONUS is
    expected to amplify as a strong trough gradually progresses from the
    West Coast to the Intermountain West, and downstream ridging across
    the Plains builds as it moves through the MS Valley. By early
    Saturday morning, the upper troughing is forecast to extend from Alberta/Saskatchewan southwestward to off southern CA/northern Baja
    Peninsula, and upper ridging will likely extend from the central
    Gulf of Mexico through the Upper Great Lakes into northwestern
    Ontario.

    A few flashes are possible along the trough as it moves across
    northern/central CA and into the Great Basin, supported by cold
    mid-level temperatures and strong ascent. However, coverage is
    currently expected to remain below 10%. A dry continental airmass
    and warm mid-level temperatures will remain over the Plains,
    precluding any buoyancy.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated thunderstorms will be possible on Saturday from the central
    Plains northeastward into the western Great Lakes, but no severe
    threat is expected.

    ...Synopsis and Discussion...
    Deep upper troughing is expected to extend from Alberta/Saskatchewan southwestward to off the southern CA/northern Baja Coast, covering
    much of the western/central CONUS early Saturday morning. The mean
    upper trough is forecast to gradually progress eastward throughout
    the day while a pair of embedded shortwave troughs evolve eastward/southeastward. The northernmost shortwave will likely
    progress across the northern Plains into the Upper Midwest while the southernmost wave progresses southeastward across southern CA into
    the northern/central Baja Peninsula. By early Sunday morning,
    enhanced southwesterly flow aloft is expected to extend between
    these two shortwaves, from northern Mexico across the southern High
    Plains and central Plains into the Upper Midwest.

    Surface low associated with the northern shortwave trough will
    likely begin the day over western SD before then progressing
    northeastward across the central/eastern Dakotas and northwestern MN
    throughout the period. An associated cold front will push eastward/southeastward across the northern and central Plains and
    into the Upper Midwest in the wake of this low.

    Airmass modification is anticipated across the Plains throughout the
    period as low-level flow veers to southeasterly across the western
    Gulf of Mexico and a modest low-level jet develops in response to
    the northern Plains shortwave trough. However, this early-stage
    moisture return will remain confined to the southern Plains where
    warm mid-level temperatures will preclude any buoyancy. A plume of
    elevated moisture could support weak elevated convection farther
    north, beginning across parts of the central Plains late Saturday afternoon/early evening and continuing into the Upper Midwest late
    Saturday night into early Sunday. Highest coverage is expected
    across WI early Sunday morning. Limited buoyancy throughout these
    areas will keep storm strength modest and keeping the
    severe-thunderstorm threat low.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
    THE SOUTHERN HIGH PLAINS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Strong to severe thunderstorms are expected to develop across parts
    of western, central and northwest Texas from Sunday evening through
    daybreak on Monday, posing a risk for severe gusts and possibly a
    tornado or two.

    ...Southern High Plains...
    A mid-level low and an associated trough will move into northern
    Mexico on Sunday, reaching the southern High Plains Sunday night.
    Ahead of the trough, strong moisture advection will occur across the
    southern Plains. Surface dewpoints are forecast to increase in the
    50s F across parts of west and northwest Texas, and into the 60s F
    across much of west-central and north-central Texas. A large area of
    convection is expected to develop by early Sunday evening ahead of
    the trough from southeast New Mexico into parts of far west and
    west-central Texas. This will occur as a 40 to 50 knot low-level jet strengthens across the southern High Plains. Aided by strong
    large-scale ascent, and a rapid low-level jet response, scattered
    strong to severe storms are expected to develop over parts of the
    southern High Plains. Model forecasts are in relatively good
    agreement, showing potential for MCS development late Sunday evening
    into Sunday night.

    Although instability will remain weak ahead of the system, a steady
    ramp up of instability and low-level moisture is expected over the
    southern Plains. Between 03Z and 09Z on Sunday evening, ECMWF
    forecast soundings increase MLCAPE into the 500 to 1000 J/kg range
    over parts of west-central and northwest Texas. This suggests that
    the severe threat that develops with the MCS should continue into
    the overnight period. The current thinking is that a line of strong
    to severe storms will become organized and move across west-central
    and northwest Texas from late Sunday evening into the overnight. The
    primary mode is expected to be linear, although isolated discrete
    supercells, with tornado potential, may develop ahead of the line.
    Otherwise, the primary threat should be for severe gusts along the
    leading edge of a quasi-linear convective system. The severe threat
    may continue to the end of the period, as a band of focused
    large-scale ascent couples with a strong low-level jet to maintain
    strong convective development with the MCS.

    WESTERN INTO CENTRAL TEXAS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Strong to severe thunderstorms are expected to develop across parts
    of western, central and northwest Texas from Sunday evening through
    daybreak on Monday, posing a risk for severe gusts and possibly a
    few tornadoes.

    ...Synopsis...
    A negatively tilted mid-level trough will eject into the southern
    Plains tomorrow (Sunday) into tomorrow night as a second mid-level
    trough impinges on the Interior West. By tomorrow night into early
    Monday morning, surface low development is expected across western
    TX as strong upper support and an 80 kt mid-level speed max
    overspread the southern Plains. Low-level warm-air advection
    accompanying the developing surface low will support modest
    boundary-layer destabilization across central TX into southern OK,
    where adequate lift and shear will support some potential for severe thunderstorms.

    ...Southern Plains - Sunday Night into early Monday Morning...
    By around 06Z Monday morning, a surface low should begin to
    materialize just south of the TX Panhandle with the ejection of the aforementioned mid-level trough. Despite poor low and mid-level
    lapse rates, modest surface-850 mb theta-e advection will support a
    corridor of 500-750 J/kg SBCAPE across central TX into extreme
    southern OK during the 06-12Z time frame. Given strong forcing for
    ascent and south-southwesterly 500 mb flow oriented roughly parallel
    with an approaching cold front, a squall line is expected to develop
    and advance northeast in tandem with the surface low. Modest veering
    but rapid strengthening with height of the vertical wind profile
    will support large, curved hodographs ahead of the squall line.
    0-500 m SRH may exceed 200 m2/s2, with 0-3 km SRH reaching 400 m2/s2
    in spots. However, questions remain regarding how much SRH can be
    effectively ingested into thunderstorm updrafts given scant buoyancy
    profiles. Still, effective downward momentum transport of the strong
    synoptic flow aloft may support severe gusts within the squall line. Furthermore, if strong enough low-level WAA can appreciably
    destabilize the nocturnal boundary-layer, then isolated QLCS
    tornadoes may also occur. Any QLCS tornadoes that can develop will
    most likely occur with any LEWPS or mesovortices within portions of
    the squall line preceding the surface low track, where low-level
    winds will be most backed and low-level shear will be strongest.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
    THE SOUTHERN PLAINS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Thunderstorms associated with isolated severe gusts and perhaps a
    tornado will be possible across parts of north Texas and southern
    Oklahoma Monday morning. A marginal risk for severe gusts is
    expected across a relatively large area during the afternoon and
    evening from the eastern parts of the southern and central Plains
    eastward into the Ozarks and lower Mississippi Valley.

    ...Southern and Central Plains/Ozarks/Lower Missouri Valley...
    A negatively-tilted mid-level trough is forecast to be in the
    southern High Plains at the start of the period. A squall-line is
    expected to be ongoing ahead of the trough at 12Z from central and
    north Texas into southern Oklahoma. Along the leading edge of this
    organized linear MCS, a wind-damage threat is expected Monday
    morning. A tornado will also be possible with any rotating element
    within the line. The line is expected to weaken by midday as the
    mid-level trough moves away to the northeast, with the associated
    low moving into the central Plains. As surface heating takes place,
    additional thunderstorms are expected to develop during the
    afternoon across parts of the southern and central Plains. Isolated
    severe gusts and hail will be possible with the stronger cells.
    Ahead of the trough, an isolated wind-damage and/or tornado threat
    may develop across the lower Missouri Valley and Ozarks during the
    late afternoon. The severe threat is expected to be marginal due to
    very weak instability.

    ...Sabine Valley/Lower Mississippi Valley...
    In the wake of the mid-level trough, southwesterly mid-level flow
    will be in place across the western Gulf Coast states on Monday. A
    moist and unstable airmass is forecast to move from far southeast
    Texas late Monday afternoon into southern Louisiana during the
    evening. Thunderstorms will likely develop across much of the Lower
    Mississippi Valley, as low-level flow increases in the evening.
    Model consensus suggests that MCS development will be likely across
    parts of the lower Mississippi Valley. A relatively large number of
    storms should help to overturn much of the airmass. Also, the
    stronger mid-level flow is forecast to remain well to the north,
    suggesting that any wind-damage threat associated with the MCS
    should be marginal.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PORTIONS OF
    NORTHERN TEXAS INTO CENTRAL OKLAHOMA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Thunderstorms associated with isolated severe gusts and perhaps a
    few tornadoes will be possible across parts of north Texas into
    central Oklahoma Monday morning. A marginal risk for severe gusts is
    expected across a relatively large area during the afternoon and
    evening from the eastern parts of the southern and central Plains
    eastward into the Ozarks and lower Mississippi Valley.

    ...Synopsis...
    A negatively tilted and pronounced mid-level trough over the
    southern Plains will quickly eject into the MS Valley in tandem with
    a rapidly deepening surface low tomorrow (Monday). A potentially
    severe squall line is expected to be ongoing at the start of the
    period across north TX into central OK. Through the afternoon
    though, stronger upper support should become increasingly displaced
    from the better low-level moisture and instability to the south,
    supporting a more isolated severe threat across portions of the MO
    Valley into the southern MS Valley later in the day toward evening.
    An additional round of isolated strong to potentially severe
    thunderstorms may also develop closer to the surface low over
    central and eastern KS tomorrow afternoon as well.

    ...Southern Plains into the MO Valley...
    A QLCS/squall-line should be in progress immediately ahead of a
    surface low across southwestern OK into northwestern TX at 12Z
    Monday morning. The squall line will continue to move east-northeast
    with the surface low amid a 70+ kt southerly low-level jet,
    overspread by 70-90 kts of southwesterly 500 mb flow from the
    ejecting trough. Large and curved hodographs should precede the
    squall line amid 500 J/kg SBCAPE, driven mainly by mid 60s F surface
    dewpoints beneath poor mid-level lapse rates. Despite meager
    buoyancy through the troposphere, strong forcing for ascent and
    impressive deep-layer/low-level shear profiles may still support
    severe gusts and a few tornadoes during the morning hours.

    Through the afternoon and evening hours, QG ascent associated with
    the northeastward ejecting mid-level trough, and the surface low,
    will outpace the richer low-level moisture closer to the Red River,
    which may dampen the severe threat to a degree. Nonetheless, the
    persistence of strong shear and forcing with the eastward-tracking
    squall line will support the potential for a severe gust or a
    tornado.

    ...Southeast TX into the Lower MS Valley...
    As the mid-level trough and surface cyclone track toward the Mid-MS
    Valley through the day, trailing portions of the aforementioned
    squall line will interact with an increasingly moist and unstable
    boundary layer across southeastern TX into the Lower MS Valley.
    Furthermore, guidance consensus shows that the entrance region of
    the low-level jet may also persist across eastern TX and points east
    ahead of the squall line, encouraging modestly elongated and curved
    hodographs and 200+ m2/s2 0-3 km SRH. As such, a couple of severe
    gusts and perhaps a tornado or two may develop if more pronounced
    mesovortices or embedded supercell structures can develop within the
    squall line.

    ...Central and eastern KS...
    Behind the initial squall line and broader
    cloudy/precipitation-laden WAA regime, some clearing may take place
    immediately ahead of the surface low track, allowing for marginal boundary-layer destabilization. As such, a couple of thunderstorms
    may develop ahead of the surface low amid modestly steep
    tropospheric lapse rates and unidirectional vertical wind
    profiles/strong speed shear. Any of the more robust updrafts that
    can develop may produce a severe gust, tornado, or instance of
    marginally severe hail during the afternoon.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Thunderstorms associated with isolated severe gusts and perhaps a
    tornado will be possible across parts of the central Gulf states on
    Tuesday.

    ...Central Gulf Coast States...
    Southwesterly mid-level flow will remain in place over much of the
    Southeast on Tuesday, as a cold front advances eastward into the
    region. A moist airmass will be in place ahead of the front in the
    Gulf Coast states, with surface dewpoints from the mid 60s to lower
    70s F. As surface heating takes place during the day, thunderstorm
    development is expected from near the front eastward across the much
    of the moist sector. Although instability will be weak, strong
    low-level flow will aid convective development, and a few severe
    storms will be possible. The greatest severe threat will exist in
    the vicinity of the central Gulf Coast, where the combination of
    low-level shear and moisture may be enough for an isolated tornado
    threat.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Thunderstorms associated with isolated severe gusts and perhaps a
    tornado will be possible across parts of the central Gulf states on
    Tuesday.

    ...Central Gulf Coast...
    The potent mid-level trough moving across the central Plains and
    Midwest on D1/Monday will move into the Great Lakes and weaken on
    D2/Tuesday. A slow advancing cold front will be left in its wake
    from the southern Great Lakes to the central Gulf Coast. An
    anomalously moist airmass will be in place with all time daily
    maximum PWAT values likely from Slidell, LA to Wilmington, OH with
    likely top 5 monthly all time maximum values. As a result, extensive
    cloudcover and precipitation is expected across the warm sector
    which will limit instability. In addition, forcing will be weakening
    through the day. The combination of the meager instability and lack
    of forcing will limit severe weather potential except for where
    upper 60s dewpoints are forecast, which should support at least some instability and damaging wind threat.

    The best potential for severe weather will be across far southeast
    LA, far southern MS/AL, and the FL Panhandle, where low 70s
    dewpoints will support around 250-500 J/kg MLCAPE. Ahead of the
    front, significant low-level wind shear will be present with 40
    knots of flow at 1km and low-level veering winds. Therefore, some
    damaging wind gusts and perhaps a tornado will be possible with any
    stronger storms which can develop in this region during the day.

    ...Pacific Northwest...
    Cellular convection is possible along the Pacific Northwest coast
    after 06Z Wed as temperatures cool aloft and 200-400 J/kg MLCAPE
    develops along the coast. Any of these storms could have some gusty
    winds associated with them given around 40 knots of synoptic flow
    around 500 meters above the surface.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe weather is not expected on Wednesday. Isolated thunderstorms
    are most likely over parts of Florida and the Carolinas, and along
    the coastal Pacific Northwest.

    ...Synopsis...
    On Wednesday, a deep upper trough will extend from a low over
    northern MN southward toward the Ozarks, and will pivot northeast
    across the OH Valley and Midwestern states, becoming negatively
    tilted. A tight midlevel temperature gradient and 130 kt speed max
    will relax somewhat through 00Z. Then, a secondary strong speed max
    will develop overnight from the mid MS Valley into the southern
    Appalachians.

    Meanwhile, an upper ridge will gradually move east toward the
    Rockies, with resulting northwest flow regime across the Plains.

    At the surface, high pressure will be entrenched from the Rockies
    into the central and southern Plains, and extending into the Gulf of
    Mexico where strong offshore flow will exist. A low will develop
    near Lake Erie during the day, with the cold front pushing into the
    Mid Atlantic to the Carolinas late in the day.

    ...Carolinas...
    Low-level moisture with 60s F dewpoints will spread north across the
    eastern Carolinas and into southeast VA through 00Z ahead of the
    cold front. Deep-layer shear will increase as the upper trough
    swings east, with very weak instability developing.

    Forecast soundings indicate poor low-level lapse rates/heating, with substantial midlevel drying. In addition, a prominent subsidence
    inversion is present in several model depictions. Given a lack of
    appreciable low-level flow fields to support wind gusts, strong
    storms are not expected.

    ...Florida...
    Area of thunderstorms are forecast over the eastern Gulf of Mexico
    early on Wednesday, with a plume of instability ahead of a cold
    front. While some of this activity will move across the Peninsula,
    it appears the boundary layer will be relatively cool. As such,
    despite the moderate low-level SRH during the morning along the
    western coasts, most of it should be rendered in-effective.

    ...Ohio and Vicinity...
    A very strong vorticity maximum will travel east across IN, OH, the
    upper OH Valley and into western PA and Lake Erie on Wednesday.
    Large-scale ascent will be strong, with rapidly cooling temperatures
    aloft. Shallow convection may develop with limited heating along the
    cold front, which will itself result in gusty winds with 30 kt
    ambient flow just off the surface. While severe storms are unlikely,
    a flash or two cannot be ruled out given such cool temperatures
    aloft.

    ...Coastal Pacific Northwest...
    Strong cooling aloft on the north size of a midlevel temperature
    gradient will exist over northwest OR into western WA with a slowly
    weakening midlevel jet. Weak low-level CAPE will develop mainly over
    the water. However, some cams show low-topped storms possibly moving
    ashore, and wind shear will be strong. While locally strong gusts
    cannot be ruled out, the severe risk appears low at this time.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe weather is not expected on Wednesday. Isolated thunderstorms
    are most likely over parts of Florida and the Carolinas, and along
    the coastal Pacific Northwest.

    ...Synopsis...
    A deep upper trough/low will evolve eastward from the Upper MS
    Valley into the Great Lakes through the period. In response, a
    surface low will deepen and gradually occlude over the Great Lakes,
    while a related cold front moves eastward across the eastern states.
    Strong midlevel height falls preceding the upper trough will promote
    scattered showers with isolated/embedded lightning along/ahead of
    the cold front. Despite strong deep-layer westerly flow/shear
    accompanying the trough, limited heating/poor lapse rates and dry
    air aloft should limit updraft intensity. Over the western FL
    Peninsula, richer boundary-layer moisture will be in place
    along/ahead of the front, where guidance indicates a weak frontal
    wave low during the morning. Here, strong low-level flow (and curved
    low-level hodographs) could favor a few strong/rotating storms
    approaching the coast, though weak instability/lapse rates should
    limit the severe threat over land.

    Farther west, several perturbations embedded in a belt of strong mid/upper-level westerly flow -- within the base of a midlevel low
    off the BC coast -- will promote isolated thunderstorms across the
    Pacific Northwest coast through the period. Elongated hodographs
    (with ample low-level curvature) will conditionally support a few strong/embedded cells capable of locally strong gusts and possibly
    waterspouts. However, any severe threat onshore appears too
    conditional for severe probabilities at this time.

    Thunderstorms are not expected on Thursday.

    ...Synopsis...
    A stable pattern in terms of thunderstorm potential will exist
    across the CONUS on Thursday, with a large upper cyclone over the
    eastern states and a ridge over the Rockies. High pressure will
    stretch from the Great Basin/Rockies across the Plains and into the
    Southeast, with a low over the Northeast. This will result in
    offshore flow across the Gulf of Mexico and western Atlantic, and
    maintain a relatively CAPE-free air mass over land.

    A very low change of sporadic lightning flashes may brush parts of
    southern New England as moisture and elevated theta-e wraps
    northwestward toward the surface low. However, this instability will
    be elevated in nature, with such low values suggesting less than 10%
    chance of lightning.

    A few thunderstorms are possible along the Pacific Northwest Coast

    ...Synopsis...
    A large, deep upper low will exist over the northeast Friday
    morning, and will gradually weaken as it drifts east through the

    Rockies into the Plains, while yet another trough pushes across the
    Pacific Northwest region late.

    Substantial northwest surface winds will maintain relatively stable
    conditions from the Plains to the East Coast, with no instability
    forecast over much of the CONUS.

    The exception will be again along the coastal counties of WA and OR,
    as strong cooling aloft occurs. Scattered low-topped convection will
    be most likely over the ocean overnight. A few thunderstorms may
    move onshore, but at this time the stronger shear farther north does
    not appear to overlap with the minimal instability required for a
    severe threat.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A few thunderstorms are possible along the Pacific Northwest Coast
    Friday. Severe storms are not expected.

    ...Synopsis...
    Amplified mid-level flow is likely over much of the CONUS Friday,
    with a deep upper low off the East Coast and a similarly deep trough
    off the West Coast. Between the two lows, a shortwave ridge will
    slowly migrate eastward over the central Plains. At the surface, a
    low and trailing cold front will steadily move offshore through the
    day over the East. High pressure and offshore flow are likely over
    the central CONUS. While along the West Coast, a pronounced low and
    onshore flow will continue.

    As the upper trough continues to shift eastward, cool and stable
    offshore flow should limit buoyancy and deep convection over the
    eastern 2/3rds of the CONUS. The only exception to this could be
    brief, low-topped storms near Cape Cod. A few deeper convective
    elements embedded within broad stratiform could produce sporadic
    lightning before stronger offshore flow shifts any lingering
    buoyancy completely offshore by midday.

    Across the Pacific Northwest, continuous onshore flow is likely as
    the cold core of the upper trough (-28 to -30 C 500 mb temps) moves
    onshore late in the day and overnight. Scattered low-topped
    convection will be most likely over the ocean overnight, but a few thunderstorms with sporadic lightning could move inland. With very
    weak MUCAPE (100-200 J/kg) any stronger updrafts will likely be
    brief. Strong deep-layer shear could briefly overlap with the
    buoyancy supporting a sporadic strong wind gust near the coast.
    However, the transient nature of the updrafts should keep the severe
    risk negligible.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms appear unlikely across the CONUS Saturday.

    ...Synopsis...
    On Saturday, a large upper trough will move out of the northeastern
    states, with a weak upper ridge moving across the Plains and toward
    the MS Valley. To the west, a large upper trough will continue
    eastward across the Great Basin and much of the central and northern
    Rockies. A lead wave will likely pivot northeastward toward the
    Dakotas late.

    At the surface, a large area of high pressure will exist from the
    southern Plains into the Southeast, maintaining stable conditions.
    Low pressure will exist ahead of a cold front from the eastern Great
    Basin into the northern High Plains by late in the day.

    A low chance of a few lightning flashes may exist along the coastal
    Pacific Northwest where cold temperatures aloft may result in weak
    buoyancy. Otherwise, minimal activity will be possible over parts of
    central ID and vicinity as lapse rates steepen.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms appear unlikely across the CONUS Saturday.

    ...Synopsis...
    Mid-level flow over the CONUS will continue to deamplify as a large
    trough moves offshore in the East. Shortwave ridging over the
    central US will weaken as it moves east behind the departing trough.
    Over the West, broad troughing and strong mid-level flow will
    gradually move inland, with a lead shortwave reaching the northern
    Rockies by early Sunday.

    At the surface, high pressure will shift eastward with offshore flow
    over the eastern third of the US. At the same time, a weak surface
    low and cold front associated with the lead shortwave, will
    translate through the Great Basin and northern Rockies before
    intensifying on the leeward side. A few lightning flashes are
    possible with low-topped storms ahead of the cold front over the
    northern Rockies Saturday. Isolated storms are also possible along
    the Pacific Coast beneath the broad trough with onshore flow and
    weak destabilization. Otherwise, cool, dry and stable conditions
    will prevent thunderstorms over the remainder of the CONUS.

    On Sunday, an upper trough will depart the northeastern states as an
    elongated mid/upper level speed max extends across the Four Corners
    states and into the Plains. This feature will phase with an upper
    low/trough extending from southern SK/MB into the northern Plains,
    with ridging over the East.

    A low pressure trough will exist ahead of the cold front from the
    upper MS Valley into the southern High Plains around 00Z, extending
    from Lower MI into northern TX by 12Z Monday.

    Ahead of this front, southerly winds will result in a batch of low
    60s F dewpoints from eastern TX toward AR, but the air mass should
    remain capped with little of any convection along the intersecting
    cold front.

    Elsewhere, cool air aloft will remain over much of the northwestern

    Severe thunderstorms are not expected on Sunday.

    ...Synopsis...
    On Sunday, a deep-layer cyclone is forecast to remain offshore of
    the Pacific Northwest, with multiple midlevel shortwave troughs
    potentially moving inland along the south/east periphery of the
    cyclone. Farther east, a strong mid/upper-level jet is expected to
    shift eastward over the south-central Plains, resulting in
    amplification of a shortwave trough moving across the Canadian
    Prairies and northern Great Plains. A surface low initially located
    over KS is forecast to move northeastward through the period, as a
    trailing cold front advances southward across the Plains.

    Low-level moisture return is expected to commence across south TX
    into the ArkLaTex, though this early-stage moisture appears
    insufficient to support deep convection across the region through
    the end of the period. Farther west, buoyancy may become sufficient
    to support weak convection with sporadic lightning flashes near the
    OR/northern CA coast, as multiple waves of precipitation move
    onshore in association with the offshore mid/upper-level low/trough.
    Weak convection could also accompany the midlevel shortwave trough
    moving from the northern Rockies into the north-central Plains, but
    instability currently appears too weak to support lightning
    potential with this activity.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated thunderstorms are possible late Monday into Monday night
    from the Sabine Valley into parts of the Mid-South.

    ...Synopsis and Discussion...
    A strong shortwave trough will take on a negative tilt as it sweeps
    across the upper MS Valley on Monday, and across the upper Great
    Lakes overnight. Behind this system, a broad fetch of strong flow
    aloft will extend westward across the Plains and to another wave
    moving across the Pacific NW and toward the western Great Basin.

    In association with the leading wave, a surface low will be located
    over Lower MI during the day, with a cold front extending
    southwestward across the OH, Lower MS, and Sabine Valleys at 00Z.
    This front will progress to a southern Appalachians to northwest
    Gulf of Mexico line by 12Z Tuesday.

    Ahead of this front, weak instability will develop as 60s F
    dewpoints spread northeastward across LA, MS, and nosing into AL and
    western TN. Much of the instability will be elevated in nature,
    especially on the northern end of the moist plume. Even farther
    southwest into LA, MLCAPE should only reach about 500 J/kg.

    Forecast soundings are not particularly favorable for even general thunderstorms with a capping inversion noted. Still, deepening lift
    along the front and non-zero instability may result in isolated weak thunderstorms along the front.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated thunderstorms are possible Monday into Monday night from
    Louisiana into parts of the Mid-South, and also near the Oregon and
    northern California coasts.

    ...Synopsis...
    A strong mid/upper-level shortwave trough is forecast to take on a
    negative tilt on Monday, as it moves quickly eastward across parts
    of the Midwest and Ohio Valley. An associated surface low is
    forecast to move from IL toward lower MI through the day and
    evening, as a trailing cold front moves through parts of the Great
    Lakes, Ohio/Tennessee Valleys, and the mid/lower Mississippi Valley.
    Isolated thunderstorms may develop later Monday near the front from
    parts of LA into the Mid-South.

    Farther west, a mid/upper-level trough and embedded midlevel low are
    forecast are forecast to move eastward across parts of the Pacific
    Northwest, northern CA, and the Great Basin. Weak convection with
    isolated lightning flashes will be possible near the OR and northern
    CA coasts, in association with this trough.

    ...Parts of LA into the TN/OH Valleys...
    Low-level moisture return along/ahead of the cold front will result
    in 60s F dewpoints reaching as far north as the Mid-South by Monday
    afternoon, with 50s F dewpoints extending into parts of the Ohio
    Valley. Stronger large-scale ascent associated with the shortwave
    trough will be displaced to the north of the richer low-level
    moisture, and buoyancy is expected to generally remain weak. As a
    result, organized deep convection is currently not anticipated,
    despite the presence of favorable deep-layer shear.

    Generally weak convection with isolated thunderstorm potential will
    be possible (primarily later in the forecast period) in the vicinity
    of the front from parts of LA into the Mid-South. Weak low-topped
    convection (with localized gusty winds) will be possible into the
    Ohio Valley, but increasingly negligible buoyancy is expected to
    limit thunderstorm potential with northward extent.

    Thunderstorm potential appears low on Tuesday.

    Thunderstorm chances will be minimal across the CONUS on Tuesday, as
    a negative-tilt shortwave trough moves into Quebec, and a cold front
    progresses across the remainder of the Southeast.

    Showers may linger along the front from the southern Appalachians to
    the Mid Atlantic Tuesday morning, and a lighting flash or two cannot
    be ruled out over the southern AL to GA portion of the front.
    However, any convection should be short lived.

    Behind this initial system, the flow regime will become zonal into
    Wed morning, though a new trough may start to amplify across the
    Four Corners states. At that time, instability sufficient for
    thunderstorms appears unlikely.

    ...NO THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    The risk for thunderstorms still appears negligible across much of
    the U.S. Tuesday through Tuesday night.

    ...Synopsis...
    While a modest, occluding surface cyclone undergoes some further
    deepening east of Georgian Bay into areas of Quebec to the southeast
    of James Bay, weak secondary cyclogenesis may ensue across southern
    New England into the Nova Scotia vicinity Tuesday through Tuesday
    night. It appears that a trailing cold front will advance east of
    the Appalachians and offshore of the Mid Atlantic coast, before
    stalling across northern Florida and the northern Gulf of Mexico by
    the end of the period. In its wake, models indicate that similar
    strength cyclogenesis may quickly commence to the lee of the
    southern Rockies, downstream of a remnant mid-level short wave
    perturbation forecast to dig inland of the Oregon/northern
    California coast.

    ...Northern Intermountain Region/Great Basin...
    Boundary-layer destabilization beneath the mid-level cold core
    (including -28 to -30 C around 500 mb) of the inland migrating
    perturbation may become maximized across the southeastern Oregon and
    southern Idaho into western Wyoming vicinity by late Tuesday
    afternoon. However, even through peak heating, the extent to which
    a relatively cool/dry boundary layer can become supportive of
    convection capable of producing lightning remains unclear, based on
    forecast thermodynamic profiles. At this point, some lightning
    appears possible, but coverage probably will remain rather sparse.

    ...Atlantic Seaboard...
    Model output continues to suggest that mostly elevated pre-frontal destabilization will become less conducive to convection capable of
    producing lightning by/shortly after 12Z Tuesday, to the east of the
    Blue Ridge. Weak boundary-layer destabilization does appear
    possible during the day in a narrow corridor ahead of the slowing
    surface front, across parts of the Florida Panhandle and adjacent
    southeastern Alabama into southern Georgia. However, based on
    relatively warm lower/mid-levels evident in forecast soundings, and
    weak mid/upper forcing for ascent, probabilities for thunderstorm
    development still appears less than 10 percent.

    Guidance continues to indicate that the most substantive convective
    potential will become focused ahead the eastward advancing front,
    offshore of coastal areas near the Gulf Stream, by early Tuesday
    evening.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE
    ARKLAMISS REGION INTO CENTRAL/NORTHERN AL...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated strong to severe storms are possible from the lower
    Mississippi Valley into parts of Alabama, primarily from late
    Wednesday night into early Thursday morning.

    ...Synopsis...
    A positively tilted mid/upper-level shortwave trough is expected to
    move quickly eastward from the central Rockies/Great Plains toward
    the lower/mid MS and TN Valleys from Monday into Monday night.
    Guidance still varies regarding the timing and amplitude of this
    shortwave, as well as with the strength of a surface low that is
    generally forecast to move eastward across parts of the TN/OH
    Valleys later in the period.

    ...Lower MS Valley into the TN Valley...
    Low-level moisture is expected to stream northeastward from the
    northwest Gulf of Mexico Wednesday afternoon into Wednesday night,
    with upper 60s F dewpoints reaching southern MS, and low/mid 60s F
    dewpoints extending into central/northern MS/AL. A warm layer
    between 850-700 mb will tend to suppress surface-based storm
    initiation through the day, though steep lapse rates above this
    layer will result in MLCAPE increasing above 1000 J/kg (with
    somewhat greater MUCAPE values) from LA into at least southern MS,
    while MLCAPE of near 500 J/kg may reach a larger portion of AL/MS.
    Notably, some guidance (such as the NAM) is much less aggressive
    with the northern extent of favorable instability.

    Low-level and deep-layer flow/shear are expected to become rather
    strong across much of the Southeast Wednesday evening/night,
    resulting in a conditionally favorable kinematic environment for
    organized storms. The primary uncertainty regarding severe potential
    is the coverage of deep convection within an initially capped
    environment. There is some signal for initially elevated development
    by late evening within a warm-advection regime, which may continue
    into the overnight hours as the boundary layer moistens and
    potentially better supports near-surface-based storms. Some
    development will also be possible along the cold front prior to 12Z.

    With strong deep-layer flow/shear and generally favorable midlevel
    lapse rates expected along/ahead of the front, isolated
    strong/damaging gusts and hail will be possible if deep convection
    can be sustained Wednesday night. The tornado threat is more
    uncertain, due to lingering MLCINH and the eventual undercutting
    nature of the front, but a tornado cannot be ruled out if convection
    can become near-surface-based with time.

    With the GFS/GEFS and ECMWF control/ensemble suggesting some
    potential for deep convection within a strongly sheared environment,
    a Marginal Risk has been included for primarily late in the forecast
    period. Some adjustments will likely be needed in subsequent
    outlooks, depending on trends regarding shortwave amplitude and
    frontal timing.

    while MLCAPE of near 500 J/kg may reach a larger portion of AL/MS.
    Notably, some guidance (such as the NAM) is much less aggressive
    with the northern extent of favorable instability.

    Low-level and deep-layer flow/shear are expected to become rather
    strong across much of the Southeast Wednesday evening/night,
    resulting in a conditionally favorable kinematic environment for
    organized storms. The primary uncertainty regarding severe potential
    is the coverage of deep convection within an initially capped
    environment. There is some signal for initially elevated development
    by late evening within a warm-advection regime, which may continue
    into the overnight hours as the boundary layer moistens and
    potentially better supports near-surface-based storms. Some
    development will also be possible along the cold front prior to 12Z.

    With strong deep-layer flow/shear and generally favorable midlevel
    lapse rates expected along/ahead of the front, isolated
    strong/damaging gusts and hail will be possible if deep convection
    can be sustained Wednesday night. The tornado threat is more
    uncertain, due to lingering MLCINH and the eventual undercutting
    nature of the front, but a tornado cannot be ruled out if convection
    can become near-surface-based with time.

    With the GFS/GEFS and ECMWF control/ensemble suggesting some
    potential for deep convection within a strongly sheared environment,
    a Marginal Risk has been included for primarily late in the forecast
    period. Some adjustments will likely be needed in subsequent
    outlooks, depending on trends regarding shortwave amplitude and
    frontal timing.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE
    ARKLAMISS REGION INTO CENTRAL/NORTHERN AL...

    CORRECTED FOR DAY REFERENCE IN SYNOPSIS

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated strong to severe storms are possible from the lower
    Mississippi Valley into parts of Alabama, primarily from late
    Wednesday night into early Thursday morning.

    ...Synopsis...
    A positively tilted mid/upper-level shortwave trough is expected to
    move quickly eastward from the central Rockies/Great Plains toward
    the lower/mid MS and TN Valleys from Wednesday into Wednesday night.
    Guidance still varies regarding the timing and amplitude of this
    shortwave, as well as with the strength of a surface low that is
    generally forecast to move eastward across parts of the TN/OH
    Valleys later in the period.

    ...Lower MS Valley into the TN Valley...
    Low-level moisture is expected to stream northeastward from the
    northwest Gulf of Mexico Wednesday afternoon into Wednesday night,
    with upper 60s F dewpoints reaching southern MS, and low/mid 60s F
    dewpoints extending into central/northern MS/AL. A warm layer
    between 850-700 mb will tend to suppress surface-based storm
    initiation through the day, though steep lapse rates above this
    layer will result in MLCAPE increasing above 1000 J/kg (with
    somewhat greater MUCAPE values) from LA into at least southern MS,
    while MLCAPE of near 500 J/kg may reach a larger portion of AL/MS.
    Notably, some guidance (such as the NAM) is much less aggressive
    with the northern extent of favorable instability.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PORTIONS
    OF THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY AND NORTHERN ALABAMA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated strong to severe storms are possible from the lower
    Mississippi Valley into parts of Alabama, primarily from late
    Wednesday night into early Thursday morning.

    ...Lower MS Valley into northern Alabama...
    Low-level moisture will surge northeastward from the northwest Gulf
    of Mexico Wednesday afternoon into Wednesday night, with upper 60s F
    dewpoints reaching southern MS, and low/mid 60s F dewpoints
    extending into central/northern MS/AL. A warm layer between 850-700
    mb should tend to suppress surface-based storm initiation through
    the day, though steep lapse rates above this layer will result in
    MLCAPE increasing above 1000 J/kg (with somewhat greater MUCAPE
    values) from LA into at least southern MS, while MLCAPE of near 500
    J/kg may reach a larger portion of AL/MS. As noted previously, some
    guidance (such as the NAM) remains much less aggressive with the
    northern extent of favorable instability.

    Low-level warm/moist advection will increase across the Marginal
    Risk area late Wednesday night in advance of an eastward-moving positively-tilted upper-level trough and surface cold front, and
    isolated to scattered thunderstorm development will be possible as
    larger-scale lift contributes to diminishing CINH. Strong
    low/mid-level wind fields will result in a favorable kinematic
    environment for organized thunderstorms, with a conditional risk for
    large hail and damaging gusts with any storm that can develop and
    remained sustained near and in advance of the front. A sustained
    storm in advance of the front may also pose a risk for a tornado
    given the favorable low-level hodograph structure. There may also be
    some risk for isolated elevated/post-frontal storms, with an
    attendant risk for hail.

    Overall, there remains substantial variability in the 12z hi-res and
    ML guidance regarding whether, and where, thunderstorm initiation
    will occur Wednesday night. Given the environmental parameters that
    are expected to be in place (especially during the 08z-12z time
    frame), the current Marginal Risk area and associated severe
    probabilities will be maintained. Have trimmed the General Thunder
    area in line with the most recent 12z calibrated HREF guidance.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PARTS OF THE SOUTHEAST/CAROLINAS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered strong to potentially severe thunderstorms are possible
    Thursday across parts of the Southeast and Carolinas, with the
    greatest threat currently expected from late morning into the
    afternoon. Locally damaging wind, isolated hail, and a tornado or
    two are all possible.

    ...Synopsis...
    A large-scale mid/upper-level trough is forecast to amplify across
    the eastern CONUS on Thanksgiving Day. Within the larger trough, one
    shortwave will take on a negative tilt as it moves quickly
    east-northeastward from the OH/TN Valley region toward the Mid
    Atlantic and New England. In the wake of this leading shortwave
    trough, a northern-stream shortwave will move southeastward from the
    northern Great Plains toward the Ohio Valley by the end of the
    period. A surface cyclone associated with the leading shortwave will
    deepen as it moves from the Mid Atlantic toward southern New England
    and eventually the Canadian Maritimes. A trailing cold front will
    move across parts of the Carolinas/Virginia and the Southeast.

    ...Southeast into the Carolinas...
    Given the inconsistent signal for robust storm development, a
    Marginal Risk was maintained with this outlook. However, greater
    probabilities for all hazards may be needed if confidence increases
    regarding a sufficient coverage of organized storms through the day.

    Strong deep-layer flow/shear (with 60-80 kt flow at 500 mb) will be
    in place atop the relatively moist boundary layer across parts of
    the Southeast/Carolinas, prior to the frontal passage. Prefrontal
    MLCAPE is expected to generally be in the 500-1000 J/kg range, with
    higher values possible where stronger diurnal heating occurs. The
    resulting environment will be conditionally favorable for organized
    convection due to the strong deep-layer shear and sufficient
    instability. However, some weakening and veering of low-level flow
    is expected with time, as the primary cyclone and stronger
    large-scale ascent move quickly northeastward away from the region.
    As a result, uncertainty remains regarding the coverage and
    intensity of storms along/ahead of the front.

    Thunderstorms may develop or be ongoing during the morning, though
    the coverage and intensity of early-day convection remains unclear.
    Gradual intensification of ongoing convection and/or additional
    storm development will be possible with time, both along the front,
    and potentially in the warm sector if sufficient heating can remove
    any lingering MLCINH. The relatively modest large-scale ascent may
    limit storm coverage, but also potentially allow for a discrete or
    clustered supercell mode with the storms that do form. Any sustained
    supercells could pose an all-hazards severe threat, especially from
    GA into the Carolinas, where stronger low-level flow/shear may
    persist through the morning into at least the early afternoon, to
    the south of the surface low track.

    The 00Z HRRR/FV3 depict potential supercell development along/ahead
    of the front, but other 00Z HREF members show only minimal to very
    isolated organized storm development. Other guidance has generally
    trended toward a faster frontal passage (as depicted by the
    ECMWF/UKMET), which could be less favorable for organized storm
    potential due to reduced time for diurnal destabilization.
    Additional trimming of the Marginal Risk from the north may be
    needed if the trend toward a faster frontal passage continues.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER PARTS OF
    THE SOUTHEAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A few strong to potentially severe thunderstorms are possible
    Thursday across parts of the Southeast and Carolinas, with the
    greatest threat currently expected from late morning into the
    afternoon.

    ...Synopsis and Discussion...
    On Thursday, an upper trough will move across the eastern states
    with a strong midlevel speed max sweeping east across the
    Appalachians and Mid Atlantic. A surface low is forecast to move
    quickly across VA/MD/DE and toward southern New England by late
    afternoon.

    South of a low, a cold front will extend across the Carolinas,
    central GA and into far southern AL, MS, and LA by midday, with a
    plume of 60s F dewpoints ahead of it. MLCAPE around 1000 to 1500
    J/kg may develop along southern portions of the front with modest
    heating possible. Forecast shear and thermodynamic profiles appear
    most favorable in these same areas, with conditional risk of wind,
    perhaps localized hail.

    The primary issue regarding storm coverage and severity, especially
    over southern areas, appears to be the rapidly veering low-level
    flow, combined with drying aloft and a departing wave to the north.
    These factors may reduce overall storm coverage. Farther north
    closer to the surface low, instability will be weaker, however,
    low-level shear and hodographs may favor a conditional/brief tornado
    risk prior to frontal passage.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are not expected on Friday.

    ...Synopsis...
    A large mid/upper-level trough will cover most of the central and
    eastern CONUS on Friday, to the south of a mid/upper-level low
    centered near James Bay. A cold front will continue moving southward
    across the Gulf of Mexico and the Florida Peninsula. Dry and stable
    conditions are expected to limit thunderstorm potential across most
    of the CONUS.

    Across the Florida Peninsula, showers and isolated thunderstorms
    will be possible as the front moves southward. While deep-layer
    shear will be rather strong, generally weak ascent and a warm layer
    near 700 mb will tend to limit available buoyancy and updraft intensify/organization, resulting in low organized-severe potential.
    Behind the front, remnant midlevel moisture will support potential
    for elevated convection with isolated/sporadic lightning flashes.

    Across the Great Lakes, very cold temperatures aloft (near -20 C at
    700 mb) within the cyclonic flow regime will result in the
    development of lake-effect snow bands through most of the forecast
    period. Sporadic lightning flashes cannot be ruled out with the
    strongest bands, though this potential would inherently be quite
    isolated.

    A large upper trough will remain over eastern North America on

    Mexico and FL as well, where a band of steeper midlevel lapse rates
    will exist.

    At the surface, high pressure will encompass most of the CONUS,
    resulting in a stable surface air mass.

    The lone area with any thunderstorm/lightning potential will be over
    parts of FL, where a band of midlevel moisture will remain above the
    more stable surface layer. The steep midlevel lapse rates and a band
    of moisture around 700 mb may foster elevated convection/weak
    thunderstorms over central and northern FL. Given such weak
    instability, severe hail appears unlikely.

    while an upper ridge remains centered along the Pacific coast on
    Saturday. A couple of embedded shortwave impulses within the upper
    trough will migrate across the Northeast and Great Lakes vicinity.
    Cold temperatures aloft will support very minor instability (less

    waters. A lightning flash or two may occur within localized lake
    effect snow bands near the eastern shores of Lake Erie and/or Lake

    Cold temperatures aloft and modest low-level westerlies across the

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated thunderstorms will be possible on Monday across south
    Texas. Severe storms are not expected.

    ...Synopsis...
    A dry, continental polar air mass will be in place across the CONUS
    on Monday. The only exception is across far south Texas. Easterly
    flow will strengthen across the Gulf on Sunday night and Monday as a
    strong anticyclone moves into the central CONUS. This will cause mid
    to upper 60s dewpoints to advect inland across far south Texas.
    Meager instability may develop which could result in a few isolated thunderstorms. However, this is more likely offshore where somewhat
    greater instability is likely.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated thunderstorms will be possible on Monday across south
    Texas. Severe storms are not expected.

    ...Synopsis...
    Deep upper troughing will gradually shift eastward across the
    eastern CONUS on Monday, as a embedded shortwave trough progresses
    from Mid MS Valley through the TN Valley and central Appalachians.
    Upper ridging will persist west of the Rockies while a pair of
    modest cyclones impinge on its western periphery along the West
    Coast.

    Surface high pressure is forecast to build over the northern and
    central Plains, accompanied by a reinforcing surge of cold air. The
    overall pattern will maintain a dry, continental air mass across the
    majority of the CONUS, with no thunderstorms anticipated. The only
    exception is along the deep south TX coast, where warm-air advection
    north of a slowly deepening surface low could support isolated deep
    convection and a few lightning flashes.

    Isolated thunderstorms are possible along the Texas Coast and into

    ...Synopsis...
    An upper-level trough will move off the east coast on Tuesday.
    Surface high pressure will progress east in its wake with a strong
    anticyclone moving from the Ozarks to the southern Appalachians
    through the weekend.

    Easterly flow across the Gulf of Mexico on the southern periphery of
    the anticyclone will result in some moisture making it inland across
    far south Texas. A few thunderstorms will be possible along the
    immediate coastal areas during the morning and early afternoon
    hours. As low-level flow becomes southerly and strengthens somewhat,
    moisture advection around 1 km will result in increasing elevated
    instability. A few elevated thunderstorms are possible in this
    warm-air advection regime early Wednesday morning.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated thunderstorms are possible along the Texas Coast. No severe thunderstorms are expected.

    ...Synopsis and Discussion...
    Upper troughing extending from the northern Mid-Atlantic states into
    the north-central Gulf of Mexico early Tuesday is forecast to
    progress eastward off the East Coast throughout the day. In its
    wake, a strong shortwave trough is expected to drop through the
    Canadian Prairies into the northern Plains/Upper Midwest late
    Tuesday/early Wednesday.

    Strong surface ridging associated with a continental polar airmass
    ushered in by lead troughing is also forecast to shift eastward from
    the Mid-South into central Appalachians throughout the day. A
    reinforcing surge of cold air associated with the Canadian Prairies
    shortwave trough will move into the northern/central Plains and
    Upper Midwest late Tuesday night through early Wednesday morning.

    This overall pattern will maintain largely stable conditions across
    the central and eastern CONUS while also supporting easterly flow
    across the Gulf of Mexico, which will result in some modest
    low-level moisture advection into TX Gulf Coast. Additionally, low
    to mid-level flow will increase across this region late
    Tuesday/early Wednesday in response to a deepening surface low and
    large-scale mass response. The resulting warm-air advection could
    result in a few isolated thunderstorms along the TX Coast, beginning
    across south TX early Tuesday before gradually shifting northward
    throughout the period.

    A few thunderstorms are possible from East Texas into the ArkLaMiss

    ...Synopsis...
    A large, upper-level trough will move into southern Ontario and the
    Great Lakes Region on Wednesday with a very strong mid-level jet
    along the western periphery of this trough. As this occurs, a
    compact low-level jet is forecast to develop across east Texas and
    move into Louisiana and far western Mississippi during the evening
    and overnight hours. As low-level southerly flow increases across
    east Texas, low-level moisture will lead to modest elevated
    instability (500 to 1000 J/kg MUCAPE). Scattered thunderstorms are
    possible across this region for much of the period. However,
    instability appears too weak too warrant any substantial severe
    weather threat.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Thunderstorms are possible from East Texas into the ArkLaMiss on
    Wednesday. Severe thunderstorms are not currently expected.

    ...Synopsis...

    A shortwave trough over south-central Canada will dig south and east
    across much of the Great Lakes and Midwest vicinity on Wednesday. At
    the same time, a trough over the Southwest will become increasingly
    cut-off as shortwave ridging develops over the northern Rockies and
    southern Plains. Stronger deep-layer flow will generally remain
    confined to the Great Lakes/Midwest to the Mid-Atlantic/Northeast as
    a strong jet streak enters the base of the deepening upper trough
    across those regions. However, moderately enhanced southern stream
    westerly mid/upper flow will overspread the Southeast. A surface low
    over Ontario and the Great Lakes will shift east toward the
    Northeast, bringing a cold front south and east across much of the
    eastern half of the CONUS by Thursday morning.

    ...Southeast TX into LA...
    Ahead of the synoptic cold front, a weak surface low is forecast to
    develop northeast across southeast TX and the Lower MS Valley. A
    warm front will lift north during the morning and extend across
    portions of the Upper TX Coast and southern LA. This will allow for
    mid to upper 60s F dewpoints to spread north on increasing southerly
    low-level flow. At the same time, a strengthening southwesterly
    low-level jet will develop over the region. This will result in
    vertically veering wind profiles. Enlarged, looping hodographs are
    evident in forecast soundings, with 0-1 km SRH near 150-200 m2/s2 by
    early evening. Effective shear magnitudes also are forecast to top
    out around 30-35 kt. While this typically would support organized
    convection, thermodynamic profiles suggest that surface based storms
    may be mostly confined to very near the coast, with increasing
    inhibition with northward extent. Furthermore, surface heating will
    be limited, and MLCAPE is expected to remain at or below 500 J/kg
    across most of the area. While a strong storm or two is possible
    near the coast, overall severe potential appears limited.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Thunderstorms are possible across parts of south Texas and the
    central Gulf Coast. No severe thunderstorms are expected.

    ...Synopsis...

    A broad upper trough will persist across the eastern CONUS on
    Thursday. Meanwhile, an upper shortwave trough over the Southwest
    will deepen and modestly progress eastward, bringing enhanced
    southwesterly mid/upper flow across the southern Rockies vicinity.

    At the surface, a cold front will be oriented from southern AL
    southwestward to the western Gulf of Mexico/far south TX. Showers
    and isolated thunderstorms are possible in a warm advection regime
    in the vicinity of the front, mainly across southeast LA and near
    the central Gulf coast. As the front shifts east/southeast through
    the day, convection will largely move offshore by afternoon. Modest
    instability and poor low and midlevel lapse rates will preclude
    severe potential.

    A couple of lightning flashes are possible during the last 2-4 hours
    of the forecast period across southern NM and far west TX.
    Increasing large-scale ascent will impinge on the area as the
    Southwest shortwave trough approaches the region early Friday
    morning. Steepening midlevel lapse rates and cooling temperatures
    aloft will support very minor MUCAPE (generally less than 150-200
    J/kg). Midlevel moistening will occur in tandem, and a couple of
    lightning flashes are possible with elevated convection.

    ...Synopsis...
    On Friday, a mid-level trough will slowly drift eastward along the Arizona/Mexico border. Stronger mid-level flow will round the base
    of this trough Friday afternoon and emerge into the southern Plains
    Friday night and early Saturday. Some moisture return will occur
    above the surface front which will result in weak instability across
    Texas and perhaps into southeast New Mexico. As stronger mid-level
    flow emerges across the southern Plains, isolated to scattered
    elevated thunderstorms are possible from southeast New Mexico and
    Far West Texas, to parts of central Texas. However, weak instability
    should keep any severe weather threat limited.

    Scattered thunderstorms are likely across a large portion of Texas
    on Saturday. No severe thunderstorms are expected.

    ...Synopsis...
    A southern-stream upper low is forecast to begin the period over the AZ/NM/Mexico border intersection vicinity before progressing
    northeastward through the southern High Plains throughout the
    period. Enhanced mid-level flow will accompany this low, spreading
    eastward across the southern Plains. Low-level flow across the
    southern Plains will also increase ahead of this system, resulting
    in strengthening warm-air advection throughout the day.

    Surface easterlies are expected across the Gulf of Mexico, but a
    stationary boundary along the TX Coast will prevent inland
    penetration of any notable low-level moisture. Even so, moderate
    mid-level moisture and increasing large-scale lift ahead of the
    approaching upper low will result in a large area of precipitation.
    Cooling mid-level temperatures may help support modest buoyancy,
    with isolated thunderstorms expected within the larger precipitation
    shield. The probability of any severe thunderstorms is very low.

    Scattered thunderstorms are likely across a large portion of Texas

    ...Synopsis...

    The positively tilted upper trough over the southern Rockies and
    northwest Mexico will shift east over the central/southern Plains on
    Saturday. Increasing southwesterly mid/upper flow associated with
    this feature will overspread much of TX toward the Lower MS Valley,
    aiding in northeast transport of midlevel moisture with time.

    At the surface, boundary layer moisture will remain scant as a
    stationary boundary near the TX coast precludes inland transport of
    Gulf moisture. Nevertheless, increasing lift associated with the
    approaching upper trough and cooling midlevel temperatures resulting
    in weak elevated instability, will support isolated thunderstorm
    potential across much of TX toward the Red River vicinity. Severe
    thunderstorms are not expected.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Thunderstorms are possible from southeast Texas into the Lower
    Mississippi Valley and Mid-South on Sunday. The probability for
    severe thunderstorms is very low.

    ...Synopsis and Discussion...
    Upper low expected to be over the TX Panhandle early Sunday is
    forecast to devolve into an open wave as it progresses northeastward
    across OK and the Ozarks into the Mid MS Valley. Enhanced mid-level southwesterly flow will accompany this system, spreading from the
    southern Plains across the Mid/Lower MS Valley, TN Valley, and
    Southeast as the wave moves northeastward. Strengthening low-level
    jet is anticipated ahead of this system as well. This jet will
    likely be located over east TX late Sunday afternoon before evolving
    quickly northeastward and ending the period from central AL into
    eastern KY.

    Progression of this system will displace it north of the more
    favorable low-level moisture, which will be confined to the upper TX
    Coast early Sunday before advecting northeastward into more of the
    Lower MS Valley/Mid-South throughout the day. Warm-air advection
    across this moistening warm sector and modest buoyancy may result in
    elevated thunderstorms embedded within the larger precipitation
    shield. Deep-layer vertical shear will be strong and there is a very
    low probability that a storm or two could become strong enough to
    produce small hail, particularly across northern LA and southern AR.
    However, the limited buoyancy should keep the overall severe
    potential low.

    severe thunderstorms remains very low.

    ...Synopsis...
    A mid-level trough will rapidly eject into the Southern Plains and
    impinge on the TN Valley while preceding a larger upper trough that
    is poised to overspread the central and northern CONUS tomorrow
    (Sunday). The approach of the Southern Plains mid-level trough will
    encourage broad low-level warm-air/moisture advection across
    portions of the Lower MS Valley into the TN Valley regions. Latest
    guidance consensus continues to depict a warm-sector characterized
    by scant buoyancy, with widespread rainfall and embedded elevated
    thunderstorms expected to overspread the Lower MS and TN Valleys
    Sunday into Sunday night. High-resolution guidance consensus hints
    at the possibility of 100-500 J/kg SBCAPE over southern LA by
    afternoon peak heating, amid curved and elongated hodographs. While
    a rotating storm or perhaps brief tornado cannot be completely ruled
    out, the lack of confidence in developing surface-based buoyancy
    precludes severe probabilities this outlook.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Thunderstorms are possible from the Lower Mississippi Valley into
    much of the Southeast States on Monday. The probability for severe thunderstorms is low.

    ...Synopsis and Discussion...
    The upper pattern is forecast to undergo significant amplification
    on Monday, resulting in a deep upper trough that is expected to
    extend across much of the CONUS by Tuesday morning. The initial
    evolution of this upper trough will begin as a shortwave trough
    moves through the Great Basin into the Southwest while another moves
    from the Upper Midwest across the Upper Great Lakes and Ontario.

    A surface low attendant to the Upper Midwest/Upper Great Lakes
    shortwave trough will move eastward just ahead of its parent
    shortwave. As it does, an associated cold front will push
    southeastward through the Mid MS and the Lower OH Valleys, and the
    southern Plains. A secondary low is forecast to develop along the
    front across north TX, before then moving eastward and ending the
    period over northern LA/west-central MS.

    This overall evolution will encourage the development of a broad
    warm sector across the Lower MS Valley and Southeast, with dewpoints
    likely reaching the mid 60s before the front moves through. A broad
    area of precipitation is anticipated within this warm sector
    throughout the day, but buoyancy will be minimized by poor lapse
    rates and relatively warm profiles. Initially strong low-level flow
    will weaken throughout the day before then increasing again Monday
    night ahead of the front. This will lengthen low-level hodographs,
    with low-level shear high enough to support severe potential.
    Localized severe potential may exist near the surface low as it
    moves across the ArkLaMiss vicinity late Monday night. However,
    minimal buoyancy will remain in place, with surface stability
    potentially persisting as well. These factors suggest the overall
    severe threat will remain low, precluding the need for any
    probabilities.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Thunderstorms are possible from the Lower Mississippi Valley into
    much of the Southeast States on Monday. The probability for severe thunderstorms appears low.

    ...Synopsis...
    A mid/upper-level trough covering much of the CONUS is forecast to
    amplify further on Monday, as multiple shortwaves move through the
    large-scale trough. One shortwave trough is forecast to move quickly
    from the OH/TN Valley region toward the Mid Atlantic during the day,
    as a trailing low-amplitude shortwave trough moves from Texas into
    the Southeast. Farther north and west, a strong shortwave trough
    will move across the Great Lakes region, while another shortwave
    will dig southeastward from the Great Basin into the
    Southwest/southern Rockies. At the surface, a weak cyclone is
    forecast to move eastward from north TX toward the ArkLaMiss region,
    as a trailing cold front approaches the TX Gulf Coast vicinity.

    ...Lower MS Valley/Southeast/Mid-South...
    Seasonably rich low-level moisture (with 60s F dewpoints) will
    continue to gradually spread northward across parts of the Southeast
    on Monday, in advance of the approaching cold front and weak surface
    low. Some weak convection will likely be ongoing Monday morning near
    the central Gulf Coast vicinity within a zone of low-level
    warm/moist advection. This convection may persist through the day,
    though some weakening and veering of low-level flow is expected as
    the lead midlevel shortwave trough moves quickly away from the
    region toward the Mid Atlantic. Late in the period, as midlevel
    height falls associated with the amplifying large-scale trough
    overspread the region, convection may redevelop near the Gulf Coast
    vicinity, and also farther north toward the Mid-South.

    Deep-layer flow/shear will be conditionally favorable for organized
    convection through the forecast period, but weak low/midlevel lapse
    rates are expected to limit instability with both early-day
    convection and also with any development later Monday night. The
    weak instability is expected to limit the organized-severe threat,
    but a strong storm or two cannot be ruled out, and probabilities may
    need to be considered if trends support stronger
    heating/destabilization than currently forecast.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PORTIONS
    OF CENTRAL AND SOUTH AL...SOUTHWEST GA...AND THE ADJACENT FL
    PANHANDLE...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe thunderstorms are possible across portions of
    central and south Alabama, southwest Georgia, and the adjacent
    Florida Panhandle on Tuesday.

    ...Synopsis...
    Deep upper troughing is forecast to extend from central CA into the Southwest/northern Mexico Tuesday. This troughing will be anchored
    by a shortwave trough expected to move from the southern
    High Plains eastward across the southern Plains and Lower MS Valley. Progression of this shortwave will foster a more neutral tilt to the
    parent upper troughing while also significantly strengthening the
    mid-level flow through its eastern periphery. A belt of 100-120 kt
    500 mb flow will likely extend from AL into the central Appalachians
    early Wednesday morning.

    A surface low initially near the ArkLaMiss region is expected to
    move quickly northeast toward the upper Ohio Valley, with some
    guidance showing secondary cyclogenesis later in the period along
    the trailing cold front that will move across the Southeast.

    ...Southeast...
    A moderately moist warm sector will precede the front forecast to
    move across the region, with dewpoints increasing into the mid 60s
    by the afternoon across central AL/GA and the FL Panhandle. Modest
    secondary cyclogenesis appears possible along the front as it moves
    through central AL and intersects slightly greater returning
    low-level moisture. Buoyancy will remain modest, mitigated by poor
    lapse rates and relatively warm profiles, but vertical shear will be
    strong (i.e. 0-6 km bulk shear greater than 50 kt) and supportive of organization with any deeper, more persistent updrafts. These deeper
    updrafts appear most probable within the warm sector near the
    developing secondary surface low (i.e. central/southern AL into
    southwest GA and the adjacent FL Panhandle) during the late
    afternoon. Any sustained cells/clusters within this environment
    could pose a threat of isolated damaging gusts and possibly a
    tornado. A gradually narrowing warm sector will likely limit the
    northern and eastern extent of the severe threat, though a strong
    storm or two cannot be ruled out from north AL/GA into
    middle/eastern TN.

    ...GA/north FL in the Carolinas and Outer Banks late Tuesday night
    into early Wednesday morning...
    A strong south-southwesterly low-level jet is expected to develop
    from Georgia through the eastern Carolinas late Tuesday night into
    Wednesday morning, in response to the intensifying shortwave trough
    moving into the Southeast. Warm-air advection associated with this
    jet coupled with strengthening large-scale ascent is expected to
    result in increasingly broad area of precipitation across the
    region. Surface-based storms appears unlikely within this
    environment, but robust wind fields could still support a strong
    gust or two.

    Greater low-level moisture may advect into the NC Outer Banks
    vicinity early Wednesday morning, with low-level and deep-layer
    shear increasing across the region as well. Any surface-based storms
    could have some severe potential. However, guidance differs on how
    far the mid 60s dewpoints penetrate inland, which, given the warm
    mid-level temperatures, currently limits the predictability of
    surface-based storms.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe thunderstorms are possible across portions of
    central and south Alabama, southwest Georgia, and the adjacent
    Florida Panhandle on Tuesday.

    ...Southeast...
    An upper-level trough will amplify and transition from positively
    tilted across the Southwest Tuesday morning to negatively tilted by
    early Wednesday morning across the Mississippi Valley. Persistent
    weak southerly flow will maintain mid 60s dewpoints across the
    Southeast within a broad warm-air advection regime. Extensive
    cloudcover and ongoing convection will likely limit destabilization,
    but sufficient moisture and the cooling temperatures aloft may allow
    for some weak instability to develop. Some CAM guidance such as the
    HRRR suggests greater heating is possible with temperatures in the
    mid 70s and over 1000 J/kg MLCAPE in some pockets. If this greater
    instability solution were to verify, a slightly greater severe
    weather threat may materialize given the favorable shear with
    lengthening hodographs through the day. However, at this time,
    expect minimal instability inland due to the widespread convection
    and cloudcover. A few rotating storms/bowing segments with the
    threat for a few damaging wind gusts and perhaps a tornado will be
    the primary threat.

    ...Outerbanks...
    As the primary trough starts to become negatively tilted around 12Z
    Wednesday, a surface low is expected to become better pronounced and
    start to deepen across the Appalachians. As this occurs, low-level
    flow will strengthen and back which will allow better moisture to
    advect inland across the eastern Carolinas. Sufficient instability
    is possible across the eastern Carolinas for some supercell
    potential. However, at this time CAMS are not clear whether a
    confluence band will form in this region and if it will be inland if
    it does develop. If a confluence band does develop and can move
    inland, supercells will be possible with a threat for damaging wind
    gusts and a tornado or two, given the wind profile and moderate
    instability forecast.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM EASTERN NC
    INTO SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Strong to isolated severe thunderstorms are possible along and ahead
    of a cold front from eastern North Carolina into southern New
    England on Wednesday.

    ...Synopsis...
    A deep upper trough is expected to extend from central Canada
    southward along the length of the MS Valley into the western Gulf
    early Wednesday morning. A shortwave trough embedded within the base
    of this larger troughing is forecast to move quickly northeastward
    from the Lower MS Valley into the Mid-Atlantic. In response, the
    parent upper troughing will shift eastward while also deamplifying.
    Strong mid/upper flow is anticipated throughout the eastern
    periphery of this troughing, with a 100-110 kt 500 mb jet shifting northeastward from the Southeast into the Mid-Atlantic throughout
    the day.

    An associated surface low will deepen as it moves northeastward from
    northern VA through the Hudson Valley into NH/VT. An attendant cold
    front is forecast to sharpens as it moves quickly eastward, moving
    off the East Coast by Wednesday evening.

    ...Eastern North Carolina to southern New England...
    Low to mid 60s dewpoints are expected to advect northward into the
    Carolinas and northern Mid-Atlantic States ahead of the approaching
    cold front, with mid to upper 50s possible farther north into
    southern New England. These dewpoints will support modest buoyancy,
    with the overall buoyancy tempered by poor mid-level lapse rates and
    widespread precipitation. Even so, a strongly forced convective line
    is still expected to develop along the front as it moves quickly
    eastward across the region during the afternoon. Deeper convection
    is anticipated in this line when increasing large-scale ascent
    aligns with the low-level forcing along the front. Guidance differs
    on when and where this occurs, with some guidance suggesting it
    occurs primarily offshore. Even so, there is still enough potential
    for this occur onshore to maintain probabilities for strong gusts.
    Expectation is for this deeper convection to combine with the robust
    kinematic fields to provide a large reservoir of high-momentum air
    capable of mixing down to the surface. Given the strength of the
    forcing, this potential exists as far north across southern New
    England where buoyancy is expected to be very low.

    Additionally, some potential exists for surface-based storms within
    the warm sector ahead of the front, provided that antecedent
    precipitation does not entirely stabilize the low levels. Some
    guidance suggests a pre-frontal band of surface-based storms
    develops with low-level confluence within the warm sector over
    coastal NC and the Outer Banks.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN THE EASTERN NC
    VICINITY...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe thunderstorms are possible across many of the East
    Coast States. The most probable area for a few tornadoes and
    damaging winds is centered on eastern North Carolina during
    Wednesday afternoon.

    ...Synopsis...
    A longwave trough will extend from south-central Canada to the
    northern Gulf Coast on Wednesday morning. A vigorous shortwave
    impulse embedded within the basal portion of the trough will rapidly
    advance into the Mid-Atlantic States by early evening and pivot
    north to the St. Lawrence Valley Wednesday night. This will yield an increasingly negative tilt to the broad trough, with associated
    intensification of deep-layer flow fields and surface cyclogenesis.

    ...Eastern NC vicinity...
    A plume of mid 60s surface dew points are expected to advect north
    across parts of the eastern Carolinas into southeast VA by Wednesday
    afternoon. Boundary-layer destabilization should be tempered by
    preceding weak convection within the warm conveyor and pervasive
    cloudiness limiting insolation. Still, consensus of guidance
    suggests the relatively warmest surface temperatures should occur
    across eastern NC. Amid weak lapse rates, buoyancy should remain
    meager to around 500 J/kg along the coast. Even so, favorable timing
    of the synoptic evolution with respect to the diurnal heating cycle
    should yield a strongly forced convective line along the progressive
    cold front. Some guidance suggests a pre-frontal band of
    surface-based storms might separately develop in low-level
    confluence over coastal NC and the Outer Banks. At least a few
    embedded supercells are plausible, yielding a tornado and wind
    threat. The progressive nature of the front suggests the tornado
    threat may be more sporadic with shorter-lived circulations embedded
    in the line until it shifts offshore.

    ...Eastern Gulf/South Atlantic Coasts...
    Deep convection should be ongoing across parts of the FL Panhandle
    into south GA at 12Z Wednesday. Despite the time of day, the
    northern periphery of rich eastern Gulf moisture in conjunction with
    enhanced low-level hodograph curvature will support a localized
    tornado/wind threat through midday. Some potential may persist into
    the afternoon over parts of the north/central FL Peninsula but
    low-level winds will become more veered with time as the shortwave
    trough rapidly advances away from this region. The northern extent
    of the threat into GA/SC will be predicated on the degree of
    surface-based destabilization, which appears to be a relative min in
    the Southeast.

    ...Northeast...
    Primary thunderstorm activity should be in the form of sporadic
    lightning flashes amid scant elevated buoyancy within the low-level
    warm conveyor. Some CAM guidance does suggest a low-topped
    convective line may develop along the eastward-surging cold front
    during the afternoon/evening. Surface-based instability may remain
    negligible and lightning production appears unlikely. But with
    intensifying wind fields, potential remains for strong surface gusts
    capable of tree damage.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Thunderstorms are not expected on Thursday.

    ...Synopsis...
    In the wake of a strong shortwave trough moving into the Canadian
    Maritimes, a mid/upper cyclone is forecast to progress from the
    Ontario/Quebec border vicinity eastward through Quebec on Thursday.
    Strong mid-level flow throughout the base of this cyclone is
    expected to extend from the northern/central Plains through the
    Northeast. Even with these strong dynamics, extensive surface
    ridging is expected from the northern Plains into much of the
    eastern CONUS, promoting dry and stable conditions. Consequently, no thunderstorms are anticipated.

    Farther west, a low-amplitude shortwave trough is expected to
    progress across the Great Basin into the Four Corners region while
    enhanced mid-level westerly flow associated with it spreads from
    southern CA across the Southwest. Some modified moisture return is
    anticipated across south TX late Thursday night/early Friday
    morning, but this will remain well downstream of the shortwave
    trough. As such, the lack of moisture/buoyancy ahead of this
    shortwave will preclude thunderstorm development.

    Thunderstorm probabilities are negligible on Thursday.

    ...Discussion...
    A quiescent pattern for thunderstorm activity will envelop much of
    the CONUS tomorrow. Two areas of sub-10 percent thunderstorm
    probabilities remain apparent.

    An Arctic air mass will settle into the Upper Great Lakes.
    Downstream, lake-effect snow bands will persist with the most
    organized one expected in the lee of eastern Lake Ontario. A few
    lightning flashes are possible during the period of maximum snow
    rate intensity, seemingly from late afternoon into Thursday night.

    A couple elevated thunderstorms could develop over a portion of the
    Desert Southwest from southeast CA to the Lower CO Valley ahead of
    an approaching shortwave trough. Despite strong forcing for ascent,
    buoyancy appears minimal with MUCAPE likely holding sub-100 J/kg.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are not expected through Friday night.

    ...Synopsis...
    A shortwave trough is forecast to begin the period over the Four
    Corners before continuing eastward across the central Rockies and
    ending the period as a closed cyclone over the central Plains. An
    associated surface low is expected to move quickly northeastward
    just ahead of this shortwave, progressing from the northeast
    NM/southeast CO vicinity into eastern KS. As it does, an attendant
    cold front will push eastward across the southern High Plains and
    western KS.

    Modified moisture return is anticipated within the strong low to
    mid-level flow preceding this shortwave and its attendant cold
    front. Low 60s dewpoints will likely reach north Texas by
    early Saturday morning but the mid 60s dewpoints are expected to
    remain confined to the TX Coastal Plain. A strengthening low-level
    jet and associated warm-air advection over the pre-frontal warm
    sector (from southeast TX into the Lower MO Valley) is forecast to
    result in elevated thunderstorms from Friday evening through
    Saturday morning. Poor lapse rates will limit buoyancy, with the
    expectation that most updrafts will be weak and transient. Strong
    vertical shear (i.e. 0-6 km bulk shear around 50 kt) may support
    small hail within the deepest, most persistent updrafts.

    1111 AM CST Thu Dec 12 2024

    Valid 131200Z - 141200Z

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are not expected through Friday night.

    ...Central States...
    A shortwave trough near the Four Corners will move across the
    southern Rockies into the central Great Plains by early Saturday.
    The attendant lee surface cyclone will be weak as it tracks from the
    Raton Mesa vicinity into eastern KS. Modified moisture return from
    the western Gulf is anticipated within the broad low-level warm
    conveyor ahead of the minor cyclone. Adequate buoyancy in
    conjunction with timing of forcing for ascent attendant to the
    shortwave trough should yield a pronounced increase in elevated
    convection Friday night into early morning Saturday from the Red
    River Valley towards the Lower MO Valley. Steeper mid-level lapse
    rates will be confined to the north side of the mid-level jet in OK
    to eastern KS. Weak mid-level lapse rates (around 6 C/km) will
    curtail elevated buoyancy where low-level moisture progressively
    increases with southern extent. Still, favorable veering of the wind
    profile with height could yield transient, weak mid-level updraft
    rotation across parts of east TX to the southern Ozarks. Small hail
    may occur within the deepest updrafts, with large hail probabilities
    appearing to be sub-5 percent.

    ...Northern CA...
    A pair of shortwave troughs in the northeast Pacific will approach
    the West Coast. The southern one of these should remain offshore of
    the northern CA coast through 12Z Saturday. The downstream low-level
    warm conveyor will yield a swath of rain ahead of a weak cold front.
    Sufficient low-level moistening, along with some mid-level cooling
    with the approaching trough, may support scant buoyancy by 09-12Z.
    Overall thunderstorm probabilities early Saturday morning appear to
    be around 10 percent near a portion of the northern CA coast.

    Valid 141200Z - 151200Z

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are not expected on Saturday.

    ...Central/South-Central States...

    An upper cyclone and attendant trough will lift east/northeast from
    the central/southern Plains toward the Great Lakes on Saturday. Only
    a weak reflection of this upper system is expected at the surface,
    where a low over eastern KS during the morning hours will generally
    weaken as it lifts northeast into the Upper Midwest. Southerly
    low-level flow will transport 60s F surface dewpoints into the TX
    coast and east TX and the Sabine Valley vicinity through evening.
    Isolated thunderstorms will be possible in this low-level warm
    advection regime ahead of the upper trough and weakening surface low
    from east TX/LA into the Lower and Mid-MS Valley. A strong storm or
    two may be possible across southeast TX into LA where deeper
    boundary-layer moisture and modest surface-based destabilization
    will overlap with weak vertical shear. However, large-scale ascent
    will remain weak as large-scale ascent remains displaced to the
    north. Additionally, low and midlevel lapse rates will remain poor.
    Overall severe potential is expected to remain negligible, and
    thunderstorm activity across the region should diminish during the
    evening hours.

    ...Pacific Coast States...

    Persistent onshore flow is forecast through the evening hours as an
    upper trough located offshore the Pacific coast Saturday morning
    moves inland toward the Rockies by Sunday morning. Isolated
    thunderstorms are expected, especially during the 12-18z time frame
    when large-scale ascent will be maximized amid steepening midlevel
    lapse rates. A strong southwesterly low-level jet will overspread
    portions of central CA during the morning to midday time period,
    resulting in some hodograph curvature. However, cool surface
    temperatures and very modest instability (generally less than 200
    J/kg MLCAPE) will likely limit surface-based convection.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are not expected on Saturday.

    ...Central/Southern Plains to the Lower Ohio Valley...
    An upper low will move from the central Plains to the Great Lakes on
    Saturday. A surface low will weaken through the day as this trough
    advances northeast. A sustained low-level jet will advance from the
    Ozarks to the Ohio Valley and provide ample ascent and elevated
    instability for thunderstorm activity through the day. Instability
    should remain too limited for any severe weather threat from this
    elevated convection. Weak surface heating across the ArkLaTex may be
    sufficient for a few surface-based storms. However, instability will
    be weak and ascent will mostly be focused north of this area.
    Therefore, no severe storms are anticipated.

    ...California to the Pacific Northwest...
    A trough approaching the Pacific coast on Saturday will result in
    scattered thunderstorm activity from southwest Washington to central
    California as cooler air aloft steepens lapse rates across the
    region. Overall, weak instability combined with relatively weak
    low-level flow should preclude any severe weather threat. A more
    focused low-level jet will result in stronger low-level flow across
    the central California Coast late Saturday morning into the early
    afternoon. However, during this period, forecast soundings indicate
    minimal to no instability which should preclude any severe weather
    concern.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorm potential is expected to remain limited on
    Sunday.

    ...Synopsis...

    An upper trough will shift east into the Plains Sunday night into
    early Monday. As a result, enhanced deep-layer southwesterly
    mid/upper flow will envelop the central/southern Plains toward the
    Mid/Upper MS Valley. At the surface, a deepening low will track east
    along the international border in the vicinity of the northern
    Plains and Upper Midwest. A trailing cold front is forecast to move
    southeast across much of the northern/central Plains and Upper
    Midwest, becoming positioned from central MO southwestward into
    northwest TX by 12z Monday.

    Southerly low-level flow ahead of the aforementioned front will
    allow upper 50s to mid 60s dewpoints to spread northward across much
    of TX into eastern OK, LA, AR and southern MO. Shortwave upper
    ridging for much of the period prior to 03z will likely preclude
    thunderstorm activity within the warm conveyor. However, stronger
    height falls associated with the ejecting trough will overspread the
    southern Plains (though stronger large-scale ascent will remain
    focused further north). Isolated to scattered thunderstorms are
    likely to develop near the southeastward-advancing cold front in the
    06-12z time frame. Favorable, vertically veering wind profiles
    suggest some thunderstorm organization will be possible. However,
    convection is expected to mostly remain elevated in nature given
    cool surface temperatures overnight, resulting in little
    surface-based instability and poor low-level lapse rates.
    Furthermore, deep-layer flow will remain parallel to the front,
    resulting in convection tracking to the cool side of the boundary.

    Given cool temperatures aloft and midlevel lapse rates approaching 7
    C/km in a moderately sheared environment, some small hail could
    accompany the strongest updrafts across eastern OK into parts of AR
    and southern MO. However, overall severe potential appears low/too
    conditional to include probabilities at this time given stronger
    large-scale ascent focused further north of better low-level
    moisture, and expectation for limited surface-based instability.

    Oklahoma into north-central Arkansas and southern Missouri, along
    and ahead of the southeastward advancing cold front. Instability is
    expected to be mostly weak, particularly farther north where greater
    forcing will be present. Therefore, despite favorable shear across
    the warm sector, storm mode is expected to be messy given the lack
    of stronger buoyancy, weak lapse rates, and the tendency for storms
    to be undercut by the surface front through time. The expectation of
    limited storm organization amid weak instability precludes the need
    for a marginal risk at this time.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorm potential is expected to be low on Monday.

    ...TX/OK/MO to the Lower MS Valley...

    An upper trough over the northern/central Plains and Upper Midwest
    Monday morning will weaken as it shifts east/northeast across the
    Great Lakes. The strongest deep-layer southwesterly flow associated
    with this system will mainly be focused over the Mid/Lower MO and
    Mid-MS Valleys into the Great Lakes. Though, modest vertical shear
    will extend as far south as eastern OK and the Ozarks into the
    ArkLaTex vicinity. At the surface, a cold front is forecast to
    extend from southeast MO into southeast OK and northwest Texas
    Monday morning. This front will track east/southeast through the
    period, becoming positioned from the TN Valley toward the ArkLaTex
    and central TX by Tuesday morning.

    Ahead of the front, upper 50s to mid 60s dewpoints will be
    maintained by south/southwesterly low-level flow from central TX
    toward the MO Bootheel and the Lower MS Valley. Scattered elevated thunderstorms are likely to be ongoing from eastern OK into southern
    MO and parts of AR. Additional convection will develop near the southeast-advancing cold front as far northeast as the Lower OH
    Valley and southeast into central TX and the ArkLaTex/Lower MS
    Valley through the period.

    Stronger large-scale ascent and vertical shear will remain focused
    north, and out of phase with, the area of better low-level moisture
    across the south-central states. A couple of stronger storms may
    produce small hail early in the period from eastern OK toward the MO
    Bootheel. However, low-level inhibition and poor low-level lapse
    rates are expected to limit surface-based instability. Deep-layer
    flow parallel to the surface boundary, limited surface-based
    instability, and weakening shear/ascent with southward extent,
    should limit overall severe potential on Monday.

    ...Synopsis...
    A mid-level trough will amplify as it advances from the central
    Plains to the Great Lakes on Monday. A strong surface low associated
    with this trough will deepen across northern Ontario with a surface
    front extending southward through the Great Lakes and into the
    southern Plains. This front will become more diffuse and eventually
    stall from eastern Texas to central Tennessee as the primary forcing
    moves into the Great Lakes.

    Thunderstorms will likely be ongoing at the beginning of the period
    from northeast Texas across southeast Oklahoma and Arkansas. While
    these storms may pose some severe threat before 12Z, minimal threat
    is expected to continue after 12Z as heights rise across the region
    and instability weakens through the morning. Additional instability
    is forecast to develop farther south across east Texas and Louisiana
    during the afternoon as temperatures warm into the mid 70s with
    dewpoints in the mid 60s. However, forcing is expected to remain
    weak which should keep any storm development isolated. In addition,
    if storms can develop, weak mid-level flow will keep deep-layer
    shear muted and thus limit much severe weather threat during the
    afternoon.

    Thunderstorms are expected from the southern Plains to the Lower
    Ohio and Tennessee Valley vicinities and across Florida on Tuesday. Severe-thunderstorm chances are low at this time.

    ...Eastern OK/ArkLaTex/Ozarks Vicinity...

    An upper trough will deepen as it moves across the Plains to the MS
    Valley vicinity on Tuesday. A 500 mb jet max around 50-70 kt will
    become oriented from eastern OK into the Ohio Valley/lower Great
    Lakes area after 06z, and stronger height falls are not expected to
    overspread the region until the nighttime hours. At the surface, 50s
    to low/mid 60s F dewpoints are expected across south/east TX into
    the Mid-South vicinity. A strong cold front will track southeast
    across KS/OK during the evening, and by 06z be positioned from
    northern AR into southeast OK and north-central TX. This boundary
    will become a focus for increasing isentropic ascent and isolated to
    scattered thunderstorms during the overnight/early Wednesday period.

    Neutral height tendencies will likely suppress convection during the
    day across much of the area. As convection develops along the
    advancing cold front overnight, uncertainty remains regarding any
    surface-based instability overlapping with stronger vertical shear
    (which decreases rapidly with southward extent). Forecast soundings
    vary across forecast guidance, but at least weak elevated
    instability is expected driven by cooling aloft. Stronger elevated
    cores could produce small hail, given forecast lapse rates around
    6.8-7 C/km amid 30+ kt effective shear magnitudes (especially from
    southeast OK into AR). Overall, severe potential appears quite
    conditional for the last 3-6 hours of the forecast period. Will hold
    off on including low-end hail probabilities, though a Marginal
    (level 1 of 5) risk may be needed in later outlooks depending on
    forecast trends.

    ...FL Peninsula...

    Isolated thunderstorms are expected on Tuesday as a moist airmass
    and at least weak instability overspread the region. Onshore,
    easterly low-level flow will provide convergence along an inverted
    surface trough. Given sufficient destabilization, this will support
    development of thunderstorms moving onshore through evening. Weak
    0-6 km bulk shear (less than 20 kt) will preclude organized
    convection, and severe storms are not expected.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Thunderstorms are expected from the southern Plains to the Lower
    Ohio and Tennessee Valley vicinities and across Florida on Tuesday. Severe-thunderstorm chances are low at this time.

    ...Synopsis...
    A mid-level jet streak across the Northwest early on Tuesday will
    start to dig southeast toward the central Plains and sharpen the
    mid-level trough by Tuesday night. As this occurs, a weak surface
    low will develop across eastern Colorado and move into the Lower
    Ohio Valley by the end of the period. A surface front associated
    with this area of low pressure will accelerate southeast,
    particularly after 06Z and end up somewhere from Memphis to Waco by
    12Z Wednesday.

    ...ArkLatex into central Arkansas...
    Despite broad, weak isentropic ascent through the day, only isolated thunderstorm activity is expected from east Texas into the Ozarks
    due to neutral heights aloft. However, thunderstorm activity is
    expected to increase after 06Z as the mid-level trough strengthens
    and approaches the southern Plains/ArkLaTex and a surface front
    becomes better defined and accelerates southeast. Forecast soundings
    show moderate instability (1000-1500 J/kg MUCAPE) and lapse rates
    (~7 C/km) from southern Arkansas to the ArkLaTex. However, the
    stronger flow will remain mostly across northern Arkansas into the
    Ohio Valley. Therefore, shear will be relatively weak where
    thunderstorm activity is most likely along the front from 06Z to
    12Z. This will likely result in loosely organized storms which will
    likely be undercut by the advancing cold front. While isolated hail
    or a wind gust or two cannot be ruled out, severe weather
    probabilities remain low.

    ...Florida...
    Scattered to widespread thunderstorms are expected across much of
    the Florida Peninsula as 1200-1500 J/kg MLCAPE develops during peak
    heating. Shear will be mostly less than 20 knots which should limit
    storm organization. However, moderate instability and scattered to
    widespread storm development could result in some small hail or
    gusty winds. Overall, severe thunderstorms are not expected.

    Showers and elevated thunderstorms will likely be ongoing near the
    surface cold front Wednesday morning. Forecast soundings show poor
    low-level lapse rates and little surface-based instability. However,
    up to 500 J/kg MUCAPE will be present, courtesy of cool midlevel
    temperatures and modest midlevel lapse rates. Deep-layer flow is
    forecast to remain mostly unidirectional and parallel to the front,
    suggesting convective undercutting by the boundary/outflows. While
    some briefly organized structure may persist the first hour or two
    of the forecast period, convection is expected to rapidly decrease
    in intensity with southeast extent across the TN Valley/Gulf Coast
    states. This is largely due to more modest boundary-layer moisture
    and weakening vertical shear across MS/AL.

    ...FL/GA/Carolinas...

    Isentropic ascent ahead of the approaching upper trough/surface
    front will increase across the region through day. However,
    large-scale ascent will remain weak until late, with the vorticity
    maxima trailing well behind the surface front. Nevertheless, showers
    and isolated thunderstorms will be possible within the low-level
    warm-advection regime, especially during the afternoon/early
    evening. Forecast guidance varies in the depiction of the low-level thermodynamics and degree of destabilization. Though some support
    for an organized storm or two is plausible, given around 750-1000
    J/kg MLCAPE and effective shear magnitudes around 20-30 kt. While a
    strong storm could produce gusty winds or even small hail (given
    somewhat elongated/straight hodographs and cool midlevel temps),
    forecast confidence regarding severe potential remains fairly low.
    Will refrain from introducing low-end/Marginal (level 1 of 5) risk probabilities at this time, though an outlook area may be required
    in subsequent outlooks.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
    THE TENNESSEE VALLEY...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated damaging wind gusts and a brief tornado are possible
    through mid-day Wednesday across portions of the Tennessee Valley.

    ...Synopsis...
    A positively tilted upper trough will develop east across the
    eastern U.S. on Wednesday. Moderate mid/upper level southwesterly
    flow ahead of the trough will overspread the OH/TN Valleys into the
    Carolinas and Mid-Atlantic regions. At the surface, a cold front
    will extend from southern OH to southeast AR to central TX at the
    beginning of the period. This front will develop southeast across
    the Southeast and Mid-Atlantic, mostly moving offshore from the Gulf
    and Atlantic coasts by Thursday morning.

    ...Northeast Texas to the Tennessee Valley...
    Thunderstorms will be ongoing along a frontal zone from northeast
    Texas to western Tennessee at the beginning of the forecast period.
    These storms will likely be mostly anafrontal due to the
    southeastward advancing cold front and storm motion parallel to the
    front. In addition, these storms should already be in their
    weakening phase by 12Z as they outrun the better low-level
    instability. The only exception will be across western/middle
    Tennessee between 12 and 18Z where some instability will remain and
    stronger flow could promote more organization/propagation ahead of
    the cold front. A damaging wind gust or a brief tornado cannot be
    ruled out early in the forecast period. Despite the weakening
    instability through the morning, some damaging wind threat could
    persist into parts of eastern Tennessee and far southern Kentucky
    through mid-day as the low-level jet strengthens to over 50 knots
    during the morning hours.

    ...FL/GA/Carolinas...
    Southerly flow ahead of the approaching mid-level trough will
    establish low to mid 60s dewpoints across much of Florida into
    eastern Georgia and the eastern Carolinas by Wednesday afternoon.
    Weak to moderate instability is expected within a broad region of
    weak isentropic ascent across the region. Upper-level forcing will
    lag well behind the front which should keep any thunderstorm
    development isolated. However, if any storms develop, they could
    have some marginal hail/wind threat given moderate instability and
    shear present across the region Wednesday afternoon. Storm coverage
    concerns related to weak forcing are the primary limiting factor to
    severe weather probabilities at this time.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are not expected on Thursday.

    ...Florida...

    A shortwave upper trough within the area of broader eastern CONUS
    troughing will be oriented from the Carolinas to the northeast Gulf
    of Mexico Thursday morning. This system will shift east across FL
    and offshore the Atlantic coast through 00z. At the surface, a cold
    front located over north FL early in the day will develop southward
    across the Peninsula. Low-level flow will be veered/northerly ahead
    of the front, resulting in little low-level convergence.
    Additionally, stronger large-scale ascent will remain well north of
    the Peninsula. While weak destabilization is forecast (500-1000 J/kg
    MLCAPE), mainly over the southern Peninsula, poor lapse rates and
    warm midlevel temperatures will preclude severe thunderstorm
    potential. Most CAMs and calibrated thunder guidance also indicate
    little thunderstorm activity. Will maintain 10 percent general
    thunder probabilities for the southeast FL coast, but even that may
    be generous.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are not expected on Thursday.

    ...Synopsis...
    A broad mid/upper-level trough with multiple embedded shortwaves
    will remain in place across much of the central/eastern CONUS on
    Thursday. Within the large-scale trough, one strong shortwave will
    move eastward off of the New England coast, while another moves
    southeastward from the Great Plains toward the Ohio Valley and
    Southeast. A weaker shortwave trough will move across Florida during
    the morning and early afternoon. Farther west, a low-amplitude
    mid/upper-level shortwave trough will move across parts of WA/OR
    during the day.

    A dearth of low-level moisture and instability should generally
    limit thunderstorm potential across most of the CONUS. Some
    convection may linger early in the period near the NC coast, but
    thunderstorm potential in this area is expected to remain offshore.
    Otherwise, isolated storm development cannot be ruled out across
    parts of south FL.

    ...Parts of Florida...
    In the wake of a weak frontal passage, very light low-level
    northerly flow is expected on Thursday across much of the FL
    Peninsula. Lingering low-level moisture (with dewpoints in the 60s
    F) will support modest diurnal destabilization. However, despite the
    presence of the approaching shortwave trough and increasing
    mid/upper-level flow, there is currently very little signal for deep
    convection across the peninsula on Thursday, likely resulting from
    modest to poor midlevel lapse rates and weak to negligible low-level convergence and ascent. A conditional general thunderstorm area has
    been maintained across parts of south FL, where somewhat stronger heating/destabilization is possible, though confidence in storm
    development remains low.

    Severe thunderstorms are not expected on Saturday.

    ...Discussion...
    The large-scale pattern will be progressive on Saturday, with a
    shortwave trough and related frontal band moving inland across the
    Pacific Northwest and northern California. Steepening mid-level
    lapse rates and weak buoyancy could yield isolated thunderstorms
    mainly for coastal areas of Oregon and northern California during
    the morning, and possibly into the afternoon. Severe thunderstorms
    are not expected given the minimal buoyancy but gusty winds could
    occur with a storm or two along the immediate coast.

    Elsewhere, prevalent surface high pressure east of the Rockies and
    stable conditions will preclude thunderstorms.

    An upper-level ridge centered near the Continental Divide will

    Across the eastern CONUS a trough will persist on Saturday with dry,

    limit any thunderstorm potential across most of the CONUS. The only
    exception will be across the Oregon/northern California coasts where
    cooling mid-level temps over the relatively warmer ocean waters may
    result in some shallow instability and the potential for a few
    thunderstorms. The strong low-level jet (50 to 70 knots from 12Z to
    18Z Saturday along the Oregon/northern CA coast) may result in some
    gusty winds, even where lightning is not present. However, overall,
    limited instability should mitigate any severe weather potential.

    ...Synopsis...
    Broad upper ridging over the central CONUS will begin to break down
    through the day Sunday as a shortwave trough, currently moving into
    the Pacific Northwest, traverses the Rockies. A broad surface high
    building over the eastern CONUS will maintain cool/dry conditions.
    Weak lee troughing over the High Plains will promote gradual
    moisture return along the TX Gulf coast, but moisture quality/depth
    and poor mid-level lapse rates will be insufficient to support deep
    convection. A pronounced upper wave noted over the northern Pacific
    in water-vapor imagery will approach the West Coast through the
    period. Latest forecast guidance suggests sufficient destabilization
    for a few lightning flashes is possible as colder temperatures aloft
    and broad scale ascent overspread the region. The potential for
    severe convection remains low given very limited buoyancy.

    Texas coastal plain into south-central/east Texas during the day.
    Lower 60s F surface dewpoints will become increasingly common inland
    ahead a southeast-moving cold front that will extend from
    north-central Texas southwestward toward the Edwards Plateau Tuesday
    afternoon.

    In proximity to a surface wave and near/north of a warm front,
    scattered convection should be ongoing Tuesday morning across far north/northeast Texas and the ArkLaTex vicinity/southeast Oklahoma.
    Modest diurnal destabilization (up to 750-1000 J/kg MLCAPE) should
    occur ahead of the southeastward-moving effective cold front, mainly
    across south-central to east/southeast Texas including the I-35/I-45
    corridors. As this occurs, a diurnally related intensification of
    storms is expected near the southeast-advancing front, and possibly
    also in the nearby free warm sector during the afternoon. A few of
    these storms could be severe.

    Effective shear will not be overly strong (30-35 kt), including some
    flow weakness continuing to be noted in model soundings around 2-3
    km AGL. Even so, some organized storm modes including weak/transient
    supercells could occur with marginally severe hail and/or a few
    locally severe wind gusts, mainly during the afternoon and evening.

    ...Northern California/Pacific Northwest...
    As a prominent upper-level trough and related frontal band moves
    inland, isolated thunderstorms will be possible across northern
    California coastal areas and interior valley on Tuesday, early in
    the day with the frontal band and with post-frontal cellular
    convection during the day as low/mid-level lapse rates steepen. A
    more limited/isolated thunderstorm potential will also exist across
    other parts of the coastal Pacific Northwest.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS
    SOUTH-CENTRAL/EAST TEXAS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A few locally severe storms could occur across parts of central and
    East Texas on Tuesday.

    ...Synopsis...
    On Tuesday a progressive upper-level pattern will be present with a
    positively tilted mid-level trough advancing off the New England
    Coast, a mid-level trough amplifying across the southern Plains, and
    a stronger trough moving from off the California coast to the
    Southwest during the forecast period. Inland low-level moisture will
    result in some instability, adequate for thunderstorms across
    portions of the southern Plains. A few of these storms may be severe
    across central/east Texas.

    ...Central/East Texas...
    Thunderstorms will likely be ongoing at the beginning of the period
    within the warm air advection zone across eastern Oklahoma. South of
    this activity, isolated convection may be possible within a region
    of broad ascent associated with a 30 to 35 knot low-level jet.
    Instability and shear will likely be too weak for severe
    thunderstorms from this activity. However, by Tuesday
    afternoon/evening, continued moisture advection and some weak
    surface heating should result in greater instability along and south
    of the cold front/composite outflow across northeast Texas. In
    addition to the greater instability, forcing will increase ahead of
    the approaching trough and mid-level flow will strengthen. This will
    likely result in scattered convection amid weak to moderate
    instability and 30 to 35 knots of shear. Some transient supercell
    structures may be possible along and ahead of the cold front as it
    advances southeast through the afternoon and evening. While the
    low-level flow is forecast to be quite weak, particularly across
    southeast Texas where instability will be greatest, forecast
    hodographs do show significant clockwise curvature in the lowest 1
    to 2 km. Therefore, a tornado cannot be ruled out, particularly
    with any stronger/longer-lived supercells which may develop.

    ...Northern California/Pacific Northwest...
    As a prominent upper-level trough and related frontal band moves
    inland, isolated thunderstorms will be possible across northern
    California coastal areas and the adjacent Central Valley on Tuesday
    morning with the frontal band and later in the day with post-frontal
    cellular convection as low/mid-level lapse rates steepen. A more limited/isolated thunderstorm potential will also exist across other
    parts of the coastal Pacific Northwest.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are not expected on Christmas Day (Wednesday).

    ...Synopsis...
    In the southern stream, a lead shortwave trough initially over east
    Texas on Wednesday is expected to steadily weaken toward the Lower
    Mississippi Valley, while a secondary and more prominent shortwave
    trough modestly amplifies as it progresses east-southeastward over
    the southern Rockies toward far west Texas Wednesday night.

    ...Southern Louisiana...
    Some thunderstorms may linger Wednesday morning from near the
    middle/upper Texas coast into Louisiana. It is not entirely clear
    how far north the warm sector will develop, but it is possible that
    modest instability develops across far southern Louisiana during the
    day, although weakening mass field trends would suggest that the
    main warm/moist sector will remain offshore. If the airmass does
    modestly destabilize inland, a few strong storms could occur given
    that moderately strong deep-layer/low-level shear will exist near
    the warm front. Current thinking is that organized severe potential
    will remain limited, but this will be reevaluated into the Day 1
    time frame.

    ...West/northwest Texas...
    Related to the approaching shortwave trough, steadily increasing
    forcing for ascent via DPVA/warm advection will arrive late
    Wednesday night. Steepening mid-level lapse rates and minimal
    buoyancy could potentially support isolated elevated thunderstorm
    development by daybreak (12z) Thursday.

    ...Pacific Northwest/northern California...
    A few near-coastal thunderstorms could occur as a shortwave
    trough/frontal band approaches the coast and mid-level lapse rates
    regionally steepen.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are not expected on Christmas Day (Wednesday).

    ...Synopsis...
    A lead shortwave trough initially along the Middle Texas Gulf Coast
    region will continue to move east on Wednesday. Model trends
    continue to show this feature weakening through the day. Further,
    this trough has also trended slightly southward in placement over
    the past few model cycles. A secondary, stronger shortwave trough
    will move through the Four Corners and reach the southern High
    Plains by Thursday morning.

    ...Southern Louisiana...
    Current observations within the Gulf show low 60s F dewpoints
    offshore. Given the forecast location of the lead shortwave and
    weakening mass fields during the day, these dewpoints appear more
    likely to remain generally offshore, south of a weak warm front.
    While a few thunderstorms appear probable during the afternoon near
    the boundary, very minimal buoyancy (100-200 J/kg of MLCAPE)
    suggests the potential for severe storms will remain low. Marginally
    stronger storms could occur in far southeast Louisiana, where
    buoyancy could be locally greater.

    ...West/Northwest Texas...
    Forcing for ascent will increase towards Thursday morning. Mid-level
    lapse rates will steepen sufficiently to support a few stronger
    elevated convective cores. A few isolated lightning flashes will be
    possible with this activity.

    ...Pacific Northwest/northern California...
    With the approach of another shortwave trough late Wednesday
    night/early Thursday, mid-level height falls/cooling will support
    isolated thunderstorms along the immediate coastline.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS
    CENTRAL/EAST TEXAS AND WESTERN LOUISIANA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are expected on Thursday across central/east
    Texas into western Louisiana and possibly southeast Oklahoma and the
    ArkLaTex region.

    ...Central/East Texas to ArkLaTex/Lower Mississippi Valley...
    A low-amplitude southern-stream shortwave trough is expected to
    transition east-northeastward across Texas toward the Ozarks
    Thursday and Thursday night. In response, modest surface
    cyclogenesis should occur across west into North Texas toward the ArkLaTex/Ozarks, with an increasingly moist airmass becoming
    established across much of east/southeast Texas into Louisiana and
    the ArkLaTex.

    Scattered showers and thunderstorms will likely be ongoing and
    increasing Thursday morning across north Texas into southern
    Oklahoma. These storms and the timing/location thereof will be an
    influential factor for the main corridor of severe-weather potential
    into the afternoon, limiting the northern extent of destabilization
    where clouds/convection persist.

    Thinking remains that a surface-based severe risk should increase by
    Thursday midday/early afternoon initially across
    east-central/possibly North Texas, perhaps generally around I-35,
    but probably more so toward the I-45 corridor.

    Lower/some middle 60s F warm-sector dewpoints are expected across
    south-central to east/southeast Texas into Louisiana, contributing
    to upwards of 1000-1500 J/kg MLCAPE across east/southeast Texas by
    afternoon, with more minimal/uncertain destabilization northward
    into southeast Oklahoma and ArkLaTex, where at least some severe
    risk could still occur. Strong deep-layer/low-level shear,
    highlighted by 45-55 kt effective shear and 200-300 m2/s2 0-1 km
    SRH, will support a mixed mode of northeastward-moving bowing
    segments and semi-discrete/embedded supercells. Isolated large hail
    will initially be possible, with a damaging wind risk increasing
    during the afternoon along with the potential for a few tornadoes,
    potentially including the possibility of a strong tornado (EF2+).

    Convective intensity and overall severe potential will likely tend
    to wane progressively into late evening/overnight, but at least a low-end/isolated severe risk will probably persist into parts of
    Louisiana and possibly as far east as the ArkLaMiss vicinity
    overnight.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS
    CENTRAL/EAST TEXAS...LOUISIANA...AND SOUTHERN ARKANSAS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are expected on Thursday across central/east
    Texas into western Louisiana and possibly southeast Oklahoma and the
    ArkLaTex region.

    ...Synopsis...
    A mid-level low, initially over the Texas Panhandle at the beginning
    of the period Thursday will slowly move east and become negatively
    tilted and more compact as it translates across the southern Plains
    and ends the period in the mid-Mississippi Valley. As this occurs, a
    surface low will strengthen across central Texas and move into
    Arkansas Thursday evening. As this cyclone intensifies,
    strengthening surface winds will draw mid 60s dewpoints northward
    across much of East Texas and Louisiana with low 60s dewpoints
    possibly into southern Arkansas.

    ...Central/East Texas to the Arklatex and much of Louisiana...
    Some showers and a few thunderstorms are possible within the warm
    air advection regime across East Texas and southern Louisiana
    Thursday morning. Relatively weak lapse rates and weak forcing
    should keep the severe weather threat somewhat subdued during the
    morning to early afternoon, but near-surface based parcels and
    clockwise curving hodographs could support some mini-supercells and
    an isolated tornado threat.

    Expect a gradual increase in convective coverage through the day as
    the low-level jet intensifies ahead of the approaching wave and
    greater surface based instability develops across southeast Texas.
    Moderate instability and strong shear will support the potential for
    supercells with an initial threat for large hail and a greater
    tornado threat during the late afternoon and evening as the
    low-level jet intensifies. The HRRR suggests much greater
    instability and low-level shear across the warm sector Thursday
    afternoon than the rest of the hi-res guidance. If this solution
    were to materialize, greater tornado probabilities would likely be
    warranted, but this appears to be more of an outlier solution at
    this time.

    Nonetheless, a favorable supercell environment will exist across
    east Texas with an increasing tornado threat later in the afternoon
    and evening. Any mature supercells which can develop during the
    afternoon amid greater instability and remain discrete into the
    evening as the low-level jet intensifies could pose a threat for a
    strong (EF2+ tornado).

    In addition, expect a squall line to intensify during the evening.
    Instability will be relatively weak farther north, but could remain
    sufficient to convectively transport the 50 to 70 knot low-level jet
    to the surface across parts of southeast Oklahoma, southern
    Arkansas, and northern Louisiana Thursday evening and into the
    overnight hours.

    ...Pacific Northwest to California Coast...
    A cold front will move onto the California Coast at the beginning of
    the period with the potential for some gusty winds. Hodographs will
    be cyclonically curved ahead of the front, but it appears
    surface-based instability will be limited until colder air aloft
    arrives in the wake of the front. Therefore, some thunderstorm
    threat will exist through the day, but no severe weather is
    anticipated.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A few strong to locally severe thunderstorms could occur across the
    Lower Mississippi Valley Friday.

    ...Lower Mississippi Valley...
    Cyclonically curved westerlies will feature multiple mid-level
    disturbances influencing the region on Friday, including one
    shortwave trough that will quickly spread northeastward away from
    the region early Friday, with a more glancing influence by a
    secondary impulse later in the day.

    Linearly organized thunderstorms are expected to be ongoing Friday
    morning, potentially from western/Middle Tennessee
    south-southwestward across eastern/southern Mississippi into
    Louisiana. Some strong to locally severe storms could occur/linger
    early in the day across parts of Mississippi, where a modest
    reservoir of instability may reside coincident with a residually
    strong deep-layer/low-level wind field, even while the main upper
    system quickly shifts away from the region. Some air mass recovery
    is possible during the day on the southern periphery of the early
    day storms across Mississippi and possibly into nearby
    Louisiana/Alabama. Overall instability should remain relatively
    weak, but sufficient moisture/buoyancy in the presence of 35-40 kt
    of effective shear could potentially allow for a few weak/transient
    supercells in the afternoon. A couple of locally severe storms could
    occur.

    Thunderstorms may otherwise increase in a northward-expanding trend
    late Friday night, potentially near the upper Texas coast and more
    so across parts of Louisiana and Mississippi. This will be as the
    low-level baroclinic zone begins to return northward and isentropic
    ascent increases. Some hail cannot be entirely ruled out in the
    presence of 500-1000 J/kg MUCAPE and around 35-40 kt of shear within
    the cloud-bearing layer.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PORTIONS OF
    THE CENTRAL GULF COAST INTO CENTRAL MISSISSIPPI/ALABAMA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A few strong to locally severe thunderstorms could occur across
    parts of the central Gulf Coast into central Mississippi and
    Alabama.

    ...Synopsis...
    A progressive pattern with multiple embedded mid-level shortwave
    troughs will traverse the Southern Plains and Southeast on Friday.
    The first of these shortwave troughs, associated with the DY1 severe
    weather risk, will be located in the Mid-Mississippi Valley on
    Friday morning. A secondary mid-level trough will cross the Mid-Mississippi/Lower-Mississippi valley between 18Z and 00Z on
    Friday. Finally, another mid-level trough will start to sharpen
    across central/northern Texas toward the end of the period.

    ...Central Gulf Coast into central MS/AL...
    A broken line of thunderstorms, perhaps with some marginal wind
    damage threat, will likely be ongoing at the beginning of the period
    across central MS. The mid-level shortwave trough associated with
    this convection will move quickly north and deamplify during the
    morning which will likely result in weakening convection by mid-day.
    A reservoir of instability will remain across the central Gulf Coast
    with perhaps some northward advection into central MS/AL during the
    early afternoon as the next mid-level trough approaches the region.
    The primary forcing/height falls associated with this trough will
    remain mostly north of the warm sector, but a glancing blow could
    result in isolated thunderstorms. Lapse rates will remain weak, but
    sufficient effective shear (35-40 knots) could result in a few
    stronger/more organized storms capable of large hail or some
    damaging wind gusts.

    Removed the marginal risk across central Louisiana for the threat of
    elevated thunderstorms with the northward advancing warm front late
    in the period. It appears the primary forcing associated with the
    mid-level trough and strengthening low-level jet will be after 12Z
    Saturday.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE
    LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY...

    ...SUMMARY...
    An active severe-weather day is expected Saturday into Saturday
    night, with severe storms likely from east Texas across the Lower
    Mississippi Valley into parts of the Tennessee Valley. Large hail,
    damaging winds, and tornadoes are likely, potentially including a
    few strong (EF2+) tornadoes.

    ...East Texas/Lower Mississippi Valley to Tennessee Valley...
    A southern-stream shortwave trough is likely to overspread the
    southern Plains east-northeastward to the Ozarks/Mid-South Saturday
    and Saturday night, with a notable and concerning strengthening of
    winds aloft into late Saturday afternoon and Saturday night. This is highlighted by global guidance depictions of increasingly strong
    (50+ kt) west-southwesterly winds in the lowest 2-3 km AGL.

    Scattered early day convection and residual cloud cover remain
    potential complicating factors as far as forecast details,
    particularly regarding the northern extent of the primary
    surface-based severe risk later Saturday afternoon into Saturday
    night. There are also continues to be some longitudinal uncertainty
    as far as the initial severe risk across East Texas and the ArkLaTex
    vicinity during the day, although Slight Risk-caliber severe
    probabilities have been expanded westward with this update.

    Even with these forecast uncertainties, ample mass response related
    to the approaching/ejection of the mid/upper-level trough, and a
    related steepening of mid-level lapse rates and strengthening
    deep-layer flow fields, should result in a steady uptick of
    potentially severe convection into Saturday night. This should
    initially occur across East Texas toward the ArkLaMiss vicinity,
    where middle 60s F surface dewpoints will become more common to the
    south of a warm front shifting northward across the Mid-South.

    With strengthening deep-layer shear/forcing for ascent through the
    day, it appears that all severe-weather modes and hazards will
    regionally occur, including semi-discrete supercells and linearly
    organized bowing segments. This includes the potential for large
    hail, mostly with initial development during the day, as well as
    damaging winds and tornadoes, some of which could be strong (EF2+)
    as 0-1 km SRH increases to 200-400 m2/s2 into mid/late Saturday
    afternoon and Saturday night.

    At least some damaging wind/tornado threat will probably continue
    through late Saturday night/early Sunday, including parts of
    Alabama/Florida Panhandle, and potentially northward into the
    Cumberland plateau vicinity. This risk will exist even with minimal
    buoyancy, in the presence of a robust deep-layer/low-level shear
    environment highlighted by a 50-65 kt low-level jet.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM PORTIONS
    OF EAST TEXAS...THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI RIVER VALLEY INTO THE
    TENNESSEE VALLEY...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A regional outbreak of severe storms, with large hail, damaging
    winds, and strong tornadoes is possible Saturday into Saturday
    night, from East Texas, across the Lower Mississippi Valley, into
    parts of the Tennessee Valley.

    ...Synopsis...
    Mid-level flow is expected to rapidly amplify over the southern
    CONUS Saturday, as several southern stream perturbations intensify
    as they move near the Gulf Coast. A prominent shortwave trough,
    initial located across the southern OH Valley, will quickly eject
    northward as a second stronger shortwave approaches from the
    southern Plains vicinity. A roughly east-west oriented warm front
    will quickly move inland overnight Friday and into early Saturday in
    response to increased mid-level height falls and a deepening surface
    low near the Red River. This will allow for robust moisture return,
    with upper 60s to low 70s F dewpoints likely across the lower MS
    Valley by daybreak. While clouds and precipitation from inland
    moisture advection may complicate destabilization to some degree,
    sufficient buoyancy is expected to support numerous strong to severe
    storms with all hazards possible from East TX and the lower MS
    valley, into the TN valley from Saturday morning into early Sunday.

    ...East TX, Lower MS Valley...
    As the mid-level flow pattern quickly amplifies Saturday, the
    prominent shortwave trough and a subtle lead wave over the southern
    plains should rapidly strengthen, taking on neutral to slightly
    negative tilts by 00z Sunday. As this occurs, increasingly strong
    diffluent flow aloft will overspread East Texas toward the ArkLaMiss
    vicinity, where middle 60s F surface dewpoints will become more
    common. Steepening low/mid-level lapse rates and diurnal heating
    should allow for moderate destabilization, despite some lingering
    clouds and isolated elevated storms.

    Deeper convection is expected to develop early in the period
    (11-14z) as ascent from the embedded perturbation and main trough
    move over a pre-frontal confluence axis across East TX/Western LA. A
    second round of robust convection may also develop across eastern TX
    later in the afternoon as a Pacific front associated with the
    surface low over North TX impinges on the warm sector from the west.
    A mix of semi-discrete supercells and linearly organized bowing
    segments are expected with sufficient buoyancy/deep-layer shear
    overlap for storm organization. An initial risk for large hail,
    especially where low-level flow is somewhat veered, should
    transition to a risk for damaging winds and tornadoes as 0-1 km SRH
    increases to 150-300 m2/s2 into mid/late Saturday afternoon with a
    35+ kt 850 mb low-level jet.

    Convection should quickly spread northeast into the lower MS Valley,
    peaking in intensity through the afternoon and early evening hours.
    Coincident with an increase in the low-level jet to 45-65 kt and
    intensifying surface pressure falls, low-level hodographs will
    expand with 0-1 km SRH of 300-400 m2/s2 likely. This will support
    the potential for strong tornadoes with any established
    suppercellular elements.

    ...Tennessee Valley and Cumberland Plateau...
    As the upper trough continues to amplify through the day, the warm
    front will gradually lift north into the southern TN valley by early
    afternoon. A broad area of cloud cover and perhaps light stratiform precipitation is expected in the presence of strong isentropic
    ascent along the advancing warm front. This remains the primary
    uncertainty regarding the northern/eastern extent of the
    surface-based severe risk later Saturday afternoon into Saturday
    night. While buoyancy/destabilization may be muted, the intensifying
    upper trough and surface low will favor very strong low and
    mid-level wind fields supportive of storm organization into Saturday
    evening and early Sunday. With very large low-level hodographs (0-1
    km SRH 300-500 m2/s2) weakly buoyant near-surface based parcels will
    still allow for some tornado and or damaging wind risk into the
    overnight hours, especially with any established supercell or bowing
    structures across parts of AL, TN and western GA.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER PORTIONS OF
    THE SOUTHEAST AND MID-ATLANTIC STATES...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe storms are possible across parts of the Southeast,
    Mid-Atlantic, and upper Ohio Valley on Sunday.

    ...Synopsis...
    A pronounced upper-level trough will intensify as it pivots
    northeast across much of the eastern U.S. Sunday. An associated
    surface low will deepen as it moves northeast from western portions
    of KY/TN into the eastern Great Lakes region. A trailing cold front
    will move east across the southeast/mid-Atlantic states, approaching
    the coast during the afternoon/evening.

    ...Southeast/mid-Atlantic States...
    One or more lines of thunderstorms will likely be ongoing at 12z
    Sunday near and in advance of the cold front, aided by large-scale
    ascent with the upper trough and low-level warm/moist advection.
    These early-day storms will have severe potential, primarily in the
    form of strong/damaging gusts. Low-level moisture, with surface dew
    points in the 60s, will advect north throughout the day, reaching as
    far north as the VA/NC border by afternoon. Extensive cloud cover
    will tend to temper heating/destabilization, with generally weak
    instability in advance of the cold front (pockets of MLCAPE between
    500 and 1000 J/kg, locally higher over the northern FL peninsula).

    Thunderstorms should re-intensify or re-develop during the afternoon
    as the stronger large-scale ascent overspreads the moistening warm
    sector, with a linear structure likely the dominant storm mode along
    the cold front as it moves towards the coast by late
    afternoon/evening. Very strong low- and mid-level wind fields will
    aid in downward momentum transport resulting in damaging winds as
    the primary severe risk. Transient QLCS circulations will also pose
    a risk for a tornado or two, especially from portions of eastern GA
    across the central Carolinas, where the best overlap of instability
    and favorable low-level shear will exist. Isolated instances of hail
    will also be possible with the most intense updrafts.

    ...Upper Ohio Valley...
    Beneath the primary mid-level cold core near the center of the
    surface low, differential temperature advection above low-mid 50s F
    dewpoints should steepen low/mid-level lapse rates sufficiently for
    modest diurnal destabilization resulting in a few hundred J/kg of
    MUCAPE. This may be sufficient for a risk of a few damaging wind
    gusts or small hail with low-topped strong storms, given 45-60 kt of
    low-level flow beneath the upper trough.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PORTIONS OF
    THE SOUTHEAST AND CAROLINAS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe storms are possible across parts of the Southeast,
    Mid-Atlantic, and upper Ohio Valley on Sunday.

    ...Southeast and Mid-Atlantic Vicinity...

    A negative-tilt mid/upper trough will progress quickly northeast
    from the MS/TN Valley to the lower Great Lakes/Mid-Atlantic on
    Sunday. A strong 70-90 kt midlevel jet over the TN/OH Valley early
    in the period will weaken somewhat as the system lifts northeast.
    Nevertheless, abundant vertical shear will overspread the region
    through the daytime and evening hours. A mixed convective mode is
    expected, especially with southward extent into SC/GA and northern
    FL with a QLCS and semi-discrete cells possible. With northward
    extent and where stronger large-scale ascent will be focused, a
    narrow band of convection will move across portions of WV/VA/NC.

    Stronger instability will be focused to the south, from SC into
    north FL, where 60s F dewpoints will allow for 500-1200 J/kg MLCAPE.
    Weaker boundary-layer moisture and cooler temperatures with
    northward extent will limit surface-based instability. Nevertheless,
    fast moving linear convection will still pose a risk for sporadic
    strong to severe wind gusts from NC into VA/WV. Where stronger
    instability and potential for semi-discrete cells are forecast from
    SC southward, a greater risk for damaging gusts, a few tornadoes and
    marginally severe hail will exist.

    ...Ohio Valley...

    A synoptically favorable setup for cold-core convection will
    overspread the region during the afternoon as a surface low lifts
    northeast near the IN/OH border. A narrow corridor of mid-50s F
    dewpoints will nose into central OH ahead of the low and attendant
    surface front. Modest steepening of midlevel lapse rates associated
    with the ejecting upper trough will support minor destabilization
    (generally less than 250 J/kg MUCAPE) amid modest vertical shear.
    Thermodynamic profiles indicate low-topped convection is possible,
    though CAMs guidance is very anemic in the depiction of this
    convection given poor thermodynamics. Nevertheless, at least a
    conditional risk, mainly for strong gusts, will exist during the
    early to mid afternoon.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Thunderstorm chances appear low on Monday.

    ...Synopsis...
    A departing upper-level trough will lift northeast early Monday as a
    surface cold front moves offshore over New England. An upstream
    upper-level trough will amplify as it moves into the central Plains, contributing to the development of a surface low near the KS/MO
    border by afternoon. Low-level moisture will begin to return north
    across the lower Mississippi Valley/Ark-La-Miss region, however
    richer moisture will remain confined to near the TX/LA coast. This
    will limit destabilization potential even as ascent/cooling
    mid-level temperatures develop near the surface low. Thus, while an
    isolated lightning strike will be possible in the presence of meager
    MUCAPE (around 100-200 J/kg) across the mid-Mississippi Valley area
    Monday night, overall coverage should be less than 10%.

    Elsewhere across the CONUS, generally dry/stable conditions should
    preclude thunderstorm potential.

    An upper shortwave trough will lift northeast across New England
    toward the Canadian Maritimes on Monday. At the surface, deep low
    pressure over southern Ontario will lift north while an attendant
    cold front pushes offshore the Atlantic coast. In the wake of the
    Northeast U.S. system, another upper shortwave trough will migrate
    from the northern/central Plains to the Mid-MS/Lower OH Valley
    region. A surface low is forecast to move from the KS/NE to IL/IN. A
    prior cold frontal passage into the Gulf of Mexico will result in
    richer boundary-layer moisture remaining confined to the immediate
    coastal area despite increasing southerly low-level flow across the south-central U.S. Meager elevated instability, generally less than
    200 J/kg MUCAPE, will overspread portions of the Lower MO/Mid-MS
    Valley ahead of the surface low and upper trough. While a couple of
    lightning flashes are possible with developing precipitation during
    the evening/overnight, coverage is expected to remain less than 10
    percent, precluding a general thunder delineation.

    Isolated thunderstorms are possible from the Outer Banks into
    southern New England late Tuesday into early Wednesday. Severe
    thunderstorms are not expected.

    ...Synopsis...
    A compact shortwave trough is forecast to move from the OH Valley
    northeastward into southern New England on Tuesday. An attendant
    surface low will take a similar path throughout the day while
    gradually occluding, reaching western NY by late Tuesday night/early
    Wednesday morning. An associated cold front is expected to push from
    the Mid MS/Lower OH Valleys eastward through the remainder of the OH
    Valley, the TN Valley, and Southeast States. By Wednesday evening, a
    surface low generated by secondary cyclogenesis at the triple point
    will likely be over the Delmarva Peninsula vicinity, with the
    associated cold front extending from this low southwestward through
    the central Carolinas, southern GA, and the western FL Peninsula.
    Continued eastward progress will take this front off the East Coast
    and through all but south FL by early Wednesday morning.

    Limited low-level moisture and attendant buoyancy is anticipated
    ahead of this shortwave and its associated cold front, precluding
    thunderstorm development across much of the eastern CONUS. Some
    deeper convective cores are possible along and ahead of the cold
    front across the middle OH Valley Wednesday morning. A few lightning
    flashes are possible, but current expectation is for overall
    coverage to remain less than 10 percent. A greater risk for
    thunderstorms is possible from the NC Outer Banks into southern New
    England from Tuesday evening into Wednesday morning. Here, strong
    warm-air advection within the warm conveyor could result in a few
    elevated storms deep enough to produce lightning.

    An upper low will be situated over northern Ontario with a broad

    low, a broad fetch of moderate to strong high-level flow will extend
    from the western US into the Southeast, with a leading wave ejecting
    in negative-tilt fashion across the Northeast. With time, upper
    ridging will occur along the West Coast.

    At the surface, high pressure will be centered over the central to
    southern Plains, with a deepening low over Maine, in association
    with the upper wave. As a result, northerly winds will exist along
    the Gulf Coast, with offshore flow along the East Coast as well. The
    end result will be stable conditions across the bulk of the CONUS,
    with little if any thunderstorm or lightning potential. While a
    flash or two cannot be ruled out ahead of the New England surface
    low, any weak elevated instability should remain largely offshore.

    Thunderstorms are not expected Thursday.

    ...Synopsis and Discussion...
    A shortwave trough is forecast to rotate through the central/eastern
    CONUS upper troughing on Thursday, progressing cyclonically from the
    central Plains through the Mid MS Valley into the Southeast States
    and southern Appalachians. Another shortwave trough is expected to
    drop southeastward through the Upper Midwest early Friday morning.
    Progression of these waves will help maintain upper troughing east
    of the Rockies through Friday morning.

    Farther west, expansive upper ridging will gradually shift eastward
    throughout the day, ending the period extended from northern Mexico
    into western British Columbia. A strong shortwave trough will
    approach the Pacific Northwest coast, but is expected to remain
    offshore throughout the period.

    The surface pattern is expected to feature ridging centered over the
    TN Valley, resulting in offshore flow across the majority of the
    CONUS. Another surge of cold air is anticipated across the Plains,
    helping to reinforce the cold and dry conditions already in place.
    Westerly surface winds are forecast across the Gulf of Mexico, but
    the development of a weak surface low just off the south TX coast
    should preclude any low-level moisture from advecting inland.
    Consequently, any thunderstorms activity should stay over the
    western Gulf. Dry and stable conditions will prevent thunderstorm
    development elsewhere.

    central Plains through the Mid MS Valley into the Southeast States
    and southern Appalachians. Another shortwave trough is expected to
    drop southeastward through the Upper Midwest early Friday morning.
    Progression of these waves will help maintain upper troughing east
    of the Rockies through Friday morning.

    Farther west, expansive upper ridging will gradually shift eastward
    throughout the day, ending the period extended from northern Mexico
    into western British Columbia. A strong shortwave trough will
    approach the Pacific Northwest coast, but is expected to remain
    offshore throughout the period.

    The surface pattern is expected to feature ridging centered over the
    TN Valley, resulting in offshore flow across the majority of the
    CONUS. Another surge of cold air is anticipated across the Plains,
    helping to reinforce the cold and dry conditions already in place. Easterly/northeasterly surface winds are forecast across the Gulf of
    Mexico, but the development of a weak surface low just off the south
    TX coast should preclude any low-level moisture from advecting
    inland. Consequently, any thunderstorms activity should stay over
    the western Gulf. Dry and stable conditions will prevent
    thunderstorm development elsewhere.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Thunderstorms are not expected Thursday.

    ...Synopsis...
    Moderate to strong northwest flow aloft will exist across the CONUS
    on Thursday, extending from an upper ridge over the West Coast to
    the East Coast. As this western ridge shifts eastward, a tightening
    midlevel thermal gradient will develop over the Plains, with a minor
    trough amplification from the Mid/Lower MS Valley into the
    Southeast.

    At the surface, high pressure will maintain a stable air mass over
    land, with any appreciable instability over the western Gulf of
    Mexico. As the upper wave develops, lift will increase across
    portions of the northern Gulf Coast after 00Z, with precipitation
    developing. It still appears that any weak elevated instability may
    be insufficient for thunderstorms over land, but a isolated flash
    cannot be ruled out near the TX/LA Coasts.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Thunderstorms are not expected on Friday.

    ...Synopsis...
    A pair of phased shortwave troughs are forecast to progress through
    the large-scale troughing expected to be in place across the eastern
    CONUS, moving off the Mid-Atlantic coast by Friday afternoon.
    Mid-level flow will strengthen in the wake of these waves,
    coincident with another shortwave trough dropping from the northern
    Plains into the Mid MS Valley. Expansive surface ridging will cover
    much of the central and eastern CONUS, with the associated dry and
    stable conditions dominating the sensible weather and precluding
    thunderstorm development.

    Father west, ridging will continue gradually shifting eastward,
    ahead of a progressive shortwave trough forecast to move into the
    Pacific Northwest. By early Saturday, the upper ridging is expected
    to extend across the entire High Plains and into Alberta and
    Saskatchewan, with the shortwave trough extending from northwest
    WA/southwest British Columbia through the western Great Basin.

    Frontal band associated with the progressive shortwave will likely
    move onshore early Friday. Some deeper cells are possible within
    this band, but these cells will still be too shallow for lightning
    production. Another period of deeper convection is possible as the
    upper trough and cold mid-level temperatures approach the coast
    Friday afternoon. A few low-topped thunderstorms are possible
    offshore, with a low-probability flash or two possible over
    immediate coastal portions of WA and OR as well.

    ...Synopsis...
    The pattern on Friday will feature an upper trough over the eastern
    CONUS, with a western ridge breaking down late. The shortwave trough responsible for the ridge breakdown will provide rapid cooling aloft
    late in the day from northern CA into western WA and OR, and
    overnight across the Great Basin. Given favorable diurnal
    timing/steepening lapse rates, a few lightning flashes with
    low-topped convection is possible near coastal counties as a cold
    front approaches.

    Elsewhere, high pressure will maintain dry and/or stable conditions
    over land. A few thunderstorms may occur over the northwest Gulf of
    Mexico with a weak low well offshore.

    ...DISCUSSION...
    A mid-level trough will move from the Intermountain West Saturday
    morning to the southern Plains early Sunday morning. Low-level
    moisture advection will take place across the southern and central
    Plains, ahead of the approaching trough. In response, weak
    instability is expected to develop from southern and eastern Kansas
    southward into Oklahoma. Forecast soundings early Sunday morning
    from southern Kansas into northern Oklahoma suggest MUCAPE could
    approach 500 J/kg. The instability combined with strong large-scale
    ascent should be enough for elevated thunderstorm development late
    in the period. No severe threat is expected.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated thunderstorms are possible early Sunday morning across
    parts of the southern and central Plains eastward across the Ozarks.
    No severe weather is expected.

    ...Discussion...
    While a deep upper low will remain over eastern Canada and New
    England Saturday, the main feature aloft associated with the primary
    convective potential will be a short-wave trough initially over the
    Great Basin vicinity. This feature is forecast to strengthen with
    time as it shifts east-southeastward, emerging into the
    central/southern Plains and evolving into a closed low through
    latter stages of the period.

    As this mid/upper trough deepens, a surface low will shift out of
    the southern Rockies and into the southern Plains through the second
    half of the period. By early Sunday morning, this low should be
    crossing western Oklahoma, with a trailing cold front extending west-southwestward across western Texas and a broadening zone of
    low-level warm advection east of the developing low.

    While the low-level airmass across the southern Plains and eastward
    to the Middle and Lower Mississippi Valley should remain stable
    through the period, above-surface theta-e advection may be
    sufficient to permit development of weak elevated CAPE. Showers are
    forecast to increase with time in this zone of warm advection, and
    lightning potential will increase gradually through the second half
    of the period, as quasigeostropic ascent strengthens ahead of the
    advancing system. Greatest potential for some embedded lightning
    within the broader area of weak convection will extend from eastern Kansas/northeastern Oklahoma eastward across the Ozarks, after
    midnight. No severe weather is expected.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF LOUISIANA...MISSISSIPPI AND ARKANSAS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms will be possible Sunday afternoon and evening
    from the Sabine River Valley into the lower to mid Mississippi
    Valley and central Gulf Coast states. Severe wind gusts, tornadoes
    and hail will be the primary threats.

    ...Sabine River Valley/Lower to Mid Mississippi Valleys...
    A mid-level trough will move eastward through the southern Plains on
    Sunday, as an associated jet streak translates eastward into the
    Ozarks. At the surface, a low will move across the Ozarks as a cold
    front advances eastward into the lower Mississippi Valley. A moist
    airmass will be located ahead of the front, with moisture advection
    taking place throughout the day. As surface temperatures warm,
    scattered thunderstorms are expected to develop late Sunday morning,
    with storm coverage increasing rapidly by early afternoon. The
    development of a linear MCS is expected as low-level convergence
    couples with strong large-scale ascent along and ahead of the front.


    A severe threat is expected to develop across a broad area Sunday
    afternoon. During the afternoon, NAM forecast soundings from
    southern Arkansas into northern Louisiana and central Mississippi
    increase MLCAPE to around 500 J/kg with 0-6 km shear reaching the 50
    to 60 knot range. Stronger deep-layer shear will be likely as the
    mid-level jet passes through the region during the late afternoon.
    This will be favorable for severe storms, associated with the
    development of a linear MCS. The wind-damage threat will be
    maximized along the leading edge of the line, especially with bowing
    line segments. In addition, 0-3 km storm-relative helicity is
    forecast to peak in the 400 to 500 m2/s2 range ahead of the line,
    suggesting a tornado threat will be likely with any rotating
    elements within the line. If more discrete cells can develop ahead
    of the line, then supercellular tornadoes would also be possible. At
    this time, it appears that the wind-damage threat associated with
    the line will be great enough to warrant upgrading to Enhanced
    across parts of Louisiana, Arkansas and Mississippi.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS
    NORTHEASTERN LOUISIANA...FAR SOUTHEASTERN ARKANSAS...AND INTO
    WESTERN MISSISSIPPI...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Strong/severe thunderstorms are expected Sunday afternoon and
    evening from the Sabine River Valley into the lower to mid
    Mississippi Valley and central Gulf Coast states. Severe wind gusts,
    tornadoes and hail will be the primary threats.

    ...Synopsis...
    A mid-level closed low -- initially over the western Kansas vicinity
    -- is progged to advance steadily eastward Sunday, reaching the
    Mid-Mississippi Valley area by early Monday. Strong/cyclonic flow
    aloft surrounding this system will shift into/across the Middle and
    Lower Mississippi/Lower Ohio/Tennessee Valleys.

    At the surface, a gradually strengthening surface low will shift
    from the central/eastern Oklahoma vicinity Sunday morning, to the
    Memphis vicinity during the early evening, and eastward into eastern
    Tennessee overnight. Ahead of the low, a warm front will shift
    northward into the Tennessee Valley with time, while a cold front
    sweeps eastward out of eastern Texas through the afternoon, into the
    Delta region through early evening, and across the central Gulf
    Coast states through the end of the period.

    ...East Texas eastward to Mississippi...
    As a surface low shifts eastward out of Oklahoma and into Arkansas
    during the day, southerly low-level warm-sector flow -- and
    associated warm/moist advection -- will contribute to gradual/weak destabilization ahead of the advancing cold front. By early
    afternoon, thunderstorms are forecast to develop near -- and perhaps
    just ahead of -- the cold front, from central Arkansas
    south-southwestward into southeastern Texas, as the airmass modestly destabilizes.

    Very strong shear (flow veering and strengthening with height) will
    support storm organization, with the strongest storms likely
    acquiring rotation -- both within the organizing band of storms, as
    well as with any cellular, warm-advection-driven convection evolving
    ahead of the front. Damaging wind gusts are expected, along with a
    few tornadoes, with risk likely maximized from northern and central
    Louisiana eastward across the Delta region to western Mississippi
    from mid afternoon through mid evening.

    The convection will continue into the overnight hours, as the cold
    front shifts across central Gulf Coast states.
    Diminishing instability suggests a gradual decline in overall severe
    potential overnight. Still, locally damaging gusts and a tornado or
    two will likely remain possible well into the overnight hours.

    ...Southeast...
    A mid-level trough will move eastward across the Tennessee Valley
    and central Gulf Coast states on Monday, as a cold front advances
    eastward into the southern Atlantic Coastal states. Thunderstorms
    may be ongoing along and near the front at the start of the period
    from the Florida Panhandle into south-central Georgia. This line of
    convection is forecast to move eastward across the remainder of
    Georgia by early afternoon. The southern end of the line is forecast
    to move across northern Florida during the morning and afternoon.
    Although large-scale ascent and low-level convergence should be
    relatively weak, the line may re-organize somewhat as surface
    heating takes place. Forecast soundings by 21Z on Monday across
    northern Florida have MUCAPE near 500 J/kg and 0-6 km shear in the
    60 to 65 knot range. This could be enough for marginally severe
    gusts, with the stronger components of the line.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Thunderstorms -- a couple of which may be strong to potentially
    severe -- will be possible across parts of the Southeast on Monday.

    ...Synopsis...
    A weakening mid-level short-wave trough is forecast to advance
    quickly eastward across the central and southern Appalachians
    Monday, and then off the Mid-Atlantic Coast Monday night. South of
    this trough, fast westerly flow will prevail across the Gulf Coast
    region.

    An attendant surface low will depart the southern Appalachians and
    cross the Carolinas through the day, moving offshore by early
    evening. A trailing cold front will advance across Georgia and the
    Carolinas through the afternoon, and then southward across the
    Florida Peninsula overnight.

    ...Northern and western Florida into southern Georgia...
    Frontal convection -- including a couple of embedded thunderstorms
    -- will be ongoing from the western Carolinas southwestward to the
    Florida Panhandle and adjacent northern Gulf of Mexico at the start
    of the period, with steady eastward progression to occur through the
    day. The strongest forcing for ascent/mass response will exist from
    the Carolinas northward, where a lack of surface-based instability
    is anticipated. Farther south, meager surface-based instability
    (aided by the presence of low 60s dewpoints ahead of the front) and
    weak convergence along the front suggests generally sub-severe
    convection. However, with a wind field in place that would
    otherwise support organized storms, low-probability potential for a
    few briefly more-organized storms remains evident. As such, will
    maintain low-probability/MRGL risk area for the first half of the
    period.

    Wednesday night. Near this jet, lift may become strong enough for
    isolated thunderstorm development across parts of west and central
    Texas. Instability is expected to be minimal, and no severe threat
    is expected.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Very isolated thunderstorms will be possible Wednesday night across
    parts of west Texas.

    ...West TX...
    A closed mid/upper low will drift southeast across the Gulf of CA
    vicinity. Downstream of this wave, warm-moist advection at 700 mb
    should eventually yield scant buoyancy with mixed-phase states in
    elevated parcels amid steep mid-level lapse rates. Isolated
    convection should develop overnight Wednesday into early Thursday,
    most of which should occur atop sub-freezing wet-bulb temperatures
    near the surface. Some of this elevated convection may yield very
    isolated thunder coverage near 10 percent.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated thunderstorms are possible on Thursday from parts of
    central Texas southeastward across the Texas Coastal Plain, and
    eastward into far southwest Louisiana. No severe threat is expected.

    ...DISCUSSION...
    A mid-level trough over the southern and central Rockies will move
    into the central High Plains on Thursday, as southwest mid-level
    flow remains over the southern Plains. At low-levels, a cold airmass
    will be in place throughout the southern Plains. Over the top of
    this airmass, warm advection will likely strengthen as the system to
    the west approaches. An associated low-level jet is forecast to
    consolidate over the Texas Coastal Plain during the day. Lift and
    moisture associated with this feature could be sufficient for
    isolated thunderstorm development. Forecast soundings on Thursday
    from the Texas Hill Country to the western Gulf Coast have
    instability primarily above 800 mb, with MUCAPE up to around 100
    J/kg. This could be enough for a few elevated storms, but no severe
    threat is expected.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are not forecast through Thursday night.

    ...TX/LA...
    A northern-stream shortwave impulse should phase with an initially
    closed mid/upper low in the Gulf of CA vicinity, yielding a longwave
    trough from south-central Canada to northwest Mexico by Thursday
    night. Downstream low-level warm-moist advection will foster
    increasingly widespread precipitation across the South-Central
    States on Thursday as a surface cyclone becomes established off the
    western Gulf Coast. Despite ample precipitation coverage, overall
    thunder potential appears low.

    Very isolated, elevated thunder will be possible over a broad
    portion of central to east TX, mainly during the morning and
    afternoon. Elevated buoyancy should be scant at most, and
    mid/upper-level temperatures will gradually warm, weakening lapse
    rates later in the period. Primary convective potential will be
    focused over the northwest Gulf where 12Z HREF members are
    consistent with an offshore QLCS forming Thursday evening and
    broadening Thursday night. The northern extent of this may skim
    parts of coastal LA as the surface cyclone approaches overnight.
    Forecast soundings suggest this convection should remain shallow
    over land, with minimal chance for charge separation despite the
    potential intrusion of low 60s surface dew points. But given fast
    low to mid-level wind fields, strong surface gusts might accompany
    the convective line.

    Isolated thunderstorms may develop on Friday across parts of the

    ...DISCUSSION...
    At mid-levels, a trough will move across the southern Plains on
    Friday as west-southwesterly flow remains in place across the
    Southeast. At the surface, a low and associated cold front will move
    eastward along the central Gulf Coast. Ahead of the front, surface
    dewpoints are expected to be in the 50s F inland, and in the 60s F
    southward across the northern Gulf of Mexico. Surface heating within
    this moist airmass overland will remain very limited, keeping
    instability at a minimum. For this reason, no severe threat is
    expected on Friday.

    ...Southeast LA to the FL Panhandle...
    A shallow/thin band of enhanced showers is expected to be ongoing at
    12Z Friday across the southeast LA vicinity. The northeast extent of
    scant buoyancy, MUCAPE near 100 J/kg, should spread across the mouth
    of the MS River into a portion of the north-central Gulf in
    conjunction with a weak surface cyclone tracking east along the
    coast. With an elongated, positive-tilt longwave trough displaced to
    the north/west, mid-level lapse rates will remain weak and
    upper-level temperatures will be relatively warm. Thus, potential
    for charge separation appears nearly negligible. Still, with a plume
    of low to mid 60s surface dew points impinging on the coast and
    offshore waters, mixing of fast low-level flow may yield strong
    gusts with the shallow convective line. This line should eventually
    decay in the northeast Gulf vicinity by evening.

    A shortwave embedded in the larger-scale upper trough over the

    saturated vertical profile will support meager elevated instability,
    supporting a few thunderstorms approaching the southeast LA coast
    early Monday morning.

    Weak thunderstorm activity is possible near southeastern Louisiana
    coastal areas Sunday night. Otherwise, the risk for thunderstorms
    will remain negligible across much of the the nation through this
    period.

    ...Discussion...
    Downstream of amplifying mid/upper ridging offshore of the U.S.
    Pacific coast, models indicate that a belt of cyclonic flow,
    initially encompassing much of western into central North America,
    will become increasingly split. One embedded short wave
    perturbation, emerging from the Intermountain West today, is
    forecast to accelerate through an increasingly confluent regime
    across the Great Lakes into Northeast, in advance of a mid-level
    closed low digging south-southwest of Hudson Bay into the Minnesota international border vicinity by 12Z Monday. Another one or two
    digging upstream perturbations may contribute to further
    amplification of mid-level troughing across California through the
    Southwest, northern Mexican Plateau and Rio Grande Valley vicinity.

    Downstream of this troughing, it appears that large-scale mid-level
    ridging will build across much of the Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico
    into the Southeast. As this occurs, a lower/mid-tropospheric low,
    currently near or just south of the Baja Peninsula, is forecast to
    become increasingly deformed and weaken while accelerating
    northeastward through an increasingly confluent regime across the
    western Gulf/Gulf coast vicinity through the southern Appalachians
    Sunday through Sunday night.

    Beneath this regime, while a seasonably cold and stable environment
    now established across much of the nation will generally be
    maintained, models indicate that lower/mid-tropospheric warming on
    southerly return flow will develop across the northwestern Gulf of
    Mexico into the Southeast. It appears that this will be accompanied
    by moistening emanating from a modifying Gulf boundary-layer, and
    increasing precipitation within an evolving plume of large-scale
    ascent. Based on forecast soundings, this may include convection
    capable of producing lightning as far north as north central Gulf
    coastal areas by late Sunday evening into Sunday night.

    Moderate to strong deep-layer southwesterly flow will persist across

    low/trough is forecast to move across the northeast Gulf of Mexico,
    with a warm front remaining offshore the central and northeast Gulf
    coast. This will keep deeper boundary-layer moisture offshore.
    However, modest midlevel lapse rates amid a saturated thermodynamic
    profile in the midlevel will support minor elevated instability
    (generally less than 150 J/kg) from the mouth of the MS River
    eastward toward the FL Big Bend vicinity. While most thunderstorm
    activity is expected to remain offshore, a few thunderstorms may
    approach the coast or near-shore waters. Severe thunderstorms are

    The risk for thunderstorms appears negligible across much of the

    ...Discussion...
    Models indicate that a more prominent, blocking mid-level ridge will
    continue to evolve offshore of the U.S. Pacific coast into the
    Pacific Northwest during this period. As this occurs, it still
    appears that a digging downstream short wave perturbation will begin
    to contribute to the evolution of a closed low offshore of the
    southern California/northern Baja coast. Farther downstream, little
    change is forecast to expansive ridging centered over the Caribbean,
    although a weak perturbation may contribute to subtle mid-level
    height falls on its northern periphery as it accelerates across and
    east of the southern Atlantic coast vicinity. As a much more
    vigorous short wave impulse (emerging from the northern
    mid-latitudes) digs southeastward across the Upper Midwest,
    mid-level flow appears likely to become increasingly confluent east
    of the Rockies through the Appalachians.

    Beneath the confluent regime, it appears that expansive cold surface
    ridging will continue to build, with one prominent high developing
    southward across the northeastern Great Plains. Another may slowly
    shift east-southeastward across the southern Great Plains/lower
    Mississippi Valley vicinity, with the leading edge of the cold
    intrusion overspreading much of the northern Gulf of Mexico and
    northern Florida Peninsula Monday through Monday night. Within a
    remnant plume of preceding low-level moisture return off a modifying
    Gulf boundary-layer, it appears that convective development will be
    maintained into Monday, before supporting large-scale forcing for
    ascent weakens and/or shifts eastward off the south Atlantic coast.
    Models continue to suggest that thermodynamic profiles conducive to
    lightning will generally remain confined to the northeastern Gulf of
    Mexico. However, it is possible that some of this activity could
    approach coastal areas near/north of Tampa Bay before weakening.

    ...Synopsis...

    Strong surface high pressure from the Rockies into the southern
    Plains and Southeast will maintain a dry and stable airmass across

    ...NO THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Minimal to no lightning is expected across the U.S. on Wednesday.

    ...Discussion...
    A mid-level short-wave trough moving southeastward across the Plains
    states Wednesday will contribute to amplification of the broader troughing/cyclonic flow over the eastern U.S. through the period.
    As this occurs, surface high pressure representing cold/dry
    continental air will prevail across much of the country through
    Thursday morning.

    Given the cool/dry/stable air dominating the country, thunderstorms
    are largely precluded. An exception will be over coastal South
    Texas, where weak CAPE atop a deep/stable boundary layer will
    support scattered showers, and potentially a few lightning flashes.
    However, with coverage of any lightning still expected to remain
    quite limited, no thunder area will be added at this time.

    Upper shortwave ridging will spread east from the Plains into the

    extending southward through much of the U.S. Plains states.
    Meanwhile, surface high pressure will remain over the Southeast, and
    Gulf moisture will remain suppressed will south of the U.S. Gulf
    coast. A cool, dry and stable airmass over much of the country will
    preclude thunderstorm potential.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated thunderstorms are possible across the Lower Mississippi and
    Tennessee Valleys, and central Gulf Coast region Friday night into
    early Saturday morning.

    ...Synopsis...

    A shortwave upper trough will develop eastward from the southern
    Plains to the Southeast on Friday. As this occurs, an intense
    midlevel jet streak will overspread the Gulf coast states. A weak surface/trough will likely track from OK/TX to the Lower MS Valley,
    with an attendant cold front tracking southeast across the region
    through early Saturday.

    Southerly low-level flow will allow for some modified Gulf moisture
    to return northward from East TX to the central Gulf coast. Low 60s
    F dewpoints are expected to remain confined near the coast, with 50s
    F dewpoints reaching roughly as far north as southern AR into
    central MS/AL during the evening and overnight hours. Forecast
    soundings indicate the boundary-layer will remain capped, limiting
    surface instability. However, steepening midlevel lapse rates will
    support modest elevated instability (MLCAPE less than 500 J/kg).
    Isolated elevated thunderstorm will be possible from near the Sabine
    River into parts of the central Gulf coast states Friday evening
    into early Saturday morning ahead of the advancing cold front. Poor thermodynamics will limit overall severe thunderstorm potential.
    However, strong forcing and an increasing low-level jet ahead of the
    front could be sufficient amid weak elevated instability to support
    a briefly strong storm or two producing gusty winds from southeast
    LA to far southern MS/AL, and the western FL Panhandle vicinity.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated thunderstorms are possible across the Lower Mississippi and
    Tennessee Valleys, and central Gulf Coast region Friday night into
    early Saturday morning.

    ...Synopsis...
    A short-wave trough digging southeastward out of western Canada
    across the north-central U.S. will partially phase with a second
    trough moving out of the Desert Southwest across the southern
    Plains, resulting in evolution of large-scale troughing across the
    CONUS. By Saturday morning, highly amplified cyclonic flow is
    forecast to encompass nearly the entirety of North America.

    At the surface, a deep cyclone associated with the upper troughing,
    initially over western Ontario, is forecast to occlude as it rotates northeastward across the James Bay area. A trailing cold front will
    sweep across the Plains/Upper Great Lakes/Midwest, and should reach
    a position from Lower Michigan southwestward to the Lower
    Mississippi Valley by 18/12Z (Saturday morning).

    ...Lower Mississippi Valley/central Gulf Coast area...
    As a cold front advances southeastward toward, and eventually into,
    the lower Mississippi Valley area, low-level warm advection atop a
    still cool/stable warm-sector boundary layer will lead to
    development of elevated convection, mainly during the second half of
    the period. As convection evolves, and low-level theta-e advection
    supports continued/modest elevated destabilization, a few
    thunderstorms will likely develop.

    While strengthening flow aloft during the period will result in
    shear that would otherwise support organized storms, the combination
    of a boundary layer not conducive for surface-based storms, and weak instability aloft, suggests that severe threat should remain no more
    than minimal at best across this region.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered thunderstorms may occur over parts of the Southeast on
    Saturday. Severe thunderstorm potential is forecast to remain low.

    ...Synopsis and Discussion...
    A southern stream speed max will extend from TX and northern Mexico
    across the central Gulf Coast on Saturday, and will eventually phase
    with a developing full-latitude trough late. A cold front will push
    across the southeastern states during the day, and southwest surface
    winds will bring lower 60 F dewpoints inland as far north as
    southern GA. Meanwhile, mid 60s F may be present along the Gulf
    Coast. Just above the surface, winds around 850 mb will already be
    strong and veered to nearly due westerly, which will tend to bring
    drying aloft.

    That said, the initial warm advection regime ahead of the cold front
    may support scattered thunderstorms from early to midday across
    parts of AL, GA, and northern FL. Despite the increasing low-level
    moisture, the boundary layer will remain relatively cool, with less-than-optimal lapse rates. However, lift along the front as well
    as the strong flow could conditionally support locally strong gusts.
    At this time, uncertainty regarding air mass destabilization
    precludes any low severe probabilities.

    Otherwise, a very large upper trough will continue to develop across
    much of the CONUS, with cyclonic flow aloft extending from coast to
    coast by Sunday morning, providing cool/stable conditions.

    Scattered thunderstorms may occur over parts of the Southeast on

    ...Northern Florida/Florida Panhandle...
    A large upper-level trough will amplify through the period on
    Saturday with eventual phasing of the southern stream and polar jet
    across the Southeast by 12Z Sunday. Low-level flow will be mostly
    weak through the day Saturday which will keep better low-level
    moisture offshore. Saturday night, low-level flow will start to
    strengthen which may bring mid 60s dewpoints inland across the
    Florida Panhandle and northern Florida Peninsula. As the upper-level
    jet phases and consolidates, a surface low will start to deepen
    across the Southeast with a sharpening cold front. Thunderstorm
    activity is expected in the vicinity of this front Saturday night
    into early Sunday. If any storms can remain along or ahead of the
    surface front, a strong to isolated severe storm may be possible.
    However, the orientation of the front would seem to favor mostly
    anafrontal convection. Given the relatively weak instability
    forecast, elevated thunderstorms will likely not pose any severe
    weather threat despite the strongly sheared environment.

    ...SUMMARY...
    A tornado and isolated damaging winds will be possible across
    central Florida through Sunday afternoon.

    ...Central FL...
    Within a longwave upper trough over much of the CONUS, an intense
    mid-level jet streak will move across parts of the Southeast and off
    the Mid-Atlantic coast by 12Z Monday. Primary surface cyclone will
    deepen as it advances off the Carolina Coastal Plain by Sunday
    afternoon. An attendant cold front will trail southwestward and move
    south across the FL Peninsula through the period.

    Relatively rich low-level moisture ahead of the front will yield a
    plume of upper 60s surface dew points, coinciding with temperatures
    warming into the 70s during the day. Buoyancy will remain weak,
    MLCAPE below 1000 J/kg, as mid-level lapse rates remain subdued and
    poorer with southern extent across the peninsula. Nearly
    unidirectional southwesterly wind profiles with pronounced speed
    shear will yield moderate low-level hodograph curvature and
    elongated/straight mid/upper hodographs. This should result in
    potential for a couple supercells during the morning into the
    afternoon, despite the wind profile largely paralleling the surface
    front. With large-scale ascent weakening through the day, convective
    coverage should peak at isolated to scattered around midday before
    waning into late afternoon. Overall setup appears supportive of a low-probability threat for a tornado and locally strong gusts.

    Thunderstorm potential is negligible across the CONUS on Monday
    through Monday night. One exception could be from the Middle TX to
    southwest LA Gulf Coast where weak elevated convection should
    develop early morning Tuesday. This will occur with strengthening
    warm-moist advection centered on 750-700 mb, downstream of a
    positive-tilt mid/upper-level longwave trough. Some CAM/non-CAM 12Z
    forecast soundings, most aggressively from the NAM, depict scant
    elevated buoyancy developing amid a plume of initially steep
    mid-level lapse rates. With thermodynamic profiles suggestive of a
    predominant PTYPE of sleet at the surface, these potentially
    mixed-phase elevated parcels could support a few lightning flashes.
    While thunderstorm probabilities may be nonzero, they appear to be
    less than 10 percent at this time.

    ...NO THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Thunderstorms are not forecast on Tuesday.

    ...Synopsis...
    A large positive-tilt upper trough will stretch from the upper Great
    Lakes into the southern High Plains Tuesday morning, and will
    progress toward the East Coast by 12Z Wednesday. Behind this wave,
    another lobe of vorticity will drop south across the Rockies and
    toward the Plains late.

    At the surface, a strong high pressure ridge will extend from the
    Great Basin all the way to the Mid Atlantic Tuesday morning, with
    this high consolidating across the eastern states and toward the
    lower MS Valley overnight. Another area of high pressure will
    develop southward across the Pacific Northwest and northern Rockies,
    in association with the second upper wave.

    While 60s F dewpoints will remain from the FL Straits toward the
    Bahamas, little destabilization is expected over the mainland.
    Thunderstorms may occur over parts of the central Gulf of Mexico
    along the surging cold front, with little impact to land expected.

    ...NO THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Thunderstorms are not forecast on Tuesday through Tuesday night.

    ...Synopsis...
    Thunder potential will be nil across much of the CONUS during the D2
    period. Deep convection will be relegated to the Gulf, initially
    over the west-central portion before spreading towards the southeast
    part late. The slimmest of elevated buoyancy (MUCAPE below 100 J/kg)
    along the Upper TX to LA Gulf Coast may coincide with mixed-phase
    parcels, supporting weak convection into late morning. A few
    lightning flashes are possible along the immediate coast, but the
    overall thunder probability appears to be less than 10 percent.

    As deep convection progresses east across the Gulf, it is expected
    to wane with approach to southwest FL and the Keys early Wednesday
    morning. This decaying phase should occur in response poor mid-level
    lapse rates downstream of a positive-tilt trough and subsiding
    large-scale ascent.

    Thunderstorms are not expected on Wednesday.

    ...Synopsis...
    A large upper trough will remain over all but the westernmost CONUS
    on Wednesday, with a leading trough exiting the East Coast early in
    the day. At that time, high pressure will firmly be in place over
    the East, with strong north winds over the Gulf of Mexico and
    western Atlantic. A weak surface low may develop along the front
    over the Bahamas, but low-level moisture and instability is forecast
    to remain off the FL Peninsula.

    Behind this system, another upper trough will develop out of the
    Rockies and into the central states, with another strong area of
    high pressure centered over the Intermountain West into Thursday
    morning. The cool and/or stable air mass over land will thus
    maintain little if any chance of thunderstorms through the period.

    A deep mid/upper-level trough will remain in place over most of the

    the Great Plains to the Eastern Seaboard, in the wake of a strong
    cold front. Weak MUCAPE may persist across far south FL and the Keys
    very early in the forecast period, but deep convection appears
    unlikely due to warm temperatures aloft and decreasing large-scale
    ascent with time. Elsewhere, dry and stable conditions will limit
    thunderstorm potential.

    Isolated to scattered thunderstorms will be possible in parts of
    central and east Texas, into northwest Louisiana, Saturday night.

    ...Synopsis...

    Low-amplitude west/southwesterly mid/upper flow is forecast across
    much of the CONUS east of the Rockies on Saturday. Overnight, a
    south/southwest low-level jet will increase across parts of TX
    toward the ArkLaTex vicinity. Southerly low-level flow across the
    western Gulf will transport moisture northward across portions of
    the TX coast and Sabine Valley. Dewpoints near 60 F will remain
    confined to the immediate coastal vicinity with upper 40s to low 50s
    F dewpoints further north across east TX and central/northern LA.
    Increasing ascent in association with the aforementioned low-level
    jet may be sufficient for the development of isolated thunderstorm
    within weak elevated instability late Saturday night into early
    Sunday. Severe thunderstorms are not expected.

    ...DISCUSSION...
    Zonal westerly mid-level flow will be in place across the Southeast

    western Gulf Coast. At the surface, a cold front will advance
    southward into the lower Mississippi Valley and Texas Coastal Plain.
    Ahead of the front, surface dewpoints are forecast to be in the 60s
    F. Due to widespread cloud cover, surface heating ahead of the front
    is expected to be minimal, and instability should remain weak during
    the day. Isolated to scattered thunderstorms appear likely to
    develop near the front on Thursday from the Texas Coastal Plain into
    southern Louisiana, but weak instability should be unfavorable for
    severe storms. This storms are forecast to move eastward into the

    Isolated to scattered thunderstorms will be possible from Sunday
    into Sunday night from the Texas Coastal Plain into the lower
    Mississippi Valley, as well as portions of the California coastline.
    No severe threat is expected.

    ...Synopsis...
    A vertically stacked cyclone will meander along the California
    coastline as a positively tilted mid-level trough traverses the
    eastern U.S., and ridging aloft builds into the southern Plains
    tomorrow (Sunday). Some deepening of the eastern upper trough will
    encourage low-level WAA across portions of eastern TX into the
    Southeast, where an increase and both moisture and lift will support
    scattered thunderstorm development. 7-8 C/km lapse rates
    overspreading portions of eastern TX may support isolated bouts of
    small hail in the stronger updrafts given 40-50 kts of deep-layer
    speed shear.

    Along the CA coastline, adequate surface heating amid the stacked
    cyclone will result in surface temperatures reaching the low to mid
    50s F in spots. Boundary layer mixing will support 7-8 C/km
    low-level lapse rates, with 0-3 km CAPE reaching the 100-150 J/kg
    range. Though convection should be low-topped, updrafts may become
    just deep enough to foster liquid/ice phase mixing and subsequent
    charge separation needed for isolated lightning flashes.
    Furthermore, the more robust updrafts benefiting from locally higher
    0-3 km CAPE beneath the stacked cyclone may have enough vertical
    vorticity to work with such that a brief landspout cannot be
    completely ruled out. However, confidence in this scenario is too
    low to support severe probabilities at this time.

    Isolated thunderstorms will be possible Monday morning in the lower

    Colorado Valley. Severe weather potential remains quite low.

    ...Synopsis...
    A large upper-level trough will remain across much of the East into
    parts of the Midwest tomorrow. A cold front will move into the Gulf
    of Mexico. Farther west, a broad upper low will move through
    southern California and into the Southwest.

    ...Lower Mississippi Valley...
    Showers and isolated thunderstorms are expected to be ongoing early
    Monday morning within a weak elevated buoyancy environment. This
    activity will continue into mid/late morning before low-level
    convergence/warm advection weakens.

    ...Southern California into Lower Colorado Valley...
    Cold temperatures aloft and modest mid-level ascent will promote
    showers and isolated embedded thunderstorms from the southern
    California coast into parts of the lower Colorado Valley. Most of
    this activity will occur during the early to late morning.
    Thereafter, forcing for ascent should weaken and slight mid-level
    warming should reduce what will already be minimal buoyancy to
    negligible levels.

    ...NO THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Thunderstorms are not forecast across the continental U.S. Tuesday
    or Tuesday night.

    ...DISCUSSION...
    At mid-levels, a low is forecast to remain over northern Arizona on
    Tuesday as flow becomes more southwesterly across western parts of
    the southern Plains. In response, low-level moisture advection will
    take place across parts of southern and central Texas from Tuesday
    into Tuesday night. The moist sector will remain largely void of
    precipitation, except toward the end of the period when shower
    development will be possible near the Red River along the northern
    edge of the stronger low-level flow. Instability is expected to be
    insufficient for thunderstorm development. Elsewhere across the
    continental U.S., thunderstorms are not expected Tuesday and Tuesday
    night.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PORTIONS
    OF THE CENTRAL TEXAS VICINITY...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A few strong/possibly severe storms will be possible across parts of
    the southern Plains Wednesday evening/overnight.

    ...Synopsis...
    A closed mid-level low over Arizona early Wednesday will move
    eastward and then northeastward across the Southwest/southern
    Rockies, with strong mid-level southwesterlies spreading into the
    south-central U.S. ahead of this system.

    At the surface, weak pressure falls across the southern Plains in
    response to the approach of the upper system will lead to the
    development of an inverted trough over central Texas through the
    second half of the period. A broad zone of low-level warm advection/quasigeostrophic forcing for ascent will result in mainly
    elevated convective development through the second half of the
    period.

    ...Central Texas...
    Low-level theta-e advection will increase through the day Wednesday
    atop a cool surface-based airmass will result in gradual/weak
    elevated destabilization. As quasigeostrophic ascent likewise
    increases with time, elevated showers -- and eventually, scattered thunderstorms -- are expected, with most of the thunderstorm
    activity to occur after dark.

    While the greatest low-level moisture (limited to low 60s dewpoints)
    will occur over eastern portions of central Texas (the Hill Country
    region), truly surface-based convection appears a low-probability
    occurrence. Overall, expect convection to be elevated above a
    persistently stable surface layer, with any wind risk or brief
    tornado potential limited to eastern portions of the risk area.
    Otherwise, a few storms capable of producing marginal hail are
    expected, but overall risk should remain limited by modest CAPE.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM CENTRAL
    TEXAS TO FAR SOUTH-CENTRAL OKLAHOMA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A few strong/possibly severe storms will be possible across parts of
    the southern Plains Wednesday evening/overnight.

    ...Southern Plains...

    A southwest flow/warm advection regime is forecast across the
    southern Plains on Wednesday, ahead of an upper low/trough migrating
    east across the Four Corners and southern Rockies.
    East/southeasterly low-level flow across the western Gulf and
    southern Plains will transport 60s F dewpoints northward into
    portions of central and north TX. Surface cyclogenesis is not
    expected to be particularly strong, but a Pacific front is forecast
    to sharpen and shift east into central to north TX overnight.

    Midlevel lapse rates are forecast to steepen overnight in
    conjunction with a strengthening southerly low-level jet. This will
    aid in modest destabilization, with MLCAPE values to around 500-750
    J/kg evident in forecast guidance. Favorable vertical shear, with
    effective shear magnitudes greater then 35 kt, and
    straight/elongated hodographs above 2 km suggest organized, elevated thunderstorms are possible. Strong low-level inhibition due to poor
    low-level lapse rates and a cool nocturnal boundary layer will
    preclude surface-based instability/convection. Nevertheless,
    conditions will be favorable for isolated hail with strongest
    thunderstorm cores.

    Some forecast soundings suggest low-level inhibition may be somewhat
    less across eastern portions of the Marginal risk (level 1 of 5)
    area near the very end of the period. While the risk of
    surface-based convection is conditional across this area, if a storm
    can become so, enlarged/curved low-level hodographs and favorable
    low-level shear suggest some risk for a tornado and/or strong wind
    gusts could materialize. Given the conditional/low-end nature of the
    risk during the last 1-3 hours of the forecast period, will maintain
    the Marginal risk (level 1 of 5).

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM PARTS OF
    SOUTHEASTERN TEXAS INTO SOUTHWESTERN MISSISSIPPI...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Strong/isolated severe storms will be possible Thursday from eastern
    Texas eastward across the Lower Mississippi Valley.

    ...Synopsis...
    A closed upper low initially forecast to lie over the southeastern
    Colorado area is expected to move steadily eastward Day 2/Thursday,
    crossing Kansas/Oklahoma and eventually shifting into/across the
    Ozarks through 31/12Z.

    At the surface, a very weak surface low expected over northeastern
    Texas Thursday morning is expected to shift north-northeastward with
    time, with some deepening of the low expected through latter stages
    of the period as it moves into the Illinois/Indiana area.
    Meanwhile, a trailing cold front will sweep across eastern Texas
    early in the period, across the Lower Mississippi Valley area
    through the evening, and should lie from Indiana southward across
    Kentucky and Tennessee, to the mouth of the Mississippi River by the
    end of the period.

    ...East Texas to western Mississippi...
    As the surface cold front shifts eastward through the day, southerly
    low-level winds within the warm sector will advect partially
    modified Gulf air northward into southeastern Texas and Louisiana.
    Weak lapse rates will substantially hinder destabilization, but
    low-level moistening should be sufficient to allow very weak
    surface-based CAPE to develop ahead of the advancing front.

    Elevated showers and storms should be ongoing at the start of the
    period, moving across the eastern half of Texas. As low-level
    moistening allows storms to gradually become surface-based,
    potential for locally damaging winds and a couple of tornadoes will
    increase. Risk should become maximized through the late afternoon
    and early evening hours, expanding into/across Louisiana with time.
    While the meager instability should temper the overall risk,
    favorably strong low-level and deep-layer shear across the region
    will exist, with low-level southerly flow increasing and veering
    substantially with height through the lower half of the troposphere.
    The main storm mode is expected to be rotating storms embedded
    within small-scale linear segments, with convection spreading
    eastward across the Lower Mississippi Valley through the evening
    before weakening overnight.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS SOUTHEAST
    TEXAS INTO SOUTHWEST MISSISSIPPI...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Strong/isolated severe storms will be possible Thursday from eastern
    Texas eastward across the Lower Mississippi Valley.

    ...East TX into the Lower MS Valley...

    Overall limited changes have been made to the
    categorical/probabilistic outlooks lines with the Day 2 update.

    A mid/upper low and attendant positively tilted trough will develop east/northeast from the southern Rockies/Plains toward the MS
    Valley on Friday. An intense 500 mb southwesterly jet streak (near
    100 kt) ahead of this feature, with a broader swath of 50-80 kt
    southwesterly flow in the mid/upper levels, will move across the
    southern Plains and Mid/Lower MS Valley. A 40+ kt southerly
    low-level jet will aid in strong warm advection from east TX into
    the Mid-South/Lower MS Valley. While surface cyclogenesis will be
    modest, the larger mass response will aid in northward transport of
    Gulf moisture across the region, with 60s F dewpoints generally
    remaining near/south of the I-20 corridor. A cold front will track
    east through the period, with a line of convection in advance of
    this feature bringing some potential for strong to severe
    thunderstorms.

    While very favorable vertical wind profiles will be in place across
    the region, characterized by vertically veering/strengthening winds
    resulting in enlarged low-level hodographs becoming
    straight/elongated above 2-3 km, poor thermodynamics will limit a
    larger severe risk. Mid-60s F dewpoints are expected to remain south
    of the I-20 corridor, with the more favorable warm sector becoming
    increasingly pinched off with north and east extent through the
    evening hours. Poor low-level lapse rates and only modest surface
    heating will likely preclude much in the way of surface-based
    instability.

    Nevertheless, elevated instability will be sufficient for organized
    line segments/clusters within the favorably sheared environment.
    This should support a risk for isolated strong to severe wind gusts
    and perhaps some hail. This risk will be greatest over parts of
    southeast TX into LA and far southwest MS from around 21-02z as
    ongoing morning convection moves into a somewhat more moist/unstable
    airmass. While non-zero, the tornado risk appear limited by the lack
    of surface-based instability and poor low-level lapse rates.
    However, given a favorable shear environment, if boundary-layer
    instability is greater than forecast guidance/soundings indicate, a
    tornado or two may occur.

    With loss of daytime heating, strong ascent becoming displaced to
    the north after dark, and decreasing instability with eastward
    extent, the severe risk should fairly quickly diminish across MS
    during the late evening.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PORTIONS
    OF THE CENTRAL AND EASTERN GULF COAST REGION...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A couple of strong/potentially severe storms may occur over parts of
    the central/eastern Gulf Coast region Friday.

    ...Synopsis...
    An upper low moving across the central U.S. early Friday is progged
    to devolve into an open wave, which will move quickly across the
    eastern half of the U.S. with time. By the end of the period, this
    feature will likely have reached the Atlantic Coast.

    At the surface, a weak low will move across the Midwest and central Appalachians early in the period, and then should redevelop off the
    New England coast after sunset. A trailing cold front will cross
    the Southeast and Atlantic Coast states with time, moving offshore
    overnight and trailing only across the Florida Peninsula through the
    end of the period.

    ...Mouth of the Mississippi eastward to southwestern Georgia...
    Showers -- and possibly a few thunderstorms -- should be ongoing
    Friday morning, largely elevated above a weakly stable boundary
    layer. Weak heating through the morning and into early afternoon
    may support meager, nearly surface-based CAPE to gradually evolve.
    Given favorable background shear across the warm sector, a few
    stronger updrafts cannot be ruled out. Though the lack of more
    substantial instability should substantially hinder potential for
    severe weather, a few stronger gusts and/or a brief tornado cannot
    be ruled out. The risk should peak from late morning through late
    afternoon, diminishing into the evening as the front -- and
    associated convective band -- advance eastward across Georgia and
    the Florida Panhandle.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM FAR
    SOUTHEAST LOUISIANA INTO FAR SOUTHWEST GEORGIA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A couple of strong/potentially severe storms may occur over parts of
    the central/eastern Gulf Coast region Friday.

    ...Central/eastern Gulf Coast...

    An upper low/trough from the Mid-MS Valley to the southern Plains
    will shift east to the Atlantic coast on Friday. Strong deep-layer southwesterly flow will overspread the Southeast ahead of the
    trough. Meanwhile, a cold front will develop east/southeast across
    the region through early Saturday. A line of showers and isolated
    thunderstorms will likely be ongoing Friday morning from the TN
    Valley toward far southeast LA. While vertical shear will be quite
    favorable for organized convection, poor lapse rates and a
    relatively cool/capped boundary-layer will limit destabilization.
    Where deeper boundary-layer moisture is evident closer to the coast,
    some potential for an isolated strong storm or two may evolve during
    the late morning into the afternoon from near the mouth of the MS to
    far southwest GA. Gusty winds will be the main hazard with any
    stronger storm that can develop. However, very near the coast, if
    any weak surface-based instability can develop, favorable low-level
    shear could result in a tornado. Overall, severe potential appears
    to be quite limited by poor thermodynamics.

    ...TN/OH Valley vicinity...

    Isolated shallow convection may develop within the colder core of
    the upper low during the afternoon/early evening. Cooling midlevel
    temperatures will support steepening midlevel lapse rates,
    contributing to weak MUCAPE. Forecast soundings indicate somewhat
    dry midlevels, though some moistening may occur and low-topped
    convection could produce a few lightning strikes or even small,
    sub-severe hail for a few hours.

    ...NO THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Thunderstorm potential across the United States appears low on
    Saturday.

    ...Discussion...
    As an upper short-wave trough moves off the East Coast early in the
    period, flow aloft will trend quasi-zonal across the U.S. through
    Sunday morning. Emanating from a low over the southwestern Canada
    coast, several short-wave features are expected to eject eastward
    across the northern U.S. within the evolving/fast westerly flow
    regime.

    At the surface, a weak low is forecast to shift eastward across
    southern Canada, as the aforementioned short-wave energy shifts
    eastward. A trailing cold front associated with this low will shift southeastward across the northern Intermountain region through the
    period. Elsewhere, cold frontolysis will occur over the Florida
    Peninsula, as trailing portion of the cold front crossing the
    western Atlantic sags southward with time.

    With largely cool/stable air across most of the country, little
    thunder potential is evident. A flash or two may occur across parts
    of the northwestern U.S., within an area of showers across this
    region. A flash or two may occur offshore from Florida, but
    lightning is not expected inland. Overall, any lightning over the
    U.S. should remain well below 10% coverage thresholds, and thus no
    thunder areas will be included for this forecast.

    ...Synopsis...

    Low-amplitude, quasi-zonal upper level flow will emerge across the
    CONUS as a shortwave trough moves offshore the Atlantic coast early
    Saturday. At the surface, low pressure centered over southern
    portions of the Canadian Prairies will shift east, while a trailing
    cold front moves across the northern Rockies/High Plains region. A
    weak frontal zone across the FL Peninsula will dissipate, while
    strong surface high pressure persists across the eastern U.S.
    northern low-level flow across the western Atlantic and Gulf will
    result in a dry and stable airmass across much of the U.S. east of
    the Rockies.

    Precipitation is more likely across portions of the Pacific
    Northwest as moist onshore deep-layer flow streams over the region.
    Cold midlevels will result in steep lapse rates and meager elevated instability. A lightning flash or two is possible along the WA coast
    with low-topped convection, but thunderstorm coverage is expected to
    remain less than 10 percent and more likely offshore.

    ...NO THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Minimal thunder potential is evident across the U.S. on Monday.

    ...Discussion...
    A zonal flow configuration aloft is forecast at the start of the Day
    2 period across the U.S., but with weak amplification expected with
    time, as a weak low near the southwestern Canada coast deepens and
    retrogrades slowly southwestward. As this occurs, broader/weakly
    cyclonic flow will gradually evolve near and off the West Coast. In
    response, weak downstream ridging will occur over the central U.S.,
    and troughing still further downstream, over the eastern states.

    At the surface, a cold front will shift eastward across eastern
    Canada and the Northeast, and southward across the Plains and
    Midwest. By late in the period, the front should extend from near
    the New England coast and Mid-Atlantic region west-southwestward to
    the southern Plains.

    While weak low-level theta-e advection is expected across the
    southern U.S. south of the cold front, it should remain insufficient
    to yield CAPE supportive of thunderstorm development. Meanwhile,
    Arctic air expanding southward across the northern U.S. will prove
    hostile to deep convection.

    Late in the period, short-wave troughing moving into California will
    likely support an increase in showers -- and potentially an embedded
    lightning flash or two near the central Coast. Overall potential
    however does not appear to warrant inclusion of a 10% thunder area
    at this time.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Little if any thunder potential is evident across the U.S. on
    Monday.

    ...Synopsis...
    Zonal flow on Monday will gradually amplify a bit as a broad upper
    trough takes shape across the West with an upper low off the coastal
    Pacific Northwest. Meanwhile, a low-amplitude feature will move
    across the Great Lakes and into the Northeast.

    At the surface, the air mass will remain largely stable over land,
    with high pressure over the Southeast. Limited elevated instability
    may develop within a midlevel moist plume which will affect northern
    into central CA. However, overall thunderstorm chances appear below
    threshold.

    Elsewhere, low-level moisture will return into parts of TX toward
    the ArkLaTex with low to mid 60s F dewpoints. However, this air mass
    should remain capped beneath warm midlevel temperatures.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Thunderstorm potential appears low overall on Tuesday.

    ...Discussion...
    Low-amplitude flow aloft will prevail across the U.S. Tuesday, with
    a weak western ridge/central trough/eastern ridge configuration
    expected to prevail. Within the broader flow field, a short-wave
    trough is forecast to shift east-northeastward out of California and
    the Great Basin/Four Corners states through the period.

    At the surface, a baroclinic zone extending from the southern Plains
    to the Carolinas/Virginia will make slow southward progress across
    the southeastern states, while remaining more quasistationary over
    the southern Plains.

    Showers are forecast to develop north of the boundary later in the
    period -- particularly across the Mid-Mississippi/Ohio/Tennessee
    Valleys, as quasigeostrophic forcing for ascent increases. However,
    not more than a few flashes of lightning are anticipated at this
    time, prior to 05/12Z. A few flashes may also occur across portions
    of the West, in tandem with the advance of the upper short-wave
    feature, but coverage should remain well below 10% -- thus negating
    any need for a thunder area.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered weak thunderstorm development is possible along the
    western slopes of the Sierra Nevada, and near Oregon coastal areas,
    late Tuesday into Tuesday night. Otherwise, the risk for
    thunderstorms appears negligible across much of the nation.

    ...Discussion...
    Downstream of a blocking high, centered to the southeast of the
    Aleutians, models indicate that large-scale mid-level troughing will
    be maintained across and offshore of the Pacific Northwest, though
    an embedded low may reform to the south-southwest of Vancouver
    Island. To the east of this regime, large-scale mid-level ridging
    may continue to slowly build across the northern U.S. Great Plains
    and adjacent Canadian Prairies into the Great Lakes region, while a
    short wave perturbation digs within northwest flow to its northeast
    and east. In a separate branch of westerlies, emanating from the
    southern mid-latitude Pacific, a notable short wave perturbation is
    forecast to accelerate inland across the California coast and Great Basin/Rockies by 12Z Wednesday, ahead of an inland advancing
    perturbation within the more prominent cyclonic regime to the north.

    In lower-levels, it appears that surface troughing will slowly begin
    to deepen to the immediate lee of the Rockies, as the center of an
    expansive cold surface ridge shifts from the Canadian Prairies and
    northern U.S. Great Plains into the Great Lakes, beneath the more
    strongly confluent mid-level flow. The shallow leading edge of the
    seasonably cold air mass may stall across parts of the southern
    Great Plains into Ohio Valley, while advancing offshore of the
    northern and middle Atlantic Seaboard. At the same time, a
    southerly return flow of moisture is forecast to develop from parts
    of the western Gulf Basin into the southern U.S. Great Plains and
    lower Mississippi Valley.

    ...California/Sierra Nevada...
    In advance of the perturbation emanating from the southern
    mid-latitude Pacific, low/mid-level moistening, differential thermal
    advection and strong lift, aided by a strengthening upslope flow
    component, may contribute to weak destabilization along the western
    slopes of the Sierra Nevada by Tuesday afternoon. Forecast
    soundings suggest that thermodynamic profiles may become supportive
    of convection capable of producing lightning by early Tuesday
    evening, if not earlier.

    ...Oregon coastal areas...
    Models indicate that lower/mid-tropospheric cooling will lead to
    increasing boundary-layer destabilization near coastal areas through
    the period. As this occurs, some convection, within a broader area
    of continuing convective development, may deepen through
    sufficiently cold layers aloft to support occasional lightning.

    ...Ozark Plateau/Mid South...
    Beneath low-amplitude large-scale mid-level ridging across the
    southern Great Plains through the lower Mississippi Valley and
    Southeast, it appears that low-level moistening and warming will
    contribute to increasing potential instability. Models indicate
    that this will generally remain capped by a relatively warm/dry
    layer further aloft. However, it is possible that an area of
    strengthening lower/mid-tropospheric warm advection may become a
    focus for deepening elevated convective development by late Tuesday
    night, somewhere across the Ozark Plateau/Mid South vicinity. This
    may include isolated weak thunderstorm development, but the extent
    of this potential, and exactly where, remain uncertain, resulting in
    the maintenance of thunderstorm probabilities below 10 percent.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE
    MISSISSIPPI DELTA REGION NORTHEASTWARD ACROSS THE TENNESSEE VALLEY
    AREA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A couple of strong to potentially severe storms may occur across
    portions of the Mid South Wednesday.

    ...Synopsis...
    Within a background low-amplitude upper flow field, an embedded
    short-wave trough is forecast to shift across the Plains and
    into/across the Midwest/Ohio Valley region with time. As this
    occurs, a weak surface frontal wave along the lingering west-to-east
    baroclinic zone is expected to shift from the Oklahoma area during
    the afternoon, across the Mid Mississippi and later the Ohio Valley
    region. Showers and thunderstorms are expected across the Mid South
    region and vicinity, in response, particularly during the latter
    half of the period.

    ...Tennessee/Kentucky and vicinity...
    Convection is forecast to gradually increase into the afternoon and
    evening hours across the Mid and Lower Mississippi/Tennessee
    Valleys, and eventually Ohio Valley, with a broad zone of warm advection/quasigeostrophic forcing for ascent ahead of the advancing
    mid-level wave.

    While weak lapse rates and only partially modified low-level air
    will exist across the warm sector, shear will be favorable across
    the region for updraft organization. The lack of more substantial
    CAPE is expected to largely temper severe-weather potential, but a
    few stronger storms are expected, mainly from mid afternoon mid
    evening. Any vigorous/sustained updraft which can evolve, will be
    capable of producing gusty winds -- perhaps reaching severe levels
    locally. A brief tornado or two could also occur, given shear
    sufficient for both low- and mid-level updraft rotation.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER PORTIONS OF
    KENTUCKY AND TENNESSEE...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A conditional risk of a few strong or severe storms exists over
    parts of Kentucky and Tennessee late Wednesday.

    ...Synopsis...
    On Wednesday, an upper trough will be situated over the Pacific
    Northwest, with an early disturbance lifting into MT with height
    rises over OR. Otherwise, a westerly flow regime will exist across
    the rest of the CONUS, with various embedded waves.

    One such lead wave will move across the central Plains during the
    day, and will quickly move into the mid MS and lower OH valley
    during the evening and overnight.

    At the surface, high pressure will be strongest across the Great
    Lakes and Northeast, but another lobe of surface ridge will extend
    into the Southeast. Modest southerly low-level winds will maintain a
    moistening air mass from TX into the TN Valley, as a warm front
    lifts across TN and into KY. Overnight, a cold front associated with
    the midlevel wave will be near the OH River between 06-12Z, likely
    interacting with the moist plume.

    ...KY/TN/MS/AL...
    During the day, a few thunderstorms may develop within the deepening
    moist plume from northern MS/AL into Middle TN. This will occur with
    limited surface heating, and primarily in association with weak warm
    advection and moisture extending up through 700 mb. Midlevel lapse
    rates will not be very steep, and general thunderstorms appear most
    likely here.

    Overnight, as the midlevel wave and cold front approaches from the
    west, lift will interact with the low 60s F dewpoints and MLCAPE
    over 500 J/kg, with several thunderstorms possible. The main
    uncertainty for severe risk is regarding low-level lapse rates,
    however, shear will be strong with long hodographs and effective SRH
    possibly exceeding 400 m2/s2. As such, a conditional risk of a
    supercell or two will exist, including brief tornado risk as well as
    strong wind gusts.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe weather is not expected across the U.S. on Thursday.

    ...Discussion...
    Zonal flow aloft will broadly persist across the U.S. Thursday, with
    the two main features being a short-wave trough pivoting toward --
    and eventually into -- the Pacific Northwest, and a second that will
    cross Ontario/Quebec and the Great Lakes region through the period.
    Meanwhile, a much weaker/more subtle disturbance will move out of
    the Pacific and across California early, and then continue eastward
    across the Four Corners states, and eventually -- by the end of the
    period -- emerge into the Plains.

    At the surface, a weak frontal wave should move across the central
    Appalachians and then off the New England coast by evening, while
    the trailing cold front makes only slow southward progress across
    the Southeast and Southern Plains through the period.

    Showers and possibly a few weak thunderstorms may be ongoing at the
    start of the period, from the Tennessee Valley into the Mid-Atlantic
    region. Weak convective activity will likely continue during the
    period, along the aforementioned surface front as it sags southward.
    However, weak instability forecast across the region should
    substantially hinder appreciable severe risk. At this time, it
    appears that a stronger, elevated afternoon storm or two, evolving
    over the North Carolina vicinity, possibly capable of producing
    hail. However, overall risk for any hail exceeding 1" in diameter
    appears too small at this time to introduce a MRGL risk area.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS THURSDAY MORNING
    ACROSS PARTS OF SOUTHEASTERN KENTUCKY AND ADJACENT PORTIONS OF TENNESSEE...VIRGINIA...WEST VIRGINIA....

    ...SUMMARY...
    Strong thunderstorms posing at least some risk for scattered
    potentially damaging wind gusts and perhaps small hail may impact
    parts of southeastern Kentucky and adjacent portions of northern
    Tennessee, southwestern Virginia and West Virginia early Thursday.

    ...Discussion...
    Models indicate that large-scale ridging centered over the
    northeastern Pacific will be maintained through this period,
    although it appears that an embedded mid-level high to the southeast
    of the Aleutians is in the process of weakening. As this proceeds,
    the downstream mid-level low, currently offshore of the Pacific
    Northwest, is also forecast to weaken, and a more significant
    upstream perturbation may begin to migrate inland across
    Oregon/northern California coastal areas by late Thursday night.
    Downstream, it appears that broad mid-level ridging will build
    across the northern Rockies and Great Plains, eastward into the
    lower Ohio Valley, to the north of broad ridging centered over the
    subtropical western Atlantic through northern Mexico, and in the
    wake of a significant mid-level trough accelerating across and east
    of the Great Lakes through Canadian Maritimes.

    The latter feature may be accompanied by cyclogenesis across the St.
    Lawrence Valley, and/or across the Canadian Maritimes by the end of
    the period, but models vary concerning this. However, it does
    appear that the leading edge of a slowly modifying surface cold
    intrusion to the lee of the Rockies will advance through the Mid
    Atlantic and south of the Ohio Valley, while remaining generally
    stalled across parts of the southern Great Plains. At the same
    time, a return flow of moisture may continue across the western Gulf
    Basin through the northwestern Gulf Coast/lower Mississippi Valley
    and middle/southern Atlantic Seaboard. Beneath relatively warm
    layers at mid/upper levels, potential instability is likely to
    remain weak, and capped, except in a corridor near the southward
    advancing front, from parts of the Ozark Plateau/Mid South into the
    Alleghenies and east of the Blue Ridge, where scattered thunderstorm development is possible Thursday into Thursday night.

    ...Mid South into Allegheny/Cumberland Plateau...
    In response to a short wave perturbation, consolidating with the
    larger-scale mid-level troughing progressing into/through the Great
    Lakes late tonight into early Thursday, lower/mid-tropospheric wind
    fields are forecast to undergo considerable intensification across
    and east-northeast of the lower Ohio Valley vicinity. It appears
    that this will include strengthening to 50-70+ kt within a
    southwesterly to westerly regime in the 850-500 mb layer, across a
    narrow destabilizing pre-frontal corridor across southeastern
    Kentucky and adjacent portions of surrounding states by 12Z
    Thursday.

    However, where large-scale ascent is able to overcome mid-level
    inhibition and support thunderstorm development, RAP and NAM
    forecast soundings exhibit mid-level lapse rates supportive of only
    weak CAPE, which probably will remain rooted above a saturated near-
    surface layer characterized by moist adiabatic to more stable lapse
    rates. While this is generally expected to minimize the risk for
    severe weather, small hail might not be out of the question in
    stronger storms, and it is possible that latent cooling associated
    with melting might enhance downdrafts sufficiently to aid the
    downward transfer of stronger momentum to the surface.

    Showers and a few lightning flashes will be possible Friday,

    ...Discussion...
    Within the background quasi-zonal flow aloft across the U.S., a
    short-wave trough is forecast to shift eastward out of the
    northwestern U.S. across the Great Basin and northern Intermountain
    region. Quasigeostrophic ascent associated with this feature will
    support scattered showers, with a few lightning flashes possible -- particularly across favored high-terrain areas of northern Utah and
    surrounding areas.

    The advance of the aforementioned upper system will support eastward progression of a weak/associated surface low. Late in the period,
    the low should emerge into the northern Plains. Meanwhile, farther
    south, a persistent baroclinic zone will remain draped from Oklahoma
    to the Carolinas through the period. While isolated showers will be
    possible in the vicinity of this front, weak instability should
    preclude thunderstorm potential.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated thunderstorms are possible from central Texas to southeast
    Oklahoma Monday night/early Tuesday.

    ...Southern Plains...

    Quasi-zonal upper flow will overspread much of the CONUS on Monday.
    As an upper trough develops slowly east across the Southwest and
    northern Mexico, deep-layer southwesterly flow will overspread the
    southern Plains. Weak large-scale ascent will overspread the region
    during the nighttime hours, providing some support for convective
    development.

    At the surface, a cold front will linger near the Gulf coast. Some
    northward retreat of this boundary is possible, though forecast
    guidance still varies quite a bit regarding the location of the
    boundary during the last 6-12 hours of the forecast period.
    Regardless, deeper boundary-layer moisture will remain confined to
    the TX coastal Plain. Nevertheless, warm advection atop the boundary
    into central/north TX and the ArkLaTex vicinity is expected. Some
    cooling aloft and steepening lapse rates will support modest
    elevated instability (generally less than 400 J/kg MUCAPE)
    overnight. Isolated thunderstorms will be possible within this warm
    advection regime from near the TX Big Bend to southeast OK Monday
    night/early Tuesday. Severe thunderstorm potential is expected to
    remain low given poor thermodynamics.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated to scattered thunderstorms are possible from the southern
    Plains into the lower Mississippi Valley on Tuesday. Severe weather
    is not currently anticipated.

    ...Synopsis...
    Broad upper-level troughing is expected to evolve over much of the
    West on Tuesday. A shortwave perturbation is expected to eject into
    the southern Plains late Tuesday into Wednesday morning. At the
    surface, a cold front should extend from the southern High Plains
    into central Texas before arcing northeastward along the upper Texas
    Gulf Coast and into the lower Mississippi Valley.

    ...Southern Plains to Lower Mississippi Valley...
    Precipitation is likely to be ongoing early Tuesday morning. Most of
    this activity will be occurring on the cool side of the boundary.
    This should reinforce the front, though some modest northward
    progression of warmer, moist air may occur within the coastal plain
    regions. Potential for surface-based storms south of the boundary in
    southeast Texas/Sabine Valley vicinity appears low as the low-level
    jet will weaken during the morning/afternoon and mid-level ascent
    will be weak. Furthermore, forecast soundings indicate poor lapse
    rates in the column and warm layers that will inhibit updraft
    intensity. Overnight Tuesday into Wednesday morning, additional
    isolated to scattered storms are possible from the Edwards Plateau
    into Central/Northeast Texas as mid-level forcing and 850 mb warm
    advection increases. Again, these storms will be elevated on the
    cool side of the boundary. The strongest of these storms could
    produce small hail. The overall severe threat appears too
    isolated/uncertain for unconditional probabilities.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS SOUTHERN GEORGIA...NORTHERN FLORIDA...AND THE EASTERN HALF OF THE FLORIDA
    PANHANDLE...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Locally strong wind gusts are possible Sunday morning, particularly
    across portions of the Southeast but possibly as far north as the
    Mid-Atlantic region.

    ...Synopsis...
    A vigorous/fast-moving short-wave trough -- embedded in broader
    cyclonic flow aloft -- will move quickly eastward across the eastern
    quarter of the U.S. Sunday. As this feature reaches the Atlantic
    Coast/New England by evening, lower-amplitude/westerly flow will
    evolve across much of the rest of the country.

    At the surface, sharp cold front should extend from an eastern Ohio
    low, southward roughly along the Appalachians to the Florida
    Panhandle. This front will move steadily eastward/southeastward,
    and should clear the Middle and Southern Atlantic Coast during the
    afternoon. During the evening and overnight, the occluding/parent
    low is forecast to shift across New England, while the trailing
    front moves eastward across the western Atlantic and southward
    across the Florida Peninsula and Gulf of America through Sunday
    morning. In the wake of this front, Arctic air will gradually
    spread southeastward across the Plains/Midwest, and eventually the
    Northeast.

    ...Southeastern U.S. to the Mid-Atlantic region...
    A band of showers and embedded thunderstorms will be ongoing at the
    start of the period near the advancing cold front. The greatest
    coverage of lightning is expected from the southern Appalachians to
    the Florida Gulf Coast, where a well-organized squall line should be
    ongoing from central Georgia to the Florida Panhandle. Modest CAPE
    across this part of the area will support deeper updrafts, and thus
    greater potential for some downward transport of high-momentum flow
    aloft. Risk for subsequent strong-to-severe gusts at the surface
    appears sufficient to warrant an upgrade to SLGT risk across
    southern Georgia, northern Florida, and central and eastern parts of
    the Florida Panhandle. Storms should reach/clear the South Carolina
    and Georgia coasts around midday, ending the risk over all but
    northern Florida, where wind risk should gradually diminish as
    weakening convection shifts southward through the afternoon.

    Farther north, weaker instability will limit convective
    intensity/depth, with lightning expected to be generally more
    isolated/sporadic with northward extent. Still, with very strong
    flow aloft preceding the upper trough, stronger, fast-moving
    convective elements may still produce gusty winds, and thus
    potential for minor damage locally as far north as the
    Chesapeake/Delmarva area until the primary band of storms moves
    offshore through mid afternoon.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A few thunderstorms may occur over parts of southern Florida and the
    Keys on Monday.

    ...Synopsis...
    As upper short-wave troughing departs the Northeast Monday, briefly zonal/westerly flow aloft will prevail. Later in the period,
    however, gradual amplification of the flow field will begin over the
    West, as a short-wave trough digs southeastward out of the Pacific
    Northwest across the Great Basin toward the Four Corners region.

    At the surface, a cold front moving eastward across the western
    Atlantic will trail southwestward into southern Florida early in the
    period. Meanwhile, a broad area of lee-side low pressure will
    prevail over the central/southern High Plains, as strong westerlies
    aloft persist ahead of the gradually amplifying western trough. A
    resulting, broad zone of low-level warm advection will remain across
    the central and southern Plains region through the period.

    ...South Florida and the Keys...
    As the trailing portion of the cold front drifts slowly southward
    across southern Florida and the Florida Keys through the first half
    of the period, showers and isolated thunderstorms appear likely.
    The convection should shift southward with time in tandem with the
    progression of the front, with any lingering lightning overnight
    likely to have moved south of the Florida mainland.

    ...Elsewhere...
    Showers -- and a few sporadic lightning flashes -- are expected to
    occur with a diurnally driven peak in activity, from the Pacific
    Northwest east-southeastward into the Wyoming/Colorado vicinity, in
    tandem with progression of the short-wave trough. Any lightning
    activity should remain sparse, thus precluding the need for a 10%
    thunder area.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated to scattered thunderstorms are possible from the southern
    Plains into the lower Mississippi Valley on Tuesday. Severe weather
    is not currently anticipated.

    ...Southern Plains to Lower MS Valley...

    A large-scale upper trough will migrate across the western U.S. on
    Tuesday, becoming oriented over the High Plains and northern Mexico
    by early Wednesday. Enhanced southwesterly flow ahead of this
    feature will overspread the southern Plains to the Lower MS, TN and
    OH Valleys. During the day, several shortwave impulses will migrate
    through southwesterly flow from the southern Plains to the
    Mid-South, while stronger large-scale ascent tied to the main upper
    trough will emerge over OK/TX to the ArkLaTex early Wednesday.

    Forecast guidance continues to vary with position/evolution of a
    surface boundary located over the TX/LA coastal plain during the
    morning. The ECMWF continues to be somewhat of an outlier,
    maintaining a more northward position of this boundary compared to
    other guidance. This does introduce some uncertainty with regards to
    severe potential. However, the current expectation is that even if a
    more northerly surface boundary position occurs, several other
    factors will act to limit severe thunderstorm probabilities.

    While warm advection through the period will result in scattered
    thunderstorms from Tuesday morning into Wednesday morning from the
    southern Plains to the Lower MS Valley, large-scale ascent will be
    focused somewhat to the north of better low-level moisture near the
    Coastal Plain. Additionally, convection will largely remain to the
    cool side of the boundary given boundary-parallel deep-layer flow
    and a lack of stronger surface cyclogenesis. This should limit
    convective potential ahead of the front in the open warm sector.
    Forecast soundings also indicate warm layers aloft, and overall
    modest lapse rates, resulting in mostly weak elevated instability
    unfavorable for stronger updrafts despite moderate to strong
    vertical shear.

    Overnight, as stronger large-scale ascent moves into the southern
    Plains with the main upper trough, additional elevated thunderstorms
    are likely to develop across parts of central TX eastward toward the
    Sabine Valley. Cooling aloft will aid in steeper midlevel lapse
    rates and increasing MUCAPE. This activity may conditionally pose a
    risk for hail to near 1 inch diameter in the last 3-6 hours of the
    forecast period. Overall potential appears too limited/uncertain to
    include a Marginal risk at this time.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM PARTS OF
    EASTERN LOUISIANA INTO CENTRAL/SOUTHERN MISSISSIPPI AND PARTS OF WESTERN/CENTRAL ALABAMA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe storms will be possible Wednesday afternoon into Wednesday
    night from the Sabine Valley vicinity into far western Georgia.

    ...Synopsis...
    A shortwave trough pivoting through the southern High Plains will
    begin to intensify by Wednesday afternoon as it approaches the
    mid-Mississippi Valley. A surface cyclone will evolve along a
    southward-surging cold front in the southern Plains. The surface low
    will deepen more substantially by late afternoon in the
    mid-Mississippi Valley as it moves quickly north and east. Richer
    Gulf moisture will return into the Southeast and may reach as far
    north as portions of Tennessee. The cold front will sweep through
    the Southeast beginning in the late afternoon and into Thursday
    morning.

    ...Lower MS Valley/Central Gulf Coast States...
    Warm advection precipitation will likely be ongoing along the
    surface boundary Wednesday morning. Models vary on the spatial
    extent of precipitation with the ECMWF generally showing less
    clearing during the afternoon than other models. Available CAM
    guidance also shows similar variability. In terms of environment,
    low/mid 60s F dewpoints should reach through much of
    Alabama/Mississippi. Upper 60s F dewpoints are expected in southern Louisiana/Mississippi/Alabama, but could potentially push as far
    north as central Mississippi/Alabama as strong advection continues
    into the evening. Effective shear of 50-60 kts will favor organized storms/bowing segments. This shear will initially be roughly
    parallel to the front, but, as the front surges southeast, shear
    vectors will have a greater cross-boundary component. Strong
    low-level shear will also be in place with a 45-55 kt low-level jet
    moving from Louisiana during the morning into Mississippi/Alabama
    during the afternoon.

    The current expectation is for morning storms near the Sabine Valley
    to gradually intensify as they move northeast into a modestly
    destabilizing boundary-layer. How these storms evolve is uncertain.
    Damaging winds are a likely hazard, but, depending on storm mode and
    the degree of heating in Mississippi, could also pose a similar risk
    for tornadoes. Storms along the front are not likely to make much
    progress southeastward until the late afternoon. As the front moves,
    convective transport of the strong wind fields will promote damaging
    winds and strong low-level shear will bring a risk for embedded circulations/QLCS tornadoes. Discrete development ahead of the front
    during the evening is possible given strong theta-e advection and
    weak capping, but synoptic ascent will be displaced north which
    reduces confidence in that scenario. Surface-based storms become
    much less likely into Tennessee and Georgia.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS SOUTHEAST
    TEXAS AND SOUTHERN LOUISIANA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A couple of strong to severe thunderstorms are expected to evolve
    across southeast Texas and portions of southern Louisiana, mainly
    Tuesday evening and into the overnight hours.

    ...Upper TX Coast and Southern LA...

    An upper shortwave trough will move across the Plains to the MS
    Valley on Tuesday. This will bring a swath of enhanced
    mid/upper-level southwesterly flow across the south-central states.
    At the surface, a weak low will traverse the western Gulf Coast
    vicinity to southern MS through the period. Meanwhile, an Arctic
    cold front will surge south/southeast across the region mainly after
    00z and into Wednesday morning.

    Ahead of the cold front, southerly near-surface flow and a
    strengthening southwesterly low-level jet will transport 60s F
    dewpoints northward. However, the northward extent of deeper
    moisture return will be limited to near the I-10 corridor. A cool boundary-layer beneath a warm layer between 925-850 mb will result
    in little surface-based instability. Additionally, nebulous
    large-scale ascent will preclude convective development until near
    00z when the upper trough impinges on the area. Cooling aloft and
    modestly steep midlevel lapse rates amid moistening low/midlevels
    will support MUCAPE values up to around 1000 J/kg. Vertical shear
    will be favorable for organized convection, with elongated/straight
    hodographs forecast above the aforementioned warm layer. While the
    warm sector will be rather limited, and the cold front will quickly
    surge southeast after dark, a few stronger elevated storms will be
    possible. This activity will mainly pose a risk for marginally
    severe hail.

    There is some conditional potential toward the end of the period for near-surface based convection across parts of southern LA. However,
    this is conditional on the northward extent of the warm sector,
    which remains uncertain as the surface low is forecast to track very
    near the coast. If near-surface based storms can develop, some
    potential for strong gusts and a tornado or two will accompany
    storms given very favorable low-level SRH and large/curved low-level hodographs. Will include low tornado probabilities to encompass this
    scenario, though this outcome remains uncertain.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS MUCH OF THE SOUTHEAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe storms will be possible Wednesday afternoon into Wednesday
    night from the Sabine Valley vicinity into far western Georgia.

    ...Synopsis...
    A broad trough with multiple embedded mid-level vorticity maxima
    will become more consolidated with a 125 knot mid-level jet streak
    over the Lower Ohio River Valley by 12Z Thursday. At the surface, a
    weak low will move along a frontal zone from West Texas to the Ohio
    Valley and then deepen into the eastern Great Lakes between 06Z and
    12Z Thursday. A broad warm sector will be in place along the Gulf
    Coast states and will attempt to progress inland, but extensive
    precipitation within a warm air advection zone from northern
    Louisiana to northern Georgia will stunt its northward progress.

    ...Southeast...
    There is a consistent signal among 12Z CAM guidance for a line of
    storms to either develop south of or emanate from an expansive area
    of precipitation across Louisiana tomorrow morning. There will be a
    period of time during the afternoon when this line of storms may
    have sufficient instability (amid a strongly sheared environment) to
    support a damaging wind threat and tornado threat, particularly with
    any embedded supercells). However, by late afternoon/evening this
    line of storms will weaken as it moves east of the better
    instability.

    An additional severe weather threat will evolve from the late
    afternoon into the overnight hours as the surface front surges
    southeast and the low-level jet strengthens. This threat will begin
    across eastern Louisiana. Earlier in the afternoon, winds will be
    veered across this region, but as the front sharpens and the
    low-level jet strengthens, winds are expected to back somewhat which
    will increase low-level convergence along the front and strengthen
    low-level shear. The southeastward acceleration of the surface front
    may eventually outrun the line of storms given the mean storm motion
    vector, however, 12Z guidance has indicated a greater threat for a
    pre-frontal band of supercells after 06Z across southern Alabama and
    the western Florida Panhandle. This scenario seems reasonable given
    the stronger low-level jet forecast between 06Z and 12Z and also
    based on current (17Z) surface observations showing dewpoints 2 to 3
    F greater than most guidance today. A pre-frontal band of supercells
    would continue the severe weather threat, including the tornado
    threat, through the entire overnight period. The slight risk has
    been expanded south and east to address this concern.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated, marginally severe storms are possible early Thursday
    morning in parts of the Florida Panhandle, southeast Alabama, and
    southwest Georgia. Damaging winds and brief tornado or two are the
    primary threats.

    ...Synopsis...
    A potent upper-level trough and associated strong jet streak will
    move through the Ohio Valley and into the Mid-Atlantic/New England
    through the day on Thursday. Strong flow will extend southward into
    the Southeast and North Florida. In California, a strong upper
    trough will impact the northern/central coast late in the period. A
    cold front is forecast to be near the Alabama/Georgia border in the
    morning and move eastward and offshore by the afternoon.

    A few thunderstorms may occur in the southern Appalachians/Piedmont
    before weakening as they encounter less stable air to the east.
    Additional isolated thunderstorms are possible in portions of
    northern/central California as strong forcing and cold temperatures
    aloft move inland. Severe weather is not expected in either area.

    ...Florida Panhandle and adjacent Alabama/Georgia...
    A line of convection is expected to be ongoing Thursday morning from
    the Florida Panhandle into southeast Alabama and southwest Georgia.
    Waning instability should generally limit the overall strength of
    the line and low-level wind fields will be weakening with time as
    well. However, at least a few hours of strong to marginally severe
    storms are possible. Isolated damaging winds and a brief tornado or
    two are the expected hazards. There is some uncertainty as to where
    the line of convection will be. The current probabilities attempt to
    capture the envelope of model solutions. Adjustments will likely
    occur as confidence increases in placement.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated, marginally severe storms are possible early Thursday
    morning in parts of the Florida Panhandle, southeast Alabama, and
    southern Georgia. Damaging winds and brief tornado or two are the
    primary threats.

    ...Synopsis...
    A strong mid-level trough and associated surface low will
    amplify/deepen across the northeast Thursday morning with a trailing
    cold front extending southward along the Appalachians and into
    southeast Alabama and the Florida Panhandle. This front will move
    off the Atlantic Coast by Thursday evening with high pressure
    building in across much of the eastern CONUS in its wake. Meanwhile,
    a strong surface low will approach the northern California/southwest
    Oregon Coast during the day Thursday.

    ...Southeast...
    A line of thunderstorms will be ongoing at the beginning of the
    period from central Georgia and perhaps into South Carolina and
    southern North Carolina to the Florida Peninsula. By 12Z the
    greatest severe weather threat will likely be focused across
    southern Georgia where mid-60s dewpoints are forecast. A strong (50
    knot) low-level jet is forecast to be in place at 12Z, but will
    weaken through the morning as the primary surface low quickly moves
    farther away to the northeast. During this period in the morning
    with a strong low-level jet and ample instability, a threat for
    damaging wind gusts and perhaps a tornado or two will remain. This
    front is expected to move offshore by mid afternoon and thunderstorm
    intensity will likely have likely waned by this time due to the
    weakening forcing.

    ...Northern California...
    A strong surface low of the northern California coast will result in
    favorable shear across much of central and northern California
    tomorrow. Isolated to scattered thunderstorms are possible across
    much of this region with weak instability present. If any pockets of
    greater (250-500 J/kg) MLCAPE can develop during the day Thursday
    when shear remains strong, a damaging wind gust or tornado is
    possible. However, at this time forecast soundings show the greater
    instability arriving beneath the upper-level low when shear will
    also be reduced. Therefore, given the lack of overlap between
    greater instability and shear, no Marginal Risk was added at this
    time.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Thunderstorms are possible from the Sabine Valley into the Ozarks
    and Mid-South on Friday. Additional isolated storms are possible in
    the southern Great Basin/Four Corners vicinity. Severe weather is
    not currently expected.

    ...Synopsis...
    A strong upper-level trough will move eastward through the Great
    Basin and reach the Southwest by early Saturday morning. At the
    surface, a lee cyclone will develop in eastern Colorado and evolve southeastward into the southern Plains. A cold front will move into
    the southern Plains and extent northeastward into the Upper Midwest.
    Moisture will begin to rapidly return Friday afternoon into the
    lower Mississippi Valley and parts of East Texas.

    ...Sabine Valley/Ozarks/Mid-South...
    As the upper trough approaches and warm advection intensifies during
    the evening/overnight Friday, a few storms may develop from the
    ArkLaTex into the Ozarks. Additional storm development is likely to
    occur later farther east in the Mid-South. The thermodynamic
    environment is expected to limit severe potential in the Mid-South.
    Within the ArkLaTex/Ozarks, current guidance suggests scattered
    storms are probable. The environment here will have strong shear,
    but will only have modest mid-level lapse rates/buoyancy. Given the
    marginal thermodynamics in addition to storm interactions, the
    coverage of marginally severe hail is expected to be quite limited.
    Small hail appears more probable in the strongest storms. Farther
    south, low-level moisture will be greater, but warm air aloft
    currently appears that it will suppress any deep convection.

    ...Southern Great Basin/Four Corners...
    Modest surface heating with 500 mb temperatures around -25 C will
    promote isolated convection capable of sporadic lightning. Buoyancy
    will be minimal and severe weather is not likely.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Aside from some potential for a couple of weak thunderstorms across
    parts of the northern Rockies vicinity, the risk for thunderstorms
    appears negligible across much of the U.S., Friday through Friday
    night.

    ...Discussion...
    Models indicate that broad mid/upper ridging will be maintained
    across the subtropical latitudes, from northern Mexico through the
    western Atlantic, and a prominent influence across the southern into
    central tier of the U.S. through this period, downstream of
    persistent ridging in the northern mid-latitudes, and troughing in
    the southern mid- to subtropic latitudes, of the eastern Pacific.
    To the east of the northeastern Pacific ridging, broad mean
    troughing, with more progressive embedded smaller-scale
    perturbations, is forecast to linger across British Columbia and
    the Pacific Northwest, while developing eastward across the Canadian
    Prairies, northern U.S. Rockies and Great Plains.

    Beneath this regime, guidance indicates potential for modest surface cyclogenesis across eastern Colorado through areas near/south of the Kansas/Oklahoma border vicinity. There appears better consensus
    among the models, particularly the ECENS/ECMWF and GEFS/GFS. But
    this output may still be having issues handling ongoing reinforcing
    cold intrusions to the lee of Rockies. The NAM and Rapid Refresh
    remain slower to erode the colder boundary-layer across the Texas
    South Plains into central Oklahoma vicinity, and are slower and
    weaker with the evolving surface wave.

    Otherwise, a gradual erosion, from south to north, of the shallow
    leading edge of the entrenched cold air mass is possible, beneath a
    continuing southerly to westerly return flow across parts of the
    southeastern Great Plains into southern Mid Atlantic. However, it
    appears that associated moisture emanating from a modifying western
    Gulf boundary layer will not become supportive of more than weak destabilization, or an appreciable risk for thunderstorms, due to
    negligible forcing for ascent and warm, capping layers aloft.

    ...Pacific Northwest into northern Great Plains...
    Models do indicate that forcing for ascent and cooling mid-levels
    may contribute to pockets of weak destabilization across parts of
    the Pacific Northwest into northern Great Plains during this period.
    However, based on the latest NAM and Rapid Refresh forecast
    soundings, the calibrated High Resolution Ensemble Forecast guidance
    might be too aggressive with probabilities for thunderstorms across
    the eastern Great Basin into northern Rockies vicinity for Friday
    afternoon and evening. Instability will probably be sufficient to
    support scattered to numerous snow and rain showers. However,
    whether the boundary layer in higher elevations warms enough, or
    convection initiating in lower elevations deepens through
    sufficiently cold layers aloft, to support an appreciable risk for
    lightning remains a bit unclear.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Shallow convective showers and isolated thunderstorms are possible
    in portions of the Ohio/Tennessee Valleys on Saturday. Severe
    weather potential is low.

    ...Synopsis...
    Low-amplitude upper-level ridging will develop in the wake of
    departing trough across the Great Lakes into the Mid-South. Within
    the central Plains, another shortwave trough is expected to
    intensify as it progresses eastward into the Ohio
    Valley/Mid-Atlantic by Sunday morning. At the surface, the initial
    stages of warm advection into the Tennessee Valley will take place
    late Friday night and will continue through mid/late Saturday
    afternoon. Modest moisture (mid/upper 50s F dewpoints) may reach as
    far north as the Ohio Valley region. By Saturday evening, a strong
    cold front will then push into Mid-South/Southeast into Sunday
    morning. A modest surface cyclone will develop in response to the
    secondary upper trough and progress along the surface boundary.

    ...Ohio/Tennessee Valleys...
    Models continue to show variability in the strength of the surface
    cyclone and, consequently, the degree of warm/moist advection into
    the regions. Despite these differences, there is likely to be some
    remnant, shallow cold air across Kentucky/Tennessee and adjacent
    areas. Cloud cover will mute surface heating, but offsetting warm
    advection should allow areas of low 60s F temperatures south of the
    Ohio River. The thermodynamic environment is expected to be rather
    weak. The general model consensus would suggest no more than 100
    J/kg of MUCAPE is possible. The primary driver of convection will be
    the cold front where shallow convective showers are probable.
    Convective depth will be limited by lingering warm air aloft and
    lightning production will be minimal to isolated. Even with these
    limitations, 40-50 kts of flow at 850 mb could allow for isolated
    stronger wind gusts within locally deeper convection. Given the
    remaining uncertainties and expected sparse coverage of marginally
    stronger activity, severe potential still appears low. Near and
    north of the Ohio River, convection should remain elevated with
    similar low/isolated potential for lightning.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS EXTREME
    EAST TEXAS...NORTHERN LOUISIANA...SOUTHEAST ARKANSAS...SOUTHWEST TENNESSEE...MUCH OF MISSISSIPPI...AND WEST-CENTRAL ALABAMA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe weather is expected from East Texas into much of the
    Southeast and parts of the Mid-South on Saturday. Scattered to
    numerous damaging wind gusts and a few tornadoes are the primary
    threats. Storms are expected from late afternoon through the
    overnight hours.

    ...Mid-South and Southeast...

    An upper trough will migrate east across the Plains to the MS Valley
    on Saturday. Strong southwesterly deep-layer flow, characterized by
    a 500 mb jet streak around 80-100 kt, will overspread the region,
    mainly near/after 00z. As stronger height falls approach the
    ArkLaTex and MS Valley, a low-level jet greater than 50 kt will
    develop from LA into TN/KY. Meanwhile at the surface, southerly
    low-level flow will allow 60s F dewpoints to march northward,
    reaching as far north as western TN. Boundary-layer moisture into
    the mid-60s F is expected to remain south of the MS/TN border.

    A surface low is expected to deepen during the afternoon into the
    nighttime hours as it tracks from AR to OH. A cold front attendant
    to the low will sweep east/southeast from late afternoon into early
    Sunday. Warm advection across this boundary will result in
    widespread showers and isolated thunderstorms from east TX into the
    Lower OH Valley for much of the day. This will limit the northward
    extent of the advancing warm sector, with a warm front expected to
    stall across TN into northern GA. Large-scale ascent is not expected
    to overspread the region until evening, so open warm sector
    convection likely will remain limited diurnally.

    By late afternoon, more robust convection is expected to develop
    along the sharpening cold front from eastern AR into east TX/western
    LA within a plume of 1000-1500 J/kg MLCAPE and strong vertical
    shear. A QLCS producing a swath of damaging gusts is likely to move
    across the region through the overnight hours. Favorable low-level
    shear, characterized by enlarged, looping hodographs suggests
    tornadoes also will be possible with mesovortex formation along the
    line, in addition to any line-embedded supercells. A more
    conditional threat exists with any supercells that can develop ahead
    of the line in the open warm sector, something that remains
    uncertain at this time. Any cells that do develop ahead of the line
    will pose a risk for tornadoes and damaging gusts, and could also
    pose a risk for increasing tornado potential as they interact with
    the QLCS.

    The north and east extent of the severe risk areas remains a bit
    uncertain, in part due to cold air damming into the southern
    Appalachians and how much this is able to erode. A general decrease
    in boundary-layer moisture and instability is expected with
    northeast extent during the overnight hours. However, the expected
    intense deep-layer wind field will likely maintain some damaging
    wind and tornado risk into AL and perhaps parts of western GA.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered thunderstorm development is possible across parts of the
    Ohio Valley Saturday into Saturday night, but the risk for severe
    weather appears negligible.

    ...Discussion...
    Mid/upper flow is in the process of amplifying across the northern mid-latitudes of the eastern Pacific into western North America, and
    models continue to indicate further amplification into and through
    this period. This includes building mid-level ridging across the
    northeastern Pacific through Alaska, and subsequent digging
    downstream troughing across and to the lee of the Canadian and
    northern U.S. Rockies. Otherwise, the confluent downstream
    westerlies are forecast to remain generally zonal across the
    interior U.S. through offshore western Atlantic, between broad
    ridging, centered over the subtropic latitudes of northern Mexico
    into the western Atlantic, and a broad vortex, centered near the
    northeastern Canadian Arctic latitudes. At mid/upper levels, the
    subtropical ridging may maintain considerable influence as far north
    as the southern into central tier of the United States.

    Within the confluent regime across the northern tier of the U.S., it
    still appears that at least a couple of short wave perturbations
    might loosely consolidate into larger-scale, but still
    low-amplitude, troughing across the Great Lakes into Northeast by
    late Saturday through Saturday night. This is forecast to be
    trailed by a similar perturbation accelerating from the Great Basin
    into north central Great Plains. Beneath and just to the south of
    this regime, another cold surface ridge is likely to be in the
    process of building to the lee of the northern Rockies by early
    Saturday, reinforcing cold air already entrenched to the east of the
    Rockies. It still appears that the shallow southern periphery of
    this cold air will initially be in the process of eroding beneath a
    continuing south to southwesterly return flow across the Ozark
    Plateau into Ohio Valley. However, models indicate that associated
    low-level warming and moistening will largely remain confined
    beneath dry, warming layers farther aloft, as the reinforcing cold
    intrusion progresses south (and reaches the Gulf Coast state by 12Z
    Sunday).

    ...Ohio Valley...
    A pre-frontal corridor of boundary-layer warming and moistening near
    a developing frontal wave may contribute to weak potential
    instability, coincident with strengthening lower/mid-tropospheric
    wind fields, across the southern/eastern Kentucky vicinity by late
    Saturday afternoon. However, based on latest model output, it
    remains unlikely that forcing for ascent within the warm sector will
    be sufficient to overcome inhibition.

    Weak elevated thunderstorm development still appears possible
    Saturday through Saturday night, within an initial
    lower/mid-tropospheric warm advection regime near/north of the Ohio
    River into Allegheny Plateau and, later, near/south of the Ohio
    River along the undercutting southward advancing cold front.

    Severe weather is expected from East Texas into much of the

    numerous damaging wind gusts and a few tornadoes are the primary
    threats. Storms are expected from late afternoon through the

    ...Synopsis...
    A mid-level trough will traverse from the Southwest Saturday morning
    to the Mid-Mississippi Valley by 12Z Sunday. As this trough becomes
    negatively tilted after 00Z, the surface low will rapidly deepen by
    10+ mb as it moves from central Arkansas to northeast Ohio. A cold
    front will extend southwest from this surface low and sharpen
    through the evening before advancing east during the late evening
    and into the overnight hours.

    ...Mid-South and Southeast...
    An expansive region of strengthening low-level flow will advance a
    broad warm sector northward across the Gulf Coast states Saturday
    morning. North of this warm front within a 50 knot low-level jet,
    elevated thunderstorms are expected. Weak instability and shear
    should result in mostly sub-severe storms, but isolated large hail
    may be possible. Expect persistent thunderstorm activity along the
    diffuse cold front from far East Texas to the Mid-Mississippi Valley
    through the morning to early afternoon with mostly sub-severe
    storms. However, richer theta-e will interact with the frontal zone
    by mid-to-late afternoon which should result in deeper, more robust
    updrafts. In addition, stronger mid-level flow will start to
    overspread the warm sector, promoting stronger deep-layer shear.
    Supercells are anticipated from southeast Arkansas to southwest
    Tennessee by this time with a threat for all severe weather hazards
    including the potential for a few strong (EF2+) tornadoes. However,
    this window of more discrete storm mode will likely be fairly
    limited as the cold front starts to surge east around 00Z and a
    squall line develops. The environment ahead of this squall line will
    remain favorable for severe wind gusts and QLCS tornadoes through
    the evening. Eventually this squall line will encounter weaker
    instability across central/eastern Tennessee and Alabama and the
    severe weather threat will likely start to wane.

    One exception may be across far southeast Mississippi, southern
    Alabama, and into the Florida Panhandle. After 06Z, some influence
    of the approaching mid-level vorticity maximum could result in more
    robust convection across this region where greater instability will
    remain. The low-level jet is also forecast to strengthen across the
    region during this timeframe with STP values peaking perhaps around
    2 to 3. 12Z CAM guidance suggests the potential for some pre-frontal development late in the period, but they are not overly strong at
    this time. If more robust pre-frontal storms become likely, in
    addition to the QLCS threat associated with the squall line, greater
    tornado probabilities could be needed across this area.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PORTIONS
    OF THE SOUTHEAST AND MID-ATLANTIC...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated strong wind gusts are possible on Sunday, mainly from late
    morning through the afternoon, across portions of the Southeast and Mid-Atlantic.

    ...Southeast to the Mid-Atlantic...

    Convection will be ongoing Sunday morning ahead of an
    eastward-advancing cold front from the FL Panhandle to the western
    Carolinas. This line of storms could produce strong gusts and
    perhaps a tornado across the FL Panhandle/north FL into southern GA
    where mid-60s F dewpoints are forecast amid strong vertical shear.
    However, large-scale ascent associated with an upper trough shifting
    east across the eastern U.S. will gradually become displaced to the
    north with time. Nevertheless, isolated severe potential is expected
    until the front moves offshore the GA coast by 21z.

    Further north into the Carolinas and portions of Delmarva vicinity,
    severe potential is somewhat more uncertain. Boundary-layer moisture
    will remain more limited (upper 50s to low 60s F) and instability
    will be quite weak due to poor lapse rates. However, strong
    large-scale ascent, frontal forcing, and intense south/southwesterly
    flow from around 925mb upward, will likely lend some support to
    strong gusts, even with weak convection that may produce little
    lightning. While poor thermodynamics may limit a more robust severe thunderstorm scenario, will maintain a Marginal risk given intense
    background flow fields. Severe thunderstorm potential should end by
    21-00z as the cold front pushes offshore.

    limit instability. Furthermore, large-scale ascent will be nebulous
    while deep-layer flow remains parallel to the boundary. As such,
    limited opportunity for thunderstorm activity is expected.

    in the period from the Edwards Plateau into northeast Texas. As
    scattered showers develop overnight Monday, a few embedded
    thunderstorms may occur given the weak elevated buoyancy present.
    Though shear will be strong, the poor thermodynamic environment will

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM PORTIONS OF SOUTHEASTERN TEXAS EASTWARD ACROSS SOUTHERN LOUISIANA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A couple of strong to severe thunderstorms are expected to evolve
    across southeast Texas and portions of southern Louisiana, mainly
    Tuesday evening and into the overnight hours.

    ...Synopsis...
    A mid-/upper-level short-wave trough will continue digging
    southeastward across the Four Corners states during the day Tuesday,
    before arcing more eastward into the across the southern Plains
    overnight.

    As this system advances, weak/gradual surface wave development is
    expected along the primary baroclinic zone across Texas during the
    day. With time, as the wave shifts eastward to the Texas Coastal
    Plain by evening, a southward surge of Arctic air will occur in its
    wake. Overnight, this wave should continue eastward roughly along
    the western Gulf Coast, reaching the vicinity of the mouth of the
    Mississippi by 12Z Wednesday. By this time, the trailing cold front
    will likely have reached the western Gulf, with cold air penetrating
    south of the Rio Grande into northern Mexico.

    ...Southeastern Texas eastward across southern Louisiana...
    A broad zone of low-level theta-e advection is expected across all
    but western portions of the southern Plains at the start of the
    period, shifting gradually eastward across the Sabine and Lower
    Mississippi Valleys, and reaching central Gulf Coast and eventually
    the Southeast states overnight.

    As the relatively warm/moist air spreads northward atop a
    still-cool/stable boundary layer, elevated convection is forecast to
    gradually increase/expand across the eastern half of the southern
    Plains and into Arkansas/Louisiana through the day. By late
    afternoon/early evening, some convection will likely have deepened
    sufficiently to produce some lightning, with thunderstorm coverage
    then increasing and spreading eastward through the overnight hours
    in tandem with the advance of the aforementioned surface wave.

    With convection largely remaining elevated, severe potential will
    likely be relegated to marginal hail with a few of the strongest
    storms, largely evolving after sunset. Potential for
    near-surface-based storms will remain confined to southern portions
    of the MRGL risk area, where gusty winds may occur with one or two
    of the strongest storms. Any risk for a tornado will remain even
    more limited -- confined to coastal areas of southern Louisiana, and
    most likely after midnight.

    A weak surface low is forecast to be near far southeast LA at the
    beginning of the forecast period, with a trailing Arctic cold front
    extending southwest into the western Gulf. Isolated thunderstorms
    will likely be ongoing from southeast LA eastward along the central
    Gulf coast vicinity during the morning. Stronger convection will
    remain over the warmer Gulf waters as the cold front develops
    east/southeast through the day. Poor lapse rates and modest
    boundary-layer moisture ahead of the cold front will preclude much destabilization over land. A couple of thunderstorms may develop
    over the FL Peninsula during the late afternoon/early evening, but
    severe thunderstorms are not expected given the expected poor

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated thunderstorms are possible across portions of the coastal
    Southeast and Florida Peninsula on Wednesday, but organized severe
    storms are not currently expected.

    ...Coastal Southeast/Florida...
    The region will be glancingly influenced by cyclonic flow aloft and
    a lead low-amplitude shortwave trough spreading eastward toward the Appalachians and Carolinas. Semi-organized linear convection will
    likely be ongoing Wednesday morning near/ahead of a surface low and
    cold front near the middle Gulf Coast, with this convection/front
    expected to have shifted offshore by 12z Wednesday.

    This convection will probably generally persist east-southeastward
    during the day over the open waters of the northern/eastern Gulf.
    There is the possibility that some of this convection will reach and
    move inland across the west-central Florida, including the general
    Tampa Bay vicinity, during the afternoon. Cloud cover/poor lapse
    rates should tend to hinder destabilization inland, but a few
    stronger storms cannot be entirely discounted across the
    west-central Peninsula. The inland severe-weather potential
    currently appears sufficiently low to preclude wind/tornado
    probabilities, but this will be reevaluated into the Day 1 time
    frame.

    greater instability, and thus the best chance for marginal severe
    hail, will remain well offshore in the central Gulf. By Sunday
    evening, the surface low and associated surface front will move far
    enough southeast into the central Gulf to bring an end to
    thunderstorm activity by mid to late evening. These thunderstorms
    may approach the Florida coast by late in the period, but are
    expected to arrive after 12Z.

    Scattered thunderstorms are possible from the middle and upper Texas

    At least some risk of hail may eventually develop.

    ...Synopsis...
    Northwest flow with multiple mid-level shortwave troughs will be
    present across the CONUS on Saturday. One of these troughs will
    advance from the Southwest into the southern Plains. Low-level flow
    will strengthen across the western Gulf with increasing moisture and strengthening isentropic ascent.

    ...Southeast Texas and southern Louisiana...
    An increase in convection is expected along the Gulf Coast during
    the day Saturday and particularly into Saturday night. MUCAPE around
    500 J/kg and effective shear around 30-35 knots may result in a few
    stronger storms. CAPE heavily concentrated within the hail growth
    zone and a cool boundary layer will support the potential for some
    hail, but somewhat limited instability may limit the updraft
    acceleration needed for larger (1.00") hail. If greater instability
    appears more likely, a Marginal Risk may eventually be needed from
    southeast Texas and into coastal Louisiana.

    Sunday.

    ...Synopsis...
    Surface high pressure and associated static stability will remain in
    place across much of the CONUS tomorrow (Saturday), inhibiting
    thunderstorm development over most locales. One exception will be
    across eastern TX into LA and extreme southwest MS. Here, low-level warm-air/moisture advection will transpire atop a cool surface
    airmass as a mid-level trough ejects into the southern Plains from
    the Southern Rockies tomorrow afternoon/evening. Deep-layer ascent
    will increase through the period, with isolated to scattered
    thunderstorm development likely by late afternoon over Coastal TX,
    spreading north and east into LA with time. Buoyancy will be
    elevated, characterized by a few hundred J/kg MUCAPE constrained
    above 850 mb. While the anticipated large, elongated hodographs
    would promote enough deep-layer shear to support some hail growth in
    the stronger storms, buoyancy currently appears too scant to support
    an organized severe hail risk.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Thunderstorms are forecast across portions of southern Louisiana and
    immediate surrounding areas on Sunday. Additional isolated
    thunderstorms may occur in portions of coastal Oregon/Washington. No
    severe weather is expected.

    ...Synopsis...
    Cool and stable conditions at the surface will continue to prevail
    across the CONUS on Sunday. A shortwave trough moving southeastward
    through Texas will induce a weak surface low just south of the
    coastal plain regions. Greater moisture/buoyancy are still expected
    to remain offshore, however. Even so, weak elevated instability will
    exist in portions of southeast Texas into the lower Mississippi
    Valley. Scattered convection may produce lightning, particularly
    near the coast. In the Northwest, an initial compact shortwave will
    move ashore during the late afternoon into the evening. While
    lightning production will be minimal, a few stronger elevated storms
    could become deep enough for charge separation along the immediate
    coast.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A few thunderstorms are possible across South Florida and coastal Oregon/Washington on Monday. No severe thunderstorms are expected.

    ...Synopsis...
    A positively tilted trough will amplify as it moves from South Texas
    to the Florida Peninsula on Monday. As this occurs, the surface low
    already present over the Gulf will deepen somewhat during the day
    and eventually advance east across the Panhandle and into the
    western Atlantic by 12Z Tuesday. Farther west, a strong mid-level
    jet streak and associated strong surface low will approach the
    Pacific Northwest coast with a cold front advancing inland on Monday evening/Monday night.

    ...South Florida and the Florida Keys...
    A large MCS will likely be ongoing across the eastern Gulf at the
    beginning of the period with a some strong to potentially severe
    thunderstorms ongoing across the open water. However, this MCS will
    weaken as it moves east into lesser instability across and near the
    Florida Peninsula. Some guidance, most notably the 00Z HRRR,
    maintains greater instability across the Keys and far south Florida.
    This could result in an isolated damaging wind gust or even a
    localized tornado threat across south Florida. However, the majority
    of guidance keeps instability well offshore with the strongest
    storms even southwest of the Keys. If a greater instability solution
    does occur across south Florida, a Marginal risk may be needed in
    later outlooks, but the probability of that solution remains too low
    for probabilities at this time.

    ...Northwest...
    A very strong wind field will be present on Monday as a ~985 mb
    surface low moves northeast off the coast. Therefore, some stronger
    wind gusts may be possible with any convection in the region. Weak
    instability depicted by forecast soundings in the area would
    indicate a relatively low threat of convectively induced severe wind
    gusts. However, some convective enhancement of already strong
    synoptic flow may be possible, particularly along the coast.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A few thunderstorms are possible across South Florida and coastal Oregon/Washington on Monday. No severe thunderstorms are expected.

    ...Synopsis...
    A strong upper-level shortwave trough will move into the Northwest
    Monday afternoon/evening. A broad upper-level trough in the Gulf
    will sharpen as it approaches South Florida Monday evening. A
    nebulous surface low in the Gulf will accompany the upper trough.
    Diffuse surface boundaries in the eastern Gulf and South Florida
    will be the focus for thunderstorm activity.

    ...South Florida/Keys...
    A cluster of thunderstorms appears likely to be ongoing early Monday
    off the southwestern Florida coast and perhaps near the Keys. This
    activity will likely be east of the surface cold front and driven by
    weak low-level warm advection. Current forecast guidance suggests
    the greatest buoyancy will remain primarily over the Keys. Given the
    stronger southwesterly flow aloft, it is possible a stronger storm
    or two could develop. However, deep-layer shear will be parallel to
    this activity, mid-level height falls will be neutral until late in
    the period, and low-level wind fields will be rather weak. The
    overall potential for even marginally severe storms continues to be
    low. As stronger forcing arrives late, additional activity is
    possible along the surface front in western Florida. However, it is
    not clear if storms would be surface based or if buoyancy would be
    sufficient for a severe threat.

    ...Northwest...
    Strong wind fields will be in place across the region as a surface
    low deepens west of the Olympic Peninsula. A line of at least
    shallow, forced convection will impact portions of coastal
    Washington/Oregon. A few stronger convectively enhanced wind gusts
    are possible among the already strong synoptic flow. These gusts are
    most likely along the immediate coast. Given minimal buoyancy, it
    appears coverage of these convective gusts will be too isolated to
    warrant highlights.

    A mid-level shortwave trough will translate from the Northwest to
    the northern Plains on Tuesday and Tuesday night while another
    mid-level shortwave trough will move from the Great Lakes to the
    Northeast. Instability will be limited in both areas and therefore
    no thunderstorm activity is anticipated. A few thunderstorms may
    develop off the east coast of Florida but should quickly move away
    into the open Atlantic as the mid-level trough and surface low move
    east over the Gulf Stream. No thunderstorms are expected across the
    CONUS on Tuesday.

    A surface low will be present off the eastern Florida coast. The

    highlights. Elsewhere, upper-level shortwave troughs will progress

    A mid-level trough will amplify as it moves from the Upper Midwest
    into the Lower Great Lakes and Ohio Valley on Wednesday. A surface
    cold front will accompany this trough as it moves south through the
    day. Moisture will be mostly limited, but there may be enough for
    some weak instability from north Texas to the Ohio Valley. As
    isentropic ascent and convergence along the cold front intensify,
    isolated thunderstorms may develop during the afternoon. Any
    thunderstorm activity should be mostly diurnally driven as elevated
    instability will be minimal after sunset.

    ...Discussion...
    An upper trough is forecast to shift eastward across the eastern

    southeastward out of the Upper Midwest, across the Ohio Valley
    through the day, across the Appalachians during the evening, and
    then should reach the eastern seaboard by the end of the period.

    Cold air/steep lapse rates aloft accompanying the upper trough will
    provide modest CAPE, with background ascent supporting development
    of scattered showers. A few lightning flashes will be possible
    within the evolving convection; the thunder area is being expanded
    to include portions of the Mid and Upper Ohio Valley where a couple
    of weak, low-topped storms may develop near peak heating.

    Elsewhere, thunderstorms are not expected, with the eastern Pacific
    upper low expected to remain offshore through early Friday.

    ...Synopsis...
    Substantial offshore flow will exist along the East Coast and
    trailing into the northern Gulf of America on Friday, as a shortwave
    trough moves out the Northeast. Behind this feature, another wave
    will expand southeastward from the upper MS Valley across the Great
    Lakes and into the Northeast through Saturday morning. Low pressure
    will track across the Great Lakes in association with the developing
    upper trough, with a new surge of high pressure spreading south
    across the northern Plains/Upper MS Valley.

    West of this regime, a compact upper low will move eastward toward
    southern CA, providing increasing lift and cooling aloft, with
    isolated weak thunderstorm activity possible.

    ...Southern CA...
    As the upper low approaches, midlevel temperatures will cool,
    steepening lapse rates. Elevated instability may develop after 00Z
    north of the low where minimal moisture and lift will coexist.
    Forecast soundings suggest a few lightning flashes may result as

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    The risk for thunderstorms appears negligible across much of the
    U.S. Saturday through Saturday night.

    ...Discussion...
    Models indicate that an amplified split flow, characterized by
    generally high mid/upper heights, will be maintained across the
    eastern Pacific into western North America through this period.
    Within this regime, it appears that an initially slow moving
    mid-level low near the southern California/northern Baja coast will
    accelerate inland across the Southwest Saturday through Saturday
    night, as a more prominent short wave trough digs toward the
    northern and central California coast. However, there remains
    notable spread among the various model output concerning how rapidly
    the lead perturbation transitions to an open wave, and how soon a
    closed low develops within the trailing perturbation.

    Downstream, large-scale mid/upper troughing likely will be
    maintained across much of eastern North America, reinforced by a
    number of digging short wave perturbations, as far south as the
    northeastern Gulf Basin through Florida Peninsula. This is forecast
    to be accompanied by substantive further lower/mid-tropospheric
    drying across much of the northern and eastern Gulf Basin.

    In response to the evolving upstream pattern, a developing southerly
    return flow may contribute to some lower/mid-tropospheric moistening
    east of the Texas Big Bend toward deepening surface troughing to the
    lee of the southern Rockies. However, this is likely to be capped
    by relatively warm and dry layers farther aloft.

    Dry and/or stable conditions are expected to generally prevail
    across much of the remainder of the U.S., as well, with little
    appreciable risk for thunderstorm development.

    ...Southern Great Basin/Southwest...
    There remains sizable spread among the various model output
    concerning the track of the modest mid-level cold core of the inland
    advancing lead short wave trough. Given initially dry conditions,
    and limited moisture return as it progresses inland, latest guidance
    indicates only very weak destabilization beneath the coldest
    mid-level temperatures. Based on NAM/RAP forecast soundings, any
    convection which may become capable of producing lightning probably
    will need forcing augmented by the higher terrain. While a brief
    weak thunderstorm or two might not be out of the question across the
    higher terrain of northwestern Arizona late Saturday afternoon, NCEP
    SREF and HREF calibrated thunderstorm guidance currently suggest
    that 10 percent thunderstorm probabilities might be to high.

    On Saturday, a deep and compact upper low will move across southern

    Valley, maintaining stable conditions.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS LATE SUNDAY
    AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING ACROSS PARTS OF SOUTHWESTERN
    KANSAS...NORTHWESTERN OKLAHOMA AND ADJACENT PORTIONS OF THE TEXAS
    PANHANDLE....

    ...SUMMARY...
    An isolated strong to severe thunderstorm or two may impact parts of
    the central Great Plains late Sunday afternoon and early evening,
    posing some risk for severe hail and wind.

    ...Discussion...
    Downstream of an initially strong zonal jet across the mid-latitude
    Pacific, the westerlies are forecast to remain split, with
    relatively high mean mid-level heights across the eastern Pacific
    into western North America. The confluent eastern periphery of this
    regime is forecast to gradually spread east of the Mississippi
    Valley Sunday through Sunday night, in the wake of amplified,
    seasonably cold, large-scale mid-level troughing slowly progressing
    across and east of the Atlantic Seaboard.

    Within the flow emanating from the Pacific, models continue to
    indicate that one significant short wave perturbation will progress
    inland of the Pacific coast into the Great Basin and Southwest.
    This will be preceded by a more compact mid-level low, which is
    forecast to weaken while crossing the southern Rockies through south
    central Great Plains, within broader-scale flow trending more
    anticyclonic.

    As this occurs, in lower levels, models indicate that surface
    troughing will deepen across the central and southern high plains,
    in the wake of surface ridging shifting east of the Mississippi
    Valley through the Atlantic Seaboard. It appears that this will be
    accompanied by strengthening southerly return flow, mainly inland of
    a gradually modifying boundary layer across the western Gulf Basin.

    ...South Central Great Plains...
    Despite limited moisture return within lower/mid-levels, beneath
    relatively warm/dry layers farther aloft, models remain suggestive
    that destabilization will become sufficient to potentially support
    scattered thunderstorm development, aided by favorable large-scale
    ascent. It appears that this will be provided by the lead short
    wave perturbation emerging from the Southwest, though notable
    lingering spread among the various models concerning this feature
    continues to make timing and location somewhat uncertain. This may
    include at least attempts at convection rooted within a weakly
    unstable boundary-layer near the lee surface trough across the Texas
    Panhandle, western Oklahoma, southwestern Kansas vicinity late
    Sunday afternoon. Aided by strong deep-layer wind fields and shear,
    it might not be out the of the question that a cell or two could be
    accompanied by hail and gusty surface winds, which could briefly
    exceed severe limits late Sunday afternoon or early evening.

    ...Central California into Great Basin...
    Beneath stronger mid-level cooling and forcing for ascent forecast
    to overspread the region, destabilization, aided by daytime heating,
    probably will become sufficient for widely scattered weak
    thunderstorms Sunday afternoon and evening.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR THE EASTERN
    TEXAS PANHANDLE...WESTERN OKLAHOMA...PARTS OF SOUTHWEST KANSAS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated strong to severe storms are possible from western North
    Texas into northwest Oklahoma and adjacent southwest Kansas on
    Sunday. Large hail and strong/marginally severe winds are the
    primary hazards.

    ...Synopsis...
    A compact upper low currently in the lower Colorado Valley will
    eject into the southern High Plains by early afternoon on Sunday. A
    modest surface low will develop in response to this feature and will
    generally track through the Texas Panhandle into western/central
    Oklahoma. Moisture return on the western flank of the surface high
    to the east will be relatively weak. However, with 50s F dewpoints
    in portions of Central Texas, it is possible that mid/upper 40s F
    could return into the Texas Panhandle/western Oklahoma vicinity
    during the afternoon.

    ...Eastern Texas Panhandle into western Oklahoma Vicinity...
    With the approach of the compact shortwave trough, some elevated
    showers and embedded thunderstorms are possible Sunday morning. This
    activity will move northeastward and may persist into the early/mid
    afternoon in some areas. The primary severe risk will be associated
    with the surface low and whatever destabilization is able to occur
    in the wake of the early activity. As mentioned, moisture will be
    rather modest. Compensating for this, however, will be very cold
    temperatures aloft (-20 to -22 C in the core of the upper
    low/trough). At lest a narrow band of buoyancy is expected to
    develop in the eastern Texas Panhandle and far western Oklahoma. A
    strong mid-level jet on the southern/eastern flank of the upper
    trough will promote at least marginal supercell structures capable
    of large hail and strong/marginally severe winds. Storms are more
    likely to be elevated farther north into Kansas and east into
    central Oklahoma. Even so, small to marginally severe hail and
    isolated strong gusts would be possible in the strongest storms.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS LATE MONDAY
    EVENING INTO EARLY TUESDAY ACROSS MUCH OF CENTRAL INTO EASTERN OKLAHOMA..ADJACENT PORTIONS OF SOUTHERN KANSAS...AND WESTERN NORTH
    TEXAS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A rapidly developing line of thunderstorms probably will be
    accompanied by a risk for severe hail, damaging wind gusts and
    perhaps a tornado or two across parts of the southern Great Plains
    by Monday night.

    ...Discussion...
    In the wake of de-amplifying cold, mid/upper troughing shifting away
    from the Atlantic Seaboard, much of North America will be under the
    influence of split flow emanating from the Pacific through this
    period. This regime will remain characterized by relatively high
    mean mid-level heights, but with a couple of significant embedded
    short wave troughs. As one of these progresses across the eastern
    Pacific toward the Pacific coast, a more prominent downstream trough
    appears likely to cross the southern Rockies into the central and
    southern Great Plains by late Monday night.

    The lead trough likely will be comprised of at least a couple of
    notable smaller-scale perturbations, and the details concerning its
    evolution and motion have been varied in the model output. Spread
    remains within the latest model runs, but there appears better
    consensus concerning impacts on convective potential.

    Associated large-scale forcing for ascent is forecast to support
    strong surface cyclogenesis within deepening lee surface troughing,
    across parts of eastern Colorado into western Kansas late Monday
    through Monday night. This likely will be accompanied by
    intensifying southerly low-level wind fields (including 40-50+ kt
    around 850 mb) across much of the southern and central Great Plains
    through lower Missouri Valley, and a gradual increase in moisture
    off a still modifying boundary layer over the western Gulf Basin.

    ...Southern Great Plains...
    By Monday evening, models indicate that low-level moistening may
    include surface dew points increasing into/through the lower to mid
    60s F in a plume across central Texas through much of central
    Oklahoma and adjacent southern Kansas. By around 04/06Z, if not
    earlier, it now appears that destabilization beneath steepening lower/mid-tropospheric lapse rates may yield a narrow corridor of
    mixed-layer CAPE on the order of 500-1000 J/kg near the western edge
    of the moist plume. This probably will be aided by the leading edge
    of mid-level forcing for ascent and cooling, and contribute to the
    initiation of a narrow corridor of thunderstorm development across
    western into central Oklahoma and northwest Texas.

    In the presence of strengthening deep-layer wind fields and shear, a
    couple of supercells are possible before convection consolidates
    into an organizing line. This may be fairly quick, but still
    accompanied by the risk for severe hail, potentially damaging wind
    gusts and perhaps potential for a tornado or two. Stronger
    thunderstorm development probably will tend to develop
    south-southeastward into and across the I-35 corridor overnight,
    associated with the more moist/unstable inflow.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PARTS OF
    CENTRAL/EASTERN OKLAHOMA INTO NORTH TEXAS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A rapidly developing line of thunderstorms will bring the potential
    for damaging winds, a few tornadoes, and isolated large hail for
    parts of the southern Plains Monday night.

    ...Synopsis...
    Shortwave, upper-level ridging across the southern Plains will give
    way to a strong upper trough progressing eastward through the
    Southwest on Monday. The strongest mid-level height falls are
    expected to occur during the late evening/overnight period into
    Tuesday morning. As this trough approaches, a central High Plains
    surface low will deepen and evolve southeastward with time. A
    Pacific front will be the focus for thunderstorm development from central/eastern Kansas into the Hill Country/Central Texas.

    ...Oklahoma/Texas...
    A line of thunderstorms is expected to develop along the Pacific
    front late Monday night as strong mid-level ascent overspreads the
    region. The highly amplified/meridional mid/upper-level winds will
    promote a rapid transition to a linear storm mode. Strong deep-layer
    shear and steep mid-level lapse rates could lead to briefly higher
    potential for large hail from initial supercells, but the strong
    signal for a linear storm mode would suggest large hail will likely
    remain isolated. Strong low-level wind fields are expected along and
    ahead of this line of activity. With at least low 60s F dewpoints
    expected in parts central/eastern Oklahoma into North/Central Texas,
    storms will be near-surface based to surface based and capable of
    damaging wind gusts. Low-level hodographs will also be enlarged
    across the warm sector. The exact magnitude of the tornado threat is
    a bit uncertain given the linear storm mode as well as marginal
    low-level instability during the overnight. However, the strength of
    the low-level shear will be sufficient to at least conditionally
    support a few QLCS tornadoes. The eastern extent of the threat will
    be limited by decreasing buoyancy into far eastern
    Oklahoma/Arkansas. The southern edge of the activity also is not
    clear. However, storms on the southern flank may have a greater
    potential to produce large hail. Confidence in the location of this
    activity is too low to increase hail probabilities at this time.

    ...Eastern Kansas...
    How far north surface-based storms will occur remains in question.
    It appears that there is at least marginal potential for
    strong/damaging surface gusts near the surface low track in
    southeast Kansas. Isolated large hail is also possible. In northeast
    Kansas, there is a signal for convection to develop on the nose of
    the low-level jet in some guidance. These storms would likely be
    elevated and have limited potential for damaging winds. Steep
    mid-level lapse rates and adequate deep-layer shear would promote
    some large hail risk.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS TUESDAY INTO
    TUESDAY EVENING ACROSS SOUTHERN ARKANSAS...MUCH OF NORTHERN AND
    CENTRAL LOUISIANA AND CENTRAL/SOUTHERN MISSISSIPPI...

    ...SUMMARY...
    One or two organized lines or clusters of thunderstorms, and perhaps
    a few supercells, will pose a risk for damaging wind gusts, a few
    tornadoes and hail, primarily across parts of the lower Mississippi
    Valley into the Southeast, Tuesday through Tuesday night.

    ...Discussion...
    Model output remains varied concerning sub-synoptic developments
    into and through this period. However, better consensus is evident
    among the various model ensemble output concerning the large-scale
    pattern evolution across the eastern Pacific into North America.
    Within this regime, a significant upper trough, now inland of the
    Pacific coast, is forecast to progress east of the Great Plains
    through Mississippi Valley Tuesday through Tuesday night,
    accompanied by continuing strong cyclogenesis.

    Models generally indicate that the center of the evolving broad and
    deep surface cyclone will migrate from western Kansas through
    northern Illinois during this period. In the wake of the cyclone, a substantive cold front is forecast to surge southeastward across the
    southern Great Plains into northwestern Gulf coast and lower
    Mississippi Valley by 12Z Wednesday. This may be preceded by a more
    modest Pacific cold front across the southern Great Plains at the
    outset of the period, and potentially cool/dry air across/east of
    the lower Mississippi Valley, associated with a surface ridge
    shifting off the Atlantic Seaboard, in the wake of de-amplifying
    large-scale mid/upper troughing.

    A southerly return flow off a modifying boundary-layer over the
    western Gulf Basin is likely to be ongoing early Tuesday across
    eastern Texas toward the lower Missouri Valley, before shifting
    eastward across and east of the lower Mississippi Valley. In
    response to the evolution and progression of the cyclone, models
    suggest that better low-level moisture return from the Gulf will
    probably become cut off across the eastern Gulf Coast region by late
    Tuesday night.

    Across and northeast of a low-level baroclinic zone, initially
    extending across the Ark-La-Tex vicinity southeastward through
    southern portions of the lower Mississippi Valley, the Gulf moisture
    return will initially become elevated above a residual cool/stable surface-based layer. However, the NAM and Rapid Refresh output
    still suggest that this boundary will become more diffuse while
    developing eastward through the day.

    Regardless, most model output remains suggestive that elevated
    and/or closer to surface-based destabilization, and large-scale
    ascent associated with the cyclone, will become sufficient to
    support extensive convective development across the interior U.S.
    Tuesday through Tuesday night, and a fairly broad area with at least
    a conditional risk for severe storms.

    ...Lower Mississippi Valley into Southeast...
    The remnant, though becoming increasingly diffuse, baroclinic zone
    across the lower Mississippi Valley, might become the primary
    initial focus for intense thunderstorm development during this
    period. As the environment destabilizes more rapidly to the
    southwest of this boundary, and low-level warm advection along it
    contributes to large-scale ascent accompanying a short wave
    perturbation overspreading the lower Mississippi Valley, conditions
    may become conducive to the evolution of an organizing storm
    cluster. This may be preceded by a couple of discrete supercells.

    Given the strength of the deep-layer mean wind fields, which may
    include a belt of south-southwesterly flow in the 850-500 mb layer
    on the order of 60-100 kt overspreading Louisiana and Mississippi
    during the day, there appears at least conditional potential for
    supercells capable of producing strong tornadoes. With the
    strongest wind fields generally forecast in the inflow layer of the
    convective development, the extent of the damaging wind potential
    remains more unclear, particularly with any evolving cluster
    developing along/above a maturing cold pool

    Much will also depend on the extent to which near-surface
    thermodynamic profiles are able to destabilize in advance of the
    large-scale forcing. Both the latest Rapid Refresh and NAM forecast
    soundings suggest this may be an issue, and potential mitigating
    factor with regard to the severe wind and tornado potential,
    particularly overnight east of the lower Mississippi Valley into the
    eastern Gulf Coast states.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PARTS OF
    SOUTHEAST OK...NORTHEAST TX...SOUTHERN AR...CENTRAL/NORTHERN LA...CENTRAL/SOUTHERN MS...SOUTHWEST AL...AND THE WESTERN FL
    PANHANDLE...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms with a threat of tornadoes, damaging winds, and
    isolated hail are possible on Tuesday from eastern portions of the
    southern Plains into the lower Mississippi Valley and Southeast. A
    couple strong tornadoes will be possible.

    ...Synopsis...
    A strong and deep mid/upper-level shortwave trough and embedded
    midlevel cyclone will move eastward from the central/southern Great
    Plains into the Mississippi Valley on Tuesday. A deepening surface
    cyclone is forecast to move eastward across KS through the day, and
    then northeastward across parts of MO/IL Tuesday night. Relatively
    modest low-level moisture (with dewpoints in the 40s/low 50s F) will
    stream northward within the warm sector of this cyclone into parts
    of the Midwest, with richer moisture (60s F dewpoints) remaining
    confined to parts of the lower Mississippi Valley and Southeast.

    ...ArkLaTex region into the Lower Mississippi Valley and
    Southeast...
    Organized convection will likely be ongoing at the start of the
    forecast period Tuesday morning across parts of eastern OK/TX and
    perhaps southeast KS. The extent to which the morning convection
    will become surface-based remains somewhat uncertain, but very
    strong low-level and deep-layer shear and sufficient instability
    will support a conditional risk of all severe hazards with the
    early-day storms as they approach the ArkLaTex region.

    A strongly sheared QLCS is expected to approach the lower
    Mississippi Valley region by early afternoon. The magnitude of the
    severe threat with this QLCS, as well as the potential for preceding supercells, will be determined by the extent to which low-level
    moistening can keep pace with the primary convective line. Very
    strong flow in the lowest 3 km and 0-1 km SRH increasing above 400
    m2/s2 will support a threat of potentially widespread damaging winds
    and line-embedded tornadoes wherever the organized QLCS can remain near-surface-based. The potential for longer-lived supercells is
    more uncertain, but cannot be ruled out immediately ahead of the
    QLCS, and also where large-scale ascent is somewhat weaker in closer
    proximity to the Gulf Coast. Any persistent discrete or embedded
    supercells could pose a threat of a strong tornado within the very
    strongly sheared environment.

    The northern/eastern extent of organized severe potential into
    Tuesday night will be constrained by increasingly prohibitive
    low-level stability. However, given the strength of the flow fields,
    any organized convection that persists into late Tuesday and early
    Wednesday could pose some risk of damaging wind, with some tornado
    threat potentially persisting in closer proximity to the Gulf Coast.


    ...Parts of eastern Kansas into Missouri...
    A few strong elevated storms could persist into Tuesday morning
    across parts of eastern KS into MO, potentially posing some threat
    of hail and locally gusty winds. The extent of diurnal heating in
    the wake of morning convection remains uncertain, but some
    surface-based destabilization will be possible during the afternoon
    as the midlevel cyclone and attendant cold temperatures aloft move
    over the region. If sufficient heating/destabilization can occur,
    then robust storm development will be possible in the vicinity of
    the eastward-moving cyclone, posing a risk of isolated hail, strong
    gusts, and possibly a tornado.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WEDNESDAY
    ACROSS PARTS OF EASTERN SOUTH CAROLINA...EASTERN NORTH CAROLINA AND SOUTHEASTERN VIRGINIA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    An intensifying line of thunderstorms may become capable of
    producing strong, damaging wind gusts and a few tornadoes as it
    overspreads the eastern Carolinas and southeastern Virginia mid
    Wednesday morning through Wednesday afternoon.

    ...Discussion...
    The center of a broad and deep, occluding surface cyclone still
    appears likely to migrate across the lower Great Lakes region into
    southwestern Quebec during this period. Associated strong lower/mid-tropospheric wind fields are likely to impact a broad area
    east of the Rockies through the Atlantic Seaboard, initially
    including south-southwesterly flow on the order of 50-70+ kt around
    850 mb, east of deepening surface troughing to the lee of the Blue
    Ridge. It appears that this jet core will gradually shift eastward
    into and across the Mid Atlantic coast by late afternoon, well in
    advance of the primary cold front, which might not advance east of
    the Appalachians until Wednesday evening.

    Guidance continues to indicate that more the substantive low-level
    moisture return off a modifying Gulf boundary layer will become cut
    off across the northeastern Gulf vicinity by early Wednesday.
    However, it remains suggestive that a developing return flow off the
    Atlantic will augment moistening across and inland the Carolina
    coast.

    Models also continue to indicate that destabilization through much
    of the warm sector may only become supportive of weak CAPE on the
    order of 500 J/kg or less. However, given the strength of the wind
    fields, and areas of stronger forcing for ascent, there appears at
    least a conditional risk for severe thunderstorm activity across a
    broad area.

    ...Southern Mid Atlantic...
    It still appears that a remnant convective band emerging from the
    eastern Gulf States will be maintained, with potential for
    substantive intensification as it advances across the Carolina
    Piedmont through Carolina and southeastern Virginia coastal plain
    Wednesday morning into afternoon. Although forecast soundings
    continue to indicate that lower/mid-tropospheric lapse rates will
    not become particularly steep ahead of this convection, it does
    appear that boundary-layer warming and moistening (including surface
    dew points increasing into the lower 60s) will contribute to
    near-surface thermodynamic profiles conducive to downward momentum
    transport. Given the rather large and clockwise curved low-level
    hodographs, a few tornadoes (perhaps a strong tornado or two) are
    possible, in additional to scattered straight-line wind gusts in
    excess of 65 kt.

    ...Allegheny Plateau/Mid Atlantic...
    Early period convective precipitation may contribute to
    boundary-layer moistening, prior to the onset of increasing
    insolation beneath a dry slot overspreading the region during the
    day. Followed by the onset of stronger cooling aloft, model
    forecast soundings indicate the development of thermodynamic
    profiles characterized by modest conditional and convective
    instability, in the presence of strong deep-layer shear. Guidance
    has been varied concerning the location and extent of scattered
    pre-frontal thunderstorm development within this regime, but the
    environment is likely to become at least marginally conducive to
    scattered organized convection, including supercells.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WEDNESDAY
    ACROSS PARTS OF EASTERN SOUTH CAROLINA...EASTERN NORTH
    CAROLINA...AND SOUTHEASTERN VIRGINIA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms capable of producing scattered damaging-wind
    gusts and a few tornadoes are possible Wednesday across parts of the
    eastern Carolinas into southeast Virginia. Other strong to severe
    storms may occur across parts of Florida and east Georgia, and also
    from the Allegheny Plateau into the Mid Atlantic.

    ...Synopsis...
    A strong and deep mid/upper-level shortwave trough will move across
    the eastern CONUS Wednesday, as an intense occluding cyclone (with
    central pressure in the 980-985 mb range) moves northeastward from
    central IL toward the lower Great Lakes region and eventually into
    southwestern Quebec.

    While some moistening will occur within the warm sector of the
    cyclone, guidance continues to indicate that destabilization may
    only become supportive of weak CAPE on the order of 500 J/kg or
    less. However, given the intense wind fields and areas of stronger
    ascent, at least a conditional risk for severe thunderstorms is
    expected across a broad area.

    ...Southern Mid Atlantic into the Carolinas and GA/FL...
    A remnant convective band and potential QLCS will likely be ongoing
    Wednesday morning. Moistening and modest destabilization will
    support some intensification as this band moves eastward through the
    day across the Carolina Piedmont region toward the
    Carolina/southeast VA coastal plain. Intense wind fields will
    support a threat of at least scattered damaging winds with these
    storms as they move eastward through the day. In addition, large and clockwise-curved hodographs (with 0-1 km SRH near/above 300 m2/s2)
    will support some tornado potential. A strong tornado will be
    possible, especially if any embedded supercell structures can be
    sustained.

    Other strong to potentially severe storms will be possible from
    eastern GA into the FL Peninsula, primarily early in the day before
    convection moves offshore.

    ...Allegheny Plateau into the northern Mid Atlantic...
    Low-level moistening beneath increasingly prominent midlevel cooling
    and drying will support modest destabilization from parts of the
    Allegheny Plateau into the northern Mid Atlantic region. While
    diurnal convection that develops within this regime may remain
    relatively low-topped, effective shear will remain supportive of
    organized storms, including potential for a couple supercells and/or
    organized line segments. Damaging winds, isolated hail, and possibly
    a tornado or two could accompany the strongest storms across this
    region, especially during the afternoon and early evening.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered thunderstorm activity is possible across parts of central
    California and the Great Basin into the Southern Rockies Thursday
    into Thursday evening, but the risk for severe thunderstorms appears
    neglible.

    ...Discussion...
    The center of a broad and deep, occluding cyclone is forecast to
    progress across the lower Great Lakes into southwestern Quebec by
    12Z Thursday, when a significant trailing cold front may be offshore
    all the Atlantic Seaboard but perhaps eastern portions of New
    England. It appears that the southwestern flank of this front will
    be in the process of stalling and weakening across the western Gulf
    Basin, and models indicate that the boundary layer may undergo
    substantive modification across the southwestern Gulf toward the
    lower Texas coast vicinity late Thursday through Thursday night.
    This may be accompanied by weak inland boundary-layer moisture
    return beneath warm and capping elevated mixed-layer air across the
    southern Great Plains, as renewed cyclogenesis occurs to the lee of
    the Colorado Rockies.

    Within and beneath a generally confluent mid-level regime to the
    east of the Rockies, the cyclone, and supporting mid-level short
    wave perturbation emerging from larger-scale troughing advancing
    inland of the Pacific coast, are likely to weaken while progressing
    eastward through the central Great Plains Thursday night into early
    Friday.

    Trailing the lead short wave, models indicate that a more prominent
    short wave trough will dig inland across central/southern
    California, and into the lower Colorado Valley by 12Z Friday.

    ...Central California through southern Great Basin/Rockies...
    A swath of stronger mid-level cooling overspreading the region in
    association with the short wave developments is likely to contribute
    to weak destabilization with daytime heating. It appears that this
    will become sufficient to support scattered weak afternoon and
    evening thunderstorm activity, aided by areas of dynamic and
    orographic forcing for ascent.

    ...Cape Cod vicinity...
    Forecast soundings, perhaps most notably the NAM, suggest that lift
    associated with frontal forcing and/or pre-frontal low-level warm
    advection may still be contributing to elevated convective
    development capable of producing lightning around 12Z Thursday,
    before spreading away from the coast by mid/late morning.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated to widely scattered thunderstorms are possible from parts
    of central California into the southern and eastern Great Basin on
    Thursday. Severe weather is not expected.

    ...Synopsis...
    An amplified upper trough will move off the eastern U.S. coast.
    Broadly cyclonic flow across the West will feature two embedded
    shortwave troughs. One will pivot through the Southwest with the
    other digging southwestward along the central/southern California
    coast. A broad surface low in the Intermountain West will evolve
    eastward and deepen within the central Plains by Friday morning.

    Cold temperatures aloft will support isolated convection across
    portions of central California. A surface boundary within the Great
    Basin will also serve as another focus for isolated to widely
    scattered thunderstorms, particularly where surface heating occurs.
    Very limited buoyancy will generally preclude any severe weather
    potential with any of this activity.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A couple of thunderstorms appear possible across parts of east
    central Arizona into adjacent portions of western New Mexico on
    Friday, and across parts of central Texas late Friday night, but the
    risk for severe weather appears negligible.

    ...Discussion...
    Models indicate that the center of a broad and deep, occluded
    cyclone will be in the process of weakening across central Quebec,
    with secondary surface cyclogenesis underway near the Canadian
    Maritimes by early Friday. The new cyclone center is then generally
    forecast to migrate northward toward Newfoundland and Labrador
    through 12Z Saturday. In its wake, it appears that cyclonic
    mid-level flow characterized by seasonably low heights will linger
    across the Great Lakes vicinity through Northeast.

    Upstream, as a significant short wave trough and embedded mid-level
    low turn eastward toward the southern Rockies, within an amplified
    belt of westerlies emerging from the mid-latitude Pacific, broad
    downstream ridging is forecast to be maintained across the
    subtropical into southern mid-latitudes, with mid-level flow
    becoming increasing confluent across and east of the central Great
    Plains.

    A lead short wave perturbation emerging from the Intermountain West
    is likely to become increasingly sheared as it accelerates into and
    through the confluent regime, accompanied by a weakening surface low transitioning to a frontal wave across the central Great Plains
    through middle Mississippi and Ohio Valleys. Models indicate that
    the trailing cold front may advance through the Cumberland
    Plateau, Mid South and south central Great Plains by late Friday
    night, with a new wave possibly developing along it across parts of
    central Texas toward the end of the period.

    Ahead of the front, a deepening moist boundary-layer may develop
    across the north central Gulf toward adjacent coastal areas.
    However, models indicate that this will remain capped by warm, dry
    air in the lower/mid-troposphere.

    ...Arizona into New Mexico...
    A generally cold boundary layer with limited moisture still seems
    likely to minimize the potential for thunderstorm development
    beneath the mid-level cold pool overspreading the Great Basin into
    Four Corners states Friday through Friday night. However, the
    latest RAP Refresh and High Resolution Ensemble output suggests that thermodynamic profiles might become marginally conducive to
    convection capable of producing lightning by late Friday night,
    near/north of the east central Arizona Mogollon Rim vicinity into
    parts of the Colorado Plateau.

    ...Central into northeast Texas...
    Low-level moistening and forcing for ascent along the frontal zone
    downstream of the developing wave will contribute to weak elevated destabilization by late Friday night. Erosion of mid-level
    inhibition may become sufficient to support the initiation of
    scattered thunderstorms, either shortly before or not long after 12Z
    Saturday.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated to widely scattered storms are possible in east-central
    Arizona into west-central New Mexico Friday afternoon/evening.
    Additional storms are possible late Friday night in parts of
    North/Central Texas. Severe weather potential currently appears low.

    ...Synopsis...
    Low-amplitude ridging will be present across the southern Plains and
    Southeast through Friday night. An upper trough in the lower
    Colorado Valley will move eastward through the Southwest and is
    expected to reach the southern High Plains by Saturday morning. A
    surface low, initially in Kansas, will move into the lower Ohio
    Valley, weakening with time. A cold front will push southward into
    Central Texas. A weak frontal cyclone will develop along the
    boundary as the Southwestern trough approaches.

    ...Parts of Central/North Texas...
    Late Friday night into Saturday, storm development is possible along
    and north of the surface cold front. Forcing for ascent will remain
    rather modest and most forecast soundings have some hints of
    mid-level warm air inhibiting development. CAM solutions
    consequently show isolated storms, but vary spatially in terms of
    where storms may initiate. Given the strong southwesterly flow aloft
    and modest elevated buoyancy, the strongest storms could produce at
    least small hail.

    ...Arizona/New Mexico...
    Cold temperatures aloft beneath the upper trough will promote
    isolated to perhaps widely scattered thunderstorms in portions of
    east-central Arizona and west-central New Mexico. With cloud cover
    and precipitation expected within the region, buoyancy and storm
    intensity should remain low.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM EAST TEXAS
    TO THE CENTRAL GULF COAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated to widely scattered strong to severe thunderstorms may
    occur from portions of East Texas into the Central Gulf Coast region
    on Saturday. Large hail is the primary hazard with the strongest
    storms.

    ...East Texas to Central Gulf Coast Vicinity...

    An upper low and attendant trough over the Southwest Saturday
    morning will shift east toward the southeast Plains/Sabine Valley
    vicinity by Sunday morning. Fast southwesterly mid/upper flow will
    already be in place from the southern Plains to the Southeast,
    though a stronger jet streak will impinge on the Lower MS Valley
    late in the period as stronger height falls spread east ahead of the approaching upper trough. At the surface, a weak low over
    north-central TX will develop east near/just south of the I-20
    corridor into southern AL through Sunday morning. A warm front will
    extend west to east along this corridor, and southerly low-level
    flow will support mid 60s F dewpoints south of this boundary.

    Convection will likely be ongoing or developing within the first
    couple hours of the forecast period Saturday morning across TX.
    Additional convection also is likely along the warm front near the
    central Gulf coast from LA to southern AL. Most convection is
    forecast to be elevated in this persistent warm advection regime.
    Steep midlevel lapse rates will support elevated instability, with
    forecast soundings indicating MUCAPE to 1500 J/kg possible.
    Furthermore, forecast hodographs are elongated/straight above 2-3 km
    amid 35+ kt effective shear magnitudes. This should result in
    organized cells capable of isolated large hail. If any storms can
    become surface-based near the warm front, some tornado potential
    will exist given vertically veering wind profiles/modestly enlarged
    low-level hodographs.

    Isolated to widely scattered strong to severe thunderstorms may
    occur from portions of East Texas into the Central Gulf Coast region
    on Saturday. Large hail is the primary hazard with the strongest
    storms.

    ...Synopsis...
    An upper-level trough will eject into the southern Plains during the
    afternoon on Saturday. This feature will progress eastward into
    parts of the lower Mississippi Valley late Saturday into Sunday
    morning. A strong mid-level jet will accompany this trough. At the
    surface, a cold front will be draped across the Mid-South/Southeast
    into North Texas. A weak surface low will develop along the front in Central/East Texas and move into lower Mississippi Valley during the
    evening.

    ...North Texas...
    Convection will likely be ongoing early Saturday morning. Forecast
    soundings indicate sufficient elevated buoyancy, mid-level lapse
    rates, and effective shear to support large hail for an hour or two. Thereafter, buoyancy should quickly decrease.

    ...East Texas into lower Mississippi Valley and western Florida
    Panhandle...
    The cold front may make some southward progress early in the period,
    but is generally expected to stall somewhere in the Gulf Coast
    vicinity. This boundary will demarcate the where the greatest severe
    potential will be as mid/upper 60s F dewpoints are expected south
    of the boundary. While some convection may be ongoing along the
    boundary early in the period, models suggest potential for
    additional development by the evening as stronger mid-level ascent
    approaches. Areas along and south of the cold front will have the
    greatest potential for near-surface to surface based storms. Steep
    mid-level lapse rates and strong deep-layer shear will support a
    threat for large hail, primarily. Depending on the degree of
    surface-based destabilization that occurs, and isolated strong wind
    gusts or perhaps a tornado could also occur. Low-level wind fields
    will not be overly strong, but should be sufficient for those
    conditional risks.

    The overall severe threat will gradually decrease with northern
    extent. However, there will be some elevated buoyancy (perhaps
    500-750 J/kg MUCAPE) north of the boundary along with strong
    deep-layer shear. Small to marginally severe hail could occur with
    the strongest storms.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated strong to severe thunderstorms are possible on Sunday from
    parts of the Florida Panhandle into southern Georgia and North
    Florida.

    ...FL Panhandle/Northern FL into Southern GA...

    A surface warm front is forecast to be draped across southern AL
    toward the FL/GA state line on Sunday. Meanwhile, a weak surface low
    will be positioned over far southern MS/AL with a trailing cold
    front extending into the western Gulf. A southwesterly low-level jet
    around 30-40 kt at 850 mb will maintain a warm advection regime
    ahead of the low and cold front, and areas of thunderstorms will
    likely be ongoing in the vicinity of the warm front Sunday morning. Destabilization will likely be tempered by early convection, and
    storms may mostly be elevated. However, some risk of marginal hail
    or strong gusts will accompany stronger storms during the morning.

    By afternoon, additional thunderstorms may develop across north FL
    ahead of the cold front. This activity may have a better chance to
    become surface-based. Thunderstorm clusters or an isolated supercell
    may produce strong to locally severe gusts. Furthermore, if
    convection can become surface-based and take advantage of somewhat
    enhanced low-level shear in the vicinity of the warm front, a risk
    for a tornado or two is possible.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated strong to severe thunderstorms are possible on Sunday from
    parts of the Florida Panhandle into southern Georgia and North
    Florida.

    ...Synopsis...
    An upper low progged to lie near the Arklatex region early in the
    period will steadily eastward, crossing lower Mississippi Valley
    area during the evening, and then advancing across the central Gulf
    Coast States with time.

    As the upper system advances, a weak surface frontal wave over the
    southeastern Louisiana vicinity will move eastward with time along
    the remnant, west-to-east baroclinic zone extending eastward across
    the southern Georgia/northern Florida vicinity. By the end of the
    period, the low is forecast to redevelop off the southeastern U.S.
    coast.

    ...Florida Panhandle eastward across southern Georgia and northern
    Florida...
    Thunderstorms are expected to be ongoing in the vicinity of a
    west-to-east baroclinic zone lying across the area, with a couple of stronger/organized storms potentially embedded within the broader
    area of precipitation.

    As the ongoing storms move eastward/offshore through the day, a new
    round of convective development is forecast to begin by early
    afternoon, ahead of the advancing upper system. However, weak
    instability is forecast to persist through the period, which will
    limit overall severe risk. With that said, amply strong/veering
    flow with height will reside across the region, increasing overnight
    in tandem with the progression of the upper trough. As such,
    local/limited risk for marginal hail, gusty/damaging winds, or even
    a brief tornado will be possible, with a couple of the
    stronger/longer-lived updrafts.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated thunderstorms are possible across portions of the Florida
    Peninsula and parts of the Carolinas on Monday. Severe storms are
    not expected.

    ...Synopsis...

    An upper low over AL Monday morning will shift east, moving offshore
    over the Gulf Stream by evening. At the surface, a low near the GA
    coast will deepen as it shifts northeast over the Atlantic, and a
    trailing cold front will develop southward across the FL Peninsula.
    Isolated thunderstorms may be ongoing near the cold front Monday
    morning and continue sporadically into the afternoon with southward
    extent. Deep-layer flow will be moderately strong, but mostly
    parallel to the cold front. Meanwhile, warm midlevel temperatures
    across FL will result in modest midlevel lapse rates, limiting
    instability (generally less than 750 J/kg MLCAPE). This will largely
    limit severe potential, though a brief strong storm or two could
    produce gusty winds.

    Further north, isolated thunderstorms are possible across parts of
    the Carolinas closer to the surface and upper low. Cold temperatures
    aloft will result in steep midlevel lapse rates and MUCAPE around
    200-400 J/kg. Severe storms are not expected but a couple instances
    of small hail will be possible with mainly elevated convection
    through the afternoon.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered thunderstorms are possible across portions of the Florida
    Peninsula and parts of the Carolinas Monday. Severe storms are
    unlikely.

    ...Synopsis...
    Split mid-level flow is forecast over the CONUS Monday. An upper low
    moving over the northern Gulf Coast and offshore will be the primary
    feature of interest for convection, as broad-scale ridging persists
    over the central US. Beneath the upper low, a surface cyclone is
    forecast to steadily intensify as it moves offshore over southern
    South Carolina early in the day. Trailing the low, a cold front will
    move eastward over the lower FL Peninsula.

    ...Coastal Carolinas...
    As the upper trough moves offshore, mid-level ascent will overspread
    the strong coastal front over the eastern Carolinas. In response,
    the initially broad surface low will deepen as it moves into the
    Atlantic. Scattered convection is likely to be ongoing through the
    morning within a broader area of precipitation, and should persist
    through much of the day, as isentropic ascent intensifies ahead of
    the deepening coastal low. Weak elevated buoyancy and moderate to
    strong mid-level flow could support a few stronger storms capable of
    an isolated damaging gust or hail. However, the surface-based warm
    sector should remain well offshore, keeping the probability for
    severe storms low.

    ...Florida Peninsula...
    Additional scattered storms are likely to be ongoing along and ahead
    of the cold front over parts of the FL Peninsula early Monday. The
    front is forecast to move quickly eastward, as moderately strong
    deep-layer flow overspreads a narrow warm sector. The weakening
    upper low moving offshore will favor warm midlevel temperatures,
    resulting in only modest mid-level lapse rates and buoyancy. Given
    the relatively poor timing with the diurnal cycle, limited buoyancy
    and modest front-parallel shear, severe potential is low. However, a
    brief strong storm or two could produce damaging gusts across the
    eastern FL coast. Here, more diurnal heating is possible before the
    front moves offshore by early afternoon.

    Isolated thunderstorms are possible across far southwest California

    ...Synopsis...

    Generally low-amplitude westerly mid/upper flow will overspread the
    Plains and Southeast ahead of a shortwave upper trough moving into
    the Southwest. At the surface, a prior cold frontal passage deep
    into the Gulf and high pressure over the eastern Gulf/Southeast will
    result in a dearth of boundary layer moisture east of the Rockies
    for much of the period. Further west, a surface low offshore
    southern CA will weaken as it moves east over southern CA during the afternoon/evening. Cool temperatures aloft beneath the upper trough
    will support steep lapse rates and weak instability (MUCAPE
    generally less than 300 J/kg). Isolated thunderstorms will be
    possible offshore and may persist inland across a small part of
    southwest CA.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated thunderstorms are possible across far southwest California
    and southern/central Arizona Tuesday afternoon/evening. Severe
    storms are not expected.

    ...Synopsis...
    A closed upper low, off the coast of southern California Tuesday
    morning, will slowly drift inland across southern California and
    become more of an open wave across southern Arizona by the end of
    the period. The moisture stream ahead of this trough has some
    tropical connection which will bring near 1 inch PWAT values to
    coastal southern California and southern Arizona. This low-level
    moisture, combined with cooling temperatures aloft, will provide an
    environment favorable for scattered thunderstorms Tuesday
    afternoon/evening. Instability should be generally weak (250-500
    J/kg MLCAPE) but greatest beneath the upper low, where mid-level
    flow will also be weak. Therefore, thunderstorm activity should be
    most favored where shear is weakest and thus, the severe weather
    threat should remain minimal. Any marginal severe weather threat
    which may be present will likely be farther south across northern
    Mexico beneath the stronger mid-level flow.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PORTIONS OF
    SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA...NORTHEAST TEXAS...WESTERN ARKANSAS...AND
    EXTREME NORTHWEST LOUISIANA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated strong to severe thunderstorms are possible from eastern
    Texas into southeast Oklahoma, southern Arkansas, northern
    Louisiana, and western Mississippi late Wednesday afternoon and
    evening.

    ...Southeast OK/ArkLaTex into western MS...

    An upper shortwave trough will quickly progress east from the
    southern Rockies/northern Mexico into the southern Plains by
    afternoon, and the South by Thursday morning. The stronger jet
    streak will remain over central/southeast TX before shifting to the
    central Gulf coast overnight. Nevertheless, the left exit region of
    the broader 50-60 kt southwesterly midlevel jet will overspread the
    ArkLaTex region during the afternoon/evening. Meanwhile, a modest
    surface low will move into central OK by late afternoon with a
    dryline extending south near/just east of the I-35 corridor.
    Boundary layer moisture will remain modest, with mainly 50s F
    dewpoints expected across eastern OK into AR. Near-60 F dewpoints
    may approach the Red River, but overall moisture will remain shallow
    and the boundary layer should become well-mixed. Nevertheless,
    supercell wind profiles will be present and cooling aloft will
    support steep midlevel lapse rates. This will foster MLCAPE values
    to around 1500 J/kg.

    Some uncertainty remain regarding storm coverage. Notably, the NAM
    maintains quite strong capping, while the HRRR, RAP, GFS and ECMWF
    guidance are more subdued (or fully erode any capping). A slight
    risk has been added near the dryline, close to the surface triple
    point where deeper, sustained convection appears most likely. Given aforementioned parameter space, large hail and strong gusts are the
    most probable storm hazards from late afternoon into Wednesday
    night.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER NORTHEAST TEXAS...SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA...SOUTHWEST ARKANSAS...AND NORTHERN
    LOUISIANA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms producing large hail and localized wind damage
    are likely from northern and eastern Texas into southeast Oklahoma
    across southern Arkansas and northern Louisiana late Wednesday
    afternoon and evening. Isolated severe activity may persist as far
    east as western Mississippi by Thursday morning.

    ...Synopsis...
    On Wednesday, a progressive shortwave trough will move eastward out
    of AZ/NM into the southern Plains, beneath the larger-scale upper
    ridge over the Plains. This wave will be over OK and TX at 00Z, with
    the midlevel speed max nosing toward the ArkLaTex. Substantial
    cooling aloft will occur with this system, resulting in steepening
    lapse rates and increasing instability.

    At the surface, a low will deepen gradually over OK, with a
    front/dryline extending south into central TX. Southerly surface
    winds ahead of the front will bring moisture northward, with near 60
    F dewpoints as far north as southeast OK and southern AR. Though
    winds around 850 mb will veer to west/southwest, deep-layer shear
    will remain strong. The end result should be a concentrated area of
    hail and wind damage.

    ...Northeast TX...southeast OK...southern AR...northern LA...
    Much of the day will be void of thunderstorms as moisture return
    occurs and the trough remains well to the west. However, rapid
    cooling aloft during the late afternoon and evening will overspread
    the diurnally warmed air mass, with MUCAPE to around 1500 J/kg
    developing east of the front which may be near I-35. Winds around
    850 mb will become nearly westerly, but not particularly strong
    north of the midlevel jet, and this may prevent significant drying
    for a time and allow moist parcels near the frontal zone to reach
    the LFC. Given the steeper low-level lapse rates west of the front,
    the westerly flow may support heated parcels from the west with
    moisture mixing vertically near the front.

    Forecast soundings show a capped air mass for much of the day, but
    at least isolated cells are likely to develop with such steep lapse
    rates. The conditional risk of large hail is high, and any storms
    that develop are likely to be severe. Inverted-v profiles exist west
    of the front which supports the notion that at least a narrow zone
    will become uncapped. A storm or two could potentially transition to
    a bow echo with localized wind damage potential, as seen in a few
    CAMs, with perhaps a few storms persisting toward the MS River by
    12Z Thursday.

    ...SUMMARY...
    A few strong to severe thunderstorms are possible from eastern
    Mississippi into Alabama, western Georgia, and parts of the Florida
    Panhandle on Thursday.

    ...Southeast...

    An upper shortwave trough will move over the Southeast and offshore
    the Atlantic coast through Thursday evening. The bulk of the
    mid/upper jet streak associated with the trough will remain focused
    over the Gulf. However, increasing northwesterly flow above 700 mb
    will support effective shear magnitudes around 30-40 kt. Meanwhile, elongated/straight hodographs are noted in forecast soundings. Cool temperatures aloft steep midlevel lapse rates will foster MLCAPE
    values to around 750-1200 J/kg.

    Boundary layer moisture will remain modest, generally in the
    mid/upper 50s to near 60 F. Furthermore, a lack of surface
    boundaries to focus thunderstorm initiation may limit storm
    coverage. Nevertheless, a few storms are expected to be ongoing
    Thursday morning across northern MS. This activity may continue to
    propagate southeast into the afternoon. Additional storms will
    develop during the afternoon aided by heating into the 70s F. A few
    organized cells capable of severe hail and locally strong gusts will
    be possible. Some consideration for a Slight risk (level 2 of 5) was
    give, mainly across southern AL into southwest GA and the FL
    Panhandle where somewhat better low-level moisture is forecast.
    However, a lack of stronger forcing and uncertainty regarding storm
    cover precludes higher probabilities at this time.

    ...SUMMARY...
    A few severe thunderstorms producing hail and locally damaging gusts
    are possible from eastern Mississippi into Alabama, western Georgia,
    and parts of the Florida Panhandle on Thursday.

    ...Synopsis...
    A shortwave trough will continue eastward across the southeastern
    states on Thursday, with midlevel speed max traversing the northern
    Gulf. The trough will be located over AL at midday, with height
    rises on the back side of the trough across MS and southwest AL
    during the afternoon. Very cold temperatures aloft will exist with
    this system, which will contribute to destabilization despite
    less-than-optimal moisture content.

    Elsewhere, a large and deep upper trough will progress across the
    West, with an intense upper vort max and jet streak moving into the
    southern to central High Plains by Friday morning. Thunderstorms are
    unlikely through Friday morning with this system.

    ...Eastern MS...AL...Western GA...FL Panhandle...
    Areas of early day thunderstorms appear likely over northern MS,
    beneath the upper low. Hail will be possible given such cold
    temperatures aloft. Farther south, uncertainty is high for any
    leftover convection or outflows coming in from the west. If a more
    robust convective system can persist overnight across AR, then
    isolated damaging gusts could occur.

    Later in the day, heating will steepen low-level lapse rates into
    AL, GA and FL. However, the trough will continue moving rather
    quickly, which may tend to shunt the more favorable ascent eastward
    with time. A small area of favorable lift and destabilization may
    develop over southeast AL, southwest GA, and the FL Panhandle, with
    large hail possible given long hodographs and cool air aloft.

    ...THERE IS A MODERATE RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS EASTERN MISSOURI...FAR SOUTHEAST IOWA...CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN ILLINOIS...FAR
    WESTERN KENTUCKY...FAR NORTHWEST TENNESSEE...AND EXTREME NORTHEAST
    ARKANSAS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A regional outbreak of severe storms is expected across much of the
    Mississippi Valley, eastward to the Lower Ohio and Tennessee Valleys
    late Friday afternoon into Saturday morning. Widespread damaging
    winds (some greater than 65 kt), several tornadoes (some strong),
    and large hail will all be possible.

    ...Synopsis...

    An intense cyclone will develop from the central Plains to the Upper
    Midwest on Friday. As this system rapidly deepens, an intense jet
    streak (100+ kt at 500 mb) will overspread the Ozarks and Mid-MS
    Valley. Meanwhile, a large area covering much of the MS Valley
    vicinity will see 850-700 mb southwesterly flow around 65-80 kt.
    Southerly low-level flow will transport mid 50s dewpoints as far
    north as IA/northern IL (decreasing with northward extent across the
    Upper Midwest). Richer boundary layer moisture (60s F dewpoints)
    will be confined to the Lower MS Valley and Deep South/TN Valley,
    though near-60 F dewpoints may reach the MS/OH River confluence.
    Rapidly developing convection is expected to develop by late
    afternoon from near a surface low over eastern NE and arcing
    east/southeast along a dryline into the Ozarks. Convection will
    develop northeast across the Mid-MS valley, with additional storms
    develop with southward extent into the Mid-South and TN Valley
    during the nighttime hours.

    ...Mid/Upper Mississippi Valley to the Lower OH/TN Valleys...

    Cold temperatures aloft near the main upper low will support steep
    midlevel lapse rates. While boundary moisture will be modest, MLCAPE
    up to 1000-1500 J/kg is possible. This will support rapid storm
    development amid intense deep-layer shear. Heating ahead of the
    dryline also will support some boundary layer mixing and steepening
    of low-level lapse rates. As a result, a rapidly developing QLCS is
    expected. Convection will shift east/northeast into the nighttime
    hours. Given fast storm motion and the intensity of deep-layer flow,
    swaths of significant wind gusts (greater than 65 kt) are
    anticipated over a large part of the Mid-MS Valley. A gradual
    weakening of convection is expected after midnight with north and
    east extent.

    With southward extent from parts of eastern MO/western IL into the
    Mid-South, some potential for a mix of linear convection and
    supercells appears possible. Vertical shear will support tornadoes
    within linear convection. The environment will especially be
    favorable for strong tornadoes with any supercells that develop.
    This activity may develop a little later than initial convection
    further north, with much of the threat being after dark from
    east-central MO/west-central IL southward to western TN.

    Given the intensity of maximum gusts expected, and widespread
    coverage of damaging gusts, a Moderate risk (level 4 of 5) has been
    included for portions of the Mid-MS Valley vicinity.

    ...MS/AL/TN Overnight...

    Persistent southerly low-level flow will bring mid to possibly upper
    60s F dewpoints northward into the TN Valley overnight. Neutral to
    modest height falls are expected and a persistent, strong low-level
    jet will overspread the region. Forecast soundings indicate very
    favorable thermodynamic and kinematic profiles, which would support
    intense supercells. Forcing mechanisms will be somewhat modest over
    the region, which may limit convective coverage, and a somewhat more conditional risk. However, any storms that develop within this
    environment overnight will pose a risk for strong tornadoes, large
    hail and damaging gusts.

    ...Upper Midwest/Great Lakes vicinity...

    The severe risk will become more marginal into MN/WI/MI. Strong deep
    layer flow will overspread the region and any convection will pose a
    risk of strong gusts. An additional risk for hail also will exist,
    especially with any elevated convection near the warm front
    overnight.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are not expected Monday.

    ...Discussion...
    A return to negligible severe potential across the CONUS will occur
    on Monday.

    In the West, a broad upper trough will progress with multiple
    embedded shortwave impulses. The primary impulse will move across
    parts of CA into the southern Great Basin, aiding in overall
    amplification of the trough by Monday night. A large plume of cool
    mid-level temperatures combined with modest boundary-layer heating
    should support pockets of scant to meager buoyancy. Low-topped
    convection will be most probable across the Central Valley of CA,
    where thunder coverage may become scattered during the afternoon.
    Weak deep-layer shear is expected where instability develops, north
    of the southern CA jetlet. While small hail and locally gusty winds
    are possible, organized severe storms are not anticipated. Elsewhere
    in the West, thunder coverage should be rather isolated.

    Low-probability thunder with isolated low-topped convection is
    apparent along the immediate NC coast on Monday afternoon. While a
    post-frontal environment, scant buoyancy may develop as a sharp
    gradient in mid-level cooling approaches at peak boundary-layer
    heating.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
    EASTERN NEBRASKA...SOUTHERN IOWA AND FAR NORTHWEST MISSOURI...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated, marginally severe hail will be possible during the
    overnight late Tuesday into early Wednesday from eastern Nebraska
    across much of Iowa.

    ...Eastern Nebraska/Iowa/Far Northwest Missouri...
    A trough at mid-levels, will move quickly eastward into the Rockies
    on Tuesday, and into the High Plains Tuesday night. Near the trough, thunderstorm development will likely take place in the Four Corners
    region Tuesday afternoon. Ahead of the trough, a surface low will
    deepen over the central Plains, as a narrow corridor of low-level
    moisture develops from eastern Oklahoma into eastern Kansas and
    northwest Missouri. The low is forecast to move through northeast
    Kansas overnight, with low-level convergence becoming concentrated
    from the surface low northeastward along a warm front into southern
    Iowa. After midnight, thunderstorm development will be possible
    along and north of the front. RAP forecast soundings just to the
    north of the boundary at 06Z/Wednesday show a steep surface
    inversion below 800 mb. MUCAPE is forecast to reach the 750 to 1000
    J/kg range, with 700-500 mb lapse rates of the 8 to 9 C/km.
    Effective shear on the north side of the boundary is forecast to be
    in the 30 to 40 knot range. This environment could be sufficient for
    an isolated large hail threat, associated with elevated rotating
    storms, mainly in the 06Z to 12Z timeframe.

    ...THERE IS A MODERATE RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN SOUTHEAST
    IA...EASTERN MO...IL...FAR WESTERN KY/NORTHWEST TN/NORTHEAST AR...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A regional outbreak of severe storms is likely over the Lower/Mid-Missouri/Mississippi Valleys and Lower Ohio Valley late
    Friday afternoon into Saturday morning. Tornadoes, several of which
    could be strong, widespread damaging winds with gusts from 70 to 90
    mph, and scattered large hail up to baseball size will be possible.

    ...Synopsis...
    Primary change this outlook cycle has been to mainly expand
    MRGL/SLGT/ENH damaging wind probabilities west to north in the
    Lower/Mid-MO Valley. No change to the level 4/MDT risk with greater
    uncertainty over the southern extent of widespread damaging wind
    potential into the Mid-South, but where strong tornado potential
    persists.

    ...Lower/Mid-MO, Mid-MS, and Lower OH Valleys...
    A powerful shortwave trough will amplify from the southern High
    Plains into the Upper MS Valley. This will induce further deepening
    of an intense surface cyclone across the central Great Plains to the
    Mid-MO Valley. Initial surface-based thunderstorm development is
    expected by early to mid-afternoon along the northwest periphery of
    a modified moisture plume emanating north from the South-Central
    States. Well-mixed, inverted-v thermodynamic profiles will support
    downward momentum transport in the left-exit region of an intense
    700-mb jet curling across the Ozarks to the Mid-MS Valley. This
    should yield a rapidly progressing QLCS from the Lower to Mid-MO
    Valley across much of the Mid-MS Valley into Friday evening, with
    semi-discrete supercells trailing to the southeast portion of the
    convective plume. Given the fast low to mid-level flow regime,
    embedded gusts from 60-80 kts should be common along with a
    QLCS/embedded supercell tornado threat. The latter will be greater
    with southeast extent where a ribbon of somewhat richer low-level
    moisture should reach the Mid-MS Valley. Convection should tend to
    weaken overnight more quickly on the north end of the outlook area
    as it outpaces the confined surface-based instability plume. But
    some overnight damaging wind/tornado potential should persist across
    the Lower OH Valley.

    ...Mid-South to Lower MS and TN Valleys...
    South of the QLCS regime, forecast confidence in sustaining deep
    convection lowers with southern extent. Persistent southerly
    low-level flow will bring mid to upper 60s F dewpoints northward
    across the region by Friday evening/night. Forecast soundings
    indicate rather favorable thermodynamic and kinematic profiles,
    conditionally supporting intense and long-track supercells. Neutral
    to weak mid-level height falls are expected, with the strong
    low-level jet tending to shift north/east of the Lower MS Valley
    overnight. This suggests forcing mechanisms will be modest, which is
    likely behind guidance spread with the depiction of deep convection
    during the evening and overnight.

    A few broken to semi-discrete supercells appear most probable in the
    Mid-South, posing a risk for strong tornadoes, significant damaging
    wind gusts, and very large hail. These threats appear more
    conditional farther south/east in the Lower MS and TN Valleys.

    ...THERE IS A MODERATE RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF LOUISIANNA...MISSISSIPPI...ALABAMA AND THE FLORIDA PANHANDLE...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A tornado outbreak is possible on Saturday across the central Gulf
    Coast States and Deep South into the Tennessee Valley. Numerous
    significant tornadoes, and some long-track tornadoes are expected on
    Saturday afternoon and evening, centered on eastern Louisiana,
    Mississippi, and Alabama. Widespread damaging wind swaths and
    scattered large hail are likely.

    ...Tornado Outbreak Possible Across parts of the Southeast on
    Saturday...
    ...Gulf Coast States/Tennessee Valley/Southern
    Appalachians/Georgia...
    At mid-levels on Saturday, a strong and fast-moving jet streak will
    translate eastward across the southern U.S., as an associated trough
    moves through the Great Plains. Ahead of the system, a moist and
    unstable airmass will be in place across the lower to mid
    Mississippi Valley. Warming surface temperatures in the morning will
    contribute to the development of moderate instability across much of
    the moist airmass. As large-scale ascent increases ahead of the
    approaching jet streak, scattered thunderstorms are expected to
    initiate near the western edge of the moist airmass during the late
    morning, from eastern Louisiana into northwest Mississippi and
    western Tennessee. These storms should become severe rather quickly
    due large-scale forcing, moderate instability and strong deep-layer
    shear. Supercells with large hail, wind damage and a tornado threat
    are expected to develop and move east-northeastward during the
    afternoon across the central Gulf Coast States and Tennessee Valley.

    The exit region of the mid-level jet streak is forecast to move
    across the lower Mississippi Valley and Tennessee during the mid to
    late afternoon, which will be timed well with afternoon max heating.
    Forecast soundings at 21Z across parts of southern and central
    Mississippi have MLCAPE in the 2000 to 3500 J/kg range, with 0-6 km
    shear of 70 to 80 knots. 700-500 mb lapse rates are forecast to be
    near 8 C/km, with 0-3 km storm-relative helicity in the 400 to 500
    m2/s2 range. This will be very favorable for intense severe storms,
    with a threat for tornadoes, wind damage and large hail. Several
    tornadic supercells are expected to develop within this cluster by
    mid to late afternoon as the low-level jet intensifies. Multiple
    long-track high-end tornadoes will be possible. The greatest tornado
    threat is expected to shift into Alabama by early to mid evening,
    with a significant tornado threat also impacting parts of middle
    Tennessee. In addition, supercells are expected to grow upscale into
    a developing MCS, with potential to produce significant severe wind
    gusts above 70 knots and large hail. The severe threat is expected
    to develop eastward into parts of Georgia and the southern
    Appalachians by mid to late evening. A severe threat should continue
    into the overnight.

    ...Ohio Valley/Lower Great Lakes...
    A negatively-tilted mid-level trough will move into the western
    Great Lakes on Saturday, as the southern part of the trough moves
    into the mid to upper Mississippi Valley. Ahead of the system,
    southwest mid-level flow will be in place over most of the Great
    Lakes and Ohio Valley. At the start of the period, a corridor of
    rich low-level moisture is forecast from western Kentucky northward
    into Indiana. Surface dewpoints along this corridor will likely
    range from the mid 50s to the lower 60s F. Early in the period, a
    cluster of strong thunderstorms is forecast to move across the Ohio
    valley. Some of the storms could have severe potential. Wind damage,
    isolated large hail and a few tornadoes will be possible. In the
    wake of this activity, outflow could negatively affect the airmass
    over parts of the Ohio Valley. However, areas that are not affected
    by outflow could re-destabilize, maintaining a severe threat. As the
    exit region of a mid-level jet moves across the Ohio Valley and
    lower Great Lakes during the late afternoon, supercells will be
    possible due to the increasing large-scale ascent and strong
    deep-layer shear. Any supercell could have potential for tornadoes,
    wind damage and hail.

    ...THERE IS A HIGH RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN CENTRAL/SOUTHERN
    PARTS OF MS/AL...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A tornado outbreak is likely on Saturday across the central Gulf
    Coast States and Deep South into the Tennessee Valley. Numerous
    significant tornadoes, some of which should be long-track and
    potentially violent, are expected on Saturday afternoon and evening.
    The most dangerous tornado threat should begin across eastern
    Louisiana and Mississippi during the late morning to afternoon,
    spread across Alabama late day into the evening, and reach western
    parts of the Florida Panhandle and Georgia Saturday night.

    ...Central Gulf Coast/Deep South/TN Valley...
    After collaboration with WFOs BMX/JAN/MOB, an upgrade to a level
    5-HIGH risk appears warranted for the most likely corridor of
    potentially violent tornadoes, peaking tomorrow afternoon and
    evening. A broader level 4-MDT risk has been expanded somewhat
    eastward for the nocturnal significant tornado threat.

    An intense mid-level jet, 100-110 kts at 500 mb, will eject through
    the basal portion of a broad southern Great Plains shortwave trough.
    This will induce secondary cyclogenesis along an initially
    slow-moving baroclinic zone from the Ark-La-Tex to the central Great
    Lakes. Another day of air mass modification ahead of this wave will
    yield a pronounced plume of rich northwest Gulf moisture that should
    be pristine across southeast LA and southern MS through late
    morning. As mid-level height falls overspread the diurnally warming
    air mass, increasing convective development is expected along the
    deepening baroclinic zone, as well as residual outflows to its
    northeast in the TN Valley from prior late D1 convection.

    Steep mid-level lapse rates atop the richly moist boundary layer
    will yield at least moderate MLCAPE from 1500-2500 J/kg across
    eastern LA into central MS. Vertically veering wind profiles with
    strong anvil-level divergence amid the favorable instability should
    support robust updrafts and intense supercells. Low-level shear will
    strengthen midday through the afternoon, yielding potential for a
    tornado outbreak.

    The most probable convective corridor will be along the effective
    outflow boundary across central/northern parts of MS into north AL
    and south TN. Along and south of this will be the most favored
    corridor for long-tracked, discrete supercells. These will likely
    develop within north/south-oriented confluence bands as increasing
    large-scale ascent becomes coincident with the peak heating cycle.
    A volatile combination of kinematic/thermodynamic parameters will
    support potential for long-track, EF3+ tornadoes. The overall
    spatial extent of this threat will be modulated by the degree of
    boundary-layer heating within the mid to upper 60s dew point plume,
    along with where exactly the large-scale outflow boundary sets up
    from late D1/early D2.

    Significant tornado potential, along with very large hail and
    destructive damaging wind gusts, should persist into Saturday night.
    Greater potential for a broken to linear band of thunderstorms is
    anticipated by this time, but wind profiles will still strongly
    favor supercells. As such, a mix of all three hazards may continue
    with sig severe hail potential favored south and sig severe wind
    favored north as the convective band spreads towards the southern
    Appalachians and the northeast Gulf Coast.

    ...OH Valley to central Great Lakes...
    Forecast confidence remains low with regard to severe potential
    north of the TN Valley. Guidance continues to differ on the degree
    of diurnal destabilization in the wake of the D1 shortwave trough
    and deep cyclone tracking into northern Ontario. With increasingly
    widespread Mid/Deep South to TN Valley thunderstorms during the day
    Saturday, the northward extent of appreciable surface-based
    instability appears highly questionable within a predominately
    meridional deep-layer wind profile. Given the fast flow regime
    though, even weak convection late afternoon through Saturday night
    will pose some risk for locally strong gusts and a tornado.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
    THE ATLANTIC COASTAL STATES...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe thunderstorms with a few tornadoes, scattered
    damaging winds, and marginally severe hail will be possible on
    Sunday across parts of the East.

    ...Atlantic Coastal States...
    At the start of the period, a mid-level trough will be located in
    the mid Mississippi Valley, with south-southwest flow in place
    across much of the eastern U.S. A 90 to 100 kt mid-level jet streak
    should be located over the southern Appalachians. At 12Z on Sunday,
    a broken line of strong storms is expected to be ongoing within
    relatively close proximity to this jet. The stronger cells within
    this broken line may be associated with an isolated severe threat,
    as it moves eastward across Virginia, the Carolinas, southeast
    Georgia and northern Florida. The severe threat is expected to ramp
    up during the mid to late morning as surface temperatures warm ahead
    of the line. Isolated severe gusts should occur with the more
    organized short multicell line segments. Cells that remain discrete
    could also have a threat for isolated large hail and tornadoes. The
    tornado threat is expected to remain isolated, with the greatest
    potential in the central Carolinas and south-central Virginia. The
    severe threat is expected to be maintained into the afternoon, as
    the storms move toward the Atlantic Coast. While the shear
    environment will be impressive, instability is forecast to remain
    weak with poor low-level lapse rates. This should keep any severe
    threat relatively isolated.

    ...Southern and Central Appalachians...
    A mid-level trough will move slowly through the mid Mississippi
    Valley on Sunday, as a jet streak translates northeastward into the
    central Appalachians. During the morning, convection that is located
    near a pre-frontal trough, will move eastward away from the higher
    terrain and into the lower elevations of the Atlantic Coastal
    Plains. Further west, a cold front is forecast to advance eastward
    to near the crest of the southern Appalachians by afternoon. Ahead
    of the front, surface heating will take place allowing for weak destabilization. In addition, the environment will consist of cold
    air aloft and strong large-scale ascent near the mid-level jet. This
    should support a marginal severe threat in the afternoon, with
    isolated severe gusts and hail possible. This severe threat could
    extend northeastward into parts of West Virginia and Pennsylvania,
    where weak instability is also forecast to remain weak.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN THE SOUTHEAST
    TO LOWER MID-ATLANTIC STATES...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Sporadic damaging wind swaths and a few tornadoes will be the
    primary threats from Sunday morning through dusk across a broad
    portion of the East.

    ...FL/GA/SC...
    A broken band of thunderstorms should be ongoing at 12Z Sunday from
    parts of north FL into central SC. This activity should be in an
    overall weakening state, as the primary surface cyclone becomes well
    displaced from this region and the band outpaced/overturned the
    central Gulf Coast/Deep South instability plume overnight. Still,
    favorable low-level shear will linger, coincident with at least mid
    60s surface dew points, to warrant a downstream wind/tornado threat
    into early afternoon. The trailing portion of the convective band
    will encounter further diminishing/more veered low-level flow
    southward in the FL Peninsula. This should result in more of a
    damaging wind/isolated hail threat deeper into the afternoon.

    ...NC to Mid-Atlantic States...
    Lower-topped convection should be ongoing across parts of the
    central/southern Appalachians vicinity at 12Z Sunday.
    Destabilization ahead of this activity should be muted by weaker
    mid-level lapse rates and substantially less boundary-layer heating
    relative to the FL Peninsula. But with very strong low-level
    shear/winds, hodographs will remain enlarged for a tornado threat.
    The deep-layer meridional wind profile should tend to mostly
    parallel convective bands, which may temper a more widespread
    damaging wind threat. There is some signal in guidance at a
    secondary round of late afternoon to early evening redevelopment
    into the Piedmont with boundary-layer recovery in the wake of
    early-day activity. Confidence in this scenario is low as stronger
    forcing for ascent may be displaced north. As such, a broad level
    2-SLGT risk for wind/tornado remains appropriate at this juncture.

    ...Alleghany Plateau/Upper OH Valley...
    The northern portion of a thin, low-topped convective band may be
    ongoing at 12Z Sunday. Low-level shear will initially be extreme
    ahead of it, but surface-based instability should be scant at most
    through late morning. As such, a conditional, low-probability
    wind/tornado threat appears warranted. Isolated to scattered
    cellular convection may form later along the north/south-oriented
    cold front trailing from the primary surface cyclone advancing from
    Lake Huron into Quebec. Low-level winds will be veered ahead of the
    front, substantially curtailing low-level shear compared to
    mid-morning. But strong deep-layer shear and a well-mixed boundary
    layer could foster locally strong gusts and small hail.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PORTIONS OF
    EASTERN NEBRASKA INTO IOWA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated, marginally severe hail will remain possible during the
    overnight late Tuesday into early Wednesday from eastern Nebraska
    across much of Iowa.

    ...Synopsis...
    A pronounced mid-level trough will eject into the Plains states,
    encouraging rapid surface cyclone development and intensification
    along the KS/OK border Tuesday. As this occurs, very strong
    low-level flow will encourage the northward advection of marginal
    moisture across the Plains toward the Midwest. By late Tuesday night
    into Wednesday morning, low-level moisture convergence along the
    terminus of the low-level jet will encourage thunderstorm
    development along an effective warm front. Given strong vertical
    wind shear in proximity to the low-level jet terminus, a few strong
    to potentially severe thunderstorms are possible.

    ...Central Plains/Midwest...
    After 06Z, the nose of a 50+ kt south-southwesterly low-level jet
    will become established roughly along the KS/NE/IA/MO border, where
    isentropic lift will encourage elevated thunderstorm development
    above an inversion layer (roughly 800-700 mb in altitude). Above the
    inversion, forecast soundings show 8-9 C/km mid-level lapse rates
    contributing to 500-1000 J/kg MUCAPE, with elongated/straight
    hodographs contributing to 50 kts of effective bulk shear. This
    environment will support elevated supercells traversing the
    effective warm front with a threat for hail, a few instances of
    which may exceed severe limits. Timing for any severe hail appears
    to fall within the 06-12Z Wednesday morning period.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PART OF
    ILLINOIS AND INDIANA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered severe thunderstorms are possible on Wednesday across
    parts of eastern Illinois and western Indiana from mid-afternoon to
    early evening. Severe gusts and hail will be the primary threats.

    ...Upper Midwest/Lower Ohio Valley/Tennessee Valley...
    A broad cyclonic flow pattern will be in place over much of the
    continental U.S. on Wednesday. At the mid-levels, a trough will move
    from the central Plains into the Ozarks, as southwest flow
    strengthens over the Ohio and Tennessee Valleys. At the start of the
    period, a cluster of thunderstorms associated with an isolated large
    hail threat, will be ongoing over parts of Iowa and southern
    Wisconsin. At the surface, a low will move eastward into northern
    Illinois by afternoon, as low-level moisture increases across the
    mid Mississippi Valley. A north-to-south corridor with surface
    dewpoints in the 50s F will setup from southeast Missouri into
    south-central Illinois. A 50 to 60 knot low-level jet will
    consolidate over the extreme western portion of the lower Ohio
    Valley.

    Thunderstorms appear likely to initiate during the mid afternoon,
    along and near the moist axis, and to the west of the low-level jet.
    These storms will move eastward into the Ohio and Tennessee Valleys
    in the late afternoon and early evening. Although instability will
    remain weak along the moist axis, organized cells could develop
    across eastern Illinois and western Indiana within an area of strong large-scale ascent. Forecast soundings in eastern Illinois by late
    afternoon have MUCAPE peaking in the 400 to 600 J/kg range, with
    very strong deep-layer shear in excess of 80 knots. Cells that can
    persist in this environment could produce severe gusts and hail.

    ...Central Gulf Coast States...
    Cyclonically-curved mid-level southwest flow will be in place across
    much of the Southeast on Wednesday. The entrance region of a 90 to
    100 mid-level jet will overspread the Ark-La-Tex, as a cold front
    moves eastward into the central Gulf Coast states. Ahead of the
    front, surface dewpoints will be mostly in the upper 50s and lower
    60s F. During the late afternoon, isolated thunderstorms are
    expected to develop just ahead of the front in an area of focused
    low-level convergence from north-central Mississippi into northwest
    Alabama. Forecast soundings in north-central Mississippi at
    00Z/Thursday have MUCAPE around 500 J/kg, with 0-6 km shear near 70
    knot. This could be enough for an isolated severe threat associated
    with the stronger multicells, and perhaps a rotating storm.
    Marginally severe gusts and hail will be possible.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PORTIONS OF
    EASTERN ILLINOIS INTO WESTERN INDIANA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered severe thunderstorms are possible on Wednesday across
    parts of eastern Illinois and western Indiana from mid-afternoon to
    early evening. Severe gusts and hail will be the primary threats,
    though a couple of tornadoes are also possible.

    ...Synopsis...
    A potent mid-level trough will traverse the Plains and overspread
    the MS Valley, encouraging an intense surface cyclone to track from
    the Mid-MO Valley to the Great Lakes on Wednesday. Despite the
    intensity of the surface low and accompanying upper support from the
    mid-level trough, buoyancy is expected to remain scant within the
    warm sector given very limited low-level moisture. Nonetheless,
    strong isallobaric surface flow and the presence of a low-level jet
    ahead of the surface cyclone will allow for the northward advection
    of some moisture (however marginal) to support low-topped storms
    amid a highly sheared airmass. Some of these storms may become
    strong to occasionally severe, particularly in the Midwest toward
    the OH Valley.

    ...Midwest to OH Valley...
    Modest clearing and associated insolation ahead of the surface low
    will promote modest boundary-layer mixing and destabilization amid
    marginal moisture. Surface dewpoints of at least 50 F with the
    aforementioned heating, beneath 7-8 C/km mid-level lapse rates, will
    support 250-750 J/kg SBCAPE by mid to late afternoon. During this
    time frame, surface winds are expected to be backed from the
    southeast, with a 50+ kt southwesterly low-level jet contributing to substantial veering/strengthening of the low-level wind profile.
    Somewhat curved and elongated hodographs will contribute to over 300
    m2/s2 of sfc-3km SRH. Given marginal buoyancy, an arcing band of
    low-topped supercells will precede the surface low, accompanied by a
    damaging gust/hail threat. Furthermore, the strong low-level shear,
    and increasing low-level vertical vorticity (as the surface low
    approaches) will also foster a risk for at least an isolated
    tornado.

    There are some discrepancies among guidance members regarding the
    degree of low-level destabilization across portions of the OH Valley
    ahead of the surface low. RAP forecast soundings show mid 50s F
    surface dewpoints beneath 8+ C/km mid-level rates, supporting a
    relatively higher tornado threat compared to NAM, which shows low
    50s F dewpoints overspread by 6.5-7.5 C/km lapse rates. Higher
    tornado probabilities may be needed in future outlooks if guidance
    consensus depicts more boundary-layer instability.

    ...TN Valley into the Southeast...
    At least isolated thunderstorms are expected to develop by late
    afternoon into evening along the surface cold front, which will
    sweep across the TN Valley/Southeast areas. These storms are
    expected to be low-topped in nature, but highly sheared (given a 40+
    kt southwesterly low-level jet, beneath 80+ kts of southwesterly 500
    mb flow, contributing to 50-70 kts of effective bulk shear). In
    addition to marginal low-level moisture, modest warming in the
    850-700 mb layer will also limit thunderstorm intensity and
    coverage. Given strong low-level and deep-layer directional and
    speed shear, any storms that can become established and sustained
    may become supercellular, posing mainly a risk for a few instances
    of damaging gusts/hail.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Thunderstorm development will be possible on Thursday in parts of
    the Mid-Atlantic and northern Rockies. A severe threat is not
    expected.

    ...DISCUSSION...
    At mid-levels on Thursday, a trough will move across the Ohio and
    Tennessee Valleys, as a fetch of southwest flow strengthens along
    the East Coast. At the surface, a pre-frontal trough will move
    across the Atlantic Coastal Plains. Ahead of the front, surface
    dewpoints are expected to reach the 50s F across the Mid-Atlantic,
    where weak destabilization will occur. Forecast soundings near the
    moist axis Thursday afternoon in central Virginia have MUCAPE
    peaking around 250 J/kg. As the exit region of the mid-level jet
    passes by, 0-6 km shear is forecast to be in the 80 to 90 knot
    range. Although thunderstorms will be possible across parts of the
    Mid-Atlantic Thursday afternoon, the instability is expected to be
    too weak for a severe threat.

    Elsewhere, isolated thunderstorms will be possible ahead of a
    shortwave mid-level trough, across parts of the northern Rockies and
    northern High Plains. No severe threat is expected across the
    continental U.S. Thursday and Thursday night.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Thunderstorm development will be possible on Thursday in parts of
    the Mid-Atlantic and northern Rockies. A severe threat is not
    expected.

    ...Synopsis...
    A mid-level trough will traverse the Rockies as a second upper
    trough ejects into the Atlantic tomorrow (Thursday). A surface cold
    front will accompany the East Coast trough, immediately preceded by
    marginal low-level moisture (e.g. low 50s F surface dewpoints).
    Scant buoyancy, driven by the meager low-level moisture, may
    encourage the development of a few thunderstorms from the Mid
    Atlantic to Carolina Piedmont region. Given relatively strong flow
    just above the boundary layer, strong wind gusts may occur with a
    few of the storms, but confidence in any appreciable severe gust
    coverage is too low for the addition of severe probabilities at this
    time. Otherwise, the only other location where lightning flashes may
    be observed is over the northern Rockies, where a plume of cold
    temperatures aloft, associated with the western trough, may promote
    enough buoyancy (albeit scant) to support a few thunderstorms.

    ...DISCUSSION...
    At mid-levels, a shortwave trough will move across the central
    states on Friday, as another shortwave trough moves across the
    Pacific Northwest. Ahead of both of these features, instability will
    be very weak. However, mid-level moisture and large-scale ascent
    should be enough for isolated thunderstorm development across parts
    of the Midwest and Pacific Northwest. No severe threat is expected
    across the continental U.S. on Friday and Friday night.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are not expected Friday.

    ...Mid-MO/MS Valleys...
    A compact shortwave impulse currently over the northern Rockies will
    progress across parts of the Mid-MO/MS Valleys Friday. Despite a
    dearth of low-level moisture, diurnally steepening lapse rates along
    with a focused corridor of moderate large-scale ascent should
    support a swath of isolated to scattered low-topped convection,
    primarily from late morning to early evening. Meager buoyancy should
    be adequate for sporadic lightning. Gusty, sub-severe winds may
    accompany this activity, especially across the southern portion of
    the convective threat, owing to a deeper mixed boundary layer and
    30-40 kt 850-mb westerlies.

    ...Northwest...
    The next shortwave trough will move inland of the Pacific Northwest
    coast and reach the northern Rockies by Friday night. Scattered
    low-topped convection should accompany this wave within a confined
    belt of stronger forcing for ascent coincident with scant buoyancy
    at most. Isolated thunderstorms are possible near the Cascades on
    Friday afternoon, shifting east across the Columbia Basin and into
    the northern Rockies through late evening.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PORTIONS
    OF EASTERN KANSAS AND INTO MUCH OF MISSOURI...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A few severe thunderstorms capable of producing hail are possible on
    Saturday night across portions of Missouri and adjacent eastern
    Kansas.

    ...Synopsis...
    Weakly cyclonic/fast flow aloft will reside over the U.S. at the
    start of the period, with a short-wave trough crossing the Ohio
    Valley, and a second over the northwestern states. With time, the
    eastern of these two features will shift into/across the Northeast
    and Mid-Atlantic region. An associated cold front will likewise
    cross the Northeast, but lack of buoyancy will prevail. A few
    lightning flashes cannot be ruled out as the system crosses the
    Mid-Atlantic region, but at this time, coverage appears likely to
    remain below 10%

    Meanwhile, the western upper system is forecast to advance
    east-southeastward across the northern Intermountain region through
    the day, and into the northern and central Plains through the second
    half of the period. In tandem, a developing surface cold front is
    expected to shift across the Plains states overnight.
    Scattered/elevated thunderstorms should develop across the Missouri
    vicinity overnight, ahead of this system.

    ...Eastern Kansas into Missouri...
    As the upper trough moves into/across the Plains, a strong southerly
    low-level jet is forecast over the Upper Mississippi Valley
    vicinity. Meanwhile, a secondary southwesterly branch of the
    low-level jet is expected to evolve across Oklahoma/Missouri by late
    evening. Warm/moist advection atop a stable boundary layer should
    lead to sufficient destabilization to allow scattered convective
    development, with greatest CAPE expected from northeastern Kansas
    into northern and central Missouri. Given fairly steep mid-level
    lapse rates, and strong mid-level flow yielding ample shear for
    updraft organization, a few of the stronger storms may become
    capable of producing large hail.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PORTIONS OF
    EASTERN KANSAS INTO MISSOURI...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A few thunderstorms capable of producing isolated severe gusts/hail
    are possible Saturday night into early Sunday morning across
    portions of eastern Kansas into Missouri.

    ...Synopsis...
    A mid-level trough will rapidly traverse the central Rockies and
    eject into the Plains states as another mid-level trough moves into
    the Atlantic tomorrow (Saturday). Surface cyclone development should
    take place over the northern Plains by Saturday afternoon, promoting
    modest moisture return up into the mid-MO Valley as cold
    temperatures aloft advect over the central Rockies/Plains from the
    west. High-based, low-topped convection will become prevalent across
    the Plains, along with gusty conditions during the afternoon, before
    deeper convection becomes established in the low-level warm-air
    advection regime across the MO Valley Saturday night. Isolated
    strong to severe thunderstorms could develop late Saturday
    night/early Sunday morning across eastern KS into MO.

    ...Central/Northern Rockies into the central Plains...
    As the upper trough ejects into the Plains and supports surface low development, cold temperatures aloft (i.e. -20C around 500 mb) will
    support 8+ C/km mid-level lapse rates overspreading a relatively
    deep, dry boundary layer Saturday afternoon. High-based, low-topped
    storms should develop by afternoon peak heating amid vertical
    profiles characterized by wind speeds quickly increasing with
    height. Overall buoyancy should be shallow, with no more than a
    couple hundred J/kg MUCAPE expected. However, some of the more
    robust convective updrafts that develop may be deep enough to
    support both charge separation for lightning flashes, and effective
    downward momentum transport of the stronger flow aloft for strong
    wind gusts given steep lapse rates through the column. However,
    questions remain how prevalent 50+ kt gusts would become with these
    storms, precluding severe probabilities this outlook.

    ...Eastern KS into MO Saturday...
    By late Saturday night, a 50-60 kt southwesterly low-level jet will
    develop around 850 mb, encouraging appreciable low-level warm-air
    and moisture advection ahead of an approaching surface cold front.
    Steep lapse rates will also precede the cold front, supporting at
    least 500-750 J/kg MUCAPE amid largely curved and elongated
    hodographs/well over 50 kts of effective bulk shear. Nearly all of
    this buoyancy is contained above 850 mb, so elevated
    multicells/supercells with an isolated severe gust/hail threat is
    expected late Saturday night into Sunday morning.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM EASTERN TEXAS
    TO THE TENNESSEE VALLEY...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Afternoon storms from western Tennessee southwestward to
    northeastern Texas may pose a risk for severe wind and hail, and
    possibly a tornado or two.

    ...Synopsis...
    As an eastern U.S. upper trough continues progressing eastward
    toward/across the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic region, a second trough
    is progged to advance southeastward out of the northern
    Intermountain region into/across the northern and central Plains,
    and the Upper Midwest by Sunday morning.

    At the surface, an occluding low -- initially over the Minnesota
    area, is forecast to deepen while shifting eastward into the Upper
    Great Lakes. A trailing cold front will shift south-southeastward
    across the Ozarks and the Red River Valley area, and later the Lower Mississippi and Tennessee Valleys.

    ...Eastern Texas northeastward to the Tennessee Valley area...
    Daytime heating ahead of a slowly southeastward-advancing cold front
    will result in modest destabilization across the Tennessee Valley
    area, and more substantial CAPE westward across the Arklatex into
    Texas. While capping will be a concern, resulting in increasingly
    conditional severe risk with westward extent, ascent near the front
    should be sufficient to support scattered to isolated storm
    development -- particularly from the Arklatex to western Tennessee,
    during the afternoon.

    With fast westerly flow aloft, atop south-southwesterlies at low
    levels, shear sufficient for organized/rotating storms suggest that
    stronger storms will be capable of producing hail and locally
    damaging wind gusts. The risk should maximize through late
    afternoon/early evening, and then gradually diminishing in tandem
    with diurnal cooling through mid to late evening.

    CORRECTED SYNOPSIS

    ...SUMMARY...
    Afternoon storms from western Tennessee southwestward to
    northeastern Texas may pose a risk for severe wind and hail, and
    possibly a tornado or two.

    ...Synopsis...
    An upper trough is expected to continue progressing across the Great
    Lakes region through Monday morning, as a lead feature exits New
    England.

    At the surface, an occluding low -- initially over the Minnesota
    area, is forecast to deepen while shifting eastward into the Upper
    Great Lakes. A trailing cold front will shift south-southeastward
    across the Ozarks and the Red River Valley area, and later the Lower Mississippi and Tennessee Valleys.

    ...Eastern Texas northeastward to the Tennessee Valley area...
    Daytime heating ahead of a slowly southeastward-advancing cold front
    will result in modest destabilization across the Tennessee Valley
    area, and more substantial CAPE westward across the Arklatex into
    Texas. While capping will be a concern, resulting in increasingly
    conditional severe risk with westward extent, ascent near the front
    should be sufficient to support scattered to isolated storm
    development -- particularly from the Arklatex to western Tennessee,
    during the afternoon.

    With fast westerly flow aloft, atop south-southwesterlies at low
    levels, shear sufficient for organized/rotating storms suggest that
    stronger storms will be capable of producing hail and locally
    damaging wind gusts. The risk should maximize through late
    afternoon/early evening, and then gradually diminishing in tandem
    with diurnal cooling through mid to late evening.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PARTS OF EAST
    TEXAS INTO THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI AND TENNESSEE VALLEYS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are possible during the afternoon and evening
    from East Texas into the Lower Mississippi and Tennessee Valleys.
    Large hail and damaging gusts will be the main severe hazard, though
    a couple of tornadoes also are possible.

    ...East TX into KY/TN/AL...

    An upper trough over the Plains Sunday morning will shift east,
    extending from the upper Great Lakes to the central Gulf coast by
    Monday morning. A belt of moderate mid/upper westerlies will extend
    from the Ohio Valley south to the Mid-South/Deep South vicinity. A southwesterly low-level jet greater than 40 kt will overspread the
    region during the afternoon, with some intensification of the LLJ
    possible across the Deep South overnight as the upper trough
    deepens. Favorable shear profiles will support organized convection
    during the afternoon and into the overnight period.

    At the surface, a low centered over the Upper Midwest during the
    morning will shift east across the Upper Great Lakes. A trailing
    cold front is forecast to sweep across the outlook area from
    mid-afternoon into the night time hours. South/southwesterly
    low-level flow will transport Gulf moisture northward ahead of the
    front, with 60s F dewpoints possible as far north as western TN. A
    narrow corridor of mid-60s F dewpoints is possible across the MS
    Delta vicinity into coastal LA/TX. Cold temperatures aloft
    (generally from -20 to -16 C) will support steepening midlevel lapse
    rates, and weak to moderate destabilization.

    Weaker destabilization (generally less than 500 J/kg) is expected
    over northern portions of the outlook area where boundary layer
    moisture will be more modest and daytime heating not as strong as
    further south. Nevertheless, stronger large-scale ascent and frontal
    forcing coincident with strong deep-layer flow will support at least
    an isolated risk for damaging gusts/hail.

    Stronger destabilization (1000-1500 J/kg MLCAPE) is expected with south/southwest extent. Large-scale ascent will be weaker, but
    frontal forcing should be sufficient for isolated to scattered storm development across LA/MS, with a more conditional risk with
    southwest extent into TX. Forecast soundings will support supercells
    or small line segments. Damaging gusts and large hail will be the
    main concern from late afternoon into the nighttime hours. However,
    a narrow corridor of greater tornado potential appears evident from
    northeast LA into central MS and a couple or tornadoes will be
    possible. The severe risk should gradually wane with southeast
    extent during the overnight hours.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE
    CENTRAL GULF COAST REGION AND VICINITY...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A few strong/possibly severe thunderstorms will be possible Monday
    morning and afternoon, from southern Louisiana eastward to southern
    Georgia and the Florida Panhandle.

    ...Synopsis...
    An upper-level trough is forecast to advance slowly eastward across
    the eastern half of the U.S. on Monday, while ridging expands over
    the West. At the surface, a weakening occluded low will move from
    the Upper Great Lakes eastward to southern Quebec through the
    period. A trailing cold front will initially stretch from the Lower
    Great Lakes to the southern Appalachians, and then westward across
    the Gulf Coast States to Texas. The front will move offshore into
    the western Atlantic through the day, while sagging southward toward
    the Gulf Coast -- where it should then linger through the end of the
    period.

    ...Southern Louisiana to southern Georgia and the Florida
    Panhandle...
    Showers and a few thunderstorms will likely be ongoing near and
    south of the advancing cold front. Some severe risk (mainly
    hail/wind) may accompany a couple of the stronger storms during the
    morning, near the Gulf Coast region. Depending upon convective coverage/evolution through late morning, any pre-frontal heating/destabilization could support
    redevelopment/reintensification of frontal convection, with a
    secondary peak in severe potential possible in this scenario.
    Still, overall risk does not appear to warrant SLGT risk upgrade at
    this time. Storms should weaken into the evening, while also
    shifting gradually southward/offshore.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM SOUTHEAST
    LOUISIANA INTO SOUTHWEST GEORGIA AND THE FLORIDA PANHANDLE...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A few strong/possibly severe thunderstorms will be possible Monday
    morning and afternoon, from southern Louisiana eastward to southern
    Georgia and the Florida Panhandle.

    ...Synopsis...

    An amplified upper pattern is forecast across the CONUS on Monday,
    with an upper trough pivoting over the eastern U.S. while an upper
    ridge builds across the West. A surface cold front is forecast to
    extend from the central Appalachians southwest into southern
    MS/AL/LA, and then westward into south-central TX by midday. This
    front will shift south and east offshore the Atlantic coast into
    north FL and the northern Gulf by evening, while the TX portion of
    the front retreats northward during the afternoon and overnight
    period as a warm front.

    ...Southeast LA into southwest GA and the FL Panhandle...

    Morning thunderstorms are likely to be ongoing across the central
    Gulf coast vicinity into southwest GA and the FL Panhandle ahead of
    the main surface cold front. Stronger storms may be capable of
    marginal hail or gusty winds with this initial activity. Another
    round of thunderstorms may develop during the afternoon along the
    cold front, depending on degree of heating and airmass recovery in
    the wake of morning convection. Deep-layer westerly flow will be
    modest, but increasing speed with height will produce
    elongated/straight hodographs. Furthermore, cool temperatures aloft
    (near -15 C at 500 mb) will support midlevel lapse rates near 7
    C/km, and potential MLCAPE values up to 1000-1500 J/kg. This
    suggests any afternoon convection that develops could pose a risk
    for hail.

    ...TX Hill Country/Edward Plateau vicinity...

    A conditional severe thunderstorm risk (hail/strong gusts) could
    exist Monday afternoon if thunderstorms can develop. Low-level
    moisture will increase as a surface warm front lifts north across
    the region. However, large-scale ascent will be nebulous at best
    with no appreciable height falls or shortwave impulses noted across
    the area. Deep-layer flow also will remain weak. Nevertheless, some
    CAMs guidance depicts a couple of storms developing during the
    afternoon/early evening in weak upslope flow. However, NAM and RAP
    soundings suggest weak capping from 850-700 mb. Coupled with
    negligible large-scale ascent, this could very well suppress
    convective development. However, cold temperatures aloft and steep
    midlevel lapse rates will support sizable instability (MLCAPE near
    2000 J/kg). Furthermore, strong heating into the 80s F will result
    in a deeply mixed boundary layer. If a storm can develop, some
    potential for isolated hail and gusty winds would be possible. The
    overall risk appears too limited/conditional to include severe
    probabilities at this time.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Risk for severe weather appears low at this time across the U.S. on
    Tuesday.

    ...Discussion...
    A very slowly progressing upper pattern -- featuring an eastern U.S.
    trough and a ridge over the interior West -- will persist across the
    U.S. Tuesday. Through the second half of the period, an eastern
    Pacific trough is forecast to impinge on the West Coast.

    At the surface, the primary/remnant surface baroclinic zone -- which
    will have moved off the eastern seaboard prior to the start of the
    period, is forecast to trail westward from Florida to Texas.

    At this time, it appears that showers and a few thunderstorms will
    affect roughly the southern half of Florida during the afternoon, in
    the vicinity of the surface front, and near sea-breeze boundaries
    south of the front. Gusty winds and small hail may occur with one
    or two of the stronger storms.

    Farther west, a very conditional risk for isolated storm development
    appears to exist across central and northern Texas during the
    afternoon. Steep lapse rates/ample CAPE, but modest flow aloft
    suggests disorganized storms, but low/conditional risk for
    near-severe hail and/or wind is apparent. Overnight, elevated
    convection may develop north of the surface front, over the Oklahoma
    vicinity. However, modest CAPE suggests that any hail should remain sub-severe.

    Elsewhere, a few lightning flashes may be possible near Pacific
    Northwest coastal ranges very late in the period, as the upper
    trough approaches. Severe weather is not expected.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are not forecast on Tuesday.

    ...FL Peninsula...
    In the wake of a low-amplitude shortwave impulse passage on D1,
    large-scale ascent appears nebulous across the region. Still,
    pronounced boundary-layer heating should yield at least isolated
    thunderstorms Tuesday afternoon, mainly along the east coast sea
    breeze. Cool mid-level temperatures could support hail growth amid
    moderate buoyancy. Modest deep-layer shear should temper the overall
    threat, but a few slow-moving cells with mostly small hail and
    locally strong gusts may occur over southeast FL.

    ...Southern Great Plains...
    Within the periphery of a broad northwest flow regime across the
    central to eastern states, the surface pattern should be
    characterized by a weak southern High Plains trough and a
    quasi-stationary front extending east across north TX towards the
    Red River. Aggressive guidance suggests potential for isolated
    thunder in north-central TX late afternoon to early evening Tuesday
    along the leading edge of slightly greater boundary-layer moisture.
    Otherwise, a modest low-level warm theta-e advection regime north of
    the surface front could support isolated, mainly elevated thunder
    into Tuesday night.

    ...Southern Appalachians/Piedmont to the Upper Midwest...
    A trio of shortwave impulses migrating through the broad
    north-central to eastern CONUS longwave trough may provide adequate
    ascent for very isolated thunder from mid-afternoon to early evening
    Tuesday. Given the west to northwesterly flow regime, buoyancy is
    expected to remain scant at most. Destabilization will largely be
    driven by peak boundary-layer heating ahead of each respective
    impulse. Convection should largely remain low-topped, but sporadic
    flashes may accompany the more sustained cores. Locally gusty winds
    within well-mixed boundary layers are possible.

    ...Western OR...
    Between a northeast Pacific upper trough and an amplified ridge over
    the interior West, a meridional deep-layer flow regime will exist
    along the Pacific Coast. Some models continue to hint at a narrow
    corridor of 700-mb warm theta-e advection supporting very isolated
    convection west of the Cascades in OR by early morning Wednesday.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PORTIONS
    OF THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe thunderstorms are possible across parts of the
    Pacific Northwest on Wednesday afternoon into the evening.

    ...Synopsis...
    Slow progression of the upper pattern -- a general western
    ridge/eastern trough configuration -- is expected Wednesday.
    Upstream, an eastern Pacific trough/low will strengthen as it nears
    the Pacific Northwest Coast.

    At the surface, a rather ill-defined baroclinic zone will extend
    from Florida to Texas. Meanwhile, a cold front -- associated with a deepening/occluded low off the coast -- will shift into the Pacific
    Northwest through the day.

    ...Pacific Northwest...
    Ahead of the cold front forecast to move eastward across the area
    during the afternoon and evening, daytime heating of a modestly
    moist boundary layer will result in at least marginal
    destabilization. Questions persist regarding the degree of
    low-level moisture, which will likely modulate storm development and
    subsequent intensity.

    With that said, diffluent flow aloft ahead of the approaching upper
    low, and increasingly strong southerly deep-layer flow would
    otherwise suggest a favorable setup for isolated severe storms. At
    this time, will maintain 5%/MRGL risk for hail/wind, as low-level
    flow/shear should remain weak. However, the favorable overall setup
    could yield greater coverage/risk than currently indicated, and thus modifications in subsequent outlooks may be needed.

    ...Far West Texas vicinity...
    A dry/capped airmass and weak shear is expected across the Permian Basin/Transpecos Region/Davis Mountains. However, presuming an
    isolated storm or two can develop near the dryline, steep lapse
    rates aloft would suggest potential for briefly intense updrafts.
    Any storm which would develop could produce hail/wind, but any risk
    is highly conditional and does not appear to warrant inclusion of a
    risk area at this time.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN PARTS OF THE
    PACIFIC NORTHWEST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are possible across parts of the Pacific
    Northwest on Wednesday afternoon and evening. Coverage should be
    mostly isolated, but a more probable corridor for a few supercells
    is apparent west of the Cascades. These may produce large hail, a
    brief tornado, and locally strong gusts.

    ...Pacific Northwest...
    Confidence is sufficient for an upgrade to level 2-SLGT risk for
    large hail, centered along the I-5 corridor in western OR/WA.
    Considered a separate upgrade across northeast OR/southwest WA for
    wind, but confidence is too low to warrant one at this time.

    A vigorous shortwave trough will approach the Pacific Northwest
    coast through the period. A pronounced mid-level jetlet, around
    90-100 kts at 500 mb, should overspread the OR coast to west of the
    Cascades on Wednesday evening. Near record to record high
    temperatures are anticipated downstream amid a preceding highly
    amplified mid/upper ridge shifting east. This combined with well
    above-normal PW values should yield pockets of 500-1000 J/kg MLCAPE
    by Wednesday afternoon. Despite a meridional deep-layer wind
    profile, a few supercells will likely develop west of the Cascades
    as MLCIN wanes towards peak heating. With weak low-level shear,
    large hail should be the primary hazard. A storm or two might
    produce significant severe sizes of 2-2.5 inches before storms
    weaken over the Cascades.

    Farther east, deep-layer shear will be progressively weaker, but the
    boundary layer will be more deeply mixed. Guidance varies greatly
    with the degree of convective coverage in this region into the
    evening. The more aggressive models suggest a thunderstorm cluster
    or two could evolve across northeast OR/southeast WA. Should this
    occur, severe wind gusts would be the primary hazard. Given a subtle delayed/weaker trend in the timing/strength of the parent shortwave
    trough, will maintain broad low probabilities for now.

    ...Lower Rio Grande Valley/South TX...
    Minor mid-level impulses are progged to undercut the highly
    amplified ridge that currently exists from the Rio Grande Valley to
    the Pacific Northwest. Guidance varies in mesoscale spatiotemporal
    aspects of when these impulses cross the Rio Grande into south TX.
    With rich boundary-layer moisture over Deep South TX and potential
    for pronounced diabatic heating, a marginally favorable environment
    for isolated severe hail/wind is apparent. While speeds may be
    modest, a vertically veering wind profile with height could support
    a few slow-moving, transient supercell structures Wednesday
    afternoon/evening.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PORTIONS OF
    SOUTHERN TEXAS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered severe thunderstorms are possible Thursday across parts of
    the southern High Plains, and into southern Texas, as well as over
    the Lower Missouri/Mid-Mississippi Valleys.

    ...Southern High Plains across southern Texas...
    Showers and thunderstorms are forecast to be ongoing early in the
    period, as a slow-moving southern-stream trough moves eastward
    across northern Mexico and Texas through the period. Local risk for
    hail/wind may be ongoing with these storms.

    During the afternoon, isolated high-based convection may develop
    across parts of southeastern New Mexico and Far West Texas. Despite
    modest CAPE/shear, the deep/dry boundary layer may support
    gusty/damaging winds with any stronger storm.

    Farther east, along the Rio Grande, storms will likely develop over
    higher terrain on the Mexican side of the river, and may shift into
    adjacent portions of Texas with time. Meanwhile, remnant outflow
    from earlier convection may focus new storm development, as moderate instability develops due to the moist boundary layer residing
    beneath steep mid-level lapse rates associated with the upper
    system. Low-level southeasterlies veering with height, and
    increasing to 30-plus kt at mid levels, will support
    organized/rotating storms, the strongest of which will be capable of all-hazards severe potential. Risk will likely continue through the
    evening, spreading eastward into southeastern Texas with time.

    ...Middle Missouri Valley area eastward to the Lower Ohio Valley...
    As a warm front advances slowly northward across the central Plains
    and Midwest, several clusters of showers and scattered thunderstorms
    are forecast to develop, and shift east-southeastward within the
    prevailing west-northwesterlies aloft. Isolated afternoon
    surface-based storms may develop over the north-central Kansas
    vicinity, where risk for a few strong wind gusts may occur, along
    with potential for hail. However, more widespread convection during
    the period is forecast north of the warm front. Steep lapse rates
    above the low-level stable air, and amply strong mid-level flow,
    suggests potential for severe-caliber hail.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN SOUTH TX AND

    ...SUMMARY...
    Multiple rounds of severe thunderstorms are possible in south Texas
    with hail and wind as the primary hazards. Across parts of the Lower Missouri/Mid-Mississippi Valleys, isolated to scattered large hail
    and localized severe gusts are possible, mainly during the late
    afternoon and evening.

    ...South TX...
    Extensive deep convection will likely be ongoing across parts of
    south TX Thursday morning, in association with a leading
    low-amplitude shortwave impulse. How far south-southeast attendant
    cold pool/large-scale outflow is uncertain, with the 12Z NAM
    displaced farther northwest than the bulk of preferred guidance.
    This will have profound impacts on spatial extent and amplitude of
    D2 severe potential. Prior overturning/stabilization is likely to be
    much more prominent than indicated by the 12Z NAM.

    Some severe wind/embedded hail threat may accompany the leading
    convection across Deep South TX and the Lower TX Coast, before it
    shifts offshore/weakens through late morning into midday. Trailing
    outflow will serve as a focus for renewed development beyond the
    higher terrain of northeast Mexico. Confidence is low in achieving
    substantial retreat/destabilization north of the outflow. But with
    persistence of weak mid-level troughing upstream and moderate
    mid-level southwesterlies, renewed severe potential may occur across
    parts of south TX Thursday evening/night with slow-moving clusters.
    Embedded supercells could pose a mixed severe hail/wind threat.

    ...Lower MO/Mid-MS Valleys...
    Primary change with this outlook is to add a level 2-SLGT risk
    across parts of the Lower MO Valley for the late afternoon to early
    evening severe threat. Guidance is consistent with sustaining storm
    development along this portion of the warm front, downstream of the
    low-level thermal ridge emanating northeast from the central Great
    Plains. UH/reflectivity signals in 12Z HREF members are seemingly
    subdued relative to the potential thermodynamic environment
    characterized by a confined plume of MLCAPE around 2000 J/kg. This
    region will remain on the southwest fringe of moderate mid-level
    westerlies and hodographs appear modest. Still, adequate veering of
    the wind profile with height in conjunction with rather steep
    mid-level lapse rates should support at least an isolated large hail
    threat, peaking around early evening.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PORTIONS
    OF THE MISSOURI VALLEY AND INTO THE UPPER GREAT LAKES...AND FROM THE
    EASTERN HALF OF TEXAS TO THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY AREA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe thunderstorms are possible across portions of
    eastern and southern Texas and into southern Arkansas and Louisiana
    Friday, and from Nebraska into parts of the Upper Midwest on Friday evening/night.

    ...Synopsis...
    A slow-moving southern-stream short-wave trough will continue
    shifting across the southern Plains Friday, toward the Lower
    Mississippi Valley. Farther north, a series of vorticity maxima
    will move east-northeastward across the north-central U.S. within
    background west-southwesterly northern-stream flow.

    At the surface, a low initially over the northern Plains is forecast
    to move eastward along a surface warm front, reaching the Upper
    Mississippi Valley by evening, and then continuing across the Great
    Lakes through the end of the period.

    ...Southern and eastern Texas east to southwestern Arkansas and
    Louisiana...
    As the upper trough moves slowly eastward across Texas through the
    day, heating beneath the cool air aloft will result in moderate destabilization. As such, ongoing convection early in the period
    will likely increase during the afternoon, particularly in areas
    relatively undisturbed by prior convection/cloud cover.

    While mid-level flow will remain somewhat modest, low level flow
    veering and increasing with height will provide ample shear for
    organized storms and occasional rotation. Along with potential for
    large hail and damaging winds locally, with a few of the strongest
    storms, a tornado or two will also be possible. Once locations of
    more concentrated afternoon/evening storms can be identified in
    future outlooks, an upgrade to SLGT may be required.

    ...Portions of Nebraska northeastward to the Upper Great Lakes...
    Late afternoon/evening thunderstorms are forecast to evolve in the
    vicinity of a baroclinic zone stretching from Nebraska to the Upper
    Great Lakes, as modest airmass destabilization occurs. With ample
    mid-level flow aloft supporting organized storms, hail and locally
    damaging gusts will be possible with a couple of the stronger storms
    over the Mid Missouri Valley area. Farther east, ahead of the low,
    most of the convection will be elevated north of the warm front,
    with hail possible with stronger storms into the overnight hours.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN PARTS OF THE
    CENTRAL STATES...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A low-probability tornado and wind threat remains forecast for
    Friday morning through evening across portions of the western Gulf
    Coast States. Isolated severe hail is possible from the Upper
    Midwest into Nebraska on Friday evening/night.

    ...TX Coastal Plain to LA...
    After extensive preceding convection yesterday through today, poor
    mid-level lapse rates will be prevalent across much the region ahead
    of a low-amplitude mid-level trough characterized by embedded
    convectively modified impulses. This trough should drift
    east-northeast across south to east TX during the period. Within the
    rich western Gulf airmass, surface-based destabilization will be
    tempered and deep-layer shear appears modest. But belts of
    moderately enhanced low-level flow could support low-probability
    tornado and wind potential, mainly during the morning to evening.
    These may linger along the southwest LA coast through Friday night.

    ...Upper Midwest to NE..
    Very steep mid-level lapse rates around 8.5-9 C/km will be prevalent
    atop a pronounced surface warm front over WI/MN to a lee trough in
    the central High Plains. Elevated convective potential appears most
    prominent by Friday evening near the Upper Great Lakes, downstream
    of a low-amplitude shortwave impulse progressing east near the
    international border. Surface temperatures may be close to freezing,
    but small to marginally severe hail is possible with fast-moving,
    highly elevated cells along the northern periphery of the EML plume.

    Farther southwest, the degree of low-level moisture relative to the
    stout EML should mitigate appreciable convective potential until
    evening. Convective coverage will probably be sparse as large-scale
    ascent may be limited, but should eventually increase across NE as
    the low-level jet strengthens Friday night. Overall severe potential
    appears likely to remain marginal.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM NORTHERN
    OKLAHOMA INTO THE LOWER MISSOURI VALLEY...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered severe thunderstorms are possible from northern Oklahoma
    into the Lower Missouri Valley on Saturday evening/night. Large to
    very large hail should be the primary hazard, but a couple of severe
    gusts and possibly a tornado or two may occur.

    ...Northern Oklahoma into parts of the Lower Missouri/Mid
    Mississippi Valleys...
    As the primary vorticity maximum within a complex, mid-level
    short-wave trough shifts into the central Plains through the second
    half of the period (Saturday evening/overnight), a surface frontal
    wave will shift northeastward from the Kansas/Oklahoma border area
    into northern Missouri/southern Iowa. This will allow a cold front
    to advance southeastward across Kansas/Oklahoma through the
    overnight period.

    While strong capping is forecast ahead of the front through the day, suppressing diurnal storm development, the increase in
    forcing/ascent after dark should support isolated to scattered storm development -- initially across northern Oklahoma and southeastern
    Kansas, and then spreading northeastward/eastward through the end of
    the period.

    Steep lapse rates/moderate instability above the capping layer will
    allow developing storms to strengthen/organize -- aided by
    veering/increasing flow with height. A few supercells are expected
    to evolve, with very large hail expected to be the primary risk.
    Locally damaging gusts may also occur, and a tornado or two cannot
    be ruled out through the end of the period.

    ...Southern Oklahoma into central Texas...
    A stout EML/strong cap is forecast to prevail from Oklahoma
    southwestward into central Texas through the period. With only weak large-scale ascent at best expected to spread into central Texas
    late, expectations are that capping will persist in hampering storm
    development in most if not all areas. The NAM (both deterministic
    and convection-allowing runs) supports this scenario -- as it
    continues to indicate no convective development. Meanwhile, the GFS
    is most aggressive in late-period, isolated storm development --
    extending across the entire southern/eastern Oklahoma area and
    southwestward to the Edwards Plateau. Meanwhile, in between these
    two solutions, the ECMWF shows a small area of late-period
    development over the Concho Valley vicinity.

    The takeaway from this is that storm development is likely to remain
    isolated at best, slightly elevated if it does occur, and well after
    dark. With that said, severe risk -- though conditional -- is
    evident if storms do develop, given very steep lapse rates/strong
    CAPE above the capping layer, and favorably strong southwesterly
    flow aloft. Therefore, will maintain MRGL risk across this area, to
    cover the conditional potential for large hail, and possibly a
    strong gust with any storm that could develop.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PARTS OF
    NORTHERN OKLAHOMA...EASTERN KANSAS...WESTERN/CENTRAL MISSOURI...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered severe thunderstorms are possible from northern Oklahoma
    into the Lower Missouri Valley on Saturday evening/night. Large to
    very large hail should be the primary hazard, but a couple of severe
    gusts and possibly a tornado or two may occur.

    ...Synopsis...
    The upper-level pattern across the Rockies and Plains will be
    somewhat disorganized. However, two low-amplitude shortwave troughs
    are expected to eject into the Plains during the period. At the
    surface, an initial surface cyclone in western Kansas will evolve
    into two distinct lows as the two shortwave troughs eject in
    succession. One low will move through the lower
    Missouri/mid-Mississippi Valleys while the other will shift through western/central Oklahoma before weakening by Sunday morning.

    ...Eastern Kansas/western/central Missouri/northern Oklahoma...
    Dewpoints should increase ahead of the dryline/cold front during the
    day. Most model guidance suggests upper 50s to low 60s F will be
    possible. Confidence in storm development is highest in these areas.
    Forcing for ascent from the secondary shortwave trough, surface
    low/dryline, and the cold front should promote widely scattered to
    scattered storms initially from north-central Oklahoma into
    northeast Kansas. Effective shear will be strong enough for
    supercells. Near the triple point into southeast Kansas, supercell
    structures have potential to last longer into the evening given the
    more orthogonal shear vector orientation to the dryline. From the
    Flint Hills into northeast Kansas, supercells would likely persist
    for a short period. Very-large hail is possible with any supercell,
    but will become less likely with time as storms will tend to congeal
    along the cold front in eastern Kansas. Given that the boundary
    layer will be rather well-mixed and the low-level jet will increase
    during the evening, some upscale growth into one or more clusters
    seems probable. Large to very-large hail will be the primary threat.
    Isolated severe/damaging gusts and perhaps a tornado or two are also
    possible. The primary area of greater tornado risk, conditional on
    supercell storm mode, will likely be from northeast Oklahoma into
    southeast Kansas where low-level hodographs will be more favorably curved/enlarged. There is some question how far east strong/severe
    storms will persist into Missouri. The current Slight risk has been
    maintained as is, but model trends will continue to be monitored.

    ...Central/western Oklahoma into Central Texas...
    In Oklahoma, capping from an elevated mixed layer should suppress
    convection along the dryline through the afternoon. With 850-700 mb
    winds generally veered in the vicinity of the dryline, it becomes
    rather uncertain if convection will be able to initiate given
    parcels short residence time in the narrow zone of ascent.
    Furthermore, mid-level ascent will not arrive until after sunset.
    Models continue to show a very weak signal for any development as a
    result. Should a storm or two manage to develop, the environment
    will be conditionally favorable for supercells capable of
    large/very-large hail, severe winds, and perhaps a tornado.

    Farther south into Texas, a similarly capped environment will exist.
    Stronger heating may lead to a few convection initiation attempts
    along the dryline (a scenario hinted at by the ECMWF/GFS as well as
    some CAMS). Additional potential will exist in far southern
    Oklahoma/North Texas near a triple point feature along with a
    strengthening low-level jet core. Isolated large to very-large hail
    and severe gusts would be the primary threats with this activity,
    should it develop.

    ...Lower Missouri into mid-Mississippi Valley...
    The lead shortwave will promote a surface low to deepen in the
    Kansas City vicinity and track roughly north-northeastward through
    the evening. A few, likely elevated, storms could produce large hail
    given the steep lapse rates aloft. An isolated strong/damaging gust
    is also possible but should be spatially limited and conditional on
    a more organized cluster developing. The northern and eastern extent
    of the threat are the most uncertain for these region.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS A BROAD
    AREA CENTERED OVER THE OHIO/MID MISSISSIPPI/TENNESSEE VALLEYS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A widespread/substantial severe-weather episode is forecast across
    an area centered on the Ohio/Mid and Lower Mississippi/Lower
    Missouri/Tennessee River Valleys. Very large hail, damaging winds,
    and strong tornadoes are expected.

    ...Midwest/Ohio Valley south to East Texas and the central Gulf
    Coast states...
    A mid-level short-wave trough is forecast to shift northeastward out
    of the central Plains into the Upper Great Lakes region through the
    first half of the period, with an accompanying surface low deepening
    slowly as it reaches the Lake Michigan vicinity by early evening.
    Meanwhile, a secondary short-wave trough -- comporised of several
    vorticity maxima -- is forecast to move into/across the central and
    southern Plains toward the Mississippi Valley through the second
    half of the period, possibly driving weak frontal wave development
    in the mid Mississippi/lower Ohio Valley vicinity by evening.

    As the cold front crosses western Illinois/Missouri during the day,
    daytime heating will support destabilization, yielding scattered
    thunderstorm development, as the main/initial short-wave trough
    crosses this region. Large hail and damaging winds will become
    increasingly likely as the storms organize, and a few tornadoes will
    also be possible. This convection may evolve into one or more bands
    of organized storms with embedded rotation, with risk for more
    widespread strong/damaging gusts, in addition to embedded tornadoes,
    as the convection shifts across Indiana/southern Lower Michigan, and
    eventually western Ohio through the evening and into the overnight
    hours.

    Farther south, more uncertainty exists -- due to questions regarding
    degree of cloudiness and precipitation ahead of the approaching
    front. NAM output suggests very steep lapse rates aloft will
    overspread the area atop a capped/amply moist boundary layer. As
    the front approaches, and effects of the secondary upper troughing
    impinge gradually on the Lower Mississippi Valley area -- and
    eventually the Mid South/Tennessee Valley, developing storms would
    pose substantial, all-hazards severe risk including very large hail, strong/damaging winds, and potentially strong tornadoes.

    However, some models -- particularly the RAP -- suggest that
    widespread precipitation/weak convection will persist through much
    of the period across the lower Ohio/lower Mississippi/Tennessee
    Valleys through the first half of the period, substantially
    affecting the thermodynamic environment. Along with a
    less-amplified upper flow field -- and weaker shear overall --
    enough uncertainty exists to refrain from a higher-end outlook at
    this time. As such, will maintain ENH risk across a broad area at
    this time, though an upgrade to MDT risk in the lower
    Ohio/Tennessee/Mid Mississippi Valley corridor may be required in
    later outlooks.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS A BROAD
    AREA CENTERED OVER THE OHIO/MID MISSISSIPPI/TENNESSEE VALLEYS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A widespread/substantial severe-weather episode is forecast across
    an area centered on the Ohio/Mid and Lower Mississippi/Lower
    Missouri/Tennessee River Valleys. Very large hail, damaging winds,
    and strong tornadoes are expected.

    ...Synopsis...
    Mid-morning water vapor imagery depicts an upper-level shortwave
    trough across the Southwest that is the leading impulse within a
    longwave trough building across the eastern Pacific/western CONUS.
    This wave is expected to overspread the southern/central Plains
    today before migrating into the Great Lakes region through the day
    tomorrow. A secondary disturbance is expected to move into the
    southern Plains late tomorrow evening into early Monday. At the
    surface, the surface low analyzed across KS is forecast to intensify
    as it moves northeast along a frontal zone into the Great Lakes in
    tandem with the leading upper disturbance. The intensification of
    the low will result in a cold frontal surge across the Midwest/OH
    Valley tomorrow afternoon and across the Mid-MS Valley to Texarkana
    region tomorrow evening. Scattered to widespread thunderstorm
    development is anticipated along and ahead of the frontal zone with
    the potential for widespread large hail/severe winds and several
    tornadoes.

    ...Central TX...
    Latest guidance suggests convection may be ongoing across central TX along/ahead of a migratory dryline early Sunday morning. The
    southern extent of a pronounced EML casts doubt on storm
    coverage/longevity. However, buoyancy and deep-layer wind shear
    should be supportive of supercells with an attendant severe
    hail/wind threat if mature updrafts can develop along the boundary
    as the primary upper-level trough axis passes over the region.

    ...IL, IN, and OH...
    Consensus among recent forecast guidance is that kinematic fields
    will steadily strengthen across the Midwest and middle OH River
    Valley regions through the day as the surface low intensifies.
    Increasing southerly flow ahead of the primary cold front should
    allow for dewpoints in the upper 50s to low 60s to spread into the
    region by mid-afternoon. Scattered thunderstorm development along
    the cold front appears likely as early as 18-20z across IL, and
    while a few initially discrete cells are possible, strong forcing
    along the front should promote upscale growth into an organized line
    by late afternoon. Strong low-level flow (nearly 50 knots 0-1 km
    BWD) may promote bowing segments and embedded mesovorticies within
    the line - especially across northern IN/northwest OH. 30% wind
    probabilities have been expanded northward to account for this
    potential.

    While this is the most probable scenario based on morning guidance,
    it could be complicated by any ongoing showers/thunderstorms and/or
    remnant outflow boundaries associated with nocturnal convection over
    MO late Saturday/early Sunday morning. This could limit diurnal heating/destabilization or may provide pre-frontal foci for
    convective initiation and promote more discrete storm modes.

    ...Mid-MS Valley to Texarkana region...
    Scattered, initially discrete supercells are expected to develop
    from the confluence of the OH/MS rivers southwestward into the
    Texarkana region Sunday afternoon along the cold front and dryline.
    Strong flow associated with the intensifying cyclone will promote
    elongated hodographs featuring nearly uni-directional wind profiles
    and effective bulk shear values on the order of 50-60 knots. This
    will promote splitting supercells with the potential for large to
    very large (2+ inch) hail. A more appreciable supercellular tornado
    threat may emerge through early evening across the lower OH
    Valley/mid-MS Valley where stronger veering in the lowest 1-2 km is
    anticipated amid weak pre-frontal isentropic ascent between 925-850
    mb. While the tornado threat may be maximized through this corridor,
    low confidence in storm mode (due to the potential for splitting cells/destructive interactions) limits confidence in this potential
    to warrant higher probabilities at this time.

    However, upscale growth is anticipated through mid/late evening as
    the secondary upper disturbance migrates into the Texarkana region. Consolidation of multiple clusters into one or more organized linear
    segments is expected as storms push east towards the MS Valley with
    a gradual increase in the potential for damaging/severe winds.
    Additionally, low-level shear will remain favorable for embedded
    mesovorticies as the line pushes into western TN/northern
    MS/northwest AL through the overnight hours.

    ...Florida...
    A weak mid-level impulse (currently over the northern Gulf) is
    expected to meander across northern FL by peak heating. Somewhat
    strong mid-level winds (25-30 knots) associated with this feature
    may provide sufficient organization to thunderstorms developing
    across eastern central/northern FL to pose an isolated hail/wind
    threat.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM VIRGINIA SOUTHWESTWARD TO PARTS OF ALABAMA...GEORGIA AND THE FLORIDA
    PANHANDLE...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Strong/severe thunderstorms -- with threat for fairly widespread
    damaging winds and tornadoes -- are forecast Monday from portions of
    the Northeast southwestward to the central Gulf Coast region.

    ...Parts of eastern/southern New York southward to the central and
    eastern Gulf Coast area...
    An upper trough will continue advancing steadily eastward across the
    eastern half of the U.S. Monday, reaching the Atlantic Coast states
    overnight. Accompanying this system, a cold front just west of the Appalachians at the start of the period is likewise expected to
    progress eastward with time, crossing the Appalachians during the
    day, and then the East Coast states before moving offshore
    overnight.

    Ahead of the advancing front, thunderstorms -- likely accompanied by
    ongoing severe risk -- are forecast to be crossing the central Gulf
    Coast region. Ahead of the ongoing convection, and the advancing
    front, moistening/destabilization is forecast to occur east of the
    mountains, with at least meager surface-based CAPE expected to
    evolve as far north as the southeastern New York vicinity. This
    will support development of thunderstorms near/ahead of the front as
    it advances eastward.

    Favorably strong flow aloft will spread across the region ahead of
    the upper system, supporting organized/severe storms. Northern
    portions of the risk area -- where CAPE should remain modest -- will
    likely experience locally damaging wind gusts as the primary severe
    risk. Farther south, greater instability will support stronger
    convection, including linear bands near the front with
    local/embedded rotation, as well as isolated supercells ahead of the
    boundary. As such, risk for damaging wind gusts will be accompanied
    by potential for hail, and tornadoes appear likely as well given
    ample low-level shear and a relatively moist boundary layer.

    Storms/severe risk should persist to the coast, eventually moving
    offshore overnight.

    1230 PM CDT Sun Mar 30 2025

    Valid 311200Z - 011200Z

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PARTS OF
    THE CENTRAL GULF COAST...SOUTHEAST...AND CAROLINAS/VIRGINIA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Strong/severe thunderstorms -- with a threat for scattered to
    widespread damaging winds and several tornadoes -- are forecast
    Monday from portions of the Northeast southwestward to the central
    Gulf Coast region.

    ...Synopsis...
    The primary synoptic features on Monday will be influenced by
    extensive antecedent and ongoing convection, but in general, one
    significant mid/upper-level shortwave trough will move from the
    lower Great Lakes toward the Canadian Maritimes, while a
    lower-amplitude midlevel shortwave trough will move from the Mid-South/Southeast toward the Carolinas/Mid Atlantic. A deep
    surface low will move across Quebec through the day, as a trailing
    cold front advances southeastward from the Northeast/New England
    into parts of the Southeast.

    ...Southeast into the Carolinas/Virginia...
    While uncertainty remains regarding antecedent convective evolution
    on D1/Sunday, latest guidance generally suggests that an organized
    storm cluster will ongoing Monday morning across parts of LA/MS/AL,
    potentially aided by the trailing shortwave trough moving out of the
    southern Plains. Favorable low-level moisture, moderate downstream
    buoyancy, and 30-50 kt in the 850-700 mb layer will help to maintain
    potential for an organized cluster to move eastward into parts of
    GA/SC through the day, accompanied by a threat for scattered to
    widespread damaging winds. Low-level shear/SRH will be sufficient to
    support some tornado threat as well, both with QLCS circulations and
    also with any embedded supercells. In addition to a tornado threat,
    any sustained supercells would also pose a threat of isolated hail.

    The anticipated storm cluster will tend to outpace the primary cold
    front, with some potential for at least isolated development in the
    wake of early-day convection. Uncertainty remains high regarding the
    severe potential with any second round of convection in this region.

    Farther north into parts of NC/VA, relatively strong heating of a
    moist environment will result in moderate buoyancy by early
    afternoon, though midlevel lapse rates will likely remain weak.
    Scattered thunderstorms are expected to develop and spread eastward,
    with potential for a few organized cells/clusters capable of
    damaging wind. There will be some potential for an increase in
    low-level flow/shear and moisture later in the afternoon, which
    could increase the tornado threat, depending on the timing of storm
    initiation and maturation.

    ...Parts of the Mid Atlantic/Northeast...
    While instability will generally weaken with northward extent,
    scattered thunderstorm development is expected along/ahead of the
    front as far north as parts of NY and southern New England.
    Low/midlevel flow will remain somewhat enhanced along the southern
    periphery of the cyclone across Quebec, and some potential for
    damaging gusts and perhaps a tornado may accompany the strongest
    storms through the day and into the early evening, before the front
    moves offshore.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PORTIONS OF
    THE CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN PLAINS INTO THE MIDWEST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are possible late Tuesday afternoon across the
    central and southern Plains, with the severe threat expected to
    spread eastward Tuesday night. Large to very large hail, severe
    gusts, and a few tornadoes are all possible.

    ...Central and Southern Plains into the Midwest...
    A somewhat complicated convective evolution is expected across parts
    of the central and Southern Plains late Tuesday. A powerful
    mid-level trough and accompanying 100+ kt jet streak are forecast to
    eject eastward over the central Rockies into the Plains late in the
    afternoon and into overnight Wednesday. Strong ascent will aid in
    the development and intensification of a deep lee low helping to
    rapidly draw substantial surface moisture northward late. Southerly
    winds will act on a sizable reservoir of rich moisture with mean W
    of 14-16 g/kg across south Texas and the western Gulf Basin. Higher
    surface dewpoints are forecast to rapidly return northward across
    much of the southern and central Plains. While model disagreement in
    regard to the speed of moisture return persists, an ensemble
    solution of guidance suggests upper 50s to low 60s F dewpoints are
    likely across the central Plains, with mid 60s F possible across the
    southern Plains by 00z.

    Cooling mid-level temperatures from the approaching trough will aid
    in destabilization ahead of a surging dryline, supporting initial
    convective development close to the low across pats of NE and
    northern KS. Steep mid-level lapse rates and elongated hodographs
    suggest the primary risk will be hail, some damaging winds are also
    possible given the relatively dry profile. Additional, likely
    elevated storms are expected later in the evening as low-level warm
    air advection increases and spreads into parts of the Midwest. Hail
    is the primary threat overnight.

    Farther south into KS, OK and western/central TX, a more conditional
    risk for supercell development is expected late afternoon to near
    sunset. Models vary greatly in the degree of mixing and heating near
    a sharpening dryline from south-central KS, into western OK, and
    central TX. Forecast soundings show some residual cloud cover and
    capping may remain east of the boundary through the late afternoon
    associated with the rapid return of moisture. However, some
    broad-scale ascent, strong isolation and solenoidal circulations may
    allow for isolated storm development initially within the more mixed
    air mass farther west. Should this occur, moderate buoyancy and
    strong deep-layer shear would support isolated supercells with a
    risk for large hail and damaging gusts.

    Should storms form, they will track east-northeast into the more
    sheltered air mass Tuesday evening. As moisture continues to
    improve, very strong low-level shear profiles are expected to
    develop with a 50-60 kt southerly low-level jet. All hazards,
    including a few tornadoes, significant hail and damaging gusts are
    possible given increasingly large hodographs (0-1km SRH of 300-500
    m2/s2) Tuesday night.

    Additional storm development will be possible along the cold front
    late Tuesday night which will spread eastward across the Plains and
    potentially approach the Ozarks overnight. Questions remain
    regarding the mode of overnight convection and whether it can remain surface-based, but a conditional risk of all severe hazards could
    persist to the end of the period.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PARTS OF
    CENTRAL AND EASTERN KS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are possible late Tuesday afternoon into
    Tuesday night across the central and southern Plains. The greater
    coverage of storms is expected across parts of central and eastern
    Kansas, but significant severe storms will be possible farther south
    into Oklahoma and north Texas as well. All hazards are possible,
    including the potential for very large hail and a couple strong
    tornadoes.

    ...Synopsis...
    A mid/upper-level trough is forecast to amplify across the
    western/central CONUS on Tuesday, as a powerful jet (80-100 kt at
    500 mb) begins to impinge on the central/southern Great Plains later
    in the period. In response to this trough and jet, a surface cyclone
    will intensify through the day across the central High Plains,
    before moving northeastward toward the lower MO Valley Tuesday
    night.

    Rich low-level moisture will initially be confined to central/south
    TX, but will stream rapidly northward through the day and evening in
    response to the deepening cyclone and a strong low-level jet. The
    magnitude and timing of richer moisture returns remain somewhat
    uncertain, and will be crucial for the potential of storm initiation
    along/east of the dryline through early evening.

    Initial high-based storms are expected to develop during the
    afternoon across parts of central NE, where low-level moisture will
    remain limited but stronger early-day ascent will spread across the
    region. Buoyancy will likely remain modest this far north, but
    increasing low-level and deep-layer flow/shear could support a
    threat of isolated strong/severe gusts and hail as this convection
    spreads east-northeastward into the early evening.

    Farther south, the environment along/east of the dryline into parts
    of western/central KS/OK and northwest TX will become increasingly
    favorable for organized severe storms, as upper 50s to mid 60s F
    dewpoints (greater with south extent) spread northward and
    deep-layer flow fields become rather intense. However, lingering
    CINH will tend to inhibit initiation through much of the afternoon,
    and the late arrival of richer boundary-layer moisture results in
    uncertainty regarding potential for storm development through early
    evening.

    Any supercells that can develop along/east of the dryline would pose
    an initial threat of large to very large hail and localized severe
    gusts. Warm-sector supercells that are able to persist into the
    evening will encounter increasing boundary-layer moisture and
    low-level shear/SRH and would pose an increasing tornado threat. The
    Slight Risk has been maintained across parts of OK/TX, but any
    increase in the signal for storm development along the dryline would necessitate one or more categorical upgrades across this area.

    There is greater confidence in storm coverage during the evening
    into late Tuesday night across parts of eastern KS and western MO.
    A strong (60+ kt) low-level jet will become focused into this
    region, as the surface low begins to move east-northeastward across
    KS. Convection may remain slightly elevated across this area, but
    moderate to locally strong buoyancy and favorable deep-layer shear
    will support a threat of large/very-large hail and severe gusts.
    Surface-based supercells could persist near the southern periphery
    of this cluster, with 0-1 km SRH of 300-500 m2/s2 supporting a
    tornado threat, including the conditional threat of a strong
    tornado. An Enhanced Risk has been added where confidence is
    greatest in storm coverage within an increasingly favorable
    environment.

    Overnight, additional storm development will be possible along the
    cold front into parts of OK/TX, within a very favorable conditional
    environment for organized storms. Given the timing and a tendency
    for deep-layer flow to become parallel to the front, questions
    remain regarding the mode of overnight storms and whether they will
    be surface-based, but some all-hazards severe threat could persist
    through the end of the forecast period.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE LOWER
    GREAT LAKES TO THE OH/MID MS VALLEY...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Numerous severe storms are likely Wednesday and Wednesday night
    across the Lower Great Lakes, Mid Mississippi Valley, and the
    ArkLaTex. Severe wind gusts, very large hail, and strong tornadoes
    are possible.

    ...Synopsis...
    A broad mid-level trough and powerful 100+ kt jet streak will move northeastward across the upper Midwest and Great Lakes regions
    Wednesday. Strong ascent from the advancing upper trough and primary
    shortwave impulse will support a deep surface low moving from the
    northern Plains into the western Great Lakes. A warm front will
    rapidly lift north through the morning and early afternoon across
    parts of eastern IA, MO, IL and IN. 60s F surface dewpoints appear
    likely to reach southern lower MI by the afternoon. A cold front
    attendant to the deep surface cyclone will sweep eastward, with
    widespread strong to severe storms expected to be ongoing
    along/ahead of the front at daybreak.

    ...Upper Midwest and Great Lakes...
    The presence of early morning storms and strong low-level warm
    advection substantially complicates the forecast convective
    evolution across the Great lakes and Midwest. Model guidance varies,
    but some solutions show these storms may re-intensify with the
    diurnal cycle posing a significant wind/tornado risk, given the very
    strong effective shear present. Other guidance suggests this initial
    activity could outrun the better buoyancy with eastward extent,
    potentially limiting the northward extent of return moisture and
    subsequent destabilization. Regardless, very strong synoptic ascent
    and low/deep-layer shear will support a threat of damaging winds and
    tornadoes if surface-based storms can be sustained into the Great
    Lakes and Midwest region during the afternoon and evening. Higher
    severe probabilities for damaging winds and possibly tornadoes may
    be needed in futures outlooks, as confidence in the warm frontal
    position and convective evolution are further resolved.

    ...Ozarks and the Mid MS Valley...
    Farther south, multiple embedded perturbations will overspread parts
    of the Midwest and mid MS and lower OH valleys as the trough and jet
    shift eastward Wednesday and Wednesday night. While displaced south
    of the primary ascent, moderate height falls will take place across
    the western half of a very broad warm sector. A few storms may be
    ongoing along the slow moving Pacific front/dryline across eastern
    OK and western AR/MO early. Re-intensification of this convection is
    possible by mid to late morning as the boundary-layer begins to warm
    and destabilize. Elongated hodographs, though with somewhat veered
    low-level flow, suggest a risk for large hail and a few tornadoes is
    likely. Some upscale growth is also possible with a mixed mode and
    numerous storm interactions along and near the front.

    Additional development appears likely along a per-frontal confluence
    axis, or within the broader warm sector across the western Mid MS
    Valley and lower OH valley by mid afternoon. Strong, but somewhat
    meridonal shear profiles may support a mixed mode of supercells and
    clusters as storms develop within a very favorable parameter space
    for significant severe weather (STP 3+). Hodographs will remain
    large through much of the afternoon and into the evening with ESRH
    of 300-400 m2/s2. This suggests any longer-lived supercells will
    pose a risk for strong tornadoes, in addition to very large hail and
    damaging winds.

    ...Red River and the ArkLaTex...
    Along the southern extent of the dryline/Pacific front, subtle
    height falls may support only isolated storm development. Still a
    couple storms appear likely by early to mid afternoon across parts
    of northeast TX, southern AR and northern LA. Strong mid-level flow,
    robust moisture (dewpoints near 70 F), and large hodographs will
    likely support supercells with all hazards. These storms should
    persist into parts of the mid and lower MS valley overnight with a
    continued severe risk.

    Later in the evening, a secondary low-level jet surge will begin
    across north TX and the Red River vicinity. Warm advection storms
    are likely to develop after 06z as the stalling cold front begins to
    lift back north into OK/TX as a warm front. Steep mid-level lapse
    rates and strong vertical shear will favor elevated
    supercells/clusters with an attended risk for large hail and
    isolated damaging gusts overnight.

    ...THERE IS A MODERATE RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS THE
    MID-MISSISSIPPI VALLEY TO THE LOWER OHIO VALLEY...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Numerous severe storms are likely Wednesday and Wednesday night
    across the southern Great Lakes, Mid Mississippi Valley, and North
    Texas into the ArkLaTex. Severe wind gusts, very large hail, and
    strong tornadoes are possible.

    ...Synopsis...
    A broad mid-level trough and powerful 100+ kt jet streak will
    accelerate northeastward from the central Plains to the Great Lakes
    on Wednesday. Strong ascent from the advancing upper trough and
    primary shortwave impulse will support a deep (~990mb) surface low
    moving from the northern Plains into the western Great Lakes. A warm
    front will rapidly move north through the morning which will allow
    for a broad warm sector featuring 60s F dewpoints to expand as far
    north as eastern Iowa to north-central Ohio/southern Michigan by
    Wednesday afternoon/evening. A cold front attendant to the deep
    surface cyclone will sweep eastward, with widespread strong to
    severe storms expected to be ongoing along/ahead of the front at
    daybreak.

    ...Mid Mississippi Valley to the Lower Ohio Valley...
    Thunderstorms will likely be ongoing from northeast Texas to the
    Upper Midwest at the beginning of the period. East of this activity,
    a warm front will surge rapidly north across Illinois and Indiana
    with mid 60s dewpoints expected across the Mid-Mississippi Valley to
    the Lower Ohio Valley by mid-day. As temperatures warm into the
    upper 70s to low 80s, moderate to strong instability will develop by
    early afternoon. A cap, centered around 700mb, should keep deeper
    convection suppressed for much of the day. However, as height falls
    overspread the warm sector after 21Z and ascent increases in the
    right entrance region of the upper-level jet, this cap will erode. Simultaneously, even richer low-level theta-e, with upper 60s
    dewpoints and mean mixing ratio in excess of 14 g/kg will advect
    into the mid-Mississippi valley. This will provide an environment
    for explosive supercell development given 45-55 knots of effective
    shear. In addition, low-level shear will support the threat for
    tornadoes.

    A broad, strong low-level jet will be present across the warm sector
    for the entire day. However, there will be some relative weakening
    during the 18-22Z period. This may limit the tornado threat
    initially, but by 00Z, most guidance shows a renewed low-level jet strengthening and elongating of the hodographs. Therefore, the
    primary threat could be hail for a few hours during the evening
    before the tornado threat increases by 23Z-00Z and persists into the
    evening hours. Orientation of the storms and potential for training
    do provide some uncertainty, but in the moist environment, expect
    multiple mature supercells to persist into the evening when very
    strong low-level shear develops. Multiple strong to potentially
    intense tornadoes are possible during this period.

    ...North Texas to the ArkLaTex...
    Late Wednesday night (after 06Z Thu), initially elevated supercells
    will likely develop along and north of the front across northwest
    Texas. Hail will be the primary threat initially, but some damaging
    wind threat will also exist from these elevated storms. As they move
    east, and the front starts to move northward, these storms may
    eventually become surface-based early Thursday morning along the Red
    River from north-central Texas to the ArkLaTex.

    ...Upper Midwest to Upper Great Lakes...
    A conditional, potentially potent, severe weather threat could
    materialize across northern Illinois and into southern Michigan on
    Wednesday. This area, closer to the surface low and beneath the very
    strong mid-level jet streak, will have a wind profile favorable for
    all severe weather hazards. However, destabilization will depend
    heavily on the overnight convection Tuesday night from the central
    Plains into Missouri. If morning convection can clear, and
    especially if even broken clouds can permit some heating across some
    of the region, a greater tornado threat is possible across parts of
    northern Illinois.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE SOUTHERN
    PLAINS TO THE MID MS/OH VALLEYS...AND INTO THE MID ATLANTIC...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Several clusters of strong to severe storms are expected along a
    broad frontal zone from the Southern Plains, Mid Mississippi Valley
    to the Ohio/Tennessee Valleys and the Mid Atlantic. Damaging gusts
    and hail are the primary risks, though a few tornadoes are possible.

    ...Synopsis...
    A stalled front will provide the main impetus for severe storm
    development from the ArkLaTex to the Mid Atlantic Thursday and
    Thursday night. Broad troughing over the central US will gradually
    amplify as strong flow aloft overspreads the frontal zone. Deep
    moisture and seasonably warm temperatures along and south of the
    elongated frontal zone will support the potential for strong to
    severe storms over a large area.

    ...ArkLaTex to the MS/TN Valleys...
    Elevated storms are likely to be ongoing near the stalled front
    early in the period across parts of the Red River and ArkLaTex
    vicinity. Flow aloft will turn more southerly, aiding in increasing
    low-level warm advection through the day despite relatively neutral
    mid-level height tendency. With surface dewpoints in the upper 60s
    to low 70s F, moderate buoyancy is likely with only partial diurnal
    heating. This should sustain the early storms, allowing them to
    spread east, and potentially become surface based over parts of the
    MS/TN Valleys. Effective shear of 55+ kt will favor a mix of
    supercells and bowing segments capable of damaging gusts and a few
    tornadoes.

    Additional storms are likely along the dryline over northeast TX and
    within the warm sector across parts of southern AR and northern LA
    by mid afternoon. Deep veering wind profiles suggests these storms
    will likely be supercellular, though the weak capping will favor
    multiple interactions and relatively quick upscale growth into one
    or more clusters with time. Until then, strong low/mid-level shear,
    steep mid-level lapse rates and strong instability will support a
    risk for all hazards.

    With multiple rounds of convection likely to pass through the area,
    confidence in the placement of the front is low. Some consideration
    was given to higher probabilities across parts of northeast TX,
    southern AR and northern LA, given the potential for several
    supercells or a well organized bowing segment.

    Another round of elevated storms is likely late Thursday into early
    Friday as the flow aloft becomes increasingly meridional over the
    southern Plains. Strong low-level warm advection and steep mid-level
    lapse rates will support a risk for large hail as storms overrun the
    stalled front across central and northwest TX, into southern OK
    overnight.

    ...OH Valley into the Mid Atlantic...
    Complications abound from overnight convection likely persisting
    into the daylight hours across the OH Valley. The front is forecast
    to continue to sag south and stall eventually across the OH Valley
    and Mid Atlantic by midday Thursday. South of the boundary low 60s F
    surface dewpoints and some filtered diurnal heating should support
    around 1000 J/kg of MLCAPE. Several embedded mid-level perturbations
    may provide enough ascent for additional convective development
    through the day. Vertical shear will remain strong as increasingly
    zonal winds aloft overspread the frontal zone. Several clusters of
    strong to severe storms are possible along the front with a risk
    primarily for damaging winds and tornado or two, given the
    relatively poor mid-level lapse rates and veered low-level flow.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE
    ARKLATEX TO WESTERN TENNESSEE...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Several clusters of strong to severe storms are expected along a
    broad frontal zone from the Southern Plains, Mid Mississippi Valley
    to the Ohio/Tennessee Valleys and the Mid Atlantic. Damaging gusts
    and hail are the primary risks. The greatest large hail and tornado
    threat (potentially strong) exists from the ArkLaTex to western
    Tennessee.

    ...Synopsis...
    An elongated frontal zone will provide a focus for a severe weather
    threat on Thursday from West Texas to the Mid-Atlantic. Ongoing
    convection of varying intensity will likely be ongoing with its
    outflow modulating the composite frontal location along this zone.
    As a mid-level trough amplifies across the southwestern CONUS,
    mid-level ridging will strengthen across the eastern CONUS with
    height rises across much of the warm sector. A low-level jet will
    intensify through the Lower to Mid-Mississippi Valley through the
    day and should provide enough synoptic ascent for scattered severe
    storms Thursday afternoon and evening from the ArkLatex to western
    Tennessee.

    ...West Texas to North Texas...
    Ongoing strong to severe storms are possible Thursday morning along
    and south of the Red River from Northwest Texas to north-central
    Texas. MUCAPE in excess of 2000 J/kg and very strong effective shear
    (80+ knots) will support the potential for supercells capable of
    large hail and some severe wind gusts. This threat will wane by mid
    day as the low-level jet veers and weakens across North Texas and
    southern Oklahoma.

    Late Thursday night and into Friday morning, the low-level jet is
    expected to strengthen across central Texas as the larger-scale
    mid-level trough starts to advance eastward with a lead impulse
    likely to move across West Texas between 06Z and 12Z. RAP forecast
    soundings show very steep mid-level lapse rates and MUCAPE in excess
    of 2500 J/kg across portions of northwest and West Texas as the
    synoptic scale forcing strengthens. Therefore, several supercells
    capable of large to very large hail and severe wind gusts are
    expected between 06Z and 12Z across portions of West Texas and
    Northwest Texas.

    ...ArkLatex to Western Tennessee...
    An outflow boundary from Day 1/Wednesday convection will likely be
    located somewhere near the LA/AR border at 12Z Thursday. This
    boundary will start to mix north into southern Arkansas and
    northeast Texas as a warm front through the day. A strengthening
    low-level jet, particularly after 18Z, should provide ample forcing
    for supercell development in the vicinity of this warm front during
    the afternoon/evening hours. Strong to potentially extreme
    instability is anticipated south of this boundary amid a rich
    theta-e airmass. Any of these supercells will have the potential for
    large to potentially very large hail. Any supercells which can
    remain along or south of the warm front will pose a threat for all
    severe hazards including the potential for strong tornadoes.
    However, this threat is conditional on surface-based supercell
    residence time. Farther northeast into western Tennessee, northward
    recovery of the warm front remains more uncertain as the cold
    pool/convection from day 1 may persist through the morning. However,
    if the warm front can mix north into western Tennessee, higher
    tornado probabilities could be needed at a later time.

    ...Kentucky to the Mid-Atlantic...
    Day 1 convection and cloud cover will significantly inhibit severe
    weather potential on Day 2 along the frontal zone from Kentucky to
    the Mid-Atlantic. Trimmed probabilities farther south near the Ohio
    River based on latest forecast front location. Otherwise, a moist
    airmass will remain in place along and south of the front/remnant
    outflow. Therefore, only minimal heating will be needed for some
    storms to develop which could be supercellular given 45 to 55 knots
    of effective shear along the frontal zone. Overall height rises
    should keep stronger storm coverage isolated to potentially
    scattered. Some damaging wind/large hail, and perhaps a tornado
    threat may exist within this corridor on Thursday, but the exact
    locations of this threat remains uncertain at this time.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM NORTHEAST
    TEXAS ACROSS MUCH OF ARKANSAS AND INTO FAR SOUTHERN MISSOURI...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Several clusters of strong to severe storms are possible from
    central Texas across the ArkLaTex and into the lower Ohio Valley
    Friday and Friday night. The greatest threat for tornadoes, large
    hail and damaging winds will be from the ArkLaTex across much of
    Arkansas into far southern Missouri, including strong tornado
    potential.

    ...Synopsis...
    On Friday, a broad fetch of south/southwest winds aloft will extend
    from the southern Plains into the Midwest, as an upper low moves
    across AZ/NM. A surface boundary will extend roughly from the OH
    Valley into central TX early on Friday, with a wave of low pressure
    developing during the day over northeast TX/southeast OK. This
    feature will then translate northeastward along the front into IN/OH
    late. As this occurs, a rather rapid warm frontal surge will occur
    over AR and into far southern MO, aided by persistent southerly
    deep-layer winds from surface to 850 mb. This will also result in a
    rapid increase in instability, and shear favorable for supercells
    with tornado potential.

    Behind the low, a cold front will push across the remainder of
    northern TX and into south-central TX. Although post frontal,
    elevated instability will persist, with the influence of the upper
    trough to the west resulting in overnight hail potential into
    central TX.

    ...From Texas into Arkansas and toward the lower Ohio Valley...
    Scattered showers and storms are likely near the front from the Red
    River into northern AR/southern MO early in the day. Sufficient
    instability and lapse rates, along with strong deep-layer shear will
    favor hail potential.

    During the day, areas of heating will occur over the warm sector,
    which will remain very moist. Afternoon supercells are anticipated
    over northeast TX/southeast OK into western AR, with a continuation
    across northern AR/southern MO through evening. This area will
    experience substantial pressure falls with a favorable corridor for
    a strong tornado threat. Depicted model hodographs indicate
    effective SRH over 400 m2/s2 will be common. Given continued
    northward motion of the warm front across southeast MO into the OH
    Valley late, storms should be able to persist/ride along with the
    front with access to unstable air mass.

    Overnight, cool temperatures aloft with the upper trough and a surge
    of elevated theta-e from the southeast and atop the surface cold
    front should favor widespread storms with large hail expected into
    central TX.

    ...THERE IS A MODERATE RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS THE ARKLATEX
    INTO WESTERN ARKANSAS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Several clusters of strong to severe storms are possible from
    central Texas across the ArkLaTex and into the lower Ohio Valley
    Friday and Friday night. The greatest threat for tornadoes, large
    hail and damaging winds will be from the ArkLaTex across western
    Arkansas, including potential for strong to potentially intense
    tornadoes.

    ...Synopsis...
    A mid-level trough, centered across the Southwest and northern New
    Mexico, will start to shift east on Friday. As this occurs a broad,
    strong low-level jet will develop across eastern Texas and into
    Louisiana, Arkansas, and Mississippi. This strengthening lower
    tropospheric flow will aid in the northward advancement of a warm
    front, located from central Texas to the Mid-Mississippi Valley at
    the beginning of the period, to eastern Oklahoma an near the MO/AR
    border by 00Z Sat. This reorientation of the frontal boundary should
    be favorable for supercells with the potential for large hail (some
    2+ inch), damaging wind gusts, and tornadoes (some potentially
    EF3+).

    ...ArkLatex to Western Arkansas...
    As a warm front lifts north across Arkansas through the day, a very
    unstable environment (2500-4000 J/kg MLCAPE) will develop from the
    ArkLaTex into western Arkansas as temperatures warm into the mid 80s
    with dewpoints in the low 70s. Some weak convection may maintain
    along the frontal zone in eastern Oklahoma during the morning and
    early afternoon. However, more robust convective development is not
    anticipated until mid-afternoon when height falls start to
    overspread the region, and the influence of the entrance region of
    the upper-level jet increases ascent. In addition, most high
    resolution guidance indicates a local area of low pressure may
    traverse the frontal zone to near northwest Arkansas by 21Z. The
    combination of these factors, which have decent agreement among 12Z
    guidance, points toward multiple supercells along the frontal zone
    during the mid to late afternoon and into the evening. These
    supercells, in an environment featuring 2500-3500 J/kg MLCAPE and
    0-1km SRH ~400 m2/s2, will support the potential for strong to
    intense tornadoes. Messy storm mode could limit the longevity of any
    of these supercells/tornadoes, but even with limited duration, the
    environment supports a tornado threat.

    A more conditional long-track tornado threat, which would also bring
    greater opportunity for EF3+ tornadoes, exists east of the frontal
    boundary. Synoptic forcing ahead of the boundary is relatively weak,
    but very strong instability (3000-4000 J/kg MLCAPE) is forecast with
    minimal inhibition across the warm sector. Therefore, more discrete,
    open warm-sector supercell development is possible, but will be more
    dependent on mesoscale details which will become more clear in the
    Day 1 timeframe.

    ...Missouri into the Ohio Valley...
    Storm mode and destabilization will be a lot more unclear farther
    northeast along the frontal zone from southern Missouri and into
    western Ohio. Multiple rounds of ongoing storms and new development
    are anticipated through the period in a strongly sheared
    environment, but storm motion will likely keep the majority of
    storms on the cool side of the boundary. Any storms which can stay
    along or south of the boundary will pose some severe weather threat
    with all hazards possible, particularly farther southwest, closer to
    the richer low-level moisture. However, hail, and perhaps some wind
    gusts will be possible with any storms in this region.

    ...West Texas to Central Texas...
    Strong elevated instability (2500-3000 J/kg MUCAPE) is forecast
    across central Texas and into portions of west Texas Friday night
    and into early Saturday morning. This instability, combined with
    very strong shear (70-80 knots per NAM forecast soundings), will
    support elevated supercells capable of large hail (perhaps 2+")
    early Saturday morning as the low-level jet reintensifies and
    orients into central Texas ahead of the approaching mid-level
    trough.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
    THE SABINE VALLEY AND LOWER TO MID MISSISSIPPI VALLEY...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe storms, capable of producing damaging wind gusts, large hail
    and several tornadoes are expected from Saturday into Saturday night
    from the Sabine River Valley northeastward into the lower to mid
    Mississippi and Ohio Valleys. Strong tornadoes, very large hail, and
    severe gusts above 70 mph will be possible in parts of the lower to
    mid Mississippi Valley.

    ...Sabine Valley/Lower to Mid Mississippi Valley...
    A mid-level trough and an associated jet streak will move eastward
    across the southern Plains on Saturday. During the morning, a large
    MCS will be located along a cold front from the Ark-La-Tex
    northeastward into the mid Mississippi Valley. Ahead of the MCS, a
    very moist airmass will be in place with surface dewpoints in the
    upper 60s and lower 70s F. Moderate instability is expected early in
    the day across this moist airmass. Due to the instability already in
    place, thunderstorms along the front will likely develop a severe
    threat Saturday morning. Severe wind gusts and isolated large hail
    are expected to be the initial threats.

    The storms will gradually move eastward into a 50 to 60 knot
    low-level jet, located from central Louisiana northeastward into
    eastern Arkansas. This jet, along with around 50 knots of 0-6 km
    shear, will create favorable deep-layer and low-level shear for
    supercells and tornadoes. Forecast soundings near the axis of the
    low-level jet from late morning into the afternoon on Saturday have
    0-3 Km storm-relative helicity of 250 and 350 m2/s2. This will
    support a tornado threat, associated with supercells and bowing line
    segments. The more intense supercells could produce strong
    tornadoes, with the greatest threat located from central Louisiana
    to southeast Arkansas. The storms could also produce hailstones
    greater than 2 inches in diameter.

    As the entire MCS moves eastward across the lower to mid Mississippi
    Valley during the morning and afternoon, widespread damaging-wind
    gusts will become likely along a line that is expected to become
    increasingly organized during the day. The more intense components
    of the line could produce damaging wind gusts above 70 mph. The
    severe threat with this line is expected to continue from late
    afternoon into the early to mid evening as it moves into the central
    Gulf Coast states.

    ...Ohio Valley...
    A mid-level trough will move eastward across the Upper Midwest on
    Saturday, as a cold front advances southeastward into the Ohio
    Valley. Thunderstorms are expected to be ongoing along the front at
    the start of the period, with storms moving gradually eastward into
    the Ohio Valley during the day. Ahead of the storms, an axis of
    instability is forecast to develop by midday from western Kentucky
    into southeast Indiana and southern Ohio. In addition to the
    instability, low-to-mid level flow is forecast to increase across
    the Ohio Valley during the day, as heights fall associated with the
    approach of the mid-level trough. Forecast soundings near the
    instability axis in western and central Kentucky around midday on
    Saturday have MLCAPE peaking in the 500 to 750 J/kg range, and have
    0-6 km shear around 50 knots. The environment should support
    embedded supercells and bowing line segments. The primary threats
    are expected to be damaging-wind gusts and hail, but an isolated
    tornado threat will also be possible.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM EAST TEXAS
    TO MIDDLE TENNESSEE...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe storms, capable of producing damaging wind gusts, large hail
    and several tornadoes are expected from Saturday into Saturday night
    from the Sabine River Valley northeastward into the lower to mid
    Mississippi and Ohio Valleys. Strong tornadoes, very large hail, and
    severe gusts above 70 mph will be possible in parts of the lower to
    mid Mississippi Valley.

    ...Synopsis...
    A mid-level jet streak, situated near the southern axis of the
    mid-level trough across northern New Mexico will shift northeastward
    through the day and will be centered over Arkansas by 12Z Sunday. An
    elongated surface frontal zone will run parallel to this deep-layer
    flow from South Texas to the Mid-Mississippi Valley. A weak surface
    low is forecast to develop along this frontal zone and move
    northeast through the day Saturday. Large hail, severe wind gusts,
    and tornadoes are possible along and southeast of this surface front
    during the day Saturday and into Saturday night.

    ...East Texas into Middle Tennessee...
    Widespread convection is anticipated Saturday morning along the
    frontal zone from northeast Texas into the Ohio Valley. This
    convection should reinforce the cold air north of the front which
    may result in it continuing to move south through the day. This is a complicating factor to the overall forecast which could limit the
    longevity of surface based storms and thus the overall severe
    weather threat closer to the front from southern Arkansas into
    western Tennessee and northern Mississippi. The HRRR and other CAM
    guidance develops a strong enough surface wave along the front from
    mid-morning to early afternoon which stalls and/or results in a
    slight northward shift of the frontal zone by early afternoon. This
    would result in longer residence time for any surface based storms
    and at least some window for a strong tornado threat. However,
    guidance has trended weaker with the surface wave over the last
    several runs with slightly slower ejection of the mid-level jet max.
    Therefore, am not confident that the front will stall/lift north,
    with a preferred solution similar to the NAM which shows a continual
    southeast movement of the frontal zone through the day Saturday.

    Farther southwest, frontal orientation across east Texas should be
    more supportive for surface-based supercells along and perhaps east
    of the front. Therefore, have expanded 10% tornado probabilities
    farther southwest to address this threat. A line of storms with
    embedded supercells will continue southeast through the evening and
    into the overnight hours across Louisiana and eventually into
    Mississippi. The greatest significant tornado threat will likely be
    associated with any storms which can remain more discrete, ahead of
    the primary frontal development.

    ...Ohio Valley into parts of the central Appalachians...
    The severe weather threat from western Kentucky to southern
    Pennsylvania and western Maryland remains very conditional on
    overnight/morning convection from the Day 1 period. 12Z guidance
    varies greatly in the expansiveness of these thunderstorms tonight
    with stratiform rain and a stable airmass depicted by the HRRR with
    the NAM indicating minimal thunderstorm activity from northern
    Kentucky and southern Ohio eastward which will permit some
    instability and given the shear, potential for some severe weather
    threat Saturday afternoon. A slight/marginal risk seems appropriate
    to handle this conditional threat with some modifications likely
    once Day 1 convective evolution becomes more apparent.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
    THE SOUTHEAST AND SOUTHERN APPALACHIANS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A wind-damage and isolated tornado threat will be possible on Sunday
    across parts of the Southeast. Marginally severe wind gusts will
    also be possible in parts of the southern Appalachians.

    ...Southeast/Southern Appalachians...
    Southwest mid-level flow is forecast across the Southeast on Sunday.
    A mid-level jet streak will move northeastward into the Ohio Valley,
    as a cold front advances eastward across the Gulf Coast states and
    southern Appalachians. A large MCS is expected to be ongoing near
    the front at the start of the period. The MCS is forecast to move
    slowly eastward during the day into a moist and unstable airmass.
    Ahead of the front, surface dewpoints will be in the mid to upper
    60s F over much of the Southeast, and from the mid 50s to lower 60s
    F in the southern Appalachians. The unstable airmass ahead of the
    front is expected to gradually become more stable during the day,
    due to abundant cloud cover and convective outflow. In spite of
    this, the southern edge of the mid-level jet streak will create
    strong deep-layer shear, sufficient for an isolated severe threat

    Forecast soundings near the instability axis in eastern Alabama
    during the afternoon show moderate deep-layer shear, which will
    support storm organization. Ahead of the front, model forecasts have
    a 40 to 55 knot low-level jet persisting through much of the morning
    and afternoon. Near the low-level jet, forecast hodographs are
    curved with 0-3 km storm-relative helicity in the 250 to 350 m2/s2
    range. For this reason, an isolated tornado threat will be possible
    with supercells. However, the primary storm mode is expected to
    remain linear. Line segments that can organize into bowing segments
    will have a wind-damage threat. The severe threat may persist into
    early evening, but should become more isolated as instability
    weakens across the region.

    Further to the north into parts of the southern Appalachians, strong
    deep-layer shear associated with the edge of a mid-level jet streak
    will support some storm organization. However, instability is
    forecast to be very weak, suggesting that any wind-damage threat
    will be marginal.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS CENTERED OVER
    ALABAMA AND INTO PARTS OF ADJACENT STATES...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A wind-damage and isolated tornado threat is possible on Sunday
    across parts of the Southeast. Marginally severe wind gusts will
    also be possible in parts of the southern Appalachians.

    ...Synopsis...
    On Sunday, a positive-tilt trough will move slowly east out of the
    southern Plains and across the lower to mid MS Valley, with
    gradually increasing southwesterlies aloft across the Gulf Coast
    states. A weak surface low will move out of MS and across northern
    AL during the day, then northeastward across the western Carolinas
    overnight. A rain-reinforced front will extend south from the low,
    from northern AL into eastern MS and LA, with another boundary
    extending from TN into VA. A very moist air mass will exist across
    the warm sector, with moderate shear supporting scattered severe
    storms.

    ...Eastern MS and LA...AL...
    A line of thunderstorms will be ongoing along the cold front early
    on Sunday where MUCAPE will be on the order of 1000-1500 J/kg.
    Severe potential will be mitigated somewhat due to the relatively
    warm profiles aloft, however, veering winds with height and around
    50 kt at 850 mb may support embedded supercells within the line,
    with both wind and brief tornado potential. Depending on the degree
    of outflow/convective contamination early in the day, a slightly
    better corridor of tornado threat could materialize.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM PARTS OF
    NORTHERN FLORIDA INTO THE SOUTHERN ATLANTIC SEABOARD...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A severe threat is expected to develop on Monday across parts of
    northern Florida and the southern Atlantic Seaboard.

    ...Northern Florida/Southern Atlantic Seaboard...
    A mid-level trough will move eastward across the lower to mid
    Mississippi Valley on Monday, with southwest flow located over
    eastern parts of the Southeast. At the surface, a cold front will
    advance eastward toward the southern Atlantic Seaboard. An MCS will
    likely be ongoing near the front early in the day from the western
    Florida Panhandle northeastward into western Georgia. Ahead of the
    MCS, a very moist airmass is forecast with surface dewpoints in the
    upper 60s and lower 70s F. Warming surface temperatures across this
    moist airmass will increase instability, with MLCAPE likely reaching
    1000 to 1200 J/kg by midday. This will help to maintain convective
    development within the MCS.

    In addition, a mid-level jet will move northeastward across the
    Southeast on Monday. The right entrance region of this feature will
    overspread the moist sector. In response, model forecasts suggest
    that a rather focused 40 to 50 knot low-level jet will develop
    across northern Florida and southern Georgia from late morning into
    the early afternoon. Near this low-level jet, 0-3 km storm-relative
    helicity is forecast to increase into the 200 to 300 m2/s2 range.
    This, combined with strong deep-layer shear, should support an
    isolated tornado threat with any supercell that can develop.
    Supercells and organized bowing structures may also produce isolated
    severe wind gusts. The severe threat is expected to decrease by
    early evening, as instability weakens across the moist airmass, and
    as the stronger flow shifts northeastward into the western Atlantic.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM NORTHERN
    FLORIDA INTO MUCH OF SOUTHERN GEORGIA AND SOUTH CAROLINA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered storms, some severe, are possible Monday afternoon across
    parts of northern Florida and the southern Atlantic Seaboard.

    ...Synopsis and Discussion...
    A positive-tilt upper trough will sweep across the Southeast on
    Monday, with midlevel jet max intensifying as it begins to phase
    with a deeper trough over the Great Lakes. At the surface, a
    pre-frontal trough will develop over the central Carolinas extending
    south into GA, with mid 60s F dewpoints maintained.

    In concert with the strengthening midlevel wave, a 40-50 kt
    low-level jet is forecast as well, with effective SRH over 200
    m2/s2. Heating will steepen lapse rates and result in MUCAPE to
    around 1000 J/kg ahead of the cold front, which will extend from the
    western Carolinas into central GA at midday.

    Scattered showers and storms are likely to be ongoing along the cold
    front early, with rejuvenation potential as the activity and lift
    encounter the warming air mass to the east.

    The primary mitigating issue will be very poor lapse rates aloft,
    which will limit updraft strength. Still, favorable diurnal timing
    and favorable shear should result in a at least isolated severe
    storms with mainly wind potential. A brief tornado cannot be ruled
    out with the strongest storms during the afternoon.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER PARTS OF
    FAR SOUTHERN FLORIDA AND THE KEYS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated strong to severe storms may occur over far southern Florida
    and the Keys on Tuesday afternoon into the overnight hours.

    ...Synopsis...
    A low-latitude midlevel trough will advance eastward across the Gulf
    during the day, and overspread the Florida Peninsula during the
    overnight hours. At the same time, a cold front will move
    southeastward across southern Florida through the afternoon. Farther
    west, a low-amplitude midlevel trough will track eastward across the
    northern Rockies and adjacent High Plains.

    ...Southern Florida and the Keys...
    Along/ahead of the southward-moving cold front, a moist/uncapped air
    mass will promote showers and thunderstorms across central/southern
    Florida throughout the day. However, poor midlevel lapse rates/weak
    instability and modest deep-layer shear should limit storm
    intensity. By late afternoon into the overnight hours, effective
    shear will increase to around 30 kt ahead of the midlevel trough,
    which may promote a couple strong/severe storm clusters capable of
    locally damaging gusts across far southeast Florida and the Keys.
    However, deep west-southwesterly flow and a developing frontal wave
    over the Gulf Stream should tend to focus the stronger storms
    offshore.

    ...Northern High Plains...
    Ahead of the low-amplitude midlevel trough, low/mid-level lapse
    rates will steepen through the afternoon, while effective shear
    increases to around 30 kt. Weak instability limits confidence in the
    severe threat, though locally strong wind gusts could accompany
    convection as it spreads eastward amid the steep lapse rates through
    the afternoon.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated strong storms may occur over far southern Florida and the
    Keys late Tuesday and into the overnight hours, and from southeast
    Montana to Black Hills.

    ...Synopsis and Discussion...
    A low-latitude shortwave trough will move east across the Gulf while
    a front sinks south across far southern FL. Modest heating may yield
    MUCAPE around 1000 J/kg over far southern FL, supporting daytime
    storms near and north of the front. Midlevel temperatures/lapse
    rates do not appear particularly favorable for hail. Ahead of the
    upper wave, 850 mb flow will average 20-25 kt, with most of the
    stronger winds above 500 mb. As such, severe gusts from
    boundary-layer mixing appear unlikely. Small/non-severe hail or
    locally strong gusts will be possible.

    Overnight, as the upper trough and leading midlevel speed max
    approach the FL Peninsula, a minimal increase in lift may result in
    increased storm coverage near the Keys and from the FL Straits into
    the Bahamas.

    Elsewhere, afternoon and evening thunderstorms are likely from
    southeast MT/northeast WY into western SD late. Here, very steep
    lapse rates and a progressive/low-amplitude wave will favor storms
    forming near the Billings vicinity with scattered cells producing small/sub-severe hail and locally gusty winds.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PORTIONS OF
    THE MID/DEEP SOUTH AND TENNESSEE VALLEY...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered severe storms capable of producing large hail and damaging
    gusts will be possible across portions of the Mid/Deep South and
    Tennessee Valley.

    ...Synopsis...
    A positively tiled large-scale trough will advance southeastward
    from the Upper MS Valley/Midwest to the OH/TN Valleys through the
    period. Within the base of the trough, a 70-80-kt west-northwesterly
    midlevel jet will overspread the Mid/Deep South and TN Valley. In
    response, lower/middle 50s F dewpoints will stream northeastward
    along/ahead of a southeastward-moving cold front.

    ...Mid/Deep South and Tennessee Valley...
    Along/ahead of the front, ample diurnal heating of the partially
    modified Gulf moisture beneath steep midlevel lapse rates (upwards
    of 8 C/km) will contribute to around 1000 J/kg MLCAPE. As ascent in
    the left-exit region of the midlevel jet impinges on the
    destabilizing air mass along/ahead of the front, a band of scattered thunderstorms will develop across the Mid-South during the
    afternoon. 50-60 kt of effective shear (characterized by a
    long/straight hodograph) oriented perpendicular to the front will
    favor discrete/semi-discrete supercells initially. The primary
    concern with these storms will be large hail to around 1.5-1.75
    inches.

    As storms track/develop southeastward amid steep boundary-layer
    lapse rates, strengthening/expanding cold pools and a more
    boundary-parallel component of the midlevel flow will promote
    upscale growth into clusters and eventually a broken line into the
    evening hours. As a result, damaging wind gusts will become an
    increasing concern, before low-level static stability increases
    (owing to nocturnal cooling) with southeastward extent.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM EASTERN
    KENTUCKY AND OHIO INTO THE CENTRAL APPALACHIANS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered strong to severe storms are possible Monday from
    mid-afternoon to mid-evening across parts of the Upper Ohio Valley
    and central Appalachians.

    ...Ohio Valley into the Mid Atlantic...
    An upper low will deepen from Lake Superior into eastern Ontario on
    Monday, with an amplifying upper trough from the northern Plains
    into the OH Valley late.

    At the surface, a cold front will extend south from the Ontario low,
    affecting OH and KY prior to 00Z. A narrow zone of mid to upper 50s
    F dewpoints will spread northeastward ahead of the front, with
    pockets of heating. This will lead to 1000-1500 J/kg MUCAPE from KY
    into WV, with lower values northward across OH and into western PA.

    Gradual height falls along with increasing midlevel moisture will
    overspread the diurnally prepared boundary layer over KY, southern
    OH and WV, with scattered strong to severe storms developing by late
    afternoon.

    Strong deep-layer shear will favor cellular activity, with a couple
    supercells possible. Despite the primarily veered/westerly flow, any
    rightward propagation off the hodograph will result in favorable
    SRH, possibly supporting a brief tornado. Otherwise, hail is
    expected with the stronger cores, with localized wind damage.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are not expected on Tuesday or Tuesday night.

    ...Northeast...
    Sporadic, low-topped thunderstorms may develop towards midday
    through the afternoon within a post-frontal regime as 500-mb
    temperatures fall at/below -28 C. This should occur to the west of
    an intense mid-level jet that will progress quickly across the
    Mid-Atlantic States and off the coast by evening. While the boundary
    layer will be drying, scant buoyancy may persist where mid-level
    lapse rates abruptly steepen. Much of the convection will probably
    remain as scattered showers, with thunderstorm coverage expected to
    be very isolated. Locally strong gusts could accompany this weak
    convection at peak heating across southern New England.

    ...Southwest...
    A low-amplitude shortwave impulse should dampen as it moves from the
    Lower CO Valley towards the southern Rockies. But adequate
    large-scale ascent coupled with scant buoyancy should yield isolated thunderstorms, mainly on Tuesday afternoon. Farther west, a separate
    shortwave trough will approach but remain offshore of the CA coast.
    Greater but still weak buoyancy from the Sierra NV Mountains across
    northern CA may support isolated afternoon thunderstorms. Weak
    deep-layer shear/ascent will minimize severe potential.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are not expected on Tuesday or Tuesday night.

    ...Northeast...
    A post-frontal regime will be in place across the Northeast Tuesday.
    Flow aloft will remain modest with mid-level cooling through the
    day. This will support potential for redevelopment of scattered
    thunderstorm activity by the afternoon. Given post-frontal drying
    conditions and weak buoyancy, this should yield primarily sub-severe
    low-topped convection, though occasional gusty winds will be
    possible.

    ...Southwest...
    A mid-level low will approach the West Coast, with a belt of
    mid-level flow overspreading southern California into southern
    Nevada. Ahead of this feature, a weak shortwave trough will move
    across the Lower Colorado Valley towards the southern Rockies.
    Enough mid-level moisture in place with large-scale ascent will
    allow for isolated to scattered thunderstorm activity across the
    northern Sierra and across the Four Corners region. As shear
    profiles will be weak, storms are not expected to be severe.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PORTIONS OF
    THE MID-MISSISSIPPI VALLEY TO NORTHERN GEORGIA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered severe storms capable of producing large hail and damaging
    gusts will be possible across portions of the Mid/Deep South and
    Tennessee Valley on Thursday.

    ...Synopsis...
    On Thursday, an elongated, strong mid-level jet streak across the
    central Plains will help amplify the trough across the eastern
    CONUS. Very cold mid-level temperatures (-25 to -26C at 500mb) will
    overspread the Mid-Mississippi Valley into the Tennessee Valley. At
    the surface, lower/middle 50s F dewpoints will stream northeastward
    along/ahead of a southeastward-moving cold front.

    ...Mid/Deep South and Tennessee Valley...
    Ahead of a southward moving surface front, low-level moistening and
    substantial diurnal heating will result in moderate instability
    (1000 to 1500 J/kg MLCAPE) from Arkansas into Tennessee, with weaker destabilization farther northeast into the Lower Ohio River Valley.
    A broad region of ascent will develop across the warm sector by
    early Thursday afternoon within the left exit region of the
    upper-level jet streak. This should result in scattered
    thunderstorms from Arkansas/Missouri to Indiana, eastern Kentucky
    and perhaps southern Ohio. The best overlap between the greatest
    instability and shear will be from eastern Arkansas eastward to
    northern Georgia where the slight risk is present.

    Long/straight hodographs will initially support splitting supercells
    with a threat for large hail. In addition, these supercells will
    have some wind threat given the steep lapse rates and well-mixed
    boundary layer. This thermodynamic profile will support eventual
    upscale growth into one or more line segments with a primary
    damaging wind threat expected by late afternoon and into the
    evening.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN PARTS OF THE SOUTHEAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe hail and damaging winds are possible across parts of
    the Southeast from late morning through the afternoon Friday.

    ...Eastern NC vicinity...
    A leading shortwave impulse rotating through the basal portion of a
    broader eastern U.S. longwave trough will yield strengthening
    forcing for ascent during the late morning. Some 00Z HREF members,
    notably the NSSL and FV3 indicate thunderstorm development
    increasing early in the day within the low-level warm conveyor ahead
    of a deepening but weak surface cyclone. Should this occur, it would
    be ill-timed with respect to peak boundary-layer heating and
    displaced east of the moderate mid-level lapse rate plume. But it
    would be coincident with modifying moisture return characterized by
    mid to upper 50s dew points over eastern NC.

    Other guidance indicates a separate round of afternoon storm
    development confined to near the surface cyclone in the eastern
    Piedmont of NC, while a pronounced mid-level dry slot limits storm
    development with southward extent into SC/GA. The degree of surface
    heating along the northwest extent of the weak buoyancy plume is
    quite uncertain. But mid-level lapse rates approaching 7 C/km and
    moderate deep-layer shear may yield isolated severe hail and locally
    strong gusts within afternoon storms.

    ...North FL...
    Greater boundary-layer heating is anticipated ahead of the trailing
    portion of the cold front that extends into the northeast Gulf.
    Consensus of guidance suggests this heating will aid in isolated to
    scattered thunderstorms during the afternoon, south of the mid-level
    dry slot. While low-level flow will be veered and weak ahead of the
    front, pronounced deep-layer speed shear is expected amid a 60-70 kt
    500-mb jet. This should favor mid-level rotation in a few cells with
    a threat of isolated large hail and localized damaging winds. This
    activity should shift off the Atlantic Coast or weaken over land by
    early evening.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE
    EASTERN CAROLINAS INTO FAR SOUTHEAST VIRGINIA AND FOR NORTHERN
    FLORIDA AND FAR SOUTHEAST GEORGIA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated strong to locally severe thunderstorms are possible from
    the eastern Carolinas into southeast Virginia and across far
    southeast Georgia and northern Florida.

    ...Eastern Carolinas into Southeast Virginia...
    A line of showers with embedded thunderstorms is approaching the
    southern Appalachians by mid-day Thursday along a low-mid-level
    front which will continue east through the day. Some intensification
    of these thunderstorms (or additional convective development along
    the mountains) is expected today which will impact the Friday/Day 2
    forecast. As the remnants of this front/mountain convection interact
    with better low-level moisture across eastern North Carolina later
    tonight, some intensification of these storms are anticipated. While
    these storms likely will remain sub-severe without any surface
    heating and thus minimal instability, the intensification should
    assist in the remnant outflow boundary/front moving offshore during
    the morning hours on Friday. This will have a stabilizing effect
    which results in a conditional severe threat on Day 2/Friday.

    Some guidance shows a strengthening surface low which results in
    substantial return flow across the eastern Carolinas, which will
    result in low 60s dewpoints and weak to moderate instability by
    later morning to early afternoon. However, if this stronger
    cyclogenesis does not occur (as forecast by several hi-res models
    this morning), the instability and severe weather threat will remain
    mostly offshore. No modifications were made to the marginal risk,
    but a 2% tornado probability was added for parts of eastern North
    Carolina. If stronger southerly/southeasterly flow and low 60s
    dewpoints can develop ahead of a strengthening surface low, a
    tornado is possible.

    Overall, a few strong to isolated severe storms are possible with a
    primary threat of large hail. However, this threat is conditional on destabilization, which remains questionable at this time.

    ...Southeast Georgia and northern Florida...
    Strong heating is anticipated along a frontal zone from southeast
    Georgia to northern Florida Friday afternoon. Forecast soundings
    show 500 to 750 J/kg MLCAPE with a well-mixed boundary layer
    extending to near 3km. Overall lack of moisture should limit
    instability and storm intensity, but 35 to 45 knots of shear will
    support some storm organization. Therefore, the strongest storms
    could exhibit some updraft rotation with an increased large
    hail/severe wind threat, but overall expect the threat to remain
    isolated.

    Isolated severe gusts to 65 mph are possible from the Big Horns to
    the Black Hills during the late afternoon to mid-evening Saturday.

    ...Big Horns to the Black Hills...
    A shortwave trough over WA/southern BC at 12Z Saturday will progress
    across the northern Rockies and MT. Mid-level height falls will
    overspread the northern High Plains during peak diurnal heating.
    Despite only scant buoyancy, the strengthening large-scale ascent
    will support scattered thunderstorms by late afternoon. With a belt
    of strong mid-level west-southwesterlies, a couple low-topped,
    high-based supercells are possible. Deeply mixed thermodynamic
    profiles to the east-southeast of the Big Horns should foster a
    threat for strong to localized 50-55 kt gusts before convection
    wanes after sunset.

    ...Mid-MO Valley to the Upper Midwest...
    As the low-level jet strengthens across the southern to central
    Great Plains Saturday night, sufficient ascent may support isolated thunderstorms overnight. But with poor-quality moisture return
    relative to the stout EML, it is uncertain if/where convection will
    be sustained. Uninhibited parcels may be rather elevated and with
    the expectation of weak buoyancy at most, severe hail potential
    appears limited.

    Isolated severe gusts are possible from the Big Horns to the Black

    ...Southeast Montana/northeast Wyoming to the Black Hills...
    A mid-level shortwave trough across the Pacific Northwest/southern
    British Columbia will advance east through the day Saturday. Height
    falls across northern Wyoming and southeast Montana will lead to
    strengthening ascent by late afternoon. Strong heating, featuring
    temperatures in the low 70s, will support sufficient instability for
    scattered thunderstorm activity. The deeply-mixed thermodynamic
    profile will support the potential for some severe wind gusts from
    this activity. This threat should quickly wane after sunset as the
    boundary layer cools.

    ...Mid-MO Valley to the Upper Midwest...
    A synoptically strong and nocturnally enhanced low-level jet will
    strengthen Saturday night across the central Plains. This will
    result in strengthening isentropic ascent in addition to height
    falls ahead of the approaching mid-level trough. Despite favorable
    synoptic scale lift, most forecast soundings show limited moisture
    and a lack of elevated instability. Some guidance has higher quality
    moisture and develops isolated thunderstorms, but even if storms
    develop, instability will likely be too weak to support more than
    small hail.

    Severe thunderstorms are not expected on Sunday or Sunday night.

    ...Upper MS Valley to the Great Lakes...
    Isolated, elevated thunderstorms are expected to be the predominant
    convective scenario on Sunday. An amplifying shortwave trough will
    move east across northern portions of the Great Plains and Upper
    Midwest. This will yield deepening of a surface cyclone from the
    central Plains to Lake Superior. Despite this amplification, poor
    quality boundary-layer moisture return relative to a stout EML
    appears likely to inhibit surface-based storm development through
    the period. Thin, uncapped buoyancy will probably be relegated to
    parcels around 700 mb. This will expand east during the day from the
    Upper Midwest into the Great Lakes. Small hail is possible, mainly
    across the Upper MS Valley, where fast flow will exist in the
    cloud-bearing layer.

    ...CO to MO...
    Isolated thunderstorms are possible in CO by late afternoon Sunday
    within a post-frontal environment characterized by limited low-level
    moisture and meager buoyancy. Very isolated thunderstorms may
    develop Sunday night into Monday morning with eastward extent across
    KS to MO. Scant elevated buoyancy may develop as 700-mb
    frontogenesis strengthens within a highly diffluent upper-level flow
    regime, atop an increasingly post-frontal stable surface.

    into OK.

    Given the southeastern surface high, moisture return will be limited
    ahead of the Plains feature. However, cooling aloft and steepening
    of lapse rates, as well as lift will allow for elevated instability
    to develop into the upper MS Valley and Great Lakes, supporting
    isolated to scattered thunderstorms overnight. Weak instability
    should preclude any severe threat.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN THE UPPER OH
    VALLEY AND CENTRAL APPALACHIANS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A couple tornadoes along with scattered damaging winds and large
    hail are possible from mid-afternoon to mid-evening across parts of
    the Upper Ohio Valley and central Appalachians.

    ...Synopsis...
    A shortwave trough will further amplify over the Upper Great Lakes
    towards the ON/QC border, supporting gradual deepening of a surface
    cyclone from 995 to 990 mb. In its wake, a separate shortwave
    impulse and intense mid-level jetlet will dive southeast across the
    northern Great Plains towards the Lower OH Valley. A surface cold
    front will arc south across the Lower Great Lakes and then
    southwestward through the Mid-South by late afternoon Monday.

    ...OH Valley to the Mid-Atlantic States...
    While guidance has largely been consistent with synoptic-scale
    pattern over the past several days, large spread exists in the
    degree of boundary-layer heating on Monday afternoon ahead of the
    surface cold front. For example, the 00Z NSSL-ARW and HRW-FV3 are
    10-15 F colder with warm-moist sector surface temps compared to the
    00Z HRRR and HRW-ARW. These latter models simulate multiple
    long-track supercells. This heating discrepancy, along with low
    confidence in the aggressive low-level moistening indicated by most
    guidance beneath an expansive EML, mitigates a categorical upgrade
    this cycle. But all three hazards have been highlighted with level
    2-SLGT risk probabilities.

    Overall expectation is for a ribbon of mid to upper 50s surface dew
    points to advect as far northeast as the Upper OH Valley. If robust boundary-layer heating indeed occurs, this would support MLCAPE near
    1000 J/kg. The initial presence of the EML may delay storm
    development along the front until mid afternoon. But guidance
    consensus suggests at least scattered thunderstorms should form in
    the Central to Upper OH Valley vicinity as mid-level height falls
    increase atop the modestly convergent surface front. The approach of
    an intense mid-level jet will support fast-moving convection, along
    with effective bulk shear above 60 kts. Despite veered surface
    winds, low-level hodograph curvature should be moderately enlarged.

    A few supercells seem plausible in this setup, a couple of which may
    become long-tracked. These appear most probable across the southeast
    OH to northern WV vicinity, where tornado potential should be
    maximized during the early evening. Otherwise, a mix of large hail
    and damaging wind swaths are expected. East of the higher terrain in MD/northern VA, remnant steep low-level lapse rates may support
    isolated damaging gusts and marginal hail, before convection
    wanes/becomes increasingly elevated Monday night.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN A PORTION OF
    THE CENTRAL GREAT PLAINS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe thunderstorms, with a primary threat of large hail,
    are possible on Wednesday evening/night across parts of the central
    Great Plains.

    ...Synopsis...
    A northern-stream shortwave trough is expected to dig southward from
    the Canadian Rockies into the northern Intermountain West. A
    southern-stream, lower-amplitude shortwave trough will drift towards
    the southern CA coast. A pair of lee cyclones will develop near the
    Black Hills and the CO/KS border area by Wednesday evening.

    ...Central Great Plains...
    Just-in-time modified moisture return from south TX is anticipated
    by early evening, yielding potential for isolated high-based
    thunderstorm development near the southwest KS/far northwest OK
    border area. This portion of the dryline, to the east-southeast of
    the aforementioned cyclone, will have the best chance of sustaining
    deep convection with overlap of the low-level thermal ridge/weak
    buoyancy. Substantial veering of the wind profile with height could
    support a high-based supercell or two with severe hail/wind.

    The 00Z HRW-FV3 is a distinct outlier in indicating potential for a
    discrete supercell deeper into the evening across south-central KS,
    that impinges on greater low-level moisture amid enlarged low-level
    hodograph curvature. Bulk of guidance otherwise suggests a
    substantial increase in MLCIN after sunset as the low-level jet
    intensifies from west TX into KS, with convection probably
    struggling given the sub-optimal moisture relative to the stout EML.

    Elevated convection should form later Wednesday night into early
    morning Thursday, along the leading edge of the 700-mb warm front
    and towards the exit region of the low-level jet. Although this
    convection may remain rooted near 700 mb, favorable speed shear
    through the cloud-bearing layer should offer a risk of isolated
    severe hail overnight towards the Lower MO Valley.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS PORTIONS OF THE
    CENTRAL GREAT PLAINS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe thunderstorms, with a primary threat of large hail,
    are possible on Wednesday evening/night across parts of the central
    Great Plains.

    ...Synopsis...
    A progressive open wave trough will shift southward from Canada
    before phasing with an upper-level low off the west coast of
    California on Wednesday. The subtropical jet will spread eastward
    across the central Plains, with several embedded shortwave
    disturbances rippling through the flow. Westerly flow across the central/southern Rockies will promote lee cyclogenesis late in the
    period, with an increase in a southerly low-level jet across the southern/central Plains.

    ...Central Great Plains...
    Southerly return flow will bring an increase of moisture into the
    central Plains, with potential for isolated to scattered
    thunderstorm development. A limiting factor remains increasing CIN
    and low-level stability beneath a strong EML. Regardless, agreement
    has increased on convective initiation occurring near the dryline
    across portions of central/southern Kansas late in the period. Given
    the elevated nature of this convection, the greatest risk will be
    for large hail. This will continue into the lower MO Valley through
    the end of the period Thursday morning.

    Earlier in the period, some potential exists for development further
    south near the OK/KS border toward the end of peak heating in the
    early evening. A few hi-res solutions have hinted at development of
    a supercell or two within this region, apparent in UH tracks from
    the 12z HREF. Conditionally, an established supercell in this region
    could support very large hail, given steep lapse rates aloft and
    ample shear/CAPE.

    ...Elsewhere...
    Isolated to scattered thunderstorms are expected from
    northern/central California into the Great Basin and northern
    Rockies through the period. These are expected to be sub-severe
    given weak shear profiles.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN PARTS OF THE
    CORN BELT STATES...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated to scattered severe thunderstorms are possible, mainly from
    late afternoon Thursday into the evening, across parts of the Corn
    Belt States. Large to very large hail, a couple tornadoes, and
    localized damaging winds may occur.

    ...Synopsis...
    A longwave trough, consisting of multiple embedded shortwave
    impulses, will drift east from the southern Prairie Provinces to the
    Lower CO Valley. A lee surface cyclone will be anchored over the
    central High Plains. Minor, triple-point surface waves are expected
    along the baroclinic zone in far northeast KS and southern MN on
    Thursday afternoon.

    ...Corn Belt States...
    Along the leading edge of a stout EML and 700-mb warm front,
    isolated to scattered elevated convection should be ongoing at 12Z
    Thursday across parts of the lower MO Valley. This activity may pose
    a threat for isolated severe hail before weakening towards midday.

    Neutral mid-level height change is anticipated in its wake along the aforementioned baroclinic zone. Low-level warm theta-e advection and convergence along the front will be primary drivers of convective
    potential from late afternoon into Thursday night. Guidance spread
    is quite large for a D2 forecast with the thermodynamic setup ahead
    of the front, especially across IA to the northeast of the
    triple-point dryline intersection in northeast KS. The 00Z NAM is
    around 20 F cooler with surface temps at peak heating relative to
    the bulk of guidance that have very warm and well-mixed boundary
    layers. This has substantial impact on the spatial extent and
    amplitude of MLCAPE/MLCIN ahead of the front. It seems probable that
    mid to upper 50s surface dew points will spread as far north as
    southern MN. With a lean towards the more well-mixed guidance, this
    should support a corridor of moderate buoyancy with MLCAPE from
    1500-2500 J/kg.

    The most probable signal for late-afternoon storm development is
    along the baroclinic zone from southeast NE into southern MN,
    coincident with supercell wind profiles. Weak low-level winds
    initially in the southeast NE region could support a long-track
    supercell capable of producing a very large hail swath. Otherwise,
    severe to sporadic significant severe hail seems plausible with late
    afternoon to early evening storms, along with localized severe gusts
    and a low-confidence tornado threat.

    Coverage of elevated storms may remain subdued on Thursday night.
    Despite a strong low-level jet across OK/KS to the Mid-MS Valley, restrengthening of the EML may inhibit sustained storms.
    Conditionally, the environment will support elevated supercells with
    a primary threat of large hail.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER PORTIONS OF
    THE EASTERN CENTRAL PLAINS AND UPPER MIDWEST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated to scattered severe thunderstorms are possible, mainly from
    late afternoon Thursday into the evening, across parts of the
    eastern Central Plains to the Upper Midwest. Large to very large
    hail and localized damaging winds are the primary risks.

    ...Synopsis...
    A broad open wave trough will extend from the western Canada into
    the Northern Rockies and Great Basin on Thursday, with broad
    southwesterly flow extending from the Southwest through the
    central/northern Plains. A surface cyclone is expected to develop
    across western Kansas, with a diffuse frontal boundary extending
    southwest to northeast across the Central Plains into the Midwest.
    The triple point near the low/dryline/front interface is expected to
    be the focus point for convective development by the afternoon and
    evening from eastern Nebraska to Iowa and into Minnesota.

    ...Eastern Central Plains into the Upper Midwest...
    As the low develops across western Kansas late Wednesday into
    Thursday, southerly return flow will bring moisture northward into
    the central Plains. Afternoon thunderstorm development is expected
    as differential heating is maximized along a frontal boundary across
    eastern Nebraska Thursday afternoon. This region will be
    characterized by dew points in the 50s to 60s, with MLCAPE around
    1500-2500 J/kg by the afternoon amid a plume of steep low to
    mid-level lapse rates. While MLCIN is expected to increase across
    portions of Iowa, a corridor of open warm sector is expected to
    develop across eastern Nebraska where wind profiles will support
    supercells. These supercells may be initially surface based, capable
    of large hail (some very large 2"+), damaging wind, and perhaps a
    tornado. Boundary parallel flow will likely lead to some
    undercutting of storms as well as storm motions that favor training
    cells, which will likely limit the tornado threat into the evening
    while potential for large hail and damaging wind continues with
    eastward extent.

    A few surface based cells may develop as far north as southwestern
    Minnesota. Moisture profiles are less favorable this far northward
    but convergence along the front/surface trough along with favorable
    wind profiles will support some risk for large hail, damaging wind,
    and perhaps a tornado.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM LOWER
    MICHIGAN TO THE SOUTHERN PLAINS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered severe thunderstorms are possible from the parts of the
    Great Lakes to the southern Great Plains, mainly during the late
    afternoon Friday into Friday night. Large hail and isolated severe
    gusts will be the main hazards with this activity.

    ...Synopsis...

    A positive-tilt large-scale upper trough will pivot south and east
    across portions of the north-central to western U.S. on Friday. A
    swath of 60-80 kt 500 mb flow will stretch from the southern Rockies
    to the Great Lakes ahead of the upper trough. At the surface, low
    pressure will develop northeast from the KS/MO/IA vicinity Friday
    morning, to southern Ontario/Quebec by early Saturday. As this
    occurs, a cold front will develop southeast across portions of the
    Mid-MS Valley/Great Lakes and southern Plains. A weak secondary
    surface low likely will develop across west TX, where a dryline will
    extend southward from the eastern Panhandle to the Big Bend region.


    Southerly low-level flow will transport modest boundary-layer
    moisture northward ahead of these surface features and beneath fast
    mid/upper southwesterly flow. This will support scattered severe
    storms late Friday afternoon into the overnight hours from portions
    of the southern Plains to the Great Lakes.

    ...Lower-MO/Mid-MS Valley to Great Lakes...

    Elevated thunderstorms north of a warm front will likely be ongoing
    during the morning into the afternoon across WI/northern MI. This
    activity may pose a risk for marginally severe hail.

    Meanwhile, a shortwave upper trough embedded within the northern
    branch of the larger-scale western U.S. upper trough will shift east
    across the northern Plains and Upper Midwest during the
    evening/overnight. This will facilitate the eastward progression of
    the surface front through the period, creating a focus for
    thunderstorm development. However, strong capping will limit
    development along the front, likely until closer to 00z, when
    stronger large-scale ascent overspreads the surface boundary and
    cooling aloft ensues. Thunderstorms will likely remain elevated atop
    the strong EML in the 850-700 mb layer, and will likely become
    undercut by the surface cold front given boundary-parallel flow
    through the cloud-bearing layer. Nevertheless, steep midlevel lapse
    rates and sufficient MUCAPE will support organized convection
    capable of producing large hail. With time, cells may become
    training clusters, posing some isolated risk for damaging gusts.

    ...Southern Plains Vicinity...

    As a surface low develops across west TX, a triple point will emerge
    near the eastern TX Panhandle/South Plains vicinity. A stout EML
    will preclude convective development for much of the day. Near the
    triple point and northeast along the advancing cold front, isolated
    to scattered thunderstorms should form in the 22-00z time frame.
    Supercell wind profiles with large MUCAPE, very steep lapse rates,
    and elongated hodographs suggests initial supercells will pose a
    risk for large to very large hail through early evening. Thereafter, boundary-parallel flow will result in clustering/training as
    convection also becomes undercut by the front. Damaging gusts also
    may occur with initial supercells given a well-mixed boundary
    layer/steep low-level lapse rates beneath the EML. Additionally,
    some strong gust potential could occur into the Ozarks vicinity as
    clustering ensues, but hail is expected to be the main concern.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM PARTS OF THE
    SOUTHERN PLAINS NORTHEASTWARD TOWARD THE UPPER GREAT LAKES...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered severe thunderstorms are possible from parts of the
    southern Plains northeastward toward the upper Great Lakes from late
    Friday afternoon into early Saturday morning. Large hail and
    isolated severe gusts will be the main hazards.

    ...Synopsis...
    A broad belt of strong southwest winds aloft will stretch from Baja
    CA to the Great Lakes, with an upper trough extending from Manitoba
    into the Great Basin. Meanwhile, upper ridging will occur over the
    eastern states, with a high over the Gulf Of America.

    At the surface, a large area of high pressure will exist over the
    east, with southeast flow around the high bringing moisture off the
    Gulf and into southern Plains and Midwest. This moistening will
    occur ahead of a cold front, stretching roughly from southern WI
    into central MO and OK at 00Z. This front will gradually progress
    south and east, and will be the primary focus for scattered severe
    storms on Friday.

    ...Lower MO Valley into OK and TX...
    Strong surface heating will occur over TX and into western OK Friday
    afternoon, as mid 60s F dewpoints surge northward toward the
    approaching cold front. This front will be near I-40 at 00Z, with
    clusters of severe storms likely developing in the heated air from
    western OK into northwest TX. MLCAPE over 2500 J/kg is possible, and
    wind profiles south of the cold front will favor supercells. Initial development may produce a couple tornadoes prior to the cold front
    undercutting the storms as they progress east/northeastward across
    OK. Very large hail will be possible on both side of the front as
    hodographs will be elongated and primarily front-parallel.

    Farther northeast into KS and MO, additional lift via warm advection
    late in the day and into the evening will also support clusters of
    severe storms, possibly elevated but also with hail and localized
    wind potential.

    ...Upper Great Lakes southward into the mid MO Valley...
    Strong warm advection will result in elevated thunderstorms by
    midday over parts of WI and into northern/Upper MI, with sufficient
    instability to support an elevated marginal hail risk. Farther
    south, late afternoon development is likely along the front from
    southern WI to the IA/IL border area and into MO, aided by daytime
    heating. Though capped, lift along the boundary should instigate
    scattered cells near 00Z, with isolated supercells tracking across
    IL, IN, and perhaps southern MI and northwest OH. Winds just off the
    surface will be quite strong at over 50 kt, aiding wind gusts. A
    brief tornado cannot be ruled out across this region, and scattered
    hail is likely as well.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM WEST-CENTRAL
    TEXAS INTO SOUTHERN MISSOURI...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered strong to severe thunderstorms are possible from central
    Texas into the Ohio Valley on Saturday.

    ...Synopsis...

    A northern stream upper shortwave trough will shift east across
    Ontario/Quebec and the Great Lakes to the Northeast on Saturday.
    Meanwhile, a cold front will shift southeast across the Ohio Valley
    through afternoon. Further south, a southern stream upper trough
    over the Southwest will become negatively tilted as it spreads
    eastward over the southern Plains by Sunday morning. The southwest
    extent of the Ohio Valley cold front will stall over TX/OK and into
    the Ozarks for much of the day as warm advection maintains a moist
    warm sector ahead of the boundary prior to stronger height falls
    overspreading the region near/after 00z.

    ...OK/TX into the Ohio Valley - Saturday morning/afternoon...

    Fast southwesterly deep-layer flow parallel to the surface boundary
    will result in a substantial area of ongoing rain and thunderstorms
    Saturday morning from eastern OK into the Ozarks and northeast along
    the surface front through the Ohio Valley. While instability will
    remain limited, strong deep layer flow and cool temperatures aloft
    could support sporadic strong gusts and marginally severe hail
    diurnally.

    ...TX/OK into the Ozarks - Saturday late afternoon/evening...

    Convection is likely to redevelop late Saturday afternoon along the
    cold front in persistent low-level warm advection and as a low-level
    jet increases toward evening. Supercell wind profiles are evident in
    forecast soundings, with cool temperatures aloft supporting a
    corridor of moderate MLCAPE (1000-2000 J/kg) from west-central TX
    and north TX into southeast OK/western AR. Initial supercells could
    pose a risk for large hail and a tornado or two. Convection may
    become undercut by the southeast-advancing cold front with time into
    the evening hours, with some upscale growth into training clusters
    of line segments. While inhibition will increase into the nighttime
    hours, some risk for isolated damaging gusts could accompany any
    linear development as well.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER MUCH OF
    CENTRAL TEXAS NORTHEASTWARD INTO SOUTHERN MISSOURI...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered strong to severe thunderstorms are possible mainly from
    Texas into southern Missouri on Saturday. Isolated strong storms may
    occur during the day across the Ohio Valley.

    ...Synopsis...
    An upper trough will fill slightly as it moves from AZ/NM into the
    southern Plains. Ahead of this feature a broad belt of strong
    southwest flow aloft will extend from the southern Plains into the
    Northeast, where a deepening upper low will develop into Quebec.
    Meanwhile, an upper ridge will remain situated over the Southeast.

    At the surface, a boundary will stretch from the northeastern states southwestward across the OH Valley and into northwest TX. The New
    England portion of this boundary will push east as a cold front
    during the day, with scattered convection in a weak instability but
    strong mean wind environment.

    The OH Valley portion of the front will be stationary, but a narrow
    band of instability will exist along it. Glancing warm advection
    with west/southwest winds and heating may yield a few thunderstorms,
    but sounding show relatively weak instability or overall severe
    potential.

    ...TX into southern MO and into the OH Valley...
    Early day storms are likely to exist from eastern OK into MO and
    extending north of the OH River, in a zone of low-level theta-e
    advection. Marginal hail cannot be ruled out over southern parts of
    this regime where elevated instability will be stronger, but overall
    it appears widespread rain may reduce severe potential at that time.

    To the south, stronger instability will exist from OK into TX, with
    a destabilizing warm sector south of the quasi-stationary front.
    This front will extend roughly from eastern OK into southwest TX
    through the period, with substantial moisture flux northward into
    the lifting zone. As such, midday development is likely over much of west-central/northwest TX with expanding coverage across the
    remainder of northern TX, OK, and southern MO. Areas of elevated
    hail cannot be ruled out anywhere north of the front given strong
    deep-layer shear.

    Supercells with very large hail and perhaps a brief tornado prior to
    cold front surge are expected during the late afternoon over
    west-central TX south of the cold front, and perhaps as far north as
    the Red River as the low-level jet increases during the evening.
    Overnight, another round of storms will occur over western and
    central TX as the deeper cold front arrives coincident with the
    shortwave. Both damaging winds and embedded hail cores are expected
    with a linear storm mode.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM NORTHWEST
    ARKANSAS INTO CENTRAL MISSOURI AND FAR WEST-CENTRAL ILLINOIS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are expected on Sunday from east Texas into the
    lower Missouri and middle Mississippi Valleys. The greatest damaging
    wind and tornado potential will be over portions of northern
    Arkansas into Missouri and far west-central Illinois.

    ...Eastern OK/ArkLaTex into the Mid-MS Valley...

    A compact upper shortwave trough located over the southern High
    Plains Sunday morning will lift northeast through the period,
    becoming oriented over the Mid/Upper MS Valley/Upper Great Lakes
    vicinity by Monday morning. A belt of intense south/southwest
    deep-layer flow associated with this feature will overspread
    portions of the eastern OK into the Ozarks and Mid-MS Valley, with a
    500 mb jet streak around 70-90 kt over the Lower MO Valley around
    21-00z.

    At the surface, low pressure over OK at the beginning of the period
    will lift north/northeast over the Lower MO Valley by 00z, and into
    southern WI by 12z Monday. A cold front will sweep east across the
    region as this occurs, while a warm front lifts northward across
    MO/IL. Southerly low-level flow will transport modest boundary-layer
    moisture northward across the Ozarks/Mid-MS Valley, with mainly low
    60s F dewpoints forecast. Mid-60s F dewpoints are more likely from
    eastern OK/AR southward.

    Some uncertainty still remains regarding the degree of
    destabilization across the region. Cloud cover and areas of
    precipitation during the morning hours could limit stronger
    destabilization, as well as prevent steepening of low-level lapse
    rates. Nevertheless, deep-layer flow will be quite strong during the
    day and into the evening (decreasing with southward extent toward
    east TX/northern LA). Forecast soundings indicate supercell wind
    profiles, and initial supercells may be possible ahead of the eastward-advancing cold front. Convection may tend to grow upscale
    into one or more line segments given linear forcing along the cold
    front. Nevertheless, tornadoes will be possible with either storm
    mode given backed low-level winds contributing to enlarged, looping
    low-level hodographs, and a strong low-level jet supporting 0-1 km
    SRH greater than 250 m2/s2. Swaths of damaging gusts also will be
    possible, especially as convection becomes organized into an
    eastward progressing line.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER MUCH OF MISSOURI...NORTHERN ARKANSAS...AND FAR WESTERN ILLINOIS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are expected on Sunday from east Texas into the
    lower Missouri and middle Mississippi Valleys. The greatest damaging
    wind and tornado potential will be over portions of northern
    Arkansas into Missouri and far west-central Illinois.

    ...MO...AR...Portions of surrounding states...
    A compact shortwave trough will eject northeastward out of the TX
    Panhandle Sunday morning and into IA by evening. An intense leading
    speed max will accompany this wave with strong cooling aloft over
    OK, northwest AR, MO and IA. A surface low will deepen as it
    develops northward out of OK and into IA as well.

    The cold front will move across far eastern KS and OK and into AR
    and MO by mid afternoon, with a warm front moving north and
    extending from northern MO into central IL/IN/OH by 00Z. Moderate
    southerly winds in the low levels will aid moisture advection with
    low 60s F dewpoints behind the warm front.

    Early day rain and thunderstorms will likely be ongoing over MO and
    IL in association with the advancing warm front. Areas of heating
    will occur behind this activity, and ahead of the approaching cold
    front with up to 1000 J/kg MUCAPE developing.

    Storms will form by early afternoon over far eastern KS and OK, with
    an elongated and partially broken line of supercells from the IA/MO
    border into AR through 00Z. Wind profiles will favor supercells as
    the primary storm mode along the length of the cold front, with the
    most likely area for tornadoes from northern AR into central MO
    where instability may be strongest. Farther north, cooler midlevel
    temperatures and stronger low-level shear may still support
    supercells and tornado risk despite weaker instability.

    The severe threat will peak during the afternoon and early evening
    as the upper system pulls north of the area, however, at least
    isolated severe storms may persist into the night across IL and
    southward along the MS River.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorm potential appears low on Monday.

    ...Synopsis...

    An upper low/shortwave trough over the Upper Midwest on Monday
    morning will lift northeast across the Great Lakes into southern
    Ontario and western Quebec by Tuesday morning. Meanwhile, another
    upper shortwave trough over the northern Rockies will develop
    eastward to the northern Plains.

    ...Ohio Valley/Lower Great Lakes to the TN/Lower MS
    Valleys/Southeast TX...

    A belt of moderate southwesterly deep-layer flow associated with the
    Great Lakes upper trough will overspread much of the Ohio Valley
    into the Mid-Atlantic/Northeast. At the surface, low pressure will
    move in tandem with the upper trough from WI to western Quebec, with
    a trailing cold front developing east across the Ohio Valley to the north-central Appalachians/Mid-Atlantic vicinity. A narrow corridor
    of 250-500 J/kg MLCAPE may develop ahead of the front across the
    upper Ohio Valley vicinity. While instability and lapse rates and
    will remain poor, robust vertical shear may allow for a few stronger
    storms capable of producing locally strong wind gusts.

    The southern extent of the aforementioned cold front will stall over
    the TN/Lower MS Valley and into southeast TX. Better-quality
    boundary layer moisture will reside ahead of the boundary this far
    south, resulting in up to 1000 J/kg MLCAPE. However, vertical shear
    will be very modest. A couple of strong storms will be capable of
    locally strong gusts or small hail, but a lack of stronger vertical
    shear will likely limit longevity of any stronger/better organized
    updrafts, precluding severe probabilities.

    ...Northern Plains...

    Cold temperatures aloft with the upper shortwave trough will support
    steep midlevel lapse rates from MT into the northern Plains
    vicinity. This will support thunderstorm development during the
    afternoon into evening. While instability will remain weak, small
    hail may accompany stronger thunderstorm cores across MT into the
    western Dakotas. Additional thunderstorms may develop overnight
    eastern SD into southern MN/northern IA on the nose of a developing
    low-level jet. This activity also may produce small hail into early
    Tuesday morning.

    morning will lift northeast across the Great Lakes into southern
    Ontario and western Quebec by Tuesday morning. Meanwhile, another
    upper shortwave trough over the northern Rockies will develop

    pressure will move from Wisconsin to Quebec through the period with
    a trailing cold front moving from the Ohio Valley to the
    north-central Appalachians and into the Mid-Atlantic. This front
    will be more stationary across the Mid-Mississippi Valley and may
    start to move north by the end of the period across south-central
    Texas.

    ...Ohio Valley/Lower Great Lakes to the TN/Lower MS
    Valleys/Southeast TX...
    A narrow corridor of mid 60s dewpoints may be present across the
    Ohio Valley on Monday which could result in some weak instability
    despite extensive cloud cover and poor lapse rates. Robust vertical
    shear could result in a few stronger storms capable of isolated
    damaging wind gusts, but the limited instability should keep the
    threat minimal overall.

    Better-quality boundary layer moisture, slightly better lapse rates,
    and the potential for some warming may result in greater instability
    farther south, perhaps up to 1000 J/kg MLCAPE. However, vertical
    shear will be very weak where this better instability is forecast to
    develop. A couple of strong storms will be capable of locally strong
    gusts or small hail, but a lack of stronger vertical shear will
    likely limit longevity of any stronger/better organized updrafts,
    precluding severe probabilities.

    ...Northern Plains...
    Cold temperatures aloft with the upper shortwave trough will support
    steep midlevel lapse rates from MT into the northern Plains
    vicinity. As weak instability develops across the northern Plains,
    scattered thunderstorms are possible. A well-mixed air mass could
    support an isolated severe wind threat, particularly across
    southwest South Dakota and vicinity where mid-level flow will be
    strongest.

    Additional thunderstorms may develop overnight across eastern SD
    into southern MN/northern IA on the nose of a developing low-level
    jet. This activity may produce small hail into early Tuesday
    morning.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE
    SOUTHERN HIGH PLAINS INTO PARTS OF SOUTHERN KANSAS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe thunderstorms are possible on Tuesday across
    portions of the southern Plains.

    ...Synopsis...

    Low-amplitude west/southwest mid/upper flow will prevail across the south-central and southeast states on Tuesday. A belt of stronger
    westerlies aloft will reside across the northern tier of the U.S. as
    a series of upper troughs migrate eastward from the northern Plains
    to the Northeast. At the surface, low pressure over Quebec and an
    associated cold front will be located from the Hudson Valley into
    the NC/VA Piedmont. Further west, low-level moist advection on south/southeasterly low level flow will allow modified Gulf moisture
    to spread northward from the Lower MS Valley into the southern High
    Plains.

    ...Southern Plains to southern KS...

    Modest Gulf moisture will spread north and west through the day to
    near the NM/TX border and across much of OK into southern KS.
    Forecast guidance suggest a weak shortwave impulse will eject across
    the southern Rockies in modest west/southwesterly flow aloft. While
    height tendencies will remain neutral, precluding much in the way of
    surface cyclogenesis, a sharpening dryline is forecast to extend
    from southwest KS into the OK/TX Panhandles, then southward near the
    NM/TX border. Low-level moist advection beneath steep midlevel lapse
    rates will support moderate destabilization (MLCAPE 1500-2500 J/kg).
    While deep-layer flow will remain modest, vertically veering wind
    profiles will contribute to supercell wind profiles, with
    elongated/straight hodographs. Isolated supercells will pose a risk
    for large hail. Furthermore, strong heating will result in steep
    low-level lapse rates and a well mixed boundary layer, supporting
    isolated strong to severe outflow gusts. As a southerly low-level
    jet increases during the evening, some potential will exist for
    convection to develop into an eastward developing MCS. If this
    occurs, some severe potential could persist eastward away from the
    dryline into portions of western north Texas and western OK.

    ...IA/WI/IL...

    A stalled frontal boundary will extent across the Mid-MO Valley into
    southern WI. Modest moisture return and persistent isentropic ascent
    along this boundary may be sufficient for isolated thunderstorm
    development amid weak diurnal destabilization. Low to midlevel flow
    will remain rather weak, but rapidly increase above 700 mb,
    supporting effective shear magnitudes greater than 40 kt. Cold
    temperatures aloft (-17 C near 500 mb) will support MLCAPE to around
    500 J/kg, and isolated convection could produce sporadic hail.

    ...Carolinas...

    A cold front associated with a surface low over Quebec will develop
    southeast across the Mid-Atlantic and Carolinas during the
    afternoon/evening. Strong heating of a modestly moist boundary layer
    ahead of the front will support a corridor of MLCAPE up to 1000-1500
    J/kg. Weak low-level southwesterly flow will increase with height,
    support effective shear magnitudes up to 35 kt. This should be
    sufficient for a few stronger/organized cells. Steep low-level lapse
    rates and somewhat elongated hodographs suggest transient supercells
    capable of strong gusts and isolated hail will be possible.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE
    SOUTHERN HIGH PLAINS AND INTO PARTS OF SOUTHERN KANSAS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated to scattered severe thunderstorms are possible on Tuesday
    across portions of the southern Plains.

    ...Synopsis...
    A mostly zonal pattern will be in place across the CONUS with
    multiple embedded weak shortwave troughs on Tuesday. One such trough
    which is forecast to move across New Mexico during the afternoon may
    result in some weak lee troughing and support the potential for
    isolated to scattered severe storms along the dryline Tuesday
    afternoon.

    ...Southern High Plains...
    Low-level moisture will advect northward across West Texas ahead of
    a dryline Tuesday morning. Strong surface heating will lead to
    moderate to strong destabilization along and ahead of the dryline.
    Forecast soundings show a weakly capped airmass which should be
    sufficient for isolated to scattered thunderstorm development by mid
    to late afternoon as weak forcing from the mid-level trough
    overspreads the dryline. 30 to 35 knots of shear should support
    high-based, slow-moving supercells with a threat for large hail and
    severe wind gusts. An isolated tornado threat may also exist where
    better low-level moisture is present, farther south, and where
    intersecting boundaries could enhance low-level vorticity ingestion.

    Upscale growth may eventually occur with one or more MCSs moving
    east into the evening and overnight hours, supported by a modestly
    enhanced low-level jet.

    ...Northern Panhandle into Kansas...
    A surface front is forecast to extend across Kansas and into the
    OK/northern TX Panhandle by Tuesday afternoon. Only modest moisture
    recovery will occur this far north, but it may be sufficient for
    moderate instability along the front by mid-afternoon. 25 to 30
    knots of shear will support some storm organization. Very steep
    lapse rates and a relatively dry profile will support the potential
    for isolated large hail and severe wind gusts.

    ...IA/WI/IL...
    A stalled frontal boundary will be in place across the Mid-MO Valley
    into southern WI on Tuesday. Modest moisture return and persistent
    isentropic ascent along this boundary may be sufficient for isolated thunderstorm development amid weak diurnal destabilization. Low to
    midlevel flow will remain rather weak, but rapidly increase above
    700 mb, supporting effective shear magnitudes greater than 40 kt.
    Cold temperatures aloft (-17 C near 500 mb) will support MLCAPE to
    around 500 J/kg, and isolated convection could produce sporadic hail
    or damaging wind gusts.

    ...Carolinas...
    A cold front associated with a surface low over Quebec will move
    southeast across the Mid-Atlantic and Carolinas during the
    afternoon/evening. Strong heating of a modestly moist boundary layer
    ahead of the front will support a corridor of MLCAPE up to 1000-1500
    J/kg. Weak low-level southwesterly flow will increase with height,
    support effective shear magnitudes up to 35 kt. This should be
    sufficient for a few stronger/organized cells. Steep low-level lapse
    rates and somewhat elongated hodographs suggest transient supercells
    capable of strong gusts and isolated hail will be possible. In
    addition, any storms which interact with the sea breeze could have
    locally enhanced updrafts and a periodically greater large
    hail/damaging wind threat.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
    THE SOUTHERN HIGH PLAINS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe thunderstorms are possible across portions of the
    central and southern High Plains on Wednesday.

    ...Central/Southern Plains...

    A low-amplitude, modest southwesterly flow regime will persist
    across the Plains on Wednesday. At the surface, a stalled frontal
    boundary will extend from the Upper Midwest to the central High
    Plains, while a dryline extends south from southeast CO into
    southwest TX. Southerly low-level flow will maintain northward
    transport of modified Gulf moisture across TX/OK into the central
    Plains.

    Forecast guidance varies considerably regarding ongoing
    precipitation Wednesday morning. Some CAMs show widespread
    convection across KS, while other place morning convection further
    south along the Red River. This morning convection will potentially
    have implications for afternoon/evening severe potential as it may
    hinder diurnal destabilization, or produce outflow boundaries which
    could aid in redevelopment later in the day. Nevertheless, adequate
    boundary layer moisture beneath steep midlevel lapse rates and
    modest vertical shear (25-35 kt effective shear magnitudes) will
    support a broad area of at least Marginal (level 1 of 5) severe risk
    (strong winds and hail) from the central Plains along the stalled
    frontal boundary, south/southwest into the southern High Plains
    along the dry line.

    Some greater risk for a few supercells may develop along the dryline
    across west Texas. Stronger heating and higher surface dewpoints
    will foster greater destabilization. Elongated hodographs suggest
    isolated supercells capable of producing large hail will be
    possible. Furthermore, steep low-level lapse rates and deep boundary
    layer mixing may support sporadic strong/severe gusts. Given
    nebulous/weak large-scale ascent, storm coverage along the dryline
    is uncertain, and probabilities may need to be adjusted/extended
    northward if confidence increases in greater storm coverage.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PORTIONS OF
    THE EASTERN NEW MEXICO AND ADJACENT PORTIONS OF THE TEXAS SOUTH
    PLAINS AND TRANSPECOS REGION...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe thunderstorms are possible across portions of the
    central and southern High Plains on Wednesday.

    ...Central Plains to the southern High Plains...
    Moderate west-southwesterly flow aloft is forecast aloft across the
    Plains, with only weak/embedded disturbances within this flow field
    forecast to shift eastward across the Plains region. Still, with
    the westerlies aloft maintaining weak lee troughing and potentially
    a weak low over the southeastern Colorado vicinity, low-level
    southerlies across the central/southern Plains will maintain a
    seasonably moist boundary layer.

    While convection and associated cloud cover ongoing early in the day
    -- particularly across the central Plains -- may hinder
    destabilization locally, afternoon insolation should support 1000 to
    2000 J/kg mixed-layer CAPE across a fairly broad area. New storm
    development should occur across the Iowa/Nebraska Kansas area during
    the afternoon, though location/coverage will likely be modulated by aforementioned/earlier storms and associated outflows. Where ample destabilization occurs, a few clusters of convection capable of
    producing locally strong/gusty winds and marginal hail can be
    expected.

    Greater severe risk -- associated with isolated supercell potential
    -- remains evident over the southern High Plains area and into the
    Transpecos region of Texas. Here, a less perturbed airmass should heat/destabilize through the day, ahead of an evolving dryline.
    With modest but veering flow with height, shear should be sufficient
    to support mid-level rotation with stronger storms. Large hail and
    locally damaging gusts will be the main risks with these storms.
    Some congealing/upscale growth may occur by early evening, as storms
    spread east-northeastward across parts of western Texas, but overall
    severe risk should gradually diminish diurnally.

    ...Parts of the Southeast...
    A weak mid-level vort max is forecast to be moving eastward across
    the central Gulf Coast region Wednesday afternoon, where a heating/destabilizing airmass is expected. Fairly steep mid-level
    lapse rates should be present across the Georgia/South Carolina
    vicinity, which will contribute to development of 1500 to 2000 J/kg
    mixed-layer CAPE across this area. While flow aloft will remain
    relatively weak, and thus storms generally rather disorganized, the
    degree of CAPE should support a few more vigorous updrafts. Along
    with potential for marginal hail, a relatively deep mixed layer
    expected to evolve through peak heating could also promote some
    evaporative enhancement to downdrafts -- possibly yielding locally
    strong wind gusts from a few of the stronger storms. Convection --
    and any ongoing severe risk -- will diminish after sunset.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PORTIONS
    OF THE CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN PLAINS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe thunderstorms are possible on Thursday from eastern
    Colorado into Kansas, and southward across west Texas and Oklahoma.
    Large hail and strong wind gusts will be possible with this
    activity.

    ...Central/Southern Plains...

    Another day of low-amplitude, modest west/southwesterly mid/upper
    flow is forecast across the Plains on Thursday. Remnant convection
    from the Day 1/Wed period may be ongoing during the morning across
    parts of KS/OK/TX, but the location of this activity is uncertain. Nevertheless, south/southeasterly low-level flow will maintain warm
    advection across the region to the east of a dryline extending
    southward from eastern CO into southwest TX, and to the south of a
    frontal boundary near the NE/KS border. Additionally, an outflow
    boundary from morning convection is forecast by some guidance to
    reside near the OK/KS border, but this will depend on how Day 1/Wed
    convection evolves into the Day 2 period.

    Where stronger diurnal heating occurs, a corridor of 1500-2000 J/kg
    MLCAPE is forecast, most likely from west TX into OK, with more
    modest moisture/instability expected into the central High Plains.
    While deep-layer flow will be modest, effective shear around 25-35
    kt will allow for isolated organized cells along the dryline in west
    TX, which may produce large hail and locally strong gusts. Further
    north across parts of eastern CO, modest moisture and upslope flow
    may support a few cells capable of producing hail and gusty winds.

    With eastward extent into KS/OK and perhaps western north TX,
    potential morning convection is resulting in quite a bit of
    uncertainty regarding how severe potential will evolve during the afternoon/evening. Re-invigoration of morning activity, or
    redevelopment along remnant outflow could result in scattered
    thunderstorm clusters. Large hail and strong gusts would be possible
    with this activity into the evening. Damaging gusts could become
    more likely during the evening if upscale growth can occur as a
    25-35 kt southerly low-level jet develops. Given the high degree of uncertainty, will maintain Marginal (level 1 of 5) probabilities
    across an expanded area.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM EASTERN
    COLORADO EASTWARD ACROSS MUCH OF KANSAS...AND SOUTHWARD ACROSS
    OKLAHOMA AND NORTHERN/WESTERN TEXAS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe thunderstorms are possible on Thursday from eastern
    Colorado into Kansas, and southward across west Texas and Oklahoma.
    Large hail and locally strong wind gusts will be possible with this
    activity.

    ...Synopsis...
    A broad zone of modest west-southwesterly flow aloft will prevail
    across most of the country again on Thursday, though faster flow is
    progged over New England in conjunction with a short-wave trough
    moving eastward across southern Quebec and -- eventually -- northern
    New England. A second trough, off the West Coast, is expected to
    pivot eastward toward the central and southern California coast
    through the second half of the period.

    At the surface, frontal wave development is forecast along a
    baroclinic zone extending from southwestern Kansas into the Upper
    Midwest, as a mid-level short-wave trough moves through the
    background west-southwesterlies. By evening, a weak low is forecast
    over the Iowa vicinity, with some southward progression of the
    trailing front across Kansas. Meanwhile, a dryline is forecast to
    mix eastward during the afternoon across the Texas Panhandle and
    South Plains areas, while remaining more stationary but sharpening
    across the Davis Mountains area. The aforementioned front, and the
    dryline, should both focus diurnal increases in thunderstorm
    activity.

    ...Eastern Colorado and Kansas south across Oklahoma and
    northern/western Texas...
    Thunderstorms are forecast to be ongoing at the start of the period
    across portions of the MRGL risk area, including western Kansas and
    potentially portions of the Concho Valley area of Texas. The Texas
    convection is forecast to weaken with time, though the Kansas storms
    -- occurring in the vicinity of the surface baroclinic zone -- may
    persist through the day.

    By afternoon, as heating of the moist warm sector contributes to
    moderate destabilization, additional storm
    development/intensification is forecast across southern Kansas, and
    southward along the dryline mixing across western Texas. While
    deep-layer flow across the region is forecast to remain somewhat weak/sub-optimal in terms of more robust severe potential, veering
    winds with height should contribute to ample shear for mid-level
    rotation with developing storms. Large hail and locally damaging
    winds can be expected with the strongest cells.

    Though tornado risk will remain limited overall, slightly greater
    potential may evolve across the southwestern Kansas/northwestern
    Oklahoma area, and adjacent, eastern portions of the Texas/Oklahoma
    Panhandles. Here, near a weak low at the intersection of the
    surface front and the dryline, backed low-level flow and slightly
    stronger mid-level west-southwesterlies may support potential for a
    tornado during the afternoon/early evening.

    Storms across this area may congeal/grow upscale during the evening,
    spreading eastward across the Oklahoma/North Texas area as a
    low-level jet nocturnally increases. Attendant, local risk for
    hail/wind may persist through the evening.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS EXTREME
    EASTERN NEW MEXICO...NORTHWEST TEXAS AND PORTIONS OF
    SOUTHWEST/CENTRAL OKLAHOMA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe thunderstorms are possible across parts of Oklahoma,
    northwest Texas, and extreme eastern New Mexico Friday afternoon and
    evening.

    ...Southern Plains...

    An upper ridge will build over the Plains on Friday. Despite the
    building ridge, midlevel temperatures will remain somewhat cool (-10
    to -14 C at 500 mb) and weak shortwave impulse is expected to
    meander through the upper ridge during the afternoon/evening. At the
    surface, a cold front will sag southward across KS into
    northern/central OK and the TX Panhandle by 00-03z. A dryline also
    will extend southward across southwest TX. Some forecast guidance
    suggests remnant convection from the Day 1/Thu period could be
    ongoing across parts of eastern OK/KS Friday morning. This is
    uncertain, but if this occurs, an outflow boundary may also extend
    across portions of OK. Modest boundary layer moisture beneath steep
    midlevel lapse rates will support moderate instability, especially
    where stronger heating occurs. The aforementioned surface boundaries
    will serve as foci for potential thunderstorm development during the afternoon/evening. Elongated hodographs and effective shear near 30
    kt suggests any storms that develop could produce large hail. Where
    stronger heating occurs, steep low-level lapse rates also could
    support sporadic strong gusts.

    ...OH Valley...

    An upper shortwave trough will develop east across southeast Canada
    and the Great Lakes vicinity on Friday. Stronger westerly flow aloft
    will largely remain over the Great Lakes and Canada and lag behind a
    surface cold front. This surface cold front is forecast to move
    across the Ohio Valley during the afternoon and evening. Modest
    boundary layer moisture ahead of the front will support modest
    destabilization. However, vertical shear is expected to remain
    fairly weak. Scattered thunderstorms are expected, and a few
    stronger cells could produce locally gusty winds or perhaps small
    hail. Overall severe potential is expected to remain limited.

    MEXICO...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe thunderstorms are possible across parts of Oklahoma,
    northwest Texas, and extreme eastern New Mexico Friday afternoon and
    evening.

    ...Synopsis...
    An upper trough progressing east-southeastward across Ontario and
    the Upper Great Lakes region Friday will support surface
    cyclogenesis over the Lower Michigan area. As the low
    develops/shifts eastward with time, a surface cold front will
    advance southeastward across the Ohio and Mid Mississippi Valleys,
    and more slowly southward across the Oklahoma area.

    Meanwhile in the West, an upper low over the eastern Pacific will
    deepen and shift southeastward, reaching the central California
    Coast overnight. In response, downstream ridging will amplify
    across the central U.S. through the period.

    ...Southern Plains...
    Convection may be ongoing at the start of the period across parts of
    the Oklahoma/Kansas area, in the vicinity of the sagging cold front.
    Despite ridging aloft, rather weak warm-sector capping should
    support isolated to scattered storm redevelopment by afternoon,
    particularly near the front as it shifts southward across Oklahoma
    and the Texas Panhandle/South Plains through the day. Moderate
    afternoon destabilization, but modest shear, and large-scale
    ridging, suggests only isolated severe risk -- mainly in the form of
    hail and locally gusty/damaging winds. Low-level jet development
    expected during the evening over the High Plains may help sustain
    convection through the overnight hours.

    ...Elsewhere...
    Scattered thunderstorms -- and perhaps a couple of stronger storms
    capable of producing gusty winds and small hail -- are expected
    across parts of the Great Lakes/Midwest/Mid South region, near and
    ahead of the aforementioned/advancing cold front. Modest CAPE is
    expected across the area, and with rather weak shear as well, any
    severe risk would likely remain quite limited/local.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PORTIONS

    PANHANDLE...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated strong to severe thunderstorms are possible on Saturday
    across portions of eastern New Mexico into West Texas and the Texas
    Panhandle.

    ...Synopsis...
    An mid-level low will move across southern California and into the
    southern Great Basin on Saturday. As this trough advances east,
    mid-level ridging across the central CONUS will start to shift east
    through the day. A mid-level trough will amplify across Ontario and
    into the Northeast on Saturday and Saturday night. Surface high
    pressure will move into the Great Lakes in the wake of this trough.
    As low-pressure develops across the Rockies in response to the
    eastward advancing mid-level low, the pressure gradient will tighten
    across the Plains with strengthening southerly flow and northward
    moisture transport.

    ...Southern High Plains...
    As low-pressure develops in the west, a southerly low-level jet will
    strengthen Friday night and early Saturday morning which will likely
    lead to widespread storm coverage in the vicinity of a surface front
    from the Texas Panhandle/southern Oklahoma/northern Texas. This
    ongoing convection could have significant impacts on northward
    moisture recovery, and any remnant boundaries could also be a focus
    for severe weather later in the day Saturday, particularly across
    the Texas Panhandle and vicinity. Details remain uncertain at this
    time due to ongoing MCSs this morning and the potential for several
    additional convective systems Friday and Friday night. However,
    there is relatively higher confidence in some severe weather threat
    across far eastern New Mexico, parts of the Texas Panhandle, and
    adjacent areas. This zone is where the greatest overlap in buoyancy
    and shear is expected, with some potential for outflow boundaries to
    be an additional focus for storms on Saturday. A few supercells may
    be possible with a threat for isolated large hail or wind gusts, and
    perhaps a tornado.

    ...SUMMARY...
    A couple of strong to severe thunderstorms are possible on Saturday
    across portions of eastern New Mexico into adjacent western Texas.

    ...Synopsis...
    Large-scale ridging aloft will persist across the central U.S.
    Saturday, as short-wave troughing over the Great Lakes region moves
    into/across the Lower Lakes/Northeast, and a western U.S. upper low
    makes slow eastward progress across California and into Nevada.

    At the surface, a cold front will shift eastward across the
    Northeast and Mid-Atlantic region, while trailing westward across
    the Gulf Coast states and into the southern Plains.

    ...Parts of eastern New Mexico and adjacent western Texas...
    Widespread convection is forecast to be ongoing at the start of the
    period within a zone from far eastern New Mexico eastward to
    Oklahoma/North Texas. Resulting cloud cover and likely southward
    progression of outflow across western Texas casts some uncertainty
    with respect to recovery of the afternoon airmass across the MRGL
    risk area. Presuming ample heating occurs, isolated, new-storm
    development -- likely near remnant outflow -- may pose additional
    potential for local, all-hazards severe potential. This area will
    likely require some adjustment in later outlooks, as the effects of
    early-day convection can be more accurately ascertained.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS MUCH OF
    CENTRAL AND NORTHWEST NEBRASKA...SOUTHERN SOUTH DAKOTA...AND FAR
    NORTHERN KANSAS....

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe storms are possible across the southern High Plains
    and central Plains Sunday afternoon/evening. Scattered severe storms
    are possible across the northern Plains and Upper Midwest Sunday
    evening/night.

    ...Discussion...
    A moderately strong mid-level jet streak will extend from the
    Southwest and into the Central Plains on Sunday as a mid-level
    trough advances eastward through the Intermountain West. As this
    occurs, a strong surface cyclone will develop in the central High Plains/northern Plains. This strengthening cyclone will draw richer
    low-level moisture into the northern Plains while a dryline sharpens
    across the High Plains.

    This dryline will extend from southwest Nebraska southward to the
    Texas Big Bend on Sunday afternoon. Mid to upper 60s dewpoints east
    of this dryline and strong heating will support moderate to strong
    instability by Sunday afternoon. Forecast soundings show significant
    inhibition along the dryline in the southern High Plains with lesser
    inhibition with increasing latitude. Weak height falls and a sharp
    dryline circulation could support isolated supercell development
    along the dryline from southwest Kansas southward. A favorable
    environment will support a conditional threat for all severe weather
    hazards wherever supercells can develop within this region, but
    coverage concerns preclude a greater categorical risk at this time.

    Farther north, near the surface low, storm coverage probabilities
    increase due to stronger forcing and weaker inhibition. At least a
    few supercells are likely from northern Kansas across Nebraska and
    perhaps into far southern South Dakota Sunday evening with a threat
    for large hail and severe wind gusts. Hodographs will be relatively
    small during the evening, but once the low-level jet intensifies
    after 00Z, hodographs will enlarge quite rapidly with increasing
    low-level shear in the 00Z to 02Z timeframe. However, storm
    longevity and intensity after sunset remains questionable as
    forecast soundings show strong inhibition across much of the open
    warm sector. Therefore, any supercells which develop, may mostly
    exist prior to the strengthening low-level shear. Therefore, only 2
    percent tornado probabilities are warranted at this time despite a
    considerably higher conditional threat. Scattered thunderstorms
    capable of large hail are expected to develop late Sunday evening
    and into the overnight hours along and north of the warm front as
    isentropic ascent strengthens with the associated strengthening
    low-level jet.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN PARTS OF THE NORTHERN/CENTRAL GREAT PLAINS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated to scattered severe thunderstorms are possible on Sunday
    evening into early morning Monday across parts of the northern and
    central Great Plains. Large hail should be the predominant hazard.

    ...Synopsis...
    A strong upper-level jetlet will eject through the basal portion of
    a broad trough over the West. This should overspread the southern
    Rockies into the central High Plains by Sunday night. Primary
    surface cyclone will diurnally deepen over the central High Plains,
    with a secondary low downstream of the Bighorn Mountains. The
    primary low will advance northeast into the central SD vicinity by
    12Z Monday. A north/south-oriented lee trough/dryline will extend
    through the southern High Plains.

    ...Northern Great Plains to NE...
    Large-scale ascent will be focused across this region, especially
    Sunday evening/night as mid-level height falls/upper-level
    diffluence increase ahead of the approaching trough/jet streak. Two
    corridors of initial storm development are apparent by early
    evening, centered on the NE Panhandle and southeast MT, just ahead
    of the aforementioned surface lows. Rich low-level moisture will
    likely remain displaced to the southeast of both regions, but
    adequate moisture should be present for a few supercells with
    low-level southeasterlies beneath strengthening southwesterly
    mid/upper winds. The breadth of the uncapped warm-moist sector will
    be confined though and convection will likely become predominately
    elevated Sunday night. However, increasing convective coverage is
    anticipated within the exit region of a strong low-level jet nosing
    into the Mid-MO Valley. Large hail should be the overarching threat,
    with a mixed wind/hail threat possibly evolving amid signals of a
    linear cluster into western/central SD.

    ...KS to west TX...
    A very conditional severe threat will extend along the dryline. A
    plume of large buoyancy coincident with a supercell wind profile
    will exist from northwest TX into western KS. Forcing for ascent,
    outside of a weakly retreating dryline circulation, is nebulous.
    Thunderstorm probabilities appear to be around 10 percent or less,
    outside of the TX Big Bend during the late afternoon and evening.

    and move rapidly north through the day, spreading mid 60s dewpoints
    across much of the Upper Midwest.

    ...MN/IA/WI...
    Thunderstorms will likely be ongoing at the beginning of the period
    north of a warm front across Minnesota and Wisconsin amid moderate
    isentropic ascent. Isolated large hail will be possible from these
    storms. A surface low will be located somewhere near eastern South
    Dakota and will start to advance east during the morning. This
    surface low is expected to deepen somewhat through the day (perhaps
    to the low 990s mb range) as it moves toward the Twin Cities. There
    is a consistent signal for thunderstorms to develop along the cold
    front as it intersects the surface low/dryline in west-central
    Minnesota Monday afternoon. After some initial hail threat, these
    storms will likely become quickly linear along the front with an
    increasing severe wind threat. Strong low-level shear will also
    favor some line-embedded tornadoes, particularly if there area any
    areas within the line which become more favorably oriented to the
    low-level shear vector.

    Additional thunderstorms are forecast to develop along the dryline
    from southern Minnesota to west-central Iowa during the afternoon on
    Monday. 00Z CAM guidance is not overly bullish with convective
    development south of the MN/IA border, likely due to relatively weak convergence along the dryline in western Iowa from most high
    resolution guidance. However, the lack of convection from much of
    the guidance does not seem realistic considering the overall
    pattern. ECMWF/GFS/NAM are fairly consistent with a deepening
    surface low across Minnesota and moderate to strong height falls
    across the dryline. The southern extent of the previous Day 3
    moderate risk corresponds well to the southern extent of the more
    favorable height falls, and convective precipitation signal from the
    ECMWF/GFS. Therefore, no adjustments to the southern extent of the
    moderate risk were deemed necessary. However the moderate risk was
    expanded slightly westward to account for the expectation for
    earlier convective initiation (19-21Z) than shown by most guidance.
    Given very strong effective shear and over 3000 J/kg MLCAPE, expect
    any supercells which develop to become quickly severe with a threat
    for all severe weather hazards.

    As the surface low across Minnesota deepens the low-level jet is
    also forecast to strengthen across Iowa, Minnesota and Wisconsin.
    This will elongate low-level hodographs and support an increasing
    tornado threat during the evening. STP values of 3 to 5 are common
    across much of the warm sector ahead of anticipated storms with some
    guidance indicating values of 7 to 10. Therefore, any mature,
    discrete supercells which can form and maintain within the open warm
    sector on Monday late afternoon/evening will pose a threat for
    strong to potentially intense tornadoes.

    ...Eastern Kansas and northern Missouri to West Texas...
    Overall forcing will be weaker farther south along the dryline, but
    subtle height falls across a mostly uncapped warm sector could
    result in isolated to scattered supercell development Monday
    afternoon. A secondary area of higher severe weather probabilities
    may exist from portions of West Texas into southwest Oklahoma where
    the nocturnally strengthening low-level jet could support scattered
    supercell development Monday evening. However, weak height rises
    cast some doubt on storm coverage during the evening, precluding
    higher probabilities at this time.

    ...THERE IS A MODERATE RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN SOUTHERN
    MN/NORTHERN IA/WESTERN WI...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Multiple corridors of severe thunderstorms are expected across the
    Upper Midwest on Monday into Monday night, with a regional severe
    weather outbreak possible. The most dangerous period is likely
    during the late afternoon and evening when strong tornado potential
    should be maximized. Scattered large to very large hail and damaging
    winds are likely as well.

    ...Synopsis...
    A positive-tilt, upper-level trough will consist of multiple
    embedded shortwave impulses, moving east-northeast from the central
    High Plains to the Upper Midwest. A belt of 70+ kt 500-mb
    southwesterlies will be present from the central Great Plains to the
    Upper MS Valley on Monday afternoon. Primary surface cyclone should
    deepen slightly during the day as it advances from eastern SD to the
    Upper Great Lakes. A dryline will extend from the Mid-MO Valley
    south-southwest into west TX. A cold front will overtake the dryline
    as it surges southeast Monday night.

    ...Upper Midwest...
    After coordination with affected WFOs, primary adjustments have
    occurred along the southern extent of the severe probabilities to
    account for a more conditional, but still potentially significant
    severe threat.

    An arc of elevated thunderstorms will be ongoing at 12Z Monday from
    ND across the Upper MS Valley. Isolated large hail will be possible
    with these morning storms as they move east-northeast. Additional
    elevated storms will redevelop towards midday/early afternoon to the
    northeast of the aforementioned surface low. This will slow the
    advancement of the surface warm front into central MN, but
    strengthen differential surface heating across the baroclinic zone,
    with greater warming nosing north from NE into southeast SD.
    Surface-based storm development should occur by mid-afternoon across
    a portion of the Mid-MO Valley into southwest/west-central MN along
    the dryline to surface low. Large hail should be the primary initial
    threat, but cells may congeal into linear clusters, especially
    near/across the warm front. A mix of hail/wind/embedded tornadoes is
    likely, with the latter increasing with southern/eastern extent
    during late afternoon owing to stronger low-level shear across
    southeast MN/northeast IA into western WI.

    Open warm-sector storm development ahead of the dryline is nebulous
    with low confidence on the degree of ascent ahead of the dryline
    given the synoptic setup. Conditionally, both the buoyancy/shear
    parameter space is volatile and supportive of potential for multiple long-track, tornadic supercells. Timing of mid-level height falls
    tends to favor the evening period after peak heating but CAM
    signals, outside of the 12Z FV3, are sparse. Greater large-scale
    ascent appears focused from far northeast IA into WI. This region
    remains the most favorable for discrete warm-sector development
    during the evening. Otherwise, upstream linear clusters from
    southern/eastern MN will likely spread across northern/central WI
    into parts of Upper MI with a mixed mode of all hazards persisting,
    before eventually weakening overnight.

    ...Eastern KS/northern MO to west TX...
    Overall forcing will be weaker farther south along the dryline, but
    subtle mid-level height falls across a mostly uncapped warm sector
    should result in isolated to scattered supercell development during
    the late afternoon to evening. This appears most likely across
    western north TX into southwest OK where greater boundary-layer
    heating and a nocturnally strengthening low-level jet are
    anticipated.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS PORTIONS OF
    EASTERN OHIO INTO THE LOWER GREAT LAKES REGION...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered severe thunderstorms are likely across parts of the Lower
    Great Lakes on Tuesday afternoon/evening. Scattered severe
    thunderstorms are possible southwestward into the southern Great
    Plains. Isolated significant-severe potential, mainly from hail, is
    apparent across west Texas and separately in parts of the eastern
    Midwest to Lower Great Lakes.

    ...Synopsis...
    A consolidated shortwave trough will move eastward across the Great
    Lakes and southeast Canada on Tuesday. A southern-stream trough over
    the Southwest to northwest Mexico should drift east. Primary surface
    cyclone over northeast ON should quickly progress towards the
    Canadian Maritimes. An attendant cold front will push across the
    central to Lower Great Lakes Tuesday afternoon and evening. A weaker
    surface low should remain anchored over the TX Trans-Pecos.

    ...Eastern Ohio Valley/Lower Great Lakes...
    Ahead of the cold front, the warm sector across the Ohio Valley into
    the Lower Great Lakes region should destabilize through the
    morning/early afternoon. Initially, storms will develop across
    eastern Ohio into the Lower Great Lakes near the aforementioned
    surface low/cold front interface. Large hail will be the initial
    threat with supercell modes before a tendency to cluster and grow
    upscale. This will bring an increase in the potential for scattered
    to widespread damaging wind as the front shifts eastward with bowing
    line segments/clusters through time.

    ...TX/OK...
    A secondary weaker surface low will develop across western Texas
    near the vicinity of the dryline and a stationary front across
    portions of central Oklahoma into southern Kansas Tuesday afternoon.
    This region will be the focus of supercell development by the
    afternoon, with potential for large to very large hail, severe wind,
    and a tornado. An Enhanced Risk for hail may be needed in further
    outlook updates, given the steep lapse rates and supercellular
    modes, but uncertainty on coverage warrants re-evaluation as
    mesoscale details become more clear.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN OH TO
    WESTERN NY AND PARTS OF WEST TX TO SOUTHWEST OK...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered severe thunderstorms are possible within a broad swath
    from the Lower Great Lakes to the southern High Plains, mainly
    during the afternoon to evening on Tuesday. More probable corridors
    of greater threat are apparent over the Upper Ohio Valley/Lower
    Great Lakes and in parts of west Texas into southwest Oklahoma.

    ...Synopsis...
    A consolidated shortwave trough will accelerate eastward across the
    Great Lakes and southeast Canada, while a southern-stream trough
    over the Southwest to northwest Mexico slowly moves east. Primary
    surface low near the northern ON/QC border will quickly progress
    towards the Canadian Maritimes. An attendant cold front will push
    across the Lower Great Lakes Tuesday afternoon and evening. A weaker
    surface low should remain anchored over the TX Trans-Pecos.

    ...OH Valley and Lower Great Lakes...
    Forecast scenario is marred by uncertainty regarding evolution of
    remnant convection on Tuesday morning in the Midwest to Lower OH
    Valley, and signals for weaker mid-level lapse rates/instability
    relative to yesterday. Consensus of guidance suggests this morning
    convection should persist east and strengthen early in the diurnal
    heating cycle into the Upper OH Valley along related large-scale
    outflow. This could temper the northern extent of overall
    severe-storm coverage/intensity, as destabilization ahead of the
    cold front becomes limited. A distinct outlier in guidance, the 12Z
    ARW-NSSL, still indicates a favorable scenario for a more widespread
    wind and embedded hail threat, centered on the level 3-ENH risk
    area. The northern extent of the severe threat appears more
    conditional, but a few supercells remain possible with strong
    deep-layer shear and greater large-scale ascent in the lee of the
    Lower Great Lakes.

    ...West TX to the Ozarks...
    Multiple rounds of thunderstorms are expected through the period
    along a quasi-stationary front that should shift slowly south via
    convective outflows. With persistent moderate to strong mid-level southwesterlies downstream of the AZ/NM trough, supercells and
    organized clusters are anticipated along the baroclinic zone. Peak
    severe threat should remain diurnally driven as differential heating
    across the composite front/outflows increases. The most probable
    corridor for supercells producing very large hail and a couple
    tornadoes appears to be from parts of the Permian Basin into
    southwest OK during the late afternoon. This activity should
    consolidate into broad clusters/MCSs by early evening with
    small-scale bowing structures possible. This should support isolated
    to scattered severe gusts as well before convection subsides.
    Another round of isolated severe is expected in the Permian Basin/TX
    South Plains vicinity Tuesday night, as the low-level jet
    strengthens south of the convectively modulated front.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS NORTH-CENTRAL TEXAS...SOUTHEASTERN OKLAHOMA...WESTERN/CENTRAL ARKANSAS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered severe thunderstorms are possible on Wednesday, centered
    on central Texas to eastern Oklahoma and western Arkansas. Large
    hail, damaging wind, and a few tornadoes will be possible with
    thunderstorm activity.

    ...Synopsis...
    A shortwave trough is expected to move eastward across the Southern
    Plains on Wednesday, with multiple rounds of thunderstorm activity
    possible across portions of Texas and Oklahoma. At the start of the
    period Wednesday morning, convection should be ongoing across
    western Oklahoma into northern Texas near the surface low. This
    activity will continue to track eastward through the period and
    intensify through the afternoon/evening, as the surface low moves
    north and eastward. Additional thunderstorm development is expected
    along the southern fringe near the dryline in north-central Texas.

    A warm front extending across portions of Missouri, southern
    Indiana, southern Illinois into northern Kentucky may be the focus
    of strong to severe thunderstorm development Wednesday afternoon.

    ...Southern Plains into the Lower Mississippi Valley...
    The aforementioned thunderstorm activity early in the period
    Wednesday morning is expected to intensify through the afternoon, as
    daytime heating and increasing moisture leads to destabilization
    downstream in the warm sector. By the afternoon, the dryline across
    central Texas will be the focus of new development as upper level
    forcing overspreads the region. With multiple rounds of convection
    expected across the Texas Panhandle into western Oklahoma and north
    Texas in the D1 period, there is some uncertainty on where all the
    mesoscale features will be as this occurs. Nonetheless, it appears
    that ahead of the dryline the environment will be characterized by
    steep lapse rates, modest MLCAPE, and strong deep layer shear. This
    will support potential for a few supercells initially capable of
    very large hail. Should the mode remain favorable, the tornado risk
    will increase through the afternoon as the low-level jet strengthens
    and low-level curvature of hodographs increases. A more favorable
    corridor for tornadoes may exist near the Red River across
    southeastern Oklahoma/northern Texas. Upscale growth will promote
    potential for damaging wind, especially across eastern Oklahoma into
    western Arkansas. However, shear will also support potential for
    line embedded circulations.

    Additional thunderstorms may re-develop further west across the
    Texas Panhandle Wednesday afternoon, with potential for large hail.
    At this time, it is uncertain how much recovery can happen from
    multiple rounds of convection late D1 into D2 across this region.

    ...Lower MO/OH Valleys...
    Along the warm front from southern Indiana into southern Illinois
    and northern Kentucky, thunderstorm development is possible
    Wednesday afternoon. Forcing remains weaker across this region, with
    the shortwave back in the southern Plains. However, profiles would
    be supportive of a supercell or two in this region, given the plume
    of steep low to mid-level lapse rates, buoyancy, and sufficient
    shear. These would be capable of hail, severe wind, and potentially
    a tornado. For now, some uncertainty on coverage keeps probabilities
    low.

    Strong/locally severe thunderstorm development is expected from
    central Texas into the Mississippi and Ohio Valleys northward to the
    Great Lakes Thursday. Thunderstorms will pose a risk for strong to
    severe winds and hail.

    ...Synopsis...
    A broad region of southwesterly flow aloft will extend across the
    lower Mississippi River Valley into the Great Lakes region Thursday,
    with a mid-level vort max forecast to be moving eastward across the
    Ozarks toward the Ohio Valley. Weak low pressure initially progged
    to reside over the Missouri vicinity will gradually deepen as it
    shifts east-northeastward into the Midwest through the day before
    moving across Lower Michigan and into Ontario overnight. A trailing
    cold front is forecast to shift gradually southeastward across the
    Midwest/Mid Mississippi Valley/southern Plains through the period.

    ...Lower Great Lakes southwestward to Texas...
    Thunderstorm activity will likely be ongoing near the front at the
    edge of the Marginal Risk at the beginning of D2/Thursday. Widely
    scattered thunderstorm activity is expected by the late
    morning/afternoon along and ahead of the front. Flow at 850 mb will
    be strongest from the mid Mississippi Valley into the Ohio Valley.
    Sufficient instability will extend far enough northward to the Great
    Lakes region to support a risk for damaging wind. Across the lower
    Mississippi Valley, flow will be weaker but thunderstorms are
    expected to re-develop by the afternoon. Given steep lapse rates,
    sufficient shear, and moderate CAPE, the potential for damaging
    winds will be possible.

    Across central Texas, forcing for ascent will be weaker but a few
    supercells may develop near the dryline. Guidance indicates the
    dryline may surge eastward by the late afternoon. Though the flow is
    weak, around 25-30 kts of deep layer flow across the dryline should
    be sufficient to organize storms. The air mass ahead of the dryline
    will be characterized by MLCAPE around 2000-3000 J/kg and a plume of
    steep low to mid-level lapse rates, and minimal MLCIN. Supercells in
    this regime would be capable of large to very large hail.

    ...Texas Panhandle into western Oklahoma...
    Elevated thunderstorms may develop across portions of the
    Oklahoma/Texas Panhandle late in the D2/Thursday period. These would
    likely be initially elevated but would pose some risk for hail and
    damaging wind. Consensus is that this would likely consolidate into
    an MCS and move across western Oklahoma through the end of the
    period, with the damaging wind risk continuing through the end of
    the D2 period.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE LOWER
    GREAT LAKES REGION SOUTHWESTWARD TO CENTRAL TEXAS...AND ACROSS PARTS
    OF NORTH TEXAS AND SOUTHERN OKLAHOMA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Strong/locally severe thunderstorm development is expected from
    parts of the southern Plains into the Mississippi and Ohio Valleys,
    and northeastward to the Lower Great Lakes Thursday. Thunderstorms
    will pose a risk for strong to severe winds and hail.

    ...Lower Great Lakes region southwestward to Texas...
    A lead mid-level short-wave trough is forecast to sweep across the
    Midwest/Ohio Valley area Thursday, ahead of a second/stronger trough
    digging southeastward across the north-central states. This lead
    trough will support surface cyclogenesis, as a low shifts from the
    Illinois vicinity across northern Indiana and into Lower Michigan by
    evening. As this occurs, a trailing cold front is forecast to
    advance eastward across the Ohio Valley area, while trailing
    westward across central Texas to the Rio Grande Valley.

    Ahead of this front, a seasonably moist low-level airmass will heat/destabilize, supporting scattered storm development within an
    elongated zone near and ahead of the boundary.

    Greater instability will evolve across Texas and the Arklatex
    region, but weaker forcing and a weakly capped boundary layer should
    limit storm coverage. A few storms may also develop over the higher
    terrain of Mexico, and move across the lower Rio Grande Valley. Any
    storm developing across this region will prove capable of producing
    large hail, and locally strong gusts.

    Farther northeastward, from the Mid Mississippi Valley area to the
    Lower Great Lakes, lesser instability but stronger flow aloft
    suggests potential for locally damaging winds with stronger storms,
    and possibly marginal hail in a few locales. The risk across this
    area should diminish through the evening.

    ...Southern Oklahoma into North Texas...
    Evening/overnight storm development appears likely across the
    western North Texas/southwestern Oklahoma vicinity Thursday night,
    in a zone of warm advection near/north of the remnant surface front.
    Steep lapse rates and moderate westerlies aloft will combine to
    support potential for a few supercells, most likely elevated atop a shallow/stable boundary layer. Very large hail would be the primary
    risk, but particularly if storms can congeal into a quasi-linear
    MCS, locally damaging wind gusts could also be possible.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE TRANS
    PECOS TO EAST-CENTRAL TEXAS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered strong to severe thunderstorms are expected from the
    Northeast, across the Ohio, Tennessee, and Lower Mississippi Valleys
    and into Texas on Friday. The greatest threat for large hail will be
    from the Trans Pecos to East Texas.

    ...Synopsis...
    A surface low will move from Ontario into northern Quebec on Friday
    with a trailing front stalling from the Great Lakes to the Ozarks to
    West Texas. This front will start to accelerate southeast during the
    late afternoon/evening as a positively tilted mid-level trough
    amplifies and moves south across the Plains. Scattered strong to
    severe storms are forecast along this frontal zone Friday
    afternoon/evening.

    ...Trans Pecos to East Texas...
    Moderate instability is forecast south of a frontal zone across
    central Texas Friday afternoon. As the mid-level trough advances
    southward through the Plains, mid-level temperatures will cool and
    ascent will overspread this frontal zone. Therefore, as the airmass
    becomes uncapped, scattered thunderstorms should develop along the
    front. 35 to 40 knots of effective shear should be sufficient for
    supercells with a primary hazard of large hail.

    ...Mid Mississippi Valley to the eastern Great Lakes...
    Scattered thunderstorms are expected along and ahead of the front
    from Louisiana to western New York on Friday afternoon. The best
    flow will be across Kentucky and Ohio and into Pennsylvania and New
    York, but heating/destabilization becomes more questionable that far
    north. The best overlap of mid-level flow and richer low-level
    moisture will be across the Mid-Mississippi Valley. However, cloud
    cover associated with an MCS which is expected to be ongoing at the
    beginning of the period across Texas and Arkansas will limit heating
    and thus destabilization. Better instability will be likely where
    heating can occur to the south of the more extensive cloud cover,
    but shear/forcing becomes weaker farther south and east. Therefore,
    within the broad marginal risk from western New York to Louisiana
    there will likely be one or more corridors with a greater threat for
    severe storms, but those areas will be mesoscale in nature and
    highly dependent on Day 1 convection. Therefore, no higher
    probabilities have been added at this time.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FRIDAY AFTERNOON
    INTO EARLY FRIDAY NIGHT FROM CENTRAL TEXAS TO MIDDLE TENNESSEE AND
    CENTRAL KENTUCKY...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered strong to severe thunderstorms are expected from central
    Texas to middle Tennessee and central Kentucky Friday afternoon into
    early Friday night. Large hail and damaging winds are the main
    threats.

    ...Synopsis...
    Downstream from a ridge over the Great Basin, a shortwave trough now
    amplifying over the northern High Plains will continue southeastward
    across KS/OK/MO/AR on Friday. A separate/lead shortwave trough will
    eject quickly northeastward from the Great Lakes to the Saint
    Lawrence Valley. The lead shortwave trough will be associated with
    a weak surface cyclone across southeast QC and a trailing cold front
    into the lower Great Lakes. Farther southwest, the surface pattern
    will likely be modulated by the effects of overnight convection from
    D1 that will likely be ongoing at the start of the period from north
    TX and southern/eastern OK into western AR.

    ...Central TX to middle TN...
    Differential heating and outflow from the early convection will
    reinforce a baroclinic zone during the day from north/central TX
    into central AR. Surface heating/destabilization in advance of the
    remnant morning convection should result in re-invigoration of the
    convection by early afternoon across parts of the Mid-South and TN
    Valley, where the storm environment will favor clusters/line
    segments capable of producing occasional wind damage and large hail.


    Strong surface heating will occur south of the morning convection in
    TX where afternoon MLCAPE will likely exceed 2000 J/kg. The eastern
    extension of an EML, effective bulk shear of 30-40 kt and stronger
    flow aloft will favor a mix of supercells and multicell clusters
    capable of producing large hail (2 to 3 inches in diameter with the
    more persistent supercells). There will also be some increase in
    the threat for wind damage as storms consolidate into one or more
    larger clusters and continue moving southeastward toward the TX
    coast and south central TX into Friday night.

    ...Southern Appalachians to eastern NY...
    The ejecting/lead shortwave trough will provide a glancing influence
    across NY during the afternoon, where a weakly unstable warm sector
    is expected. Though buoyancy will not be particularly large (MLCAPE
    generally less than 1000 J/kg), some enhancement to midlevel flow
    (up to 40 kt) and steepened low-level lapse rates in the afternoon
    could support isolated wind damage with cell/small clusters.
    Farther south, flow aloft will be weaker, though stronger surface heating/larger buoyancy will compensate. Storm coverage is expected
    to remain widely scattered (more probable closer to the higher
    terrain/Blue Ridge), but thermodynamic profiles will favor
    sufficiently strong downdrafts for isolated wind damage.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS MAINLY SATURDAY AFTERNOON/EVENING FROM THE SOUTHEAST INTO THE MID-ATLANTIC AND
    SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated strong to severe storms are possible on Saturday from the
    Southeast to southern New England and across deep South Texas.

    ...Synopsis...
    A mid-level low will become closed across the Midwest on Saturday
    with an associated surface low traversing along the Ohio River. A
    cold front will extend southwest from this surface low to South
    Texas Saturday morning with the cold front crossing the Appalachians
    by Saturday evening.

    ...Mid-Atlantic to the Southeast...
    A broad warm sector featuring low to mid 60s dewpoints will be in
    place ahead of the aforementioned cold front on Saturday morning.
    Convection will likely be ongoing along this front at the beginning
    of the period. This convection and associated cloud cover will
    likely inhibit destabilization ahead of the front with only weak
    instability forecast. Flow will be sufficient for some clusters or
    organized bowing segments, but the limited instability will probably
    limit a greater threat.

    Less cloudcover and greater destabilization is likely east of the
    Appalachians which could lead to a locally greater severe weather
    threat. Forecast soundings show around 35 to 45 knots of deep layer
    shear which could result in some organized storms. However, this
    threat should be short-lived as inhibition increases substantially
    after sunset.

    ...Deep South Texas...
    The majority of guidance shows the cold front/composite outflow in
    the Gulf/northern Mexico by 12Z Saturday, but some guidance (Hires
    NAM and somewhat the NSSL-WRF) shows a less progressive/slower
    southward movement of the boundary. Therefore, while a marginal
    severe weather risk appears less likely across Deep South Texas on
    Day 2/Saturday, the threat will be maintained for now since some
    guidance indicates the threat could exist and only slight timing
    differences from other guidance could result in some threat early on
    Day 2.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM PORTIONS OF
    THE CAROLINAS INTO SOUTHEAST PENNSYLVANIA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated strong to severe storms are possible on Saturday from the
    Southeast to southern New England and across deep South Texas.

    ...Synopsis...

    A positive-tilt mid/upper trough from the Great Lakes to East Texas
    will shift east over the MS Valley as an upper cyclone develops over
    IL/MO by early afternoon. The upper cyclone should progress eastward
    over the Lower OH/TN Valley vicinity by the end of the period. Ahead
    of this system, a broad swath of modest southwesterly flow aloft
    will overspread much of the Eastern Seaboard. At the surface, weak
    cyclogenesis is forecast over the Ohio Valley. Meanwhile, a cold
    front will move across the Northeast, the central Appalachians, and
    much of the Southeast through Sunday morning.

    Further west, an upper trough will develop inland across the West. A
    belt of enhanced southerly mid/upper flow is expected to overspread
    portions of the Great Basin and the northern Rockies as this occurs.
    At the surface, a cold front will move eastward across the northern
    Great Basin.

    ...Southeast to Northeast U.S....

    Southerly low-level flow will transport modest boundary layer
    moisture northward ahead of the aforementioned cold front and
    surface low. Dewpoints will generally range from the upper 60s to
    low 60s F, though a corridor of mid-60s F dewpoints may occur from
    the Southeast into the central Appalachians. Convection will likely
    be ongoing across portions of MS/AL into the Lower OH Valley
    Saturday morning. Some of this activity across the Southeast could
    pose a risk for strong gusts. Additional convection is expected to
    develop during the afternoon ahead of the advancing cold front
    within a modestly destabilizing airmass (MLCAPE to around 1000
    J/kg). Overall, vertical shear profiles are forecast to remain
    modest, with less than 25-30 kt effective shear magnitudes. However,
    closer to the surface low and within a zone of potentially stronger differential heating from the central Appalachians to southeast PA,
    25-35 kt effective shear may support better organized/stronger
    updrafts. Isolated severe gusts and hail to 1.5 inches could occur
    with these cells within an area of steepened low-level lapse rates
    and moderate shear. An upgrade to Slight (level 2 of 5) has been
    included with this outlook update.

    The severe risk across the broader region will be tempered by modest shear/instability, though isolated strong gusts or hail may occur
    with any stronger cells. Additionally, with eastward extent into the
    Piedmont and Mid-Atlantic coastal areas, inhibition will increase
    during the evening as storms move into these areas, further limiting
    severe potential.

    ...NV into OR/ID...

    Scattered thunderstorms are expected during the afternoon amid
    increasing large-scale ascent and steepening mid and low-level lapse
    rates. Cool temperatures aloft will support steep midlevel lapse
    rates greater than 7-7.5 C/km, fostering up to 500 J/kg MLCAPE.
    Midlevel flow around 30-45 kt atop steep low-level lapse rates and a
    well-mixed boundary layer suggest some stronger outflow winds will
    be possible with the convection and a Marginal (level 1 of 5) risk
    has been included.

    ...South TX...

    Strong storms may be ongoing at the beginning of the period as the
    southwest extent of the aforementioned cold front overlies far South
    TX. Strong gusts could occur with this activity for a few hours in
    the morning before the boundary pushes south.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE FLORIDA
    EAST COAST INTO SOUTHERN PENNSYLVANIA...AND ACROSS EASTERN NEW
    MEXICO...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated strong to severe thunderstorms are possible along the
    Florida east coast into the North Carolina/Virginia Piedmont and
    southwestern Pennsylvania. Additional severe thunderstorms are
    possible across eastern New Mexico.

    ...Synopsis...
    The upper-level pattern will feature two cutoff lows, one in the
    lower/mid Ohio Valley and another that will develop near the lower
    Colorado Valley. A surface low in the central/northern Appalachians
    will slowly fill during the day. A cold front will slowly progress
    eastward through parts of the Southeast into the Blue
    Ridge/Piedmont. In New Mexico, weak moisture return and upslope flow
    will occur in the southern Rockies.

    ...Florida...
    With the front pushing into portions of the northern Gulf, weak warm
    air advection and mid-level ascent on the southern periphery of the
    upper low may promote showers/thunderstorms into the eastern Gulf
    and perhaps the western Florida Peninsula. This activity plus cloud
    cover associated with the subtropical jet will impact the degree of destabilization that occurs in some areas. Still, the pattern favors thunderstorm along the eastern sea breeze boundary during the
    afternoon. 1000-1500 J/kg MLCAPE along with 25-30 kts effective
    shear across the sea breeze will promote supercells. Temperatures
    aloft are expected to be -12 to -14 C. Large hail and damaging winds
    would be possible with the strongest storms. A tornado would be
    possible with a supercell favorably interacting with the sea breeze
    boundary. Additional storms are possible along the front in the
    eastern Florida Panhandle/North Florida. Shear will be stronger
    closer to the upper low, but convergence is not overly strong along
    the front. Storm development will depend on local areas of stronger heating/convergence.

    ...Georgia into Piedmont/Blue Ridge and upper Ohio Valley
    Vicinity...
    Precipitation will likely be ongoing for most of these areas early
    Sunday morning. With at least low 60s F dewpoints extending into
    much of the Mid-Atlantic, destabilization is expected behind the
    morning activity. Confidence in sufficient destabilization is
    greatest from eastern Georgia into the Carolinas as the
    precipitation should move out sooner. Potentially lingering
    precipitation and cloud cover cast more uncertainty on the severe
    potential for the Mid-Atlantic into the upper Ohio Valley region.
    500-1000 J/kg MLCAPE appears possible during the afternoon.
    Effective shear of 35-40 kts will promote a few marginally organized
    cells capable of marginally severe hail and isolated damaging winds.

    ...New Mexico...
    With the cold front having moved into the northern Gulf, moisture
    return along the western flank of the surface high will be weak. Mid
    to upper 40s F dewpoints can be reasonably expected. However,
    temperatures of -14 to -16 C at 500 mb will allow weak buoyancy to
    develop. Mid-level ascent from subtle shortwaves and upslope flow
    will promote widely scattered to scattered storms in the southern
    Rockies. A belt of stronger mid-level winds will promote at least
    modest storm organization despite limited buoyancy. Small to
    marginally severe hail and isolated strong winds would be possible
    with this activity.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated strong to severe thunderstorms are possible along the
    Florida east coast into the North Carolina/Virginia Piedmont and
    southwestern Pennsylvania. Additional severe thunderstorms are
    possible across eastern New Mexico.

    ...Synopsis...

    A mid/upper cyclone will remain positioned over the OH/TN Valley
    vicinity on Sunday. This will maintain a belt of enhanced mid/upper
    south to southwesterly flow from FL to the Upper OH Valley. Further
    west, a large-scale upper trough will develop eastward across the
    western states, while an upper low develops within the southern
    branch of this system across the Southwest. As this occurs,
    strengthening mid/upper south/southwesterly flow will overspread the
    southern Rockies and adjacent High Plains.

    At the surface, a weak low is expected across WV with a cold front
    extending south across the VA/NC Piedmont and the SC/GA coastal
    vicinity before arcing southwest across north FL and the eastern
    Gulf. Additionally, a sea breeze is expected to develop during the
    late morning into afternoon along the FL east coast. Modest boundary
    layer moisture from the upper 50s to mid 60s F (higher dewpoints
    with southward extent) will be in place ahead of the front. Across
    the southern Rockies/High Plains vicinity, lee troughing will
    modestly strengthen during the afternoon/evening. Richer moisture
    will remain well to the south, but dewpoints in the upper 40s to low
    50s F are forecast.

    ...Florida...

    Cool temperatures aloft (-12 to -14 C at 500 mb) will support steep
    midlevel lapse rates near 7 C/km. Strong heating and low to mid 60s
    F dewpoints beneath steep midlevel lapse rates will foster moderate instability, with MLCAPE values topping out near 2000 J/kg. While
    deep-layer flow will remain modest, effective shear near 25 kt and
    vertically veering profiles will support at least transient storm
    organization. Low-level convergence along the sea breeze and the
    moderately unstable airmass should support isolated to scattered
    robust updrafts. The strongest storms could produce marginally
    severe hail and severe/damaging gusts. While low-level shear will
    remain weak, sufficient moisture and 0-3 km MLCAPE amid small but
    curved low-level hodographs suggests a brief tornado or two could
    develop on the sea breeze boundary. Uncertainty regarding storm
    coverage and longevity of strong updrafts precludes higher severe
    probabilities at this time.

    ...Coastal GA/SC to southwest PA...

    A modestly destabilizing airmass ahead of the surface cold front and
    within the warm conveyor ahead of the upper low should support
    thunderstorm development during the afternoon. Low-level flow will
    remain light, but increase with height to around 50 kt at 500 mb,
    supporting 25-35 kt effective shear across the region, and leading
    to elongated/straight hodographs. Meanwhile, cool temperatures aloft
    (-14 to -18 C at 500 mb) will support midlevel lapse rates of 6.5-7
    C/km. Isolated to scattered thunderstorms may produce marginally
    severe hail and gusty winds through early evening.

    ...New Mexico...

    Despite meager boundary layer moisture, cool temperatures aloft will
    support steep midlevel lapse rates and modest destabilization during
    the afternoon/evening. Shortwave impulses ejecting through
    increasing south/southwesterly mid/upper flow ahead of the Southwest
    upper trough/low, and low-level upslope flow will allow for
    scattered thunderstorm development by late afternoon into the
    afternoon. Strong vertical shear should support at least a few
    organized cells despite modest instability, and isolated hail and
    strong gusts will be possible.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER PORTIONS OF
    WESTERN AND CENTRAL TEXAS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are possible from the southern High Plains into
    parts of central Texas Monday afternoon and evening. Large to very
    large hail and severe winds are the primary threats. Additional
    strong to severe storms are possible along the eastern Florida coast
    and from northeast North Carolina to the Lake Erie vicinity.

    ...Synopsis...
    Two upper-level lows, one in the Ohio Valley and the other in the
    Southwest, will make slow eastward progress on Monday. A cold front
    from the Upper Ohio Valley southward into the Mid-Atlantic and
    central Florida will be a focus for convection during the afternoon.
    In the southern High Plains, a surface trough/dryline will form and
    promote afternoon thunderstorms as greater moisture moves westward
    into the region.

    ...Southern High Plains into Central Texas...
    As the upper low advances toward the region late Sunday into Monday,
    some convection is possible from northeast New Mexico into the Texas
    Panhandle and western Oklahoma. Low cloud cover is also expected
    along with the moisture returning northwest across Texas into
    eastern New Mexico. While these will be complicating factors in the
    forecast, the approach of the upper low and embedded perturbations
    will encourage the development of a dryline from far eastern New
    Mexico into the Trans-Pecos. Strong heating along this dryline,
    where upper 50s to mid 60s dewpoints will reside, will drive storm
    development during the afternoon. Hodographs will initially be
    rather straight. Splitting supercells capable of large/very-large
    hail and severe winds are probable. During the early evening, the
    low-level jet will strengthen. Moisture return will increase and
    low-level hodographs will become larger. A zone of greater tornado
    potential is evident from southern portions of the South Plains into
    the northern Permian Basin, particularly for supercells lasting into
    the early evening.

    The evolution of convection becomes a bit more uncertain into the
    later evening. The ramp up in the low-level jet should eventually
    promote upscale growth into a cluster/MCS. This activity could
    persist into parts of central Texas. Model guidance continues to
    differ on the placement of this feature. The exact track will depend
    largely on how far north the greater moisture is able to advect.
    Severe winds would be the primary threat with these storms, though
    low-level shear would also support some tornado risk even with a
    linear mode. During the overnight and into Tuesday morning, the
    greatest mid-level height falls will occur in the southern High
    Plains. An additional cluster/MCS on the retreating dryline. How
    severe this activity will be is unclear given the time of day and
    the preceding convection.

    ...Florida...
    With cold temperatures aloft (-10 to -12 C) remaining over the
    Peninsula and stronger surface heating expected to occur, a few
    strong to severe storms will again be possible along the eastern sea
    breeze boundary. 1500-2000 J/kg MLCAPE and 25-35 kts of effective
    shear (stronger to the north) will promote supercell structures
    capable of large hail and damaging winds. A brief tornado would be
    possible with storms that interact favorably with the sea breeze
    boundary.

    ...Mid-Atlantic into Upper Ohio Valley...
    While some precipitation and cloud cover may occur early Monday
    morning, models continue to show agreement that pockets of surface
    heating will promote around 1000 J/kg by the afternoon. Enhanced
    mid-level winds around the Ohio Valley upper low will foster 40-45
    kts of effective shear. Isolated large hail and strong/damaging
    winds will be possible with the strongest storms.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS FAR
    SOUTHEAST NEW MEXICO INTO SOUTHWEST TEXAS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are expected from the southern High Plains into
    parts of central Texas Monday afternoon and evening. Scattered large
    to very large hail and severe winds are the primary threats, though
    a couple of tornadoes also are possible. Additional strong to severe
    storms are possible along the eastern Florida coast and from
    northeast North Carolina to the Lake Erie vicinity.

    ...Synopsis...

    A pair of upper cyclones, one over the Ohio Valley and the other
    across the Southwest, will pivot east on Monday. These systems will
    support a belt of enhanced mid/upper flow across the southern
    Rockies/High Plains and the Mid-Atlantic/Lower Great Lakes. At the
    surface, a cold front will stretch from the Mid-Atlantic
    south/southwest into north-central FL. Meanwhile, a dryline is
    forecast to develop across eastern NM and southwest TX, while a warm
    front lifts slowly northward across northwest and central TX. These
    features will focus potential for severe thunderstorms Monday
    afternoon into the evening/overnight.

    ...Southeast NM into Central TX...

    Southeasterly low-level flow will transport 60s F dewpoints
    northwest toward southeast NM into the Trans-Pecos vicinity ahead of
    a sharpening dryline. Strong heating along/just behind the dryline
    will foster moderate diurnal destabilization as deep-layer flow
    strengthens. Forecast hodographs initially will be
    elongated/straight through the afternoon and early evening.
    Splitting supercells produce large/very large hail are expected with
    initial convection. Furthermore, steep low-level lapse rates where
    stronger heating occurs also could support strong/severe gusts.

    During the evening, a low-level jet will increase, resulting in
    enlarged/curved low-level hodographs. Additional rounds of
    supercells may develop as the dryline begins to retreat and stronger
    ascent overspreads the region. This activity will continue to pose a significant hail risk with an increasing risk for a couple of
    tornadoes. As the upper low draws closer to the southern Rockies
    during the nighttime hours, weak cyclogenesis may occur over far
    southwest TX. Additional thunderstorm clusters, possibly growing
    upscale into an MCS propagating along the higher theta-e gradient
    across west-central to central TX is possible. It is uncertain how
    intense this convection may become given multiple rounds of
    convection across parts of the area earlier in the day, but some
    risk for damaging gusts and a tornado or two will persist.

    ...OK/TX Panhandle into Northeast NM/southeast CO...

    With northward extent across the southern High Plains, northward
    moisture return will remain muted, with dewpoints generally in the
    40s to low 50s F forecast. Nevertheless, cooling aloft will support
    steepening midlevel lapse rates amid strengthening vertical shear.
    Isolated large hail and gusty winds may accompany thunderstorm
    activity north of the effective warm front in an upslope flow
    regime.

    ...Mid-Atlantic to Lower Great Lakes...

    Pockets of heating into the afternoon amid mid 50s to low 60s F
    dewpoints, and cold temperatures aloft will support modest
    destabilization (up to 1000 J/kg MLCAPE) across the region. Enhanced
    midlevel flow will support effective shear values to around 35-45
    kt. This should support isolated organized updrafts, with stronger
    cells having potential for large hail and locally strong gusts
    during the afternoon and early evening.

    ...FL...

    A surface cold front will sag south through the period. Furthermore,
    an east coast sea breeze developing ahead of the cold front appears
    probable. Strong heating amid mid 60s F dewpoints will aid in
    moderate destabilization (MLCAPE up to 2000 J/kg). Cool temperatures
    aloft (-10 to -12 C at 500 mb) will support midlevel lapse rates
    near 7 C/km. While deep-layer flow will be somewhat weak through 700
    mb, vertically veering wind profiles will support around 30 kt
    effective shear. Elongated/straight hodographs in conjunction with a
    favorable thermodynamic environment suggests isolated hail will be
    possible. Steep low-level lapse rates also will support strong
    gusts.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM CENTRAL TEXAS
    INTO THE SABINE VALLEY...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are possible from portions of the southern
    Plains into the lower Mississippi Valley on Tuesday. Severe winds,
    large to very large hail, and a few tornadoes are possible.
    Additional isolated strong to severe storms capable of large hail
    and isolated wind damage are possible within parts of the northern
    Mid-Atlantic states.

    ...Synopsis...
    With the blocking pattern still in place, the upper lows in the Ohio
    Valley and Southwest will continue to make slow progress on Tuesday.
    A shortwave trough on the base of the upper low is expected to eject
    into the southern Plains. This will promote severe potential across
    much of the region into the Lower Mississippi Valley. Rich moisture
    will continue to push into much of Texas and a warm front will lift
    to near the Red River.

    ...Central/East Texas into Western Louisiana...
    A complicated forecast exists across these regions. Convection is
    anticipated to develop in West Texas along a retreating dryline late
    on Day 1/Monday. Models are in general agreement that some of this
    activity will persist into Tuesday morning in central Texas. A very
    moist airmass (mid 60s to low 70s F dewpoints) will be advecting northward/westward ahead of this activity. There is some potential
    for this activity to remain slightly elevated given the early
    morning timing and some overnight boundary layer cooling. However,
    high theta-e advection will also mitigate inhibition. Though this
    uncertainty remains, the Slight risk has been moved farther westward
    in central Texas to account for potential near-surface/surface based
    storms early on Tuesday. Additional early morning activity is
    expected along the northward lifting warm front as the shortwave
    trough ejects into the southern Plains and the low-level jet
    impinges on the boundary.

    How this morning activity evolves will greatly impact the potential
    for higher-end severe storms in the afternoon and what the greatest
    severe hazard will be. The very moist airmass and steep mid-level
    lapse rates will promote a zone of 2500-3500 J/kg MLCAPE in parts of Central/East Texas south of the warm front. With greater than 50 kts
    of effective shear, all severe hazards would be possible regardless
    of the ultimate evolution of the convection. That being said, there
    appears to be a corridor of conditionally higher severe potential
    near and just south of the warm front in Northeast Texas into
    northwest Louisiana. Should a more organized cluster/MCS persist
    through Monday night into Tuesday morning, there is greater
    potential for a swath of severe wind gusts as the airmass
    destabilizes ahead of it. Without the MCS, there is greater
    potential for storms developing along the warm front to produce
    tornadoes (perhaps strong) as the strong low-level jet and fringe of
    the steeper lapse rates will overlap.

    Given the weakly capped boundary layer even early in the day, there
    is reasonable confidence in numerous storms, particularly along the
    warm front. With large amounts of storm interference possible, on
    top of potential MCS, confidence is not high enough to increase
    tornado probabilities. Concerning the MCS and greater severe wind
    potential, models vary greatly on the placement of this feature.
    Similarly, confidence is too low for higher wind probabilities as
    well. Overall, scattered to numerous storms along the warm front and
    dryline in central Texas will be capable of all severe hazards. Very
    large hail is most likely along the dryline or with storms that
    develop along the southern edge of any MCS.

    ...Red River Vicinity...
    Storms near the Red River and northward are more likely to be
    elevated. Large hail and perhaps isolated damaging gusts could
    occur. There is some tornado potential south of the Red River into
    North Texas where storms will be at least near-surface based.

    ...Texas Panhandle...
    With the upper-level low moving into parts of the Panhandle and weak
    surface low in the South Plains, there is potential for moisture to
    remain along a surface boundary. Several models show low 50s F
    dewpoints in the region. The question will be how much surface
    heating occurs. Should sufficient buoyancy develop, cold
    temperatures aloft will promote potential for marginally severe hail
    and isolated severe gusts in the strongest storms.

    ...Northern Mid-Atlantic...
    With the Upper Ohio Valley cyclone moving slowly northeast, there
    will be potential for another round of convection to develop near
    the core of the upper low where greater surface heating occurs.
    Marginally severe hail and isolated wind damage will be possible
    with storms during the afternoon.

    ...South Texas...
    Forcing for ascent will be somewhat weak during the afternoon and
    storm development is not certain. Some model guidance suggests that
    storms could form during the overnight near the Rio Grande Valley as
    a shortwave impulse moves over South Texas and adjacent Mexico.
    Large hail and severe winds would be possible with any supercells
    that can develop.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS NORTHWEST
    TEXAS...AND CENTRAL TEXAS INTO THE SABINE VALLEY...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are possible from portions of the southern
    Plains into the lower Mississippi Valley on Tuesday. Severe winds,
    large to very large hail, and a few tornadoes are possible.
    Additional isolated strong to severe storms capable of large hail
    and isolated wind damage are possible within parts of the northern
    Mid-Atlantic states.

    ...Synopsis...
    A mid-level blocking pattern will start to break down during the day
    2 period with the mid-level low in the Southwest and the Ohio Valley
    starting to advance east-northeast. A weak surface low will linger
    near the eastern Great Lakes through the period on Tuesday. Broad
    low pressure will persist across Texas with a sharpening dryline
    during the afternoon across central Texas and a warm front extending
    from northeast Texas into northern Louisiana and southern
    Mississippi.

    ...Mid Atlantic to Northeast...
    Upper 50s to near 60s dewpoints will advect north across parts of
    the Mid-Atlantic and into the Northeast on Tuesday. This, combined
    with some surface heating and cool temperatures aloft beneath the
    upper low, should support weak to moderate instability. Scattered
    strong to severe storms are expected during the afternoon/early
    evening with a threat for large hail and damaging wind gusts.

    ...Central/Eastern Texas into LA and southern MS...
    A cluster of supercells or MCS will likely be ongoing at the
    beginning of the period across central Texas. This will continue to
    pose a threat for large hail and severe wind gusts through the
    morning as it moves along a warm front in the region. As the warm
    front continues to advect inland, destabilization will occur ahead
    of this ongoing convection. This will likely result in additional
    development along the warm front and also on the southern end of the
    ongoing activity. Strong shear will support supercells capable of
    large hail and severe wind gusts. In addition, a few tornadoes are
    possible with any supercells which can remain rooted within the warm
    sector.

    In the wake of the morning activity in central Texas, surface
    heating is expected along the dryline in central Texas during the
    afternoon. It is unclear whether substantial recovery will occur for
    additional supercell development in this region during the
    afternoon/evening, but if supercells develop they will pose a threat
    for large to very large hail and severe wind gusts.

    ...Northwest Texas Vicinity...
    As morning convection/cloud cover clears out to the northeast,
    substantial heating may occur beneath the upper low for some
    low-topped supercell development along an occluded front which will
    extend from central Texas into northwest Texas. These storms will be
    capable of large hail and perhaps a brief tornado.

    ...South Texas...
    Isolated supercells are possible along the dryline Tuesday
    afternoon/evening. Extreme instability and very strong shear will
    support supercells capable of very large hail with any sustained
    supercells that form. However, only weak height falls during the
    afternoon and limited convergence along the dryline, as low-level
    flow veers across the warm sector, should keep supercells
    development isolated. The HRRR has more robust convective
    development with storms off higher terrain in northern Mexico and
    additional development in South Texas. Should this occur, higher
    hail/wind probabilities would be necessary given the environment.
    However, forcing does not support this scenario with height rises
    across South Texas and a low-level jet focused across
    Louisiana/southern Mississippi.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM SOUTH TEXAS
    TO THE UPPER TEXAS COAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe storms are possible from the South Texas into the
    Upper Texas Coast on Wednesday. Large hail and strong to severe
    winds are the main hazards.

    ...Synopsis...
    A mid-level shortwave trough will move into the Mid-South and weaken
    on Wednesday. The upper-level low will remain within parts of the central/southern Plains. While low-level moisture will remain high
    across parts of Texas, a nebulous surface pattern will limit the
    potential for focused/organized severe weather. A stalled surface boundary/outflow will be the primary zone of concern during the
    afternoon.

    ...South Texas into Upper Texas Coast...
    A stalled boundary is expected from South Texas northeastward
    towards the Sabine Valley. Convergence along this boundary will be
    weak and mid-level height tendencies will be neutral, but strong
    surface heating and perhaps subtle mid-level ascent could promote
    isolated storms along this boundary. Strong buoyancy and over 50 kts
    of effective shear will support a risk for large hail and strong to
    severe winds. Discrete storms are possible initially, but shear
    mostly parallel to the surface boundary suggests storm interactions
    would be probable. This, along with rather modest mid-level lapse
    rates should keep the potential for very-large hail low.

    ...Oklahoma...
    With the upper-level low moving into Oklahoma and Kansas by the
    afternoon. Cold temperatures aloft will support some convective
    development within a very weak surface reflection/convergence
    beneath the upper low. Dewpoints will not be overly high for this
    time of year (mid/upper 50s F). While models have generally trended
    a bit stronger with the feature, the greatest mid-level winds will
    be displaced farther to the south from where the highest confidence
    in convective development is (northern into perhaps parts of central
    Oklahoma). There will be a zone in south-central into southeast
    Oklahoma that could support a stronger storm, but this threat is
    rather conditional.

    ...Central into East Texas...
    East of the I-35 corridor, upper mid/upper 60s F dewpoints are
    possible in the wake of convection Tuesday night into Wednesday
    morning. Given the weakening upper-level system, the surface pattern
    will be quite diffuse/disorganized. Sufficient shear and buoyancy
    will exist for strong to severe storms, but storm development is
    highly uncertain/conditional. Mid-level ascent will be weak as
    height tendencies will be neutral. Other than a mesoscale zone of
    convergence or perhaps an outflow boundary from convection near the
    Gulf Coast, low-level forcing will also be weak.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN PARTS OF SOUTH
    TX...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe thunderstorms are possible across the southern Great
    Plains to coastal Louisiana on Wednesday. Large hail should be the
    main hazard, which appears most likely in parts of south Texas
    during the late afternoon to early evening.

    ...Synopsis...
    Primary mid/upper low near the KS/OK border will drift east and
    gradually dampen through the period. A minor surface wave may
    accompany this low with a dryline extending south into south-central
    TX. A broad MCS on D1 should yield large-scale convective outflow
    near the upper TX to LA coast at 12Z Wednesday.

    ...South TX to coastal LA...
    An extensive swath of convection will likely be ongoing across
    portions of the northwest to north-central Gulf Coast. Limited real
    estate may exist for morning severe, but could possibly affect
    coastal LA where a low-probability wind/tornado threat has been
    added. Afternoon to early evening thunderstorm redevelopment along
    and north of the large-scale outflow will be dependent on its
    spatial placement, as large-scale ascent wanes amid neutral
    mid-level height change. A few supercells seem most probable where
    the boundary intersects with the south-central TX dryline. Ample
    buoyancy to the south of the outflow, along with strong effective
    shear north of it, should yield a corridor of large hail threat
    initially. Mid/upper flow tending to orient along the boundary will
    support some clustering into the evening. This should limit coverage
    of very large hail potential, with a mixed isolated severe hail/wind
    threat across the coastal plain.

    ...Central/eastern OK into north TX...
    Despite a fairly weak surface reflection and attendant convergence,
    12Z CAM guidance is consistent with scattered storms developing
    southeast of the mid/upper low in OK, and isolated storms into north
    TX along the dryline. Guidance more broadly varies with degree of destabilization/residual boundary-layer moisture in the wake of
    extensive convective overturning on D1. Still, with steep mid-level
    lapse rates accompanying the low and greater boundary-layer heating
    in its vicinity tomorrow compared to today, a threat for at least
    isolated severe hail and localized strong gusts is apparent. For
    now, have upgraded to a level 1/MRGL hail-driven risk.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER A BROAD
    PORTION OF THE SOUTHERN AND EASTERN CONUS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe thunderstorms with large hail and damaging winds are
    possible, mainly Thursday afternoon and evening, from southern Texas
    across the Southeast and into the Lower Mid-Atlantic States.

    ...Synopsis...
    An elongated trough from the Northeast into the Southwest will shift
    eastward on Thursday. Areas of moderate mid-level winds will support
    some potential for strong to severe storms across a very broad
    region from the Trans-Pecos into the Mid-South/Southeast and the
    southern Mid-Atlantic. As the trough will be highly positively
    tilted, the surface pattern will be rather nebulous and mid-level
    ascent will be weak. A weak surface boundary is expected from parts
    of the southern Plains into the Mid Atlantic. Outlook refinement is
    possible as greater details of potential mesoscale severe risk
    corridors become more evident.

    ...Mid-South...
    A weak surface front may help to focus convective development during
    the afternoon. Given the orientation of the upper trough, mid-level
    ascent will be rather weak. Still, temperatures will be cold aloft
    and shear on the southern periphery of the weak upper low will be
    sufficient for isolated organized cells capable of large hail and
    damaging winds. Storm coverage and timing remain a bit uncertain as
    some cloud cover (some with the upper low and other influence from
    convection farther south) could hinder surface heating. These
    uncertainties preclude higher hail probabilities.

    ...Trans-Pecos into Rio Grande Valley...
    A modest shortwave trough in northern Mexico will slide eastward
    into the Trans-Pecos by early afternoon. Storms are expected to
    initiate within the Davis Mountains and move southeastward into low
    60s F dewpoints. Temperatures aloft will not be overly cold, but
    1000-1500 J/kg MLCAPE can be expected as the storms move into richer
    moisture. It is possible that this activity grows upscale and moves
    along the Rio Grande Valley into South Texas late evening into early
    Friday morning. Given the timing of this activity, some boundary
    layer cooling will have occurred and marginally warmer air aloft in
    forecast soundings may limit a more organized severe threat.

    ...Southern Mid-Atlantic...
    Modest mid-level forcing should promote convection along the
    Appalachians/Blue Ridge. A well-mixed boundary layer with 500-1000
    J/kg MLCAPE and 35-40 kts of effective shear will allow for a few
    organized storms during the afternoon. Damaging winds and isolated
    marginally severe hail may occur.

    ...Southern Atlantic Coast...
    Though models differ on the placement of the stronger core of
    mid-level winds, sufficient westerly flow aloft is probable for a
    few organized storms along the sea breeze boundary. Temperatures
    should remain cold enough aloft to support a large hail threat.
    Damaging winds are also possible.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER THE SOUTHERN APPALACHIANS AND RIO GRANDE VALLEY...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered damaging winds and severe hail are possible over the
    southern Appalachians on Thursday afternoon to early evening. A
    swath of large hail and severe wind is possible along the Rio Grande
    Valley from mid-afternoon to evening.

    ...Synopsis...
    An elongated, positive-tilt mid/upper trough from southeast Canada
    to the Rio Grande will slowly progress east on Thursday. At least a
    trio of embedded shortwave impulses will aid in corridors of modest
    large-scale ascent, amid a pervasive swath of 35-50 kt 500-mb west-southwesterlies across the South into the East. Given the
    highly positive-tilt orientation of the trough, attendant surface
    reflections will remain weak. A minor surface wave over the
    Mid-South should decay by early evening, while a separate low drifts
    northeast from the lee of the southern Appalachians to VA.

    ...Mid-South to southern Appalachians...
    Multiple corridors of scattered thunderstorm development are
    expected by Thursday afternoon, ahead of a shortwave impulse
    drifting from the Ozarks across a portion of the Mid-South.
    Lingering activity/cloud cover during the morning will serve as the
    northern limiter to severe potential, along with weaker deep-layer
    shear closer to the trough. The most likely zone for a scattered
    severe hail and damaging wind threat appears to be across the
    southern Appalachians vicinity where MLCAPE of 1000-1500 J/kg and
    30-40 kt effective bulk shear are anticipated. Here, a few
    supercells may congeal into an organized cluster or two. Farther
    west, lesser values of instability and shear should yield a more isolated/marginal severe threat.

    ...TX Rio Grande Valley...
    A low-amplitude shortwave impulse should progress from northern
    Chihuahua along the Rio Grande. Numerous thunderstorms are expected
    ahead of the impulse across the southern Trans-Pecos/Big Bend by
    mid-afternoon and adjacent Coahuila. Uncertainty increases with how
    this activity will evolve downstream Thursday evening, potentially
    remaining primarily across northeast Mexico or growing upscale
    across the Lower Rio Grande Valley into Deep South TX as it impinges
    on richer low-level moisture. With low-level northeasterlies beneath mid/upper-level west-southwesterlies, an elongated/nearly
    straight-line hodograph is expected. This should foster splitting
    supercell structures, which could congeal into a cluster/small MCS.
    The primary limiting factor to more robust intensity will be a lack
    of steep mid-level lapse rates amid weak warm advection. Still,
    enough signal exists to warrant a level 2/SLGT risk.

    ...Southern Mid-Atlantic...
    Modest mid-level forcing for ascent should promote isolated to
    scattered thunderstorms developing off the central Appalachians and
    Blue Ridge Mountains on Thursday afternoon. A well-mixed boundary
    layer with weak MLCAPE and moderate effective shear will allow for a
    few transient/weakly organized cells during the afternoon. This
    could promote small hail amid weak mid-level lapse rates and support
    a primary threat of localized damaging winds.

    ...Southern Atlantic Coast...
    Sufficient mid-level westerlies are expected to support a few weakly
    organized storms along the sea breeze boundary on Thursday
    afternoon. Mid-level temperatures should remain cold enough to
    support an isolated severe hail threat. A warm/moist boundary layer
    will also foster isolated strong to severe gusts.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PORTIONS OF
    THE SOUTHEAST INTO THE SOUTHERN MID-ATLANTIC...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe thunderstorms, capable of damaging winds along with
    some hail, are possible across the Southeast States and southern
    Mid-Atlantic, mainly on Friday afternoon to early evening.

    ...Synopsis...
    A stronger upper-level trough in the Northeast will shear apart the
    elongated trough structure that has been present for the last few
    days in the East. A cutoff low will develop in the lower Mississippi
    Valley region. A diffuse surface cold front will be the primary
    focus for convection along with additional potential along the
    Gulf/Atlantic sea breeze boundaries in Florida. A belt of stronger
    mid-level winds near the Gulf/Atlantic coasts will promote modest
    storm organization.

    ...Southeast Virginia into North Carolina...
    Mid-level ascent will be greater in these areas. With a weak surface
    low and front moving through, there could be a greater concentration
    of storms than farther south. Models are consistent with at least
    modest early day precipitation occurring along with lingering cloud
    cover. Depending on afternoon destabilization, there could be a
    locally greater corridor of wind/hail potential.

    ...Southeast into eastern Florida Peninsula...
    Surface heating near a diffuse surface boundary (Atlantic sea breeze
    in Florida) will promote 1500-2000 J/kg MLCAPE by the afternoon. A
    belt of stronger mid-level winds across these areas will support at
    least isolated organized storms. Damaging winds will be possible and
    modest mid-level lapse rates will support some threat for large hail
    as well.

    ...Florida Panhandle...
    Depending on the track of an MCV within the Gulf, surface heating
    and the Gulf breeze boundary will be potential triggers for
    convection during the afternoon. Shear will be modest (25-30 kts),
    but a few stronger storms may produce damaging winds or marginally
    severe hail. Should the MCV track closer to the shore, surface
    heating would be more limited, but isolated wind damage could occur
    with any linear segments associated with the MCV.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM PARTS OF
    THE GULF COAST STATES NORTHWARD INTO THE CAROLINAS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe thunderstorms capable of damaging gusts and large
    hail are possible across the Southeast States.

    ...Synopsis...
    Upper troughiness will extend from the Northeast southwestward into
    TX, with upper lows in both locales. The low/trough over the Mid
    Atlantic and New England will deepen through the period, with the
    base of this wave sweeping across VA and NC. To the south, cool
    midlevel temperatures will remain over the Gulf Coast states as a
    positive tilt trough develops over the western Gulf.

    At the surface, weak low pressure will develop from the Mid Atlantic
    Coast to the eastern Carolinas, ahead of a cold front. Sufficient
    moisture will exist ahead of the front, from far southeast VA toward
    the Gulf Coast and FL, to support scattered strong and isolated
    severe daytime storms.

    ...Southeastern States...
    Although the Gulf Coast portion of the front will be weak, moderate
    instability due to strong heating should lead to scattered storms by
    late afternoon in an east-west zone from southern MS into southern
    GA. Forecast soundings depict weak shear but a steep lapse rate
    environment favorable for diurnal hail. Cold downdrafts may also
    yield localized wind damage.

    To the north, storms will increase in coverage over much of the
    Carolinas into far southeast VA. Instability may be a bit marginal
    over north parts of this region due to early development. However,
    pockets of air mass recovery will support scattered strong storms,
    aided by the upper trough influence to the north.

    Over FL, strong heating beneath cool midlevel temperatures (500 mb
    around -11 C) will result in moderate instability. Isolated storms
    are likely to develop over the interior Peninsula, with large hail
    potential. Storms should move slowly given weak flow below 500 mb,
    and as such, the threat should remain relatively localized.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS SATURDAY ACROSS
    PARTS OF CNTRL AND NORTHERN FL...SRN GA...AND WRN INTO CNTRL MT...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Strong thunderstorms may impact parts of northern and central
    Florida and adjacent southern Georgia on Saturday. Additional
    strong thunderstorms may impact parts of western into central
    Montana. Some of these storms may be accompanied by at least some
    risk for severe weather.

    ...Discussion...
    It appears that much of North America will remain under the
    influence of split, amplified westerlies through this period and
    beyond, with flow in the northern mid-latitudes remaining stronger
    than in the southern mid- and subtropical latitudes. Within this
    regime, a significant mid-level trough is forecast to continue
    digging offshore of the British Columbia coast toward the Pacific
    Northwest, preceded inland by a less prominent, northeastward
    accelerating perturbation into/across and east-northeast of the
    Canadian Rockies.

    Models indicate that the lead perturbation may be accompanied by
    weak cyclogenesis to the lee of the Canadian and adjacent northern
    U.S. Rockies, as it begins to progress around the western periphery
    of large-scale mid-level ridging shifting across/east of the
    Canadian Prairies, northern U.S. Great Plains and Upper Midwest.

    As the ridging overspreads the interior northern tier of the U.S.,
    it appears that a broad mid-level low, initially centered just
    inland of the north central Gulf coast, will move little or perhaps
    retrograde to the west and southwest Saturday through Saturday
    night. An associated broad, weak low-level baroclinic zone may
    remain quasi-stationary near/just offshore of the Carolina coast
    through northern Florida, to a weak surface low near/offshore of the southeastern Louisiana coast, but this remains a bit uncertain due
    to model spread.

    Higher moisture content air will generally be confined to a corridor
    focused above/to the cool side of the frontal zone, and within a
    warm sector plume extending east of the mid-level low southward
    toward the tropical latitudes.

    ...Southeast...
    In additional to the uncertain details concerning the north central
    Gulf frontal low and downstream frontal movement, spread evident in
    model output concerning the sub-synoptic developments adds
    uncertainty to the convective forecast. However, while the
    mid-level cold core remains well upstream, it does appear that much
    of northern/central Florida and adjacent portions of the Gulf States
    will remain under the influence of a broadly difluent, modest
    southwesterly mid/upper flow regime.

    Although higher moisture content and more widespread convective
    development may tend to remain focused well offshore, across the
    northeastern Gulf, the front zone and inland advancing sea-breezes
    might provide focus for widely scattered strong thunderstorm
    development during the day. Aided by modestly steep lower/mid-level
    lapse rates, the environment may become conducive for a few of these
    storms to pose a risk for severe hail and wind. Some model output
    suggests that low-level flow northeast of the surface low might
    contribute to hodographs conducive to some risk for a tornado,
    mainly across and west of the Florida Big Bend vicinity.

    ...Montana...
    There is a notable signal within model output concerning the
    potential for the initiation of thunderstorm activity across the
    higher terrain of western Montana, and the subsequent evolution of
    an upscale growing cluster into/across north central Montana
    Saturday afternoon and evening. Moisture/instability within
    thermodynamic profiles characterized by the evolution of a deep and
    well-mixed boundary is forecast to be weak. But shear/momentum
    associated with 40-50+ kt west-southwesterly mid/upper flow may
    become conducive to a few storms initially posing a risk for small
    to marginally severe hail, before strong to severe wind gusts become
    the primary potential hazard until storms weaken Saturday night.

    THE FL PENINSULA THROUGH NORTHEASTERN FL...MUCH OF GA AND
    SC...ADJACENT PORTIONS OF NC...NRN/ERN AL...ADJACENT SRN TN...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered strong thunderstorms may impact parts of the Southeast on
    Monday, particularly a corridor across the Florida Peninsula into
    the South Carolina Piedmont, where strongest activity may pose a
    risk for producing a couple of tornadoes and locally strong surface
    gusts.

    ...Discussion...
    Latest model output remains similar to prior runs concerning the
    mid/upper flow evolution through this period. Within the amplified,
    split westerlies, one significant trough is forecast to continue
    digging inland of the U.S. Pacific coast, downstream of a prominent
    ridge now building across the mid-latitude eastern Pacific. It
    still appears that at least one notable smaller-scale perturbation
    emerging from this trough will accelerate northeast of the northern
    U.S. Rockies into the Canadian Prairies, around the northwestern
    periphery of broad downstream ridging encompassing much of the U.S.
    northern Great Plains through the Great Lakes and St. Lawrence
    Valley.

    In lower-levels, models indicate that deeper surface troughing will
    shift east of the Canadian and northern U.S. Rockies into
    Saskatchewan/Manitoba and the Dakotas, while deepening southward
    through the southern high plains. However, destabilization near
    this feature is likely to be significantly inhibited by warm air
    aloft, and the lack of appreciable low-level moisture return due to
    the continuing presence of a broad mid/upper low initially centered
    across the lower Mississippi Valley.

    Cut off from the stronger westerlies, to the south of the broad
    mid-level ridging, movement of this low is likely to remain slow;
    however, models indicate that it will probably elongate
    north-northeastward across the Mid South and lower Ohio Valley,
    while taking on a negative tilt east of the lower Mississippi Valley
    into Southeast. In lower levels, this may be accompanied by broad,
    weak surface troughing developing across much of the Southeast, as
    surface ridging slowly shifts east of the Atlantic Seaboard.

    ...Southeast...
    Differences linger among the various model output, but the gradient
    between the low-level ridging and troughing may continue to support
    a belt of modest southerly low-level flow (20-30+ kt around 850 mb)
    along a corridor roughly from the Florida Peninsula into the South
    Carolina Piedmont. It appears probable that this will coincide with
    a deep lower/mid-tropospheric moist plume emanating from the lower
    latitudes, beneath a belt of moderate to strong, difluent
    southwesterly high-level flow

    Much of this corridor may be impacted by considerable remnant
    convectively generated cloud cover, and perhaps continuing scattered thunderstorm development, at the outset of the period. However, the environment appears at least conditionally supportive of organized
    convection, including supercells, with potential to produce
    tornadoes and damaging wind gusts. And breaks in the cloud cover
    during the day may allow for sufficient insolation and
    boundary-layer destabilization to allow for some of this potential
    to be realized.

    Otherwise, closer to the mid-level cold core, models suggest that
    forcing for ascent downstream of an embedded cyclonic vorticity
    center may aid thunderstorm development across the northern/eastern
    Alabama into western Georgia vicinity. Despite at least some
    low-level drying in the wake of the aforementioned moist plume,
    thermodynamic profiles might still become conducive to small to
    marginally severe hail in widely scattered stronger cells, in the
    presence of modest deep-layer shear.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER PARTS OF FLORIDA...SOUTHERN GEORGIA AND ALABAMA...AND INTO CENTRAL MONTANA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Strong thunderstorms may impact parts of northern and central
    Florida and adjacent southern Georgia and Alabama on Saturday.
    Additional strong thunderstorms may impact parts of western into
    central Montana.

    ...Synopsis...
    An upper cyclone will remain over the Sabine Valley, with cold air
    aloft extending from TX toward the northern Gulf Coast. At the
    surface, low pressure will move from the northern Gulf into LA/MS,
    with a stationary front over southern AL and GA. A moist and
    unstable air mass will exist south of this boundary, supporting
    bouts of thunderstorms.

    To the west, strong southwest winds aloft will spread across the
    Pacific Northwest and into ID and western MT late. Heating within a
    surface trough over western MT combined with cooling aloft may
    support scattered high based storms.

    ...FL into far southern GA/AL...
    Numerous storms are forecast over parts of the Gulf Of America and
    extending from southern AL into the FL Panhandle during the day.
    Associated outflows may be strong given the amount of convection.
    Veering winds with height in the low levels may support rotation at
    times, and a brief tornado cannot be ruled out along the stationary
    front.

    During the afternoon, strong heating will lead to storms from
    central FL into southern GA, and cool temperatures aloft may favor
    sporadic hail.

    ...West-central MT...
    Scattered fast-moving storms are forecast after about 21Z along the
    ID/MT border and spreading from western into north-central MT. While
    high based, steep lapse rates along with favorable mean winds/deep
    shear will support both strong to severe gusts and marginal hail.

    GA......SRN/WRN AL...CNTRL/ERN MS...CNTRL/ERN MT...WRN ND...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Widely scattered strong thunderstorms may impact the eastern Gulf
    Coast states on Sunday, posing at least some risk for severe hail
    and locally strong surface gusts. Additional thunderstorms may be
    accompanied by some risk for severe hail and strong to severe wind
    gusts across parts of central and eastern Montana into western North
    Dakota late Sunday afternoon and evening.

    ...Synopsis...
    Models continue to indicate little change to the general large-scale
    pattern through this period, with much of North America remaining
    under the influence of amplified, split westerlies - stronger across
    the northern mid-latitudes than across the southern mid- and
    subtropical latitudes. Within this regime, significant mid-level
    troughing, with at least a couple of smaller-scale embedded
    perturbations, is forecast to begin digging inland of the northern
    U.S. Pacific coast. As this occurs, broad downstream ridging will
    continue slowly eastward across the interior of North America, with
    the leading edge likely as far east as the St. Lawrence Valley and
    Northeast by late Sunday night. To the south of this ridge, the
    center of a broad, initially quasi-stationary mid-level low may
    begin a very slow acceleration back to the northeast, across the
    lower Mississippi Valley, in response to the troughing digging into
    the Northwest.

    In lower levels, it appears that one initial weak low across the
    Canadian Prairies will weaken further, as surface troughing
    deepens upstream, to the lee of the Canadian and northern U.S.
    Rockies. At the same time, cool surface ridging, initially centered
    across the lower Great Lakes vicinity, is likely to redevelop
    southeastward off the northern Mid Atlantic coast. Near the
    southwestern periphery of this ridge, a broad area of lower surface
    pressure may continue developing inland of the north central Gulf
    coast, perhaps accompanied by some further boundary-layer moistening
    inland across parts of the eastern Gulf states. Seasonably high
    moisture content, though, may remain confined to a narrow plume
    southeast through south of the mid-level low, from south Carolina
    and Georgia coastal areas across the Florida Peninsula into the
    lower latitudes.

    ...Lower Mississippi Valley/eastern Gulf Coast states...
    Beneath the modest, difluent southwesterly flow, downstream of the
    mid/upper low, model forecast soundings continue to suggest that
    thermodynamic profiles could become conducive to widely scattered
    strong thunderstorms with potential to produce severe hail and
    locally strong surface gusts by Sunday afternoon. Just east of the
    broad, weak surface low centered over the lower Mississippi Valley,
    a belt of modest southerly 850 mb flow may contribute to low-level
    hodographs which may become marginally conducive to a tornado or
    two.

    ...North Rockies into adjacent Great Plains...
    Downstream of the large-scale mid/upper troughing digging into the
    Northwest, it appears that forcing for ascent in the presence of
    weak destabilization will become sufficient for at least scattered
    thunderstorm development. It appears that thermodynamic profiles,
    in the presence of strong deep-layer shear, may become conducive to
    storms with at least some potential to produce severe hail across
    the higher terrain of central Montana.

    As convection propagates northeastward off the higher terrain of
    central and southern Montana, across a more strongly heated and
    deeply mixed boundary layer, downdrafts enhanced by evaporative
    cooling/melting and downward mixing of stronger flow from aloft
    probably will contribute to a few strong to severe surface gusts.
    The latest NAM continues to suggest potential for one or two
    clusters with consolidating downdrafts and outflow, though now
    generally across parts of central/eastern Montana and, perhaps, into
    western North Dakota by late Sunday evening.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE
    SOUTHEAST...AND OVER PARTS OF THE NORTHERN ROCKIES INTO WESTERN
    NORTH DAKOTA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered strong thunderstorms are expected across the Southeast on
    Sunday, posing a risk for severe hail, locally strong surface gusts,
    and a tornado or two. Additional thunderstorms may produce severe
    hail and strong to severe wind gusts across parts of the northern
    Rockies into western North Dakota.

    ...Southeast...

    A mid/upper cyclone over the Sabine River Valley will slowly meander
    eastward across the Lower MS Valley on Sunday. Moderate deep-layer
    shear on the eastern periphery of this feature will support
    organized cells and clusters across portions of the Southeast during
    the afternoon and evening. Cool temperatures aloft, closer to the
    upper cyclone center across MS/AL will support steepened midlevel
    lapse rates near 7 C/km amid elongated hodographs. This will foster
    a corridor of moderate instability (up to 1500 J/kg MLCAPE).
    Isolated to scattered cells, with perhaps a couple of supercells,
    are possible within this corridor from the western FL Panhandle into central/northern MS. Isolated strong gusts, hail and perhaps a
    tornado are possible.

    Further east, convection may be a bit messier with ongoing showers
    or thunderstorm possible across parts of FL/GA Sunday morning.
    Additional thunderstorms will develop within low-level confluence
    bands and along sea breeze boundaries from the FL Peninsula into
    coastal GA/SC. While midlevel lapse rates will be weaker compared to
    further east, if stronger heating can occur, instability will be
    greater. A mix of multicells and a few supercells will bring a risk
    for isolated damaging gusts, hail, and a tornado or two.

    ...Northern Rockies/High Plains...

    A deepening upper trough will develop over the Northwest on Sunday.
    As this occurs, a belt of enhanced mid/upper southwesterly flow will
    overspread the northern Great Basin into the northern Rockies/High
    Plains. Cooling aloft will support steep midlevel lapse rates amid
    elongated hodographs. As modest destabilization occurs over the
    higher terrain during the afternoon, scattered thunderstorms will
    develop. This initial activity may pose a risk for hail and strong
    gusts. Convection will develop eastward into the adjacent High
    Plains from central MT into western ND during the afternoon and
    evening into a well-mixed boundary layer. Inverted-v sub-cloud
    thermodynamic profiles suggest strong downward transport and
    evaporative processes will foster strong wind gust potential. This
    will be especially true if any updraft consolidation into clusters
    occurs.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PORTIONS
    OF THE TENNESSEE VALLEY AND THE SOUTHEAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered strong thunderstorms may impact parts of the Southeast on
    Monday. The strongest activity may pose a risk for a couple of
    tornadoes, locally strong surface gusts, and isolated hail.

    ...Southeast...

    The mid/upper low over the lower MS Valley will pivot northeast
    toward the TN Valley on Monday. A belt of enhanced
    south/southwesterly flow aloft will overspread portions of the
    Southeast. Vertically veering wind profiles, with 30-45 kt of flow
    between 700-500 mb, will support effective shear magnitude greater
    than 30 kt across much of the risk area. South/southeasterly
    low-level flow will maintain a moist airmass. Meanwhile, cool
    temperatures aloft will support modest midlevel lapse rates. Pockets
    of stronger daytime heating with aid in modest destabilization, with
    MLCAPE around 500-1000 J/kg forecast. Similar to the previous couple
    of days, bands of cells/clusters are expected through the day. This
    activity will pose an isolated risk for locally damaging gusts,
    marginal hail, and a tornado or two.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    The risk for organized severe thunderstorms remains limited across
    the U.S. Tuesday through Tuesday night.

    ...Synopsis...
    A gradual amplification of the upper-level trough currently over the
    Pacific Northwest is expected over the next 48 hours across the
    western CONUS. This will maintain a southwesterly flow regime across
    the central and northern Rockies, which will promote steady lee
    troughing and modest moisture return across the Plains through
    Tuesday night. The eastward advection of a stout EML will result in
    strong capping across the southern Plains where moisture return will
    be the greatest. A few isolated high-based thunderstorms are
    possible along the surface trough late afternoon/early evening, and
    may produce strong downdrafts given deep boundary-layer mixing, but
    the overall convective signal remains too limited to warrant risk probabilities. Additional elevated convection is possible early
    Wednesday morning across the Dakotas as a cold front begins to push
    east across the northern Plains.

    Across the East, the upper low currently over the lower MS River
    Valley is expected to gradually de-amplify and lift to the
    northeast. Rich low-level moisture already in place ahead of this
    feature, coupled with daytime heating and limited inhibition, will
    maintain scattered thunderstorm chances for most areas east of the
    MS River to the central Appalachians. Loosely organized convection
    is possible across eastern NC Tuesday afternoon in the vicinity of a
    weak surface low/trough where low-level winds may be sufficiently
    backed to elongate hodographs. However, disparity in recent guidance
    regarding the overall convective environment and convective coverage
    in the wake of widespread early-morning precipitation precludes
    highlights. Similarly, somewhat organized convection may materialize
    across parts of MS/western AL Tuesday evening at the eastern
    periphery of the EML where capping will be weaker. While hodographs
    will be favorable for organized convection, weak forcing for ascent
    should limit the probability for sustained, robust storms.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe storms are not forecast on Tuesday.

    ...Synopsis and Discussion...
    On Tuesday, an upper low will proceed northward across the TN and OH
    Valleys, beneath the larger-scale upper ridge extending from the
    Northeast into eastern Canada. As this occurs, winds aloft will
    generally weaken from FL into the Mid Atlantic, but cool
    temperatures aloft will maintain thunderstorm chances over much of
    the East. Severe chances will be limited by poor lapse rates aloft
    in most areas.

    To the west, a deep upper trough will move eastward across the Great
    Basin, with a intense midlevel speed max moving from southern CA
    toward the Four Corners area. Moderate southwest flow aloft will
    exist over the central and northern Rockies, with increasing
    west/northwest flow aloft from NM into TX north of a Mexican upper
    ridge. Beneath the upper trough, cold air aloft will favor daytime thunderstorms from the Sierra into the northern Rockies, and into
    the evening across the western Dakotas.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
    THE CENTRAL TO NORTHERN PLAINS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered strong to severe thunderstorms are possible mainly over
    parts of the Dakotas and Nebraska Wednesday afternoon and evening.
    A more isolated severe threat is anticipated across parts of the
    Southeast and Mid-Atlantic Wednesday afternoon.

    ...Synopsis...
    An upper trough evident in water-vapor imagery over the Pacific
    Northwest is forecast to pivot into the central and northern Plains
    over the next 48 hours. As this occurs, strong to severe
    thunderstorms are expected to develop ahead of the wave and within a
    narrow warm sector in place across parts of the central to northern
    Plains. Across the Southeast and Mid-Atlantic, a weakening
    upper-level low will continue to de-amplify as it meanders to the
    northeast. Residual 25-35 knot mid-level flow will likely contribute
    to some storm organization as convection develops within a moist and
    weakly capped environment.

    ...Central to Northern Plains...
    Continued deepening of a surface trough is anticipated through the
    next 48 hours across the northern Plains. This will maintain a
    southeasterly flow regime across the Plains with modest moisture
    return anticipated within a narrow plume from NE into the Dakotas by
    Wednesday afternoon. A Pacific cold front, evident in late-evening
    surface observations across the Intermountain West, is forecast to
    progress east and impinge on the narrow warm sector by late
    afternoon/early evening. Storm motions and deep-layer shear vectors
    largely parallel to the front will favor relatively quick upscale
    growth into clusters/linear segments. Although shear will initially
    be modest, the high-based nature of the storms should promote a
    strong/severe wind threat. With time, strengthening mid to
    upper-level flow will elongate hodographs and may support an
    increasing hail threat into the evening hours as convection develops
    southward along the front. Some guidance hints at a second round of
    convection late evening into the overnight hours across southeast SD
    into NE as the primary vorticity maximum ejects into the Plains and
    promotes additional thunderstorm development along the advancing
    cold front.

    ...Carolinas to Mid-Atlantic...
    A moist air mass will remain in place across the Southeast and
    Mid-Atlantic through the next 48 hours in the absence of any
    synoptic fronts or influential gradient winds. Rich moisture through
    the lowest 100-200 mb will maintain weak capping and support
    diurnally driven convection by late afternoon as surface
    temperatures warm into the mid 70s under broken cloud cover. Similar
    to previous days, which have produced isolated damaging winds, weak
    low-level winds under 25-35 knot mid-level flow will promote
    transient storm organization. While a similar
    thermodynamic/kinematic environment will be in place across much of
    the Southeast on Wednesday, latest CAM guidance suggests the best
    severe potential resides across portions of the Carolinas into the
    DelMarVa region where thunderstorm coverage should be greatest ahead
    of the mid-level vorticity maximum.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER PARTS OF THE DAKOTAS...NEBRASKA...AND WESTERN IOWA AND SOUTHWEST MINNESOTA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered strong to severe thunderstorms are possible mainly over
    parts of the Dakotas and Nebraska Wednesday afternoon and evening,
    and perhaps into far western Iowa and southwest Minnesota overnight.
    A few strong gusts may occur over parts of the Southeast and
    Mid-Atlantic Wednesday afternoon.

    ...Synopsis...
    A potent upper speed max will move from the Four Corners area into
    the central Plains late Wednesday, with the overall trough taking on
    a negative tilt from MT into NE late. During the daytime, southerly
    flow and cooling aloft will proceed eastward across the northern
    Plains, where a surface trough will also deepen. This will provide a
    focus for afternoon storms, with additional activity late in the day
    over the central High Plains in association with the ejecting upper
    wave.

    To the east, a weakening upper trough will continue lifting north
    across the OH Valley, Great Lakes and Mid Atlantic, with cool
    temperatures aloft aiding daytime destabilization for scattered
    thunderstorms.

    ...Northern Plains...
    A north-south line of convection is forecast to form within the
    surface trough across the central Dakotas by 00Z, with additional
    activity developing over western NE. Shear will be marginal early
    on, but cool temperatures aloft and 1500-2000 J/kg MUCAPE will favor
    hail and locally strong gusts. During the evening and overnight,
    the environment will change rapidly as the upper trough approaches.
    Additional cooling aloft as well as developing 850 mb warm front
    should support an MCS or two, with damaging wind and hail both
    spreading across central and northern NE, eastern SD, and finally
    into western IA and southwest MN. Capping should limit southward
    development, perhaps to I-80 or so.

    ...Mid Atlantic Region...
    Cool midlevel temperatures will remain from the OH Valley into the
    Mid Atlantic beneath the ejecting upper trough. Dewpoints in the 60s
    F along with daytime heating will lead to pockets of 1500 J/kg
    MLCAPE, with generally weak but veering winds with height. Scattered
    storms appear most likely over central NC and VA, and a few strong
    wind gusts cannot be ruled out.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS PARTS OF THE
    UPPER MISSISSIPPI RIVER VALLEY AND WESTERN GREAT LAKES...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered severe thunderstorms are expected across parts of the
    upper Mississippi River Valley and western Great Lakes region
    Thursday afternoon and evening. More isolated severe thunderstorms
    are expected through the lower Ohio River Valley, Ozarks Plateau,
    and parts of the Mid-Atlantic.

    ...Synopsis...
    The upper-level trough currently over the Intermountain
    West/northern Rockies is forecast to eject into the upper MS River
    Valley over the next 48 hours. As this occurs, a Pacific cold front
    will rapidly push east into the MS Valley and Midwest as an intense
    surface cyclone begins to occlude over the eastern Dakotas/western
    MN. Scattered thunderstorms are expected to develop along the front
    by early-afternoon with increasing coverage across the upper MS
    Valley through early evening. Increasingly sparse, but severe,
    thunderstorms are anticipated along the front across the Midwest
    into the lower OH Valley and Ozarks/Texarkana regions through the
    evening and overnight hours.

    ...Upper MS Valley and western Great Lakes...
    04 UTC surface observations show upper 50s to low 60s dewpoints
    already spreading northwest into the upper MS Valley as a surface
    low begins to organized across the northern Plains. Confidence
    remains high that dewpoints in the mid 60s should overspread much of
    the region by mid-day Thursday and will contribute to regional
    MLCAPE values upwards of 2000-2500 J/kg. Strong forcing for ascent
    along the approaching front and within the left-exit region of a
    50-60 knot mid-level jet will erode capping at the base of a stout
    EML and promote thunderstorm development by early afternoon across
    parts of central to southern MN. Elongated hodographs with
    cross-boundary mean winds will promote organized, initially discrete/semi-discrete cells with an attendant severe wind and hail (potentially as large as 2 inches) threat. Veering winds through the
    lowest 2 km will also support a tornado threat with early
    convection.

    With time, persistent strong forcing along the front should promote
    some degree of upscale growth/clustering, though supercells will
    remain likely on the southern fringe of the line where capping will
    remain stronger and favor more isolated convection. The potential
    for somewhat longer-lived supercells may be maximized across
    southeast WI into adjacent portions of IL, northern IN, and
    southwest lower MI. Forecast soundings depict ESRH values on the
    order of 200-300 m2/s2, suggesting a significant tornado threat
    could materialize. Confidence in the coverage of such cells remains
    limited, but trends will be monitored for the need for increased
    tornado risk probabilities.

    ...Midwest and Ohio Valley...
    Forecast guidance continues to show the best moisture return across
    parts of IL, IN, and northern KY by Thursday afternoon. Dewpoints in
    the upper 60s to low 70s under nearly 8 C/km mid-level lapse rates
    will support a very unstable air mass with MLCAPE values approaching
    4000 J/kg. Despite the very favorable buoyancy, capping at the base
    of the EML is expected to limit storm coverage across this region.
    Recent guidance has trended towards perhaps a slightly increased
    coverage of thunderstorms compared to previous runs, but the overall
    consensus among deterministic and CAM ensemble guidance is that
    storm coverage should be sparse. Nonetheless, effective bulk shear
    values on the order of 40-50 knots will promote supercells during
    the late afternoon/evening hours with all hazards possible,
    including the potential for significant hail/tornadoes.
    Consideration was given for an expansion of the Enhanced risk area,
    but limited confidence in convective coverage precluded such
    expansion.

    ...Texarkana to the Ozark Plateau...
    Weaker forcing along the front and strong capping will likely limit thunderstorm coverage from the Texarkana region into the Ozark
    Plateau during the afternoon/evening. Heading into the overnight
    hours, increasing low-level isentropic ascent over the frontal
    boundary will support thunderstorm development - especially across
    the Ozarks into the mid-MS Valley. Strong deep-layer shear will
    promote initial supercells, but storm propagation along the front
    will likely promote clustering with time. Nonetheless, a severe
    hail/wind threat will likely materialize within this corridor.

    ...Mid-Atlantic...
    A moist, weakly capped air mass is expected to remain in place
    across the Mid-Atlantic through Thursday afternoon. While lapse
    rates will be modest after several days of convective overturning,
    temperatures warming into the upper 70s/low 80s will promote
    sufficient buoyancy for thunderstorm development. Upper ridging
    moving into the region will likely limit thunderstorm coverage, but
    convection developing along the Blue Ridge Mountains will mature in
    an environment with increasing deep-layer shear. A few organized
    cells appear possible with an attendant severe hail/wind threat.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM
    EAST-CENTRAL MINNESOTA INTO MUCH OF WISCONSIN...NORTHEAST
    ILLINOIS...SOUTHWEST LOWER MICHIGAN...AND NORTHERN INDIANA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are expected across parts of the upper
    Mississippi River Valley and Great Lakes region Thursday afternoon
    and evening. The primary risk with this activity is large to very
    large hail, tornadoes (a couple may be strong), and scattered wind
    damage.

    More isolated severe thunderstorms are expected through the lower
    Ohio River Valley, Ozarks Plateau, and parts of the Mid-Atlantic.

    ...Synopsis...

    An upper cyclone centered over the Dakotas, and attendant
    negative-tilt shortwave trough will deepen and spread northeast
    across the Upper Midwest on Thursday. A belt of enhanced mid/upper southwesterly flow will overspread the region, with a secondary jet
    streak oriented from the southern Plains to the Ohio Valley.

    At the surface, low pressure is forecast over eastern SD during the
    morning. The deepening surface low will lift north/northeast into
    northern MN through much of the forecast period. As this occurs, a
    warm front arcing southeast from the low to the Ohio Valley will
    lift northward during the afternoon and into the evening. This will
    allow a moist warm sector to lift northward across the Upper MS
    Valley and Great Lakes vicinity. Extending south from the surface
    low, a dryline will be in place from the Mid-MO valley into eastern
    OK and central TX. This feature will develop east/northeast across MN/WI/IA/MO/IL through the evening.

    Severe thunderstorm activity is expected near the triple point, and
    along the warm front and dryline (where a capping inversion is able
    to be overcome).

    ...Upper Midwest/Great Lakes vicinity...

    Convection will likely be ongoing Thursday morning near the surface
    low and beneath the upper low. Cold temperatures aloft will support
    steepened midlevel lapse rates within modest boundary layer moisture
    across the eastern Dakotas. Hail will be possible with this
    activity. Supercell wind profiles are also expected into late
    morning, and additional low-topped convection may develop from late
    morning into early afternoon, posing a risk of hail, gusty winds and
    a tornado or two across the eastern Dakotas.

    By afternoon, mid-60s F dewpoints are expected within a somewhat
    narrow warm sector from central MN southeast into WI and northern
    IL. As large-scale ascent increases, thunderstorms are expected to
    develop in an arc from east-central MN into southeast WI on the nose
    of a 40-50 kt low-level jet and midlevel dry slot. Vertically
    veering winds will produce supercell wind profiles. Low-level
    hodographs will become enlarged, in part due to the increasing
    low-level jet, but also within the warm front zone. Additionally,
    steep midlevel lapse rates and MLCAPE greater than 2500 J/kg are
    possible. This should support robust updrafts and rapidly increasing
    storm intensity once initiation occurs. Large to very large hail (up
    to 3 inch diameter) and tornadoes (a couple may be strong) appear
    possible within the moisture-rich, favorably sheared warm sector.
    Given strong 850-700 mb flow and steepening low-level lapse rates
    where strong heating occurs, severe gust potential is also expected.
    Current thinking is that given the orthogonal nature of low-level
    flow to the surface boundaries, supercell storm mode may be favored,
    with perhaps a trend toward bowing segment during the evening. A
    gust to 80 mph cannot be ruled out, but given uncertainty in storm
    mode transitioning to or favoring linear segments have held off on
    adding a sig-wind delineation.

    The bands of severe storms should develop northeast with time into
    the evening, with a gradual weakening trend expected across Upper
    and Lower MI.

    ...Northern IL/IN into OH/PA vicinity...

    Storm coverage is more uncertain with southward extent due to
    increasing capping in the 850-700 mb layer, and weaker large-scale
    ascent. Nevertheless, isolated to widely scattered storms are
    expected to develop during the afternoon in a strongly unstable and
    moderately sheared environment. Supercells producing large hail, a
    couple of tornadoes and damaging gusts will be possible into the
    evening hours across IL/IN. Additional activity is expected to
    develop in the low-level warm advection regime during the
    evening/overnight hours across portions of OH/western PA. This
    activity may remain elevated, but would still pose a risk for hail,
    or perhaps isolated gusty winds if clustering occurs.

    ...Ozarks to Mid-South/Ohio Valley...
    Further south from southeast MO/southern IL into KY, modest height
    falls are forecast during the evening/overnight hours. This may be
    sufficient to either overcome capping, or to allow elevated
    convection to develop. Severe storms capable of damaging gusts,large
    hail and a tornado or two appear possible, though this risk is a bit
    more uncertain/conditional and coverage may be low.

    ...Mid-Atlantic...

    A moist, weakly capped air mass is expected to remain in place
    across the Mid-Atlantic through Thursday afternoon. While lapse
    rates will be modest after several days of convective overturning,
    temperatures warming into the upper 70s/low 80s will promote
    sufficient buoyancy for thunderstorm development. Upper ridging
    moving into the region will likely limit thunderstorm coverage, but
    convection developing along the Blue Ridge Mountains will mature in
    an environment with increasing deep-layer shear. A few organized
    cells appear possible with an attendant severe hail/wind threat.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FRIDAY
    AFTERNOON INTO FRIDAY NIGHT ACROSS PARTS OF NORTHEASTERN
    ARKANSAS...EAST CENTRAL AND SOUTHEASTERN MISSOURI...SOUTHERN ILLINOIS...SOUTHERN INDIANA...SOUTHWESTERN OHIO...MUCH OF WESTERN
    AND CENTRAL KY...WESTERN AND MIDDLE TENNESSEE...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms appear likely to develop across parts of the
    middle Mississippi through lower and middle Ohio Valleys Friday
    afternoon into Friday night. During the late afternoon into
    evening, this may include a few intense supercells posing a risk for
    large hail and tornadoes. During the evening into the overnight
    hours, this probably will include an upscale growing and organizing
    cluster posing a risk for strong, damaging winds and perhaps a
    continuing risk for tornadoes.

    ...Discussion...
    Downstream of a prominent mid-level high over the southern mid- to
    subtropical latitudes of the eastern Pacific, split flow will
    persist across much of North America through this period. Within
    this regime an initially deep and occluded surface cyclone, centered
    over northern Minnesota at the outset of the period, is forecast to
    weaken Friday through Friday night, as it migrates into the Upper
    Great Lakes region in response to a short wave perturbation pivoting
    around the southern periphery of the mid-level circulation center.
    It appears that this perturbation will come in phase with another
    short wave perturbation forecast to accelerate east-northeast of the
    central Great Plains through much of the Ohio Valley by early
    Saturday. Another vigorous short wave trough digging around the
    northeastern periphery of the Pacific ridge may reach the northern
    California coast by the end of the period, preceded by at least one
    more modest perturbation migrating northeastward across the northern
    Baja vicinity.

    In lower levels, associated with the occluding cyclone, a
    weak/weakening Pacific cold front/dry line appears likely to stall
    across the lower Great Lakes through Ohio River vicinity, and across
    the Ark-La-Tex into Rio Grande River by 12Z Friday. This may be
    trailed by another weak front across the Upper Midwest through the
    central Great Plains and Texas South Plains, which is forecast to be
    overtaken by the primary cold front surging southeastward from the
    upper Mississippi Valley/northern Great Plains. By late Friday
    night, this cold front may reach the lower Ohio Valley and central
    Great Plains.

    Preceding the consolidating fronts, low-level moisture return and
    moderate to strong destabilization is forecast across the middle
    Mississippi and lower Ohio Valleys on strengthening south to
    southwesterly flow. The potential northern extent of the moisture
    return remains unclear, based on model output, and this could be
    impacted by outflow associated with possible early period convective development across the lower Ohio Valley into portions of the
    Allegheny and Cumberland Plateaus. Depending on how these
    uncertainties play out, it might not be out of the question that a
    more substantive outbreak of severe thunderstorms could evolve than
    currently depicted. It is possible areal coverage and probabilities
    could be increased further in later outlooks for this period.

    ...Lower Great Lakes into northern Mid Atlantic...
    Uncertainty lingers concerning the potential for severe weather.
    However, the intersection of the initial weak surface cold
    front/dryline and warm front could still be providing a focus for
    strong to severe thunderstorm development at the outset of the
    period across the lower Great Lakes/upper Ohio Valley vicinity.
    Aided by continuing inflow from better potential instability across
    the Ohio Valley, in the presence of moderate to strong vertical
    shear, it is possible that this could continue into the day Friday,
    perhaps evolving into an organizing cluster which should tend to
    propagate southeastward and perhaps pose potential for strong to
    severe surface gusts.

    ...Middle Mississippi into Ohio Valley...
    There remains at least some signal that a modest short wave
    perturbation, within the belt of westerlies emanating from the
    subtropical eastern Pacific, may be contributing to vigorous
    convective development at the outset of the period, or shortly
    thereafter, across parts of the lower Ohio Valley. If this occurs,
    it might not be out of the question that the boundary-layer
    downstream, into the western slopes of the Appalachians, might
    destabilize in time to support an upscale growing cluster with
    potential to produce to produce severe wind and hail.

    The impact of this possible early period convection might be the
    primary contributor to at least some continuing model disparity
    concerning upstream boundary-layer moistening and destabilization
    (particularly the northern extent) across the middle Mississippi
    into lower Ohio Valleys. However, it still appears most probable
    that destabilization, as far north as the I-44 corridor of
    central/eastern Missouri, will support the initiation of storms by
    early afternoon, in response to forcing for ascent associated with
    the mid-level perturbation emerging from the central Great Plains.

    This is generally forecast to shift east-northeastward into the
    lower Ohio Valley through late Friday afternoon, in an environment
    that may support at least a window of opportunity for
    sustained/long-lived supercells with potential to produce large to
    giant hail and a couple of strong tornadoes. Into Friday evening
    and overnight, there remains a considerable signal in model output
    that large-scale forcing for ascent will support a notable upscale
    growing and organizing cluster, in the presence of seasonably strong
    (and increasingly convectively augmented) westerly deep-layer mean
    flow. This may support widespread severe surface gusts,
    occasionally in excess of 65 kt, across a swath from southern
    Indiana/western Kentucky and northern Tennessee toward the Allegheny
    and Cumberland Plateaus.

    ...THERE IS A MODERATE RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
    SOUTHEAST MISSOURI...SOUTHERN ILLINOIS/INDIANA...AND CENTRAL AND
    WESTERN KENTUCKY...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A regional outbreak of severe thunderstorms is likely across parts
    of the middle Mississippi and Ohio Valleys Friday afternoon into
    Friday night. This may include a few intense supercells posing a
    risk for large hail and tornadoes. During the evening into the
    overnight hours, this will include an upscale growing and organizing
    bowing line of storms posing a risk for strong, damaging winds and a
    continuing risk for tornadoes.

    ...A regional outbreak of severe storms is expected on Friday across
    portions of the Mid-South to the Ohio Valley...

    ...Synopsis...

    An upper cyclone over the Upper Midwest and attendant shortwave
    trough will develop east/northeast across much of the Midwest and TN
    Valley. A swath of strong mid/upper southwesterly flow will
    accompany this system. Forecast guidance shows a 70-90 kt 500 mb jet
    spreading across the Mid-MS to OH Valley, while 850-700 mb increases
    to 40-60 kt by midday. This will result in supercell wind profiles,
    support widespread organized convection. Favorable deep-layer shear
    will extend downstream into the central Appalachians and
    Mid-Atlantic vicinity as well.

    At the surface, low pressure will shift east from northern MN into
    the Upper Great Lakes. A warm from southern MO into the OH Valley
    Friday morning is forecast to lift northward through the afternoon,
    allowing rich boundary layer moisture (mid/upper 60s F dewpoints) to
    overspread much of the Lower OH Valley, with a large warm sector in
    place across a broad region from east TX to the Great Lakes and
    eastward toward the Mid-Atlantic coast. Corridors of moderate to
    strong destabilization during the day and into the nighttime hours
    will support several areas of severe storms from east Texas into
    much of the Midwest and the Mid-Atlantic, some of which could be
    significant.

    ...Mid-MS Valley into the OH/TN Valley Vicinity...

    Forecast guidance depicts potential for remnant convection from Day
    1/Thu ongoing across KY or TN Friday morning. Current expectation is
    that this activity will dissipate or weaken as it shifts east toward
    the central Appalachians. Strong warm advection should allow for
    rapid airmass recovery in the way of any morning thunderstorm
    activity.

    By midday, a very moist (mid 60s to low 70s F dewpoints) airmass
    will be in place beneath steep midlevel lapse rates, fostering
    MLCAPE around 2500-3500 J/kg from southeast MO northward to around
    the I-70 corridor and east toward the IN/KY. One or more clusters of
    convection is expected to develop by early afternoon within the
    strong warm advection regime and as large-scale ascent increases
    with the approach of the upper trough and an eastward-advancing cold
    front extending from eastern IA/western MO into central OK/TX around
    midday.

    Supercell wind profiles with enlarged low-level hodographs becoming
    elongated above 2-3 km within a volatile thermodynamic environment
    suggests convection will rapidly intensify. Any convection that
    remains discrete will pose a risk for very large hail (up to 3.5
    inches), tornadoes (a few may be strong), and damaging gusts. With
    time, consolidation of thunderstorm clusters is expected and an
    organized bow is forecast to move across the OH/TN Valley region.
    Intense, damaging gusts greater than 70 kt will be possible once
    this occurs.

    Additional convection is expected to develop during the evening
    ahead of the advancing cold front from northern AR into western
    TN/KY. If this activity can remain discrete, supercells will pose an all-hazards severe risk. Eventually, this activity should become
    linear, but will still have an attendant wind/tornado risk, with a
    gradual weakening trend during the overnight hours expected across
    MS/AL/GA.

    ...Central Appalachians to Mid-Atlantic...

    Thunderstorms may be ongoing Friday morning across parts of PA and
    spread east/southeast through early afternoon as a lead upper
    shortwave impulse moves across the Northeast. Moistening and heating
    ahead of this activity will support moderate to strong
    destabilization, especially from the Chesapeake Bay vicinity
    southward across the VA/NC Piedmont. The initial round of
    thunderstorms may pose a risk for locally strong gusts and hail
    before moving offshore the NJ/DE/MD coast during the early
    afternoon.

    During the evening/overnight hours, a mature bowing MCS is expected
    to move over the WV/VA/NC mountains and spread east across the
    region, posing a risk for swaths of strong to damaging wind gusts.
    Forecast guidance varies in timing and exact evolution of this
    system across the region, but portions of the area may need higher probabilities in subsequent outlooks.

    ...WI/MI...

    Thunderstorms are expected to develop ahead of the surface low and
    cold front during the afternoon and evening. Cold temperatures aloft
    will support steep midlevel lapse rates and weak to moderate
    instability despite more modest boundary layer moisture. Favorable
    shear will support organized convection capable of isolated damaging
    gusts and hail.

    ...ArkLaTex vicinity...

    A more conditional risk of significant severe thunderstorms will
    exist across northeast TX into southern AR/northwest LA. A very
    moist and strongly unstable airmass will be in place, and forecast
    guidance suggests capping should erode along/ahead of the surface
    dryline. Low-level convergence along the surface boundary is not
    expected to be strong, and large-scale ascent will be nebulous, with
    neutral height tendencies expected. Nevertheless, at least a few
    storms are expected to develop during/just after peak heating.
    Supercell wind profiles, with long/straight hodographs are apparent
    in forecast soundings. Furthermore, thermodynamic profiles will be
    very favorable for large hail, while steepening low-level lapse
    rates will support strong outflow winds. Isolated significant hail
    (to 2.5 inches) is possible in addition to sporadic damaging gusts.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PORTIONS OF
    THE SOUTHERN PLAINS INTO ARKANSAS AND OVER PARTS OF THE MID-ATLANTIC
    AND NORTHEAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are possible Saturday across parts of the Mid
    Atlantic and Northeast, and across parts of the southeastern Great
    Plains to Lower Mississippi Valley.

    ...Synopsis...
    A mid-level low centered across the western Great Lakes Saturday
    morning will shift east through the day and move over the Northeast
    by 12Z Sunday. Moderate to strong mid-level flow will expand south
    from the southern Great Lakes to the Southeast. Farther west, a
    weakening mid-level shortwave trough will advance from northern
    Mexico into the Southern Plains. A mid-level jet streak associated
    with this mid-level shortwave trough will overspread portions of central/northern Texas and into Oklahoma on Saturday. A strong
    mid-level jet streak will move into the Intermountain West on
    Saturday and amplify a trough across the western CONUS.

    ...Mid Atlantic to the Northeast...
    Thunderstorms will likely be ongoing at the beginning of the period
    across portions of the Upper Ohio Valley and eastern Great Lakes.
    This convection and cloudcover associated with it, casts
    considerable uncertainty on destabilization, particularly across the
    Northeast. However, mid-60s dewpoints are anticipated ahead of the
    cold front as it moves eastward through the day. This moisture,
    combined with cooling temperatures aloft. Could be sufficient for
    damaging wind gusts and perhaps isolated large hail.

    The most favorable zone for severe storms will likely exist across
    eastern North Carolina into southeast Virginia. This zone is far
    enough south to likely remain mostly cloud free which will promote
    surface heating and destabilization. In addition, the stronger
    mid-level flow is forecast to overspread this region which would
    support storm organization and the potential for supercells. Given
    the greater instability and shear with potential for supercell storm
    mode, large hail and damaging wind gusts appear most likely within
    this region.

    ...Southeast...
    The cold front will likely become stalled across the Southeast on
    Saturday. South of this front, moderate to strong instability is
    forecast with 50 knots of flow parallel to the boundary. Forcing
    will remain weak along this boundary with minimal surface
    convergence and mostly neutral heights aloft. Therefore, storms are
    possible along this boundary, and could be supercellular if they
    form, but coverage should be isolated if any storms form at all
    given the weak forcing.

    ...Central Texas into Oklahoma, Arkansas, and northern Louisiana...
    Moderate to strong instability is forecast across central/northern
    Texas Saturday afternoon as temperatures warm into the low 80s with
    dewpoints in the low 70s and 500mb temperatures around -10C. Weak
    large scale forcing will overspread the dryline during the afternoon
    as a right entrance region of the upper-level jet overspreads
    northern Texas. Any subtle large scale forcing will likely be
    sufficient for rapid storm development along the uncapped
    dryline/triple point in north-central Texas by mid-afternoon. Large
    hail (some 2+ inch) will be the initial threat from supercells along
    the dryline. However, CAM signals suggest a combination of left and right-moving supercells congealing into a cluster/MCS rather quickly
    with an increasing severe wind threat. These mode concerns limit
    higher hail/tornado probabilities at this time, despite a very
    unstable and strongly sheared environment across the region.

    Additional supercells may develop Saturday evening and into early
    Sunday morning across eastern Oklahoma into the Ozarks as isentropic
    ascent increases with the strengthening low-level jet. These storms
    will pose a primary threat of large hail.

    ...Utah into Southeast Idaho and Southwest Wyoming...
    Rapidly cooling temperatures aloft across the Great Basin on
    Saturday will result in weak destabilization and numerous storms. A
    deep, well-mixed boundary layer will support the potential for
    severe wind gusts from the stronger cores.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PORTIONS OF
    THE SOUTHERN PLAINS AND THE NORTHEAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms producing large to very large hail, damaging
    gusts and a couple of tornadoes are possible across the southern
    Plains on Saturday. Additional severe storms are possible across the
    Northeast.

    ...Synopsis...

    An upper trough extending from the Great Lakes toward the TN
    Valley/southern Appalachians will develop east through the period,
    moving mostly offshore the Atlantic coast Saturday night/early
    Sunday morning. Further west, an upper trough will dig across the
    western U.S., while an upper ridge builds over the Plains. A
    shortwave impulse over the southern Rockies is expected to move
    through the upper ridge over the southern Plains. Enhanced
    west/southwesterly flow associated with the southern Plains impulse
    and the larger-scale trough over the East will persist through much
    of the period.

    At the surface, a cold front will move across much of the central
    Appalachians and Mid-Atlantic/Northeast. The southwest extent of
    this boundary will lift northward across OK and parts of the Ozark
    Plateau. Meanwhile, a dryline will extend southward across portions
    of western OK/TX.

    ... Southern Plains to the Lower MS Valley Vicinity...

    Rich boundary layer moisture will be in place across the warm sector
    east of the dryline and south of the northward retreating warm front
    from OK/TX into AR/LA. More modest dewpoints in the low 60s F should
    spread into southern KS/MO during the evening/overnight hours as
    well. While capping will initially be in place, continued warm
    advection and increasing ascent from the midlevel shortwave impulse
    ejecting from the southern Rockies should overcome the EML across
    north TX into southern OK. Supercell wind profiles with
    elongated/straight hodographs and very steep midlevel lapse rates
    suggest splitting supercells producing large to very large hail will
    be possible. With time, clustering may result in an eastward
    progressing MCS moving across the ArkLaTex vicinity during the
    evening.

    Overnight, additional convection may develop within the warm frontal
    zone from northwest OK/southern KS into southwest MO/northwest AR.
    This activity may remain elevated to the north of the warm front.
    Nevertheless, vertical shear and thermodynamic conditions will be
    favorable for large hail. Some upscale growth may occur with
    clusters developing eastward within the baroclinic zone. If this
    occurs, some increase in strong wind potential could also occur.

    More isolated/conditional risk will extend southwestward along the
    surface dryline across west-central/southwest TX toward the Middle
    Rio Grande Valley/Del Rio vicinity. Any storms that develop in this
    area, or cross the border will pose a risk for large hail and strong
    gusts.

    ...Northeast...

    Modest boundary layer moisture is expected across the region.
    Cooling aloft will aid in 500-1000 J/kg MLCAPE ahead of the surface
    cold front. Elongated/straight hodographs and greater than 30 kt
    effective shear suggest scattered convection may produce hail up to
    1.5 inch diameter in the strongest cells. Steepened low-level lapse
    rates also may support sporadic strong gusts, especially if any clustering/linear segments develop.

    ...Carolinas into the Mid-Atlantic...

    Outflow from overnight storms is expected to move across the eastern
    Carolinas and the Chesapeake Bay vicinity during the morning. Some
    airmass recovery is possible ahead of the eastward advancing cold
    front expected to move through later in the afternoon/evening.
    However, subsidence and drying aloft may inhibit redevelopment.
    Stronger midlevel flow is also expected to weaken through the day.
    Overall, severe potential appear low across the Chesapeake with a
    more uncertain/conditional risk across the eastern Carolinas. If
    storms can develop over eastern NC/SC, some risk for gusty winds and
    hail is possible.

    ...Deep South...

    Large scale ascent will remain nebulous across the region. However,
    the composite cold front and outflow from earlier convection will
    sag southward through peak heating. A very moist airmass will be in
    place, but midlevel lapse rates will be modest, resulting in MLCAPE
    around 1000-1500 J/kg. Effective shear magnitudes greater than 35 kt
    will support organized convection capable of hail and strong gusts
    should any storms develop and become sustained.

    ...Northern UT into southwest WY...

    As the western upper trough digs south/southeast across the Great
    Basin, rapid cooling aloft will result in weak destabilization and
    numerous storms. A deep, well-mixed boundary layer will support the
    potential for severe wind gusts from the stronger cores.

    Valid 181200Z - 191200Z

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS NORTHERN
    OKLAHOMA AND MUCH OF CENTRAL AND EASTERN KANSAS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms capable of all severe hazards are expected on
    Sunday across portions of the central and southern Plains.

    ...Synopsis...
    A mid-level shortwave trough will move from the Southwest into the
    Central Plains on Sunday as the broader trough develops across the Intermountain West. By 00Z Monday, a ~992mb lee cyclone will develop
    along the KS/CO border. A warm front will extend from this surface
    low into northern Kansas/southern Nebraska by Sunday evening and
    will remain mostly stationary across the Southeast. A dryline will
    extend from central Kansas to the southern Plains.

    ...Kansas and northern Oklahoma...
    A very moist airmass will be in place east of the dryline on Sunday
    with low 70s dewpoints forecast across much of Texas, Oklahoma, and
    southern Kansas ahead of the surface boundary. As temperatures warm,
    strong to very strong instability is forecast to develop. As the
    mid-level shortwave trough emerges across the Plains, synoptic-scale
    ascent will combine with the increasing instability to decrease
    inhibition across much of the dryline. Forecast guidance shows
    limited convergence along the dryline in Oklahoma and Texas during
    the day Sunday with the better convergence focused across Kansas.
    Therefore, confidence is higher for storms across central and
    southern Kansas and perhaps into northern Oklahoma.

    Any storms which develop will be supercellular with a threat for
    very large hail and tornadoes, particularly by later in the evening
    as the low-level jet strengthens. While confidence is higher in
    storms across the Enhanced risk area, storm evolution remains
    unclear. 00Z CAM guidance has wide variations in the northeastward
    progression of the surface warm front which will significantly
    impact storm development on Sunday. A more discrete storm mode would
    likely pose a greater very large hail and tornado threat, while more
    widespread storm development would likely favor development into a
    MCS which could pose a greater severe wind threat across eastern
    Kansas and into Missouri.

    Despite the uncertainties, the Enhanced (Level 3 of 5) risk seems
    appropriately placed where severe storms are most likely. The 10%
    tornado probabilities do not extend to the northern extent of the
    Enhanced due to the aforementioned uncertainties in the warm frontal
    position. However, elevated hail will remain a threat north of the
    warm front.

    ...Oklahoma/Texas...
    A dryline will be in place across western Oklahoma and north Texas
    for much of the day Sunday. Convergence will be mostly weak along
    the Oklahoma dryline for much of the day with better convergence
    farther south in Texas, farther from the better upper-level forcing.
    However, by the evening, convergence will increase somewhat which
    could result in isolated supercell development as the low-level jet
    intensifies during the evening. The environment across Oklahoma and
    North Texas will be very volatile with a conditional threat for
    intense supercells capable of very large hail and strong tornadoes.

    ...Northeast CO/Southwest Nebraska Vicinity...
    By Sunday afternoon, low to mid 60s dewpoints will advect westward
    around the surface low into northwest Kansas, northeast Colorado,
    and southwest Nebraska. Moderate to strong instability is forecast
    ahead of the dryline which will aid in supercell development by the
    afternoon. A narrow corridor of instability will be the primary
    limiting factor to the tornado threat in an otherwise very favorable
    STP environment. It appears supercells will likely be north of the
    boundary before maturing which will support a primary threat for
    large hail. However, if a storm can rapidly mature as it develops
    off the dryline, it could pose a tornado threat given the favorable
    low-level shear across the region.

    ...Mid Mississippi Valley to the Southeast...
    Isolated thunderstorms are possible along a stalled frontal zone
    that will extend from the Mid-Mississippi Valley to the Southeast.
    Moderate to strong instability will be in place within a moderately
    sheared environment. Forcing will be weak along the front with
    neutral to perhaps slightly rising heights aloft. However, forecast
    soundings show minimal inhibition and therefore, isolated
    development is possible. A greater severe threat could materialize
    from a remnant MCV/MCS which will likely evolve from Day 1/Saturday
    convection across north Texas. If this maintains along the frontal
    zone into the late morning on Sunday, it could provide a focused
    region of greater severe weather threat Sunday afternoon across
    AL/GA.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PORTIONS OF
    CENTRAL KS INTO NORTHERN OK...AND FAR NORTHEAST COLORADO INTO
    WESTERN NEBRASKA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms capable of all severe hazards are still
    expected on Sunday across portions of the central and southern
    Plains, as well as parts of the central High Plains.

    ...Synopsis...
    A negatively tilted mid-level trough will traverse the central
    Rockies and eject into the Plains states, encouraging rapid surface
    low development along the CO/KS tomorrow (Sunday). Ahead of the
    surface low and sharpening dryline, rapid north-northwestward
    advection of relatively rich low-level moisture beneath a pronounced
    EML will result in strong buoyancy across much of the central and
    southern Plains. Furthermore, a low-level jet will overspread the
    Plains states, beneath strong southwesterly 500 mb flow associated
    with the ejecting upper trough, resulting in strong vertical speed
    and directional shear coinciding with the aforementioned unstable
    environment. Multiple clusters of strong to severe thunderstorms are
    expected to develop near, and to the north of the surface low, ahead
    of the dryline, and along an effective warm front across the central
    Plains, with all convective hazards possible. Lastly, isolated
    strong storms are possible along a diffuse baroclinic boundary
    across the Southeast tomorrow afternoon.

    ...Portions of the central High Plains...
    A narrow corridor of mid to upper 50s F surface dewpoints may advect
    to the north of the surface low by afternoon, ahead of an arching
    dryline, where scattered thunderstorms should develop. 8-9 C/km
    mid-level lapse rates will overspread this moisture ahead of the
    dryline, supporting well over 1000 J/kg MLCAPE amid 50+ kts of
    effective bulk shear. Forecast soundings show very long hodographs,
    with a subset of these forecast soundings also depicting
    enlarged/curved low-level hodographs. Supercells are expected to be
    the dominant mode, with large hail the main threat. At least a few
    instances of 2+ inch diameter hail and severe gusts may also occur,
    along with a few tornadoes. If a mature, discrete supercell can
    materialize and achieve substantial residence time within the narrow
    warm sector, the storm may become cyclic tornadic in nature.
    However, confidence in this scenario is not overly high at this
    time.

    ...Kansas into central Texas...
    At least scattered thunderstorms are expected to develop along the
    leading edge of greater moisture return along the KS/OK border by
    early afternoon. With strong shear/instability already in place,
    supercells are likely, accompanied by a large hail threat. Questions
    remain how far north the better moisture will return into KS given
    possible stabilizing impacts of these storms. However, by mid to
    late afternoon, some eastward advancement of the dryline should
    encourage a second round of supercell development along the KS/OK
    border. Ahead of these storms and south of the effective warm front,
    surface dewpoints should exceed 70 F in spots, beneath 8 C/km
    mid-level lapse rates, boosting MLCAPE to over 3000 J/kg on a
    widespread basis. Substantial veering/strengthening of the vertical
    wind fields with height will also result in enlarged, curved
    hodographs and over 300 m2/s2 effective SRH sometime between 21-00Z.
    Any supercells that can mature and sustain themselves in this
    environment will have the potential to produce very large hail
    (perhaps exceeding 3 inches in diameter) and tornadoes (some
    possibly EF2+).

    Storm coverage is expected to be less across central OK into central
    TX owing to less low-level convergence along the dryline. However,
    3000+ J/kg MLCAPE amid 300+ m2/s2 effective SRH will support
    supercells capable of producing very large hail and tornadoes should
    storms develop farther south along the dryline.

    ...Portions of the Southeast...
    Scattered strong storms should develop along the baroclinic boundary
    across the Southeast by afternoon peak heating tomorrow (Sunday).
    Rich low-level moisture beneath modest mid-level lapse rates will
    support over 2000 J/kg SBCAPE, with strong flow aloft also
    contributing to elongated, mainly straight hodographs. Stronger
    storms that develop in this environment will be capable of large
    hail and gusty winds.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PORTIONS OF
    THE CENTRAL/SOUTHERN PLAINS INTO THE OZARKS....

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe storms with all severe weather hazards are expected from the central/southern Plains into the Ozarks on Monday.

    ...Synopsis...
    A mid-level trough will shift from the Intermountain West into the
    central Plains on Monday. A moderate to strong mid-level jet streak
    will emerge along the southern periphery of this trough from the
    Southwest into the central/southern Plains. A surface low in
    Nebraska will gradually consolidate southward and deepen as the
    mid-level jet emerges across the southern Plains. A sharp dryline
    will be present from central Kansas to central Oklahoma and
    north-central Texas. A warm front will extend from near Omaha to the
    lower Ohio Valley and remain mostly stationary during the day.

    ...Central/Southern Plains into the Ozarks...
    Thunderstorms will likely be ongoing along the warm front in the
    northern Missouri border vicinity on Monday morning. Otherwise, a
    mostly convection-free warm sector is expected to the south. Very
    strong instability will develop along and east of the dryline with
    convective temperatures likely reached by early afternoon. As large
    scale ascent ahead of the approaching trough overspreads the
    dryline, expect scattered supercells to develop along the dryline in
    Kansas and Oklahoma. Very large to potentially giant hail will be
    possible with these supercells initially. In addition, hodographs
    will support tornadoes. The tornado threat will increase through the
    afternoon and peak during the evening as the low-level jet
    strengthens and low-level shear increases. However, by this time,
    storm mode could be messy which is one factor precluding higher
    probabilities at this time.

    00Z CAM guidance shows a range of solutions including:

    1. Earlier storms as the primary threat.

    2. Delayed dryline initiation with a potential tornado outbreak type
    solution across central/eastern Kansas and central/eastern Oklahoma.

    3. A combination of both solutions.

    The uncertainty in guidance at this time precludes a moderate risk,
    but higher probabilities may be needed when a more favored solution
    becomes more clear, especially if one of the higher-end scenarios
    appears likely.

    OF THE CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN PLAINS INTO THE OZARKS...

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM MIDDLE
    TENNESSEE INTO SOUTH CAROLINA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe storms with all severe weather hazards are expected from the central/southern Plains into the Ozarks on Monday.

    ...Central/Southern Plains to the Mid-Mississippi Valley...

    An uncertain and potentially messy convective scenario is apparent
    across the region on Monday. An upper trough over the southern
    Rockies will become negatively tilted as it ejects across the
    central/southern Plains toward the Mid-MS Valley. As this occurs, a southwesterly 500 mb jet streak around 70-80 kt will overspread the
    region. By early evening and into the overnight hours, an 850-700 mb
    low-level jet will increase to around 45-55 kt.

    At the surface, a somewhat elongated low will extend from central NE
    into western KS/OK, with some forecast guidance suggesting a
    secondary low pressure center developing over northwest OK during
    late afternoon/early evening. At midday, a dryline will extend
    southward from central KS into western OK and central TX while a
    cold front develop east/southwest across NE and western KS. A warm
    front will extend from southeast NE into northern MO and then
    eastward into the Lower OH Valley. The warm front is not forecast to
    move much through the forecast period. Between these surface
    boundaries, a moisture-rich boundary layer will be in place with mid
    60s to low 70s F dewpoints across a broad zone from eastern KS/OK/TX
    toward the Mid-South. A plume of steep midlevel lapse rates atop
    this moist boundary layer will result in strong destabilization by
    early afternoon, with MLCAPE around 2500-3500 J/kg common.
    Vertically veering, supercell wind profiles, becoming
    elongated/straight above 2-3 km will be present. Low-level
    hodographs initially will be somewhat small, but should become
    enlarged as the low-level jet increases toward evening.

    Capping is expected to erode by early to mid afternoon across the
    region. Convective evolution is uncertain. Most guidance develops
    quite a bit of thunderstorms rather early in the afternoon across
    portions of the Ozarks where 850 mb warm air advection will be
    maximized. While initial supercells could be possible, cell
    interactions and consolidation could result in some upscale
    development. Regardless, this initial activity will pose an
    all-hazards severe risk.

    Additional supercells are likely to develop along the surface
    dryline from central/eastern KS/OK where strong heating along/to the
    west of the boundary is expected. Convergence along the dryline is
    not forecast to be overly strong as low-level flow appears to remain
    more southerly rather than southeasterly given a lack of stronger
    surface cyclogenesis. This could result in a messy storm mode due to
    storm interactions. Nevertheless, strong instability, very steep
    lapse rates, and a favorably sheared environment will support
    significant severe storms pose an all-hazards severe risk. With
    time and an increasing low-level jet, one or more linear bands may
    develop across eastern KS/OK and move into MO/AR during the
    nighttime hours. A corridor of greater risk potential is possible
    somewhere across central/eastern OK/KS but uncertainty remains too
    great at this time for a categorical outlook upgrade.

    ...Middle TN into parts of SC...

    An upper ridge is forecast to be centered over the OH/TN Valley and
    Gulf Coast region, with modest northwesterly flow aloft spreading
    over the Southeast. Most guidance depicts a remnant MCV migrating
    through the northwest flow amid a corridor of strong instability.
    Deep-layer flow will be unidirectional, but speed shear will produce long/straight hodographs, with effective shear magnitudes around
    25-35 kt. Modest midlevel lapse rates nearing 7 C/km, and strong
    surface heating leading to steep low-level lapse rates. Isolated
    large hail and strong/damaging gusts will be possible as convection
    develops southeast across the region through the afternoon.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PORTIONS OF
    THE MID-MISSISSIPPI VALLEY...OHIO VALLEY...AND TENNESSEE VALLEY...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are likely across portions of the Ohio Valley, Mid-Mississippi Valley, and Tennessee Valley on Tuesday.

    ...Synopsis...
    A mid-level trough will advance east to the TN/OH Valley by Tuesday afternoon/evening. At the surface, a surface low will move from
    northern MO/southern Iowa to the eastern Great Lakes by 12Z
    Wednesday. A cold front will extend south from this surface low and
    move east from the central/southern Plains at the beginning of the
    period to the eastern Great Lakes to Louisiana Coast by 12Z
    Wednesday.

    ...Mid-Mississippi Valley into the Ohio/Tennessee Valleys...
    Remnant Day 1 convection will likely be ongoing at the beginning of
    the period from the Midwest into the Ohio Valley with the potential
    for some ongoing strong to severe storms. One or more outflow
    boundaries will likely be located across the Ohio River region at
    the beginning of the period. 00Z guidance has come into better
    agreement that a mid-level dry slot associated with the mid-level
    jet streak will move quickly across the warm sector during the
    morning. This will allow heating and recovery across most of the
    warm sector, particularly south of the Ohio River. This was the
    primary factor which supported expansion of the Enhanced Risk into
    southern Kentucky.

    Moderate to potentially strong instability is forecast to develop
    across the warm sector by the early afternoon. Thunderstorm
    development will likely occur rather early in the afternoon as
    inhibition will be quickly eroded and upper-level forcing should
    overspread the warm sector during the afternoon. A 60 to 70 knot
    mid-level jet will overspread the warm sector and provide a very
    favorable supercell wind profile across most of the region. Initial
    supercells will pose a threat for all severe weather hazards
    including the potential or strong tornadoes. The uncapped warm
    sector and strong forcing suggest that eventual upscale growth is
    likely into several squall lines/clusters. Severe wind and
    line-embedded tornadoes (particularly where the line orientation
    becomes more favorable to the low-level shear vector) will become
    more likely by the evening as this more linear mode evolves.

    ...Carolinas into southern Virginia...
    A warm front is forecast to lift northward across the region during
    the day, allowing for a corridor of rich boundary-layer moisture to
    spread across parts of SC/NC/western VA. Vertically veering,
    supercell wind profiles along this boundary, and MLCAPE to 1500 J/kg
    MLCAPE is evident in forecast soundings. This could support a few
    strong to severe storms during the late afternoon or evening as
    modest height falls overspread the region.

    Valid 201200Z - 211200Z

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE
    MID-SOUTH AND TENNESSEE VALLEY...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are likely across portions of the Mid-South,
    Tennessee Valley, and lower Ohio River Valley on Tuesday, including
    damaging winds and tornadoes, a few of which could be strong.

    ...Mid-South and Tennessee/Lower Ohio Valleys...
    Residual thunderstorms and associated cloud cover are expected to be
    ongoing across the Mid-South to lower Ohio Valley Tuesday morning,
    with the early day extensiveness of these storms, and related outflow/differential heating, to be key factors, and points of
    uncertainty, regarding later-day severe potential. This will
    especially be the case with northward extent toward the Ohio River
    and northern parts of the Cumberland Plateau.

    On the south/southwest edge of this early day activity, relatively
    rapid air mass recovery and destabilization can be expected, owing
    to sustained low-level moisture transport from the southwest in
    tandem with cloud breaks and an advancing mid-level dry slot. This
    will be as an upper low shifts northeastward over the middle
    Missouri Valley and Upper Midwest, with a cyclonically curved
    mid/upper-level jet streak overspreading the warm sector, which
    could be convectively contaminated near/north of the Ohio River. At
    least moderate buoyancy is forecast to develop across the
    unperturbed and weakly capped warm sector by early afternoon.

    It should be noted that multiple sub-regional areas, particularly
    across central/eastern portions of Kentucky and Tennessee, could
    receive multiple repeat-rounds of severe storms on Tuesday.
    Thunderstorm development will likely occur rather early in the
    afternoon as inhibition will be quickly eroded and dynamic forcing
    for ascent overspreads the warm sector. Very favorable supercell
    wind profiles will exist across most of the region via the mid-level
    jet and a diurnally sustained 30+ kt low-level jet.

    Initial supercells will pose a threat for all severe weather hazards
    including the potential for strong tornadoes, but a mixed convective
    mode should evolve as upscale growth occurs into multiple clusters.
    Relatively widespread damaging winds, along with a continued
    mixed-mode tornado potential, may occur by late afternoon and
    evening as storms spread east-southeastward toward the Appalachians
    vicinity.

    ...Carolinas and far southern Virginia...
    Weak height falls will begin to influence the region by late in the
    day with a warm front beginning to shift northward across the
    region. At least a conditional or isolated potential for severe
    storms including supercells will exist near the warm front and
    within the immediately adjacent warm sector.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE
    CAROLINAS AND THE MID-ATLANTIC/SOUTHEAST STATES...

    ...SUMMARY...
    At least isolated severe storms are possible Wednesday mainly across
    parts of North Carolina and nearby parts of southern Virginia and/or
    eastern South Carolina.

    ...Synopsis...
    An elongated mid-level jet streak will extend from the
    west-northwest to east-southeast on Wednesday morning. A trough will
    amplify across the eastern CONUS with a strengthening mid-level jet
    through the day. A surface low will move slowly across Ohio during
    the period. A secondary surface low is forecast to develop across
    eastern North Carolina and eventually move into the western
    Atlantic. A cold front will extend from this surface low to near the
    Gulf Coast and into southern Texas.

    ...East Coast...
    Upper 60s to low 70s dewpoints are forecast ahead of a cold front at
    12Z Wednesday. This will support moderate instability ahead of the
    front from eastern North Carolina southward. Strong shear will be
    present where the mid-level jet overspreads this instability across
    eastern North Carolina. Within this zone is where the best storm
    organization and locally higher severe potential is located.
    Additional strong to isolated severe storms may be possible along an
    occluded front which extends northward into Virginia and eastern
    West Virginia. Damaging wind gusts will be the primary threat from
    this activity as weak mid-level lapse rates should keep the hail
    threat mostly muted.

    ...Northeast Oklahoma into southern Missouri and northern
    Arkansas...
    Some moisture recovery is forecast across eastern Oklahoma and
    northern Arkansas during the day Wednesday. Most guidance shows a
    strengthening low-level jet across eastern Oklahoma Wednesday
    afternoon/evening with strengthening isentropic ascent. Most CAM
    guidance has limited moisture and therefore no strong convective
    signal across the region. However, the NSSL WRF does have sufficient
    moisture for storms and shows a few supercells which would be
    capable of large hail. A general thunderstorm area has been added to
    address this conditional threat, but the signal is too low
    probability at this time to warrant a marginal risk.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN THE UPPER
    OHIO VALLEY...SOUTHERN VIRIGINIA...CENTRAL/EASTERN NORTH
    CAROLINA...NORTH FLORIDA...OZARKS VICINITY...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated strong to severe storms are possible from parts of the
    upper Ohio Valley, southern Virginia/North Carolina and parts of
    North Florida. Additional strong to severe storms are possible from
    parts of the Ozarks into the Mid-South.

    ...Synopsis...
    A compact shortwave trough will move through portions of the
    mid/upper Ohio Valley during the morning/early afternoon. A surface
    low across the lower Great Lakes will move eastward with a weak warm
    front near the OH/PA border. Another surface low will develop along
    the NC/VA border along a wedge front. Weak moisture return is
    possible in parts of the southern Plains ahead of a weak cold front.

    ...Southern Virginia and adjacent North Carolina...
    Cooler air is expected to be in place across the Mid-Atlantic. With
    early day precipitation occurring, this cold air should be
    reinforced. Convective development will likely be focused within the
    higher terrain as well as along a wedge front near the NC/VA border.
    South of the front, 1500-2000 J/kg MLCAPE appears possible. 45-50
    kts off effective shear will promote organized cells capable of
    damaging winds and large hail. Low-level shear will not be very
    strong, but a supercell interacting with the boundary could produce
    a tornado.

    ...Upper Ohio Valley...
    At least muted surface heating is expected in a narrow zone between
    the surface low and warm front. Cold temperatures aloft (-14 to -16
    C at 500 mb) will support 750-1000 J/kg MLCAPE. Deep-layer shear
    will not be overly strong, but 30-35 kts of effective shear could
    support marginally organized storms. Isolated damaging winds as well
    as small to marginally severe hail could occur. A conditional threat
    for a brief tornado exists with a stronger storm near the warm
    front.

    ...Northeast Oklahoma into Ozarks/Mid-South...
    Limited moisture and forcing will limit potential for storms along
    the front during the afternoon. During the evening, a strengthening
    low-level jet, though still modest, will promote some potential for
    elevated storm development. A belt of strong mid-level northwest
    flow is expected to develop later in the day. With steep mid-level
    lapse rates and 50+ kts off effective shear, the stronger storms
    would be capable of large hail.

    ...North Florida...
    Along the southeastward moving cold front, 2000-2500 J/kg MLCAPE is
    probable given low/mid 70s F dewpoints. Effective shear will remain
    strongest behind the boundary, but a cluster or two of storms could
    potentially produce damaging winds.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS TEST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A few severe storms are possible across parts of the southern High
    Plains on Thursday.

    ...Synopsis...
    A mid-level ridge will amplify somewhat as it shifts east across the
    Rockies. Northwest flow aloft will be present across the High Plains
    with weak southeasterly upslope flow at the surface. Lee troughing
    will begin during the period which will lead to some strengthening
    of the low-level flow.

    ...Southern Plains Vicinity...
    Elevated thunderstorms may be ongoing at the beginning of the period
    across Oklahoma within a zone of isentropic ascent. Destabilization
    south of this cluster may support strengthening through the morning
    and into the afternoon with additional storms possible on the
    western flank. Isolated severe wind gusts and large hail will be
    possible from this activity.

    Farther west, isolated storms are expected to develop along the
    dryline in the southern High Plains from Southwest Oklahoma to West
    Texas. Storms will likely initiate within the hot, well-mixed
    airmass and eventually move into better instability with eastward
    extent. Shear is forecast to be somewhat marginal at this time which
    may limit storm organization and a greater severe weather threat.

    ...Southeast Florida Peninsula...
    A mid-level shortwave trough will move across the Florida Peninsula
    on Thursday. 500mb temperatures will cool to around -10C.
    Strengthening flow aloft, with the associated mid-level shortwave
    trough, will provide effective shear around 35 to 40 knots. The cool
    mid-level temperatures will aid in development of moderate
    instability across the region by early afternoon. Thunderstorm
    development is expected along the east-coast sea breeze during the
    afternoon with some rotating updrafts possible. Isolated large hail
    and damaging wind gusts will be possible from this activity.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PORTIONS OF
    THE SOUTHERN PLAINS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe storms are possible across parts of the southern Plains tomorrow/Thursday, with large hail the main threat. A few instances
    of 2+ inch diameter hail are possible.

    ...Synopsis...
    Broad northwesterly flow will prevail across much of the eastern
    U.S. as a mid-level trough ejects into the Atlantic, an upper ridge
    builds over the central CONUS, and a pronounced mid-level impulse
    traverses the northern Rockies tomorrow (Thursday). A surface low
    will track along the Mid-Atlantic Coastline while surface high
    pressure overspreads much of the Midwest into the Southeast, and lee
    troughing prevails across the southern Plains. Thunderstorms are
    likely along the East Coast and the FL Peninsula, in association
    with the departing upper trough. Storms developing ahead of a
    southward-sagging cold front in FL have the best potential for
    becoming strong to locally severe over the East Coast. At least
    scattered thunderstorms are also likely across the Southern Plains, northwestward into the northern Rockies, given lee troughing and
    low-level upslope flow. Thunderstorms developing along a baroclinic
    zone along the Red River will benefit from strong instability and
    adequate wind shear, and will have the potential to become severe.

    ...Southern Plains...
    Elevated thunderstorms are expected to develop in central OK within
    a warm-air advection regime, to the north of a west-to-east oriented
    baroclinic boundary, which is expected to be situated along the Red
    River during the morning/early afternoon hours. Through the day,
    storms are expected to propagate southward toward a surface-based
    airmass over northern TX, where upper 60s/low 70s F surface
    dewpoints beneath 8 C/km mid-level lapse rates will contribute to
    2500-4000 J/kg MLCAPE. Low-level southerly flow, quickly veering to northwesterly and strengthening with height, will result in
    elongated hodographs with some low-level curvature near the
    baroclinic boundary. As such, the overall CAPE/shear parameter space
    will support supercells with large to very large hail potential. If
    a supercell can anchor along the baroclinic boundary, a tornado will
    also be possible.

    ...East Florida Peninsula...
    A southward-sagging cold front will begin to stall across the FL
    Peninsula during the afternoon hours, preceded by rich low-level
    moisture beneath 6.5-7.5 C/km mid-level lapse rates, which will
    boost MLCAPE over 2500 J/kg. Modest northwesterly mid-level flow
    impinging on the peninsula will encourage deep-layer speed shear
    over 40 kts, that in tandem with moderate to strong instability,
    will support multicells and transient supercells by afternoon. Large
    hail and strong, damaging wind gusts are the primary threats with
    the most intense storms.

    ...Northern Rockies...
    Scattered thunderstorm development is expected across central and
    northern ID into southwestern MT as strong forcing for ascent with
    the passing mid-level trough overspreads a deep, mixed boundary
    layer during the afternoon. Forecast soundings show inverted-v
    profiles extending up to 500 mb. As such, some downward momentum
    transport via evaporative cooling should encourage stronger wind
    gusts with the deeper storm cores. However, confidence is not high
    enough for severe gusts to introduce Category 1/Marginal risk
    probabilities at this time.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS NORTHEAST COLORADO...SOUTHWEST NEBRASKA...AND NORTHWEST KANSAS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A few severe storms are expected across portions of the central
    Plains on Friday with more isolated strong to severe storms possible
    across portions of western Texas and southeast Florida.

    ...Synopsis...
    A relatively flat ridge will be present across the central Rockies
    on Friday. Moderate flow across the higher terrain will result in
    lee cyclogenesis across the central High Plains. A dryline will
    extend from the surface low across western Kansas and into the Texas
    Panhandle and West Texas.

    ...Northeast Colorado, southwest Nebraska, and northwest Kansas... Strengthening southerly flow will back through the day with
    consistent boundary layer moistening ahead of the a dryline across
    northeast Kansas. This will likely result in moderate instability
    with steep lapse rates extending from the surface to the mid-levels
    within the strongly mixed zone along the dryline by mid to late
    afternoon. Upper-level forcing will be somewhat nebulous, but as the
    low-level flow backs and strengthens, increased isentropic ascent
    and upslope flow should support scattered storm development during
    the evening. Strong shear will support supercells capable of large
    hail and severe wind gusts.

    ...West Texas into the Texas Panhandle...
    Hot conditions will develop across West Texas on Friday with a very
    deeply mixed boundary layer. Storms will likely develop along the
    dryline during the late afternoon to early evening with some
    organization. Storm mode is the primary factor limiting greater
    probabilities at this time. Modest shear may support some supercell
    structures amid moderate to strong shear. However, the deeply mixed
    boundary layer will promote strong downdrafts which may support
    rather quick clustering and a more multicell mode. A zone from near
    Midland to Wichita Falls may eventually need a slight risk of storm
    mode remains favorable for a more widespread severe hail/wind gust
    threat.

    ...Eastern Kansas, Oklahoma and northern Texas into Arkansas...
    Isolated elevated thunderstorms will be possible across portions of
    central Oklahoma into central Kansas on Friday morning. However, the
    low-level jet will not be as strong and storm coverage/intensity may
    not be that great. By Friday night, more widespread elevated
    thunderstorms are likely across eastern Kansas and into parts of
    Oklahoma, southwest Missouri, and western Arkansas. Large hail may
    be possible from this overnight elevated activity.

    ...Eastern Florida...
    Relatively cool mid-level temperatures will be present across
    Florida today. Moderate instability will be in place south of a
    stalled frontal zone across central Florida. Thunderstorms are
    expected along the sea breeze near the east coast of Florida. Modest
    mid-level flow (25 to 30 knots) will result in sufficient shear for
    some multicell storm organization. Isolated large hail and damaging
    wind gusts will be the primary threats.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PORTIONS OF
    THE CENTRAL INTO SOUTHERN PLAINS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A few severe storms are expected across portions of the central into
    southern Plains on Friday, with large hail and severe gusts the main
    threats. More isolated strong to severe storms remain possible
    across portions of western Texas and southeast Florida.

    ...Synopsis...
    A mid-level trough will eject into the Atlantic as upper ridging
    prevails over the central CONUS and a mid-level trough impinges on
    the Interior West tomorrow (Friday). An embedded mid-level impulse
    will crest the central U.S. ridge, encouraging surface low
    development over the southern Plains. Rich low-level moisture will
    cyclonically pivot around the low through the forecast period, with
    at least some of this moisture reaching the Colorado Front Range by
    late afternoon. Strong to severe thunderstorms should develop over
    the central High Plains during the afternoon, with additional
    development possible overnight across the central to southern Plains
    at the nose of a low-level jet. A few strong storms also remain
    possible over eastern parts of the Florida Peninsula along
    sea-breeze boundaries.

    ...Central High Plains (Late Afternoon and Evening)...
    By afternoon, southeasterly upslope flow along the higher terrain,
    from the Colorado Front Range to the WY/NE border, will advect
    adequate moisture that is pivoting northward around the surface low.
    At least mid 50s F surface dewpoints, beneath 9 C/km low and
    mid-level lapse rates, will contribute to 1000-2000 J/kg MLCAPE.
    40-50 kts of northwesterly 500 mb flow from the upper ridge,
    overspreading weaker southeasterly flow, will support elongated,
    mostly straight hodographs and corresponding 35-40 kts of effective
    bulk shear. Storms that form and move off of the higher terrain
    should be splitting supercells with mainly a large hail threat,
    perhaps accompanied by severe gusts as well. Given such steep lapse
    rates through a deep-layer of the troposphere, and elongated
    hodographs, 2+ inch diameter hail is possible and a tornado cannot
    be ruled out.

    ...Southern High Plains (Late Afternoon and Evening)...
    By afternoon peak heating, robust mixing within the boundary layer
    will encourage the eastward advancement of the dryline over western
    TX. Resultant low-level convergence along the dryline will support
    the development of high-based storms atop a surface airmass with mid
    90s/upper 50s F temperatures/dewpoints. 8-9 C/km lapse rates through
    most of the troposphere will boost MLCAPE to 3000 J/kg, while
    gradual veering with height of the vertical wind profiles supports
    over 35+ kts of effective bulk shear. Isolated multicell complexes
    should develop, and given poor low-level shear and high evaporative
    cooling potential, these storms should be outflow dominant. A couple
    instances of large hail may accompany the stronger storm cores at
    the beginning of their life-cycles, followed by the potential for a
    severe gust or two when cold pools/outflow becomes dominant. Storms
    should diminish during the evening as the boundary layer stabilizes
    and the dryline retreats westward.

    ...Central into the Southern Plains (Overnight)...
    Considerable amounts of convective inhibition should be in place
    across much of the central into southern Plains tomorrow afternoon
    and evening, casting doubt on the persistence of the central High
    Plains supercells into this region overnight. However, even if the
    High Plains supercells dissipate, additional storm development is
    likely overnight. A 40-50 kt southwesterly low-level jet, centered
    at about 850 mb in altitude, is expected to develop over the
    southern Plains, with the terminus positioned over southern KS
    between 00-06Z. Elevated storms should develop along the terminus,
    atop the inversion layer (i.e. above 850 mb). 9+ C/km 850-500 mb
    lapse rates and elongated hodographs will support supercell
    structures with a large hail risk, though upscale growth into an MCS
    is possible, with a continued risk for hail and perhaps a few severe
    gusts if a strong enough cold pool can develop.

    ...Eastern Florida Peninsula (Afternoon)...
    By late morning into early afternoon, robust surface heating will
    support the mixing and destabilization of a moist boundary layer,
    with near 70 F dewpoints beneath 7+ C/km mid-level lapse rates
    resulting in 2000-3000 J/kg SBCAPE. The strong surface heating will
    encourage the generation and onshore movement of sea-breeze
    boundaries, which in tandem with the heating will support
    thunderstorm initiation. Modest westerly mid-level flow
    overspreading this environment will encourage 30+ kts of effective
    bulk shear (modestly elongated, straight hodographs), supporting the
    potential for multicellular development, along with an isolated wind
    gust/hail threat with the stronger storms.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
    THE SOUTHERN PLAINS AND WESTERN OZARKS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe storms are likely across part of the southern Plains and
    western Ozarks on Saturday. Severe wind gusts, large hail and a
    couple tornadoes will be possible. Hailstones greater than 2 inches
    in diameter could also occur. Marginally severe storms will also be
    possible across parts of the central High Plains, and Southeast.

    ...Southern and Central Plains...
    At mid-levels, a low will move slowly eastward across the
    Intermountain West on Saturday, as a ridge moves eastward across the south-central U.S. At the surface, a low will remain over west
    Texas, with a moist and unstable airmass extending from the southern
    Plains into the lower Mississippi Valley. Elevated convection is
    forecast over part of the southern Plains and Ozarks Saturday
    morning, but this convection should move southeastward during the
    day, allowing for moderate to strong instability to develop over
    parts of Oklahoma and north Texas by afternoon. Scattered
    thunderstorms are expected to form during the late afternoon within
    this maximum of instability. Some of the storms could be severe.

    Model forecasts suggest that a pocket of strong instability will
    develop by Saturday afternoon across parts of southwest and central
    Oklahoma. ECMWF and NAM forecast soundings near the expected maximum
    of instability increase MLCAPE into the 4000 to 5000 J/kg range. 0-6
    km shear is forecast in the 35 to 40 knot range, with 700-500 mb
    lapse rates around 9 C/km. This thermodynamic environment will be
    favorable for large hail with supercells that form in the late
    afternoon. The more intense cores could produce hailstones greater
    than 2 inches in diameter. As a low-level jet strengthens across
    central Oklahoma, NAM forecast soundings increase 0-3 km
    storm-relative helicity to over 400 m2/s2. This suggest an isolated
    tornado threat will be possible with the more dominant supercells. A wind-damage threat should also develop. A cluster of strong to
    severe storms is expected to move eastward toward the Ozarks during
    the evening.

    ...Southern and Central High Plains...
    A mid-level anticyclonic flow pattern is forecast across the Rockies
    and High Plains on Saturday. The western edge of a moist airmass
    will be in place from west Texas north-northwestward into eastern
    Colorado. As surface temperatures warm during the day, cells will
    initiate in the higher terrain of southern and central Colorado and
    in eastern New Mexico. This convection will spread eastward into the
    High Plains. The environment over the southern and central High
    Plains is forecast to have steep mid-level lapse rates and moderate
    deep-layer shear. This, along with sufficient instability, should be
    enough for a marginal severe threat during the late afternoon and
    early evening. Hail and severe gusts will be the primary threats.

    ...Southeast...
    West-northwest mid-level flow is forecast over the southeastern U.S.
    on Saturday. At the surface, a moist airmass will be in place, with
    dewpoints in the upper 60 to lower 70s F. As instability increases
    during the day, isolated thunderstorm development is expected along
    corridors of enhanced low-level convergence. Although forcing will
    be weak, enough directional shear in the low to mid-levels should
    exist for a marginal severe threat. Hail and isolated damaging wind
    gusts will be possible.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM PORTIONS OF
    THE SOUTHERN PLAINS TO THE MISSISSIPPI VALLEY AND SOUTHEAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe storms are likely across part of the southern Plains to the
    Southeast Saturday. Severe wind gusts, large hail and a couple
    tornadoes will be possible. Hailstones greater than 2 inches in
    diameter could also occur. Isolated severe storms will also be
    possible across parts of the central High Plains.

    ...Synopsis...
    Amplified and split mid-level flow is expected across much of the
    western and central CONUS D2/Saturday. A broad southern stream
    trough will deepen over the Southwestern states while strong ridging
    aloft intensifies farther north. Over the eastern US, a belt of
    stronger mid-level flow will advance around the southern periphery
    of an upper low over the Great lakes and Northeast. At the surface,
    a weak lee low is expected across southeastern CO and western KS
    with a partially modified warm front/composite outflow stretching east/southeastward. Weak upslope flow is expected north of the
    boundary across the central high plains, while a trailing dryline
    will slowly mix eastward into the southern High Plains and west
    Texas with diurnal heating.

    ...Southern Plains to the MS Valley and Southeast...
    A complex convective day is expected as a cluster of elevated storms
    or a remnant MCS will likely be ongoing at the start of the period
    from southern/southeastern KS into north-central/northeast OK.
    Likely located along the aforementioned stalled front, these early
    morning storms may reinforce the boundary as they continue
    southeastward into the lower MS Valley. Destabilization ahead of,
    and re-intensification of the cluster appears possible into parts of
    the MS and TN Valleys Saturday afternoon, with moderate buoyancy and
    sufficient deep-layer shear for an organized MCS. This would support
    a risk for damaging gusts, hail and a tornado or two from eastern
    OK, through the Ozarks and into the Southeast.

    Across southern KS, OK and into the eastern TX Panhandle,
    uncertainty remains high on the location of the convectively
    reinforced outflow boundary and its impact on the warm sector. The
    primary severe corridor is expected to be along and south of the
    boundary and where it meets the surface low to the west. Rich
    low-level moisture (70s F surface dewpoints) are expected by early
    afternoon beneath steep mid-level lase rates of 8-9 C/km. While
    forcing for ascent is not expected to be overly strong, owing to
    weak shortwave ridging aloft, robust heating and 500 mb temperatures
    near -10 C should allow for isolated convection to develop along and
    south of the composite front/triple point. Moderate deep-layer shear
    and very large buoyancy (4000-5000 J/kg of MLCAPE) would support
    risk for supercells with very large hail and damaging gusts.

    A conditional risk for couple of tornadoes may also develop as
    backed low-level flow increases along the composite front.
    Additional low-level hodograph expansion is expected into the
    evening as the low-level jet (35-40 kt at 850 mb) is forecast to
    increase across central and eastern OK. Upscale growth into one or
    more clusters with the potential for wind damage also appears likely
    into the overnight hours on Saturday and early D3/Sunday.

    ...West Texas...
    Shortwave ridging ahead of the primary upper trough to the west will
    result in neutral to slight mid-level height rises over much of the
    High Plains and west TX Saturday. This suggests ascent will be
    subtle with warm mid-level temperatures (H700 14C). The strong
    capping, in combination with weak ascent, may limit robust
    convective initiation along the dryline trailing from the surface
    low. However, weak convergence and very warm surface temperatures
    (near or exceeding 100F) may allow for isolated storms by late
    afternoon. Should this occur, 25-30 kt of deep-layer shear could
    support slow-moving supercells or clusters with a risk for hail, and
    damaging outflow gusts.

    ...Central High Plains...
    A narrow plume of surface moisture will extend westward across
    eastern CO and the central High Plains with easterly upslope flow.
    Widespread cloud cover and stratus is expected early, but some
    clearing is possible as mixing increases through the day. Supported
    by the upslope flow regime and subtle mid-level ascent from the
    approaching Southwest US trough, isolated convection is possible
    along the front Range and High plains by early afternoon. Moderate
    buoyancy (1000-2000 J/kg of MLCAPE) and 25-40 kt of mid-level flow
    could support storm organization with supercells or clusters. Hail
    and damaging winds are most probable, though a tornado cannot be
    ruled out given relatively strong low-level veering and
    local-terrain influences.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
    THE SOUTHERN PLAINS...OZARKS...LOWER TO MID MISSISSIPPI VALLEY AND
    CENTRAL GULF COAST STATES...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A severe threat is expected Sunday afternoon and evening across
    parts of the southern and central Plains. A threat for large hail,
    wind damage and a couple tornadoes will be possible. A wind damage
    and hail threat is also expected from parts of the Ozarks into the
    Southeast.

    ...Southern and Central Plains/Ozarks/Lower To Mid Mississippi
    Valley/Central Gulf Coast States...
    A mid-level ridge is forecast to move eastward across the central
    Plains on Sunday, as southwest flow becomes established in the wake
    of the ridge. At the surface, a front is forecast to be located
    across central Oklahoma eastward into the Ozarks early in the day.
    Near the front, some model forecasts show a linear convective system
    at the start of the period in the western Ozarks. This convection
    could become organized as surface temperatures warm across a moist
    and unstable airmass from the lower to mid Mississippi Valley into
    the central Gulf Coast states. Wind-damage and hail would be the
    primary threats.

    Further west, the front in Oklahoma is forecast to extend
    southwestward to a low in west Texas. Along and to the southeast of
    the front, surface dewpoints are forecast to be from the mid 60s to
    the lower 70s F. Across the moist airmas, the NAM and ECMWF are in
    reasonably good agreement, suggesting MLCAPE will peak in the 4000
    to 5000 J/kg range from northwest Texas to central Oklahoma.
    Although large-scale ascent will likely remain weak, low-level
    convergence along the front should result in convective initiation
    during the late afternoon.

    Near the forecast instability maximum, NAM forecast soundings at 21Z
    across central and southwest Oklahoma have 0-6 km shear in the 30 to
    40 knot range, with 700-500 mb lapse rates from 8.5 to 9 C/Km. This
    environment will be favorable for supercells with large hail.
    Hailstones greater than 2 inches in diameter will be possible with
    the more dominant storms. An isolated tornado threat could also
    develop, as low-level flow increases during the evening. Supercells
    will also be capable of damaging wind gusts. Due to the relatively
    weak large-ascent, thunderstorm coverage could remain somewhat
    widely spaced across parts of southwest Oklahoma and northwest
    Texas.

    Further northwest into parts of the southern and central High
    Plains, isolated thunderstorms are expected to move off the higher
    terrain during the afternoon. Although instability is forecast to
    remain weak, steep mid-level lapse rates could be sufficient for
    marginally severe hail. A few marginally severe gusts could also
    occur.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM PARTS OF
    NORTHWEST TEXAS INTO MUCH OF OKLAHOMA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe storms are expected Sunday afternoon and evening across parts
    of the southern and central Plains. Damaging winds and hail will be
    the primary threats. Areas of wind damage and hail are also expected
    from parts of the Ozarks into the Tennessee Valley.

    ...Synopsis...
    A weak upper ridge over the southern Plains will shift east through
    the period, into the TN Valley by Monday morning, as a modest
    shortwave trough moves into CO and NM late. At the surface, high
    pressure will remain centered over the Great Lakes, with an
    elongated boundary roughly along I-40 from TX to TN. This front will
    be stationary during the day but will move south as a cold front
    late in the period.

    South of the front, a very moist and unstable air mass will exist,
    with the axis of strongest CAPE from OK into AR and northern
    MS/southwest TN. The general west/northwest flow regime along atop
    this unstable corridor will favor bouts of severe storms throughout
    the period.

    ...Eastern OK to the TN Valley...
    Storms are likely to be ongoing Sunday morning from eastern KS/OK
    into northern MS, related to a broad zone of low-level theta-e
    advection with southwest flow at 850 mb. This activity, or new
    activity developing on associated outflows, may produce locally
    damaging gusts or hail as it moves across AR and into TN/MS. Weak
    shear will generally favor southeastward-moving storms/outflow, but
    areas of strong instability would certainly support a few cells
    capable of hail.

    ...Northwest TX into OK...
    Very strong instability will develop south of the boundary, and east
    the dryline over the South Plains. MLCAPE over 4000 J/kg is likely,
    complete with steep midlevel lapse rates over 8.5 C/km. Initial
    storms development near the southern Panhandle portion of the
    boundary is likely to be supercellular producing very large hail.
    Activity should quickly grow upscale into an MCS, proceeding to
    produce damaging wind over much of northwest TX and southern to
    central Oklahoma. Significant severe gusts over 65 kt will be
    possible.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
    THE SOUTHERN PLAINS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A severe threat is expected on Monday across parts of the southern
    Plains, with large hail and wind damage as the primary threats.
    Marginally severe storms will also be possible outside the Slight
    Risk area from the southern Plains into the Southeast.

    ...Southern Plains/Ark-La-Tex...
    A shortwave mid-level trough will move eastward into the southern
    Plains on Monday. Ahead of the trough, a moist airmass will be in
    place across much of the southern Plains. Scattered elevated
    thunderstorms are expected to be ongoing across part of this airmass
    early in the period, mainly across the Ark-La-Tex where warm
    advection is forecast. Some of the stronger cells could pose a
    marginal severe threat. To the south of a cold front, warming
    surface temperatures during the day will result in strong
    destabilization from the northern Texas Hill Country
    east-northeastward into northeast Texas. Thunderstorms are expected
    to develop along the front during the afternoon and move
    east-southeastward into a very moist and unstable airmass.

    Forecast soundings near the instability axis by late afternoon
    across west-central and north-central Texas have MLCAPE peaking
    between 2000 to 3000 J/kg, with 0-6 km shear between 30 and 40 knots
    at most locations. 700-500 mb lapse rates are forecast to be between
    7.5 and 8 C/km. This environment will be favorable for supercells
    and large hail, especially across west and central Texas, where
    cells are more likely to remain discrete. Hailstones greater than 2
    inches in diameter will be possible with supercells that have
    intense cores. A wind-damage threat may also accompany supercells.
    Further to the east, into parts of northeast and east Texas, some
    solutions suggest a nearly continuous line segment will form. In
    that area, the wind-damage and hail threat would be maximized along
    bowing segments, and with rotating elements within the line.
    Additional marginally severe storms are expected to form over parts
    of the southern High Plains during the late afternoon and early to
    mid evening.

    ...Southeast...
    West-southwest mid-level flow will be in place across the Southeast
    on Monday, with a moist and unstable airmass located throughout much
    of the region. By afternoon, an east-to-west axis of moderate
    instability is forecast from northern Louisiana eastward across
    south-central Mississippi into south-central Alabama. MLCAPE could
    peak in the 2000 to 3000 J/kg range along parts of the corridor.
    While large-scale ascent will be relatively weak along the
    instability axis, low-level lapse rates will become steep in the mid
    to late afternoon. Steep lapse rates and moderate instability could
    be sufficient for isolated severe gusts with semi-organized
    multicells. Hail will also be possible.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM MUCH OF
    CENTRAL TEXAS INTO PARTS OF ARKANSAS AND NORTHERN LOUISIANA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe storms are expected Monday from west-central Texas eastward
    into Arkansas and Louisiana. Areas of large hail will be possible
    with the primary risk becoming damaging winds. Marginally severe
    storms will also be possible outside the Slight Risk area from the
    southern Plains into the Southeast.

    ...Synopsis...
    Modest southwest flow aloft will persist over the southern Plains
    and into the TN/OH Valleys on Monday, with embedded waves in
    association with convective clusters throughout the period.

    At the surface, high pressure will remain over the northern
    Plains/Great Lakes/Northeast, with a large-scale boundary roughly
    from northern TX into SC. Substantial moisture will remain south of
    the front, with episodes of thunderstorms producing primarily strong
    to damaging gusts.

    ...From eastern TX into LA/MS/AL - Daytime...
    Models indicate that early day convection, possibly with wind
    potential, will affect much of eastern TX into southern AR and
    northern LA, and move into MS during the day. Substantial moisture
    and instability will remain across the region ahead of any such
    system, suggesting a wind threat. If the early day storms diminish,
    outflows may still serve as a focal point for afternoon development.
    Additional warm sector activity may develop eastward into AL and GA
    as well, where shear will be weak but CAPE sufficient for locally
    severe gusts or marginal hail.

    ...West-central into central and southeast TX...
    Strong instability will redevelop across the region in the wake of
    the early activity over much of eastern TX. Cool midlevel
    temperatures with -10 to -12 C at 500 mb combined with upper 60s+
    dewpoints will lead to strong instability. The nose of the low-level
    lapse rate plume emanating out of southwest TX will be a primary
    focus for supercell development, with very large hail and perhaps a
    brief tornado possible. Near or just east of the lapse rate plume
    may be the composite front/outflow boundary, and a large convective
    complex is forecast during the late afternoon and evening. Details
    are inherently uncertain with these MCS tracks and antecedent
    outflows, but in general, much of central into eastern TX should
    experience strong to severe wind gusts.

    ...Eastern NM and CO...TX Panhandle...
    Beneath the upper wave, cold temperatures aloft and daytime heating
    over the high terrain will lead to an uncapped air mass along the
    Front Range and extending south across most of eastern NM. Easterly
    upslope flow combined with weak westerlies aloft may be sufficient
    for scattered cells producing marginal hail. Clustering of storms
    with aggregate outflows may stretch into the OK/TX Panhandles late,
    with marginal wind and hail risk.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
    THE SOUTHERN PLAINS AND LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered strong to severe storms are expected on Tuesday from parts
    of the southern Plains eastward into the Southeast. The greatest
    threat of large hail and wind damage will be over parts of southwest
    and south-central Texas. A locally greater threat for wind damage
    could also occur in the lower Mississippi Valley.

    ...Southern Plains...
    A mid-level shortwave trough will move eastward into the Ozarks on
    Tuesday, as flow remains from a westerly direction across much of
    the southern Plains. At the surface, a cold front will advance
    southward into central and southwest Texas. Surface dewpoints near
    and to the south of the front will be in the lower to mid 70s F,
    which will contribute to strong destabilization in some areas by
    midday. As low-level convergence becomes focused near the boundary
    in the afternoon, thunderstorm development is expected. Scattered
    thunderstorms are forecast to develop and move southeastward across
    southwest and south-central Texas, where a severe threat appears
    likely.

    NAM forecast soundings late Tuesday afternoon near the instability
    maximum have MLCAPE peaking near 2500 J/kg, with 700-500 mb lapse
    rates near 8 C/km. In addition, 0-6 km shear is forecast to be
    around 35 knots, which should support supercells with large hail.
    Hailstones of greater than 2 inches in diameter will be possible,
    with supercells that develop intense cores. As the cluster expands
    in coverage, and moves eastward into south-central Texas, a
    wind-damage threat is also expected.

    Further eastward into southeast Texas, an MCS is forecast to move
    away from the area during the morning. It its wake, a slightly more
    stable airmass should keep convective development more isolated
    during the afternoon. A marginal severe threat will be possible with
    any cells that can initiate and persist as the airmass recovers.

    ...Lower Mississippi Valley/Southeast...
    A mid-level shortwave trough will move eastward into the Ozarks on
    Tuesday, as flow remains southwesterly over the southeastern U.S. At
    the surface, a front is forecast to be located from the vicinity of
    southeast Texas extending east-northeastward into the central Gulf
    Coast states. A moist and unstable airmass is expected near and to
    the south of the boundary over the lower Mississippi Valley and
    central Gulf Coast. From the morning into early afternoon, a linear
    MCS is forecast to move from southeast Texas into south-central
    Mississippi. As surface temperatures warm ahead of the MCS, a
    wind-damage threat is expected to develop as the line gradually
    intensifies. Some models suggest that strong instability will
    develop across parts of the lower Mississippi Valley by midday,
    which would support a locally greater wind-damage threat.

    Further to the east, moderate instability will likely develop over
    parts Alabama and Georgia by afternoon. Although deep-layer shear is
    forecast to remain relatively weak, steep low-level lapse rates
    during the afternoon may be enough for marginally severe wind gusts.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM SOUTHWEST
    INTO SOUTH CENTRAL TEXAS...AND FROM SOUTHEAST MISSISSIPPI ACROSS
    ALABAMA INTO WEST CENTRAL GEORGIA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered strong to severe storms are expected on Tuesday from parts
    of the southern Plains eastward into the Southeast. The greatest
    threat of large hail and wind damage will be over parts of southwest
    and south-central Texas. A locally greater threat for wind damage
    could also occur in the lower Mississippi Valley.

    ...TX to GA...
    A blocking pattern will persist across the CONUS, with ridging from
    the northern High Plains into the Prairie provinces, and a
    downstream closed low over the upper MS Valley. Broad cyclonic flow
    will likewise persist from the southern Plains to the southern
    Appalachians, atop a mean baroclinic zone from TX to the Carolina
    coastal plain. Outflow from an ongoing storm cluster across the
    Ark-La-Miss and additional storms later D1 (today) in TX will likely
    modulate the effective frontal zone tomorrow.

    The more probable corridor for severe-storm development Tuesday will
    be along the effective front from southwest into south central TX,
    though the usual forecast biases are a concern with convective
    outflow progressing farther southwest than explicitly forecast by
    model guidance. Where the boundary is established by afternoon, the
    richest moisture/warm temperatures beneath the elevated mixed layer
    will result in large buoyancy (MLCAPE near or above 3000 J/kg). The
    boundary will also be coincident with sufficient deep-layer vertical
    shear for supercells with very large hail, while any tornado threat
    will likely need to be focused with the stronger low-level shear
    along the modifying front/outflow with early storm development.
    Upscale growth into a larger cluster/MCS appears likely through the
    evening as convection spreads southeastward with an attendant threat
    for damaging winds/large hail.

    Farther east, the layered influences of ongoing and upcoming (D1)
    convection will largely drive the severe threat tomorrow across the
    Southeast. There will be some potential for a remnant MCV from
    convection tonight to move along the residual front/outflow
    tomorrow, potentially from MS to GA. Damaging winds will be the
    main threat with any convective clusters.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
    THE SOUTHERN HIGH PLAINS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated large hail and severe wind gusts will be possible in parts
    of the southern High Plains Wednesday afternoon and evening.
    Marginally severe storms will be possible over part of the central
    High Plains, and from the southern Plains into the Southeast.

    ...Southern High Plains...
    At mid-levels, convergent flow from the northwest and west will be
    place across the southern Plains on Wednesday. At the surface, an
    area of high pressure is forecast over the central Plains. To the
    south of the anticyclone, a post-frontal airmass will gradually
    modify as moisture begins to return northward over parts of the
    southern Plains. Moderate instability is expected to develop over a
    few areas from central and east Texas into western Louisiana. Over
    this modifying airmass, any severe threat is expected to be
    marginal.

    Further west into parts of the southern High Plains, convective
    initiation is expected during the early afternoon in the higher
    terrain of eastern New Mexico and far west Texas. The storms will
    gradually move eastward toward an axis of moderate instability.
    Forecast soundings early Wednesday evening near the instability axis
    have 0-6 km shear near 30 knots, with 700-500 mb lapse rates
    approaching 8 C/km. This could be enough for isolated large hail and
    severe wind gusts, associated with strong updrafts that develop in
    the afternoon and evening.

    Northward into central and eastern Colorado, thunderstorms are
    expected to develop in the higher terrain and move eastward into the
    central Plains. Weak instability, sufficient deep-layer shear and
    steep lapse rage could be enough for a marginal severe threat.

    ...Southeast...
    West-southwesterly flow at mid-levels is forecast over the Southeast
    on Wednesday. At the surface, a moist airmass will likely be in
    place from the lower Mississippi Valley eastward into the eastern
    Gulf Coast states. As surface temperatures warm, isolated to
    scattered thunderstorm development is expected along zones of
    maximized heating, and near focused areas of low-level convergence.
    Although large-scale ascent and deep-layer shear should be weak, the thermodynamic environment may be enough for marginally severe wind
    gusts with the stronger multicells.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WEDNESDAY
    AFTERNOON INTO EARLY WEDNESDAY NIGHT FOR THE NORTHERN TEXAS
    PANHANDLE INTO FAR SOUTHWEST KANSAS...AND FOR SOUTHEAST NEW MEXICO
    AND SOUTHWEST TEXAS....

    ...SUMMARY...
    Occasional large hail and severe wind gusts will be possible across
    the northern Texas Panhandle and vicinity, and across southwest
    Texas/southeast New Mexico. Isolated wind damage may occur across
    the Gulf coast/Southeast.

    ...Synopsis...
    Blocking will persist over the CONUS, with a midlevel trough over
    the upper MS Valley and Great Lakes, and a southern stream from TX
    into the Southeast. The primary baroclinic zone will remain from
    south TX eastward across the Gulf coast into the coastal Carolinas. Boundary-layer dewpoints are likely to remain above 70 F in areas
    not overturned by prior convection, which will again support MLCAPE
    at or above 2000 J/kg along the southern fringe of the westerlies
    aloft. However, the influence of convection from D1 casts
    uncertainty on the potential severe-storm threats tomorrow from LA
    into the Southeast, so will maintain 5% probabilities/MRGL and
    potential mesoscale corridors of greater wind-damage threat could be
    identified in later outlook updates.

    Farther west, the scenario across the southern High Plains is
    looking more bimodal with time. To the south, lingering
    moisture/lapse rates and diurnal heating over the high terrain could
    initiate isolated supercells capable of producing large hail across
    southwest TX and southeast NM. To the north, an embedded shortwave
    trough rotating south-southeastward over the central High Plains,
    and an associated cold frontal surge, will focus thunderstorm
    development from extreme southwest KS into the northern TX
    Panhandle. A mix of storm clusters and supercells will be capable
    of producing large hail and severe outflow gusts as convection
    spreads southeastward Wednesday afternoon/evening, and a marginal
    severe threat could persist overnight into western OK.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
    THE SOUTHERN HIGH PLAINS...AND SOUTHEAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    A marginal severe threat is expected on Thursday from parts of the
    southern High Plains into the Southeast.

    ...Southern High Plains...
    A mid-level ridge will take shape on Thursday across the Rockies, as
    a short-wave trough moves southeastward through the central states.
    At the surface, a corridor of low-level moisture will be oriented
    from the southern High Plains north-northwestward into the southern
    Rockies. An axis of instability is forecast to develop along this
    corridor by afternoon. Thunderstorms will likely develop in the
    higher terrain and gradually spread eastward into the southern High
    Plains. Steep lapse rates and sufficient deep-layer shear could be
    enough for an isolated threat for hail and severe gusts.

    ...Southeast...
    A mid-level short-wave trough will move southeastward through the
    central states on Thursday. At the surface, a moist and unstable
    airmass will remain over the Gulf Coast states. Moderate
    destabilization is expected across parts of this airmass by
    afternoon. Although large-scale ascent will be relatively weak,
    isolated to scattered thunderstorms will likely form in areas that
    have locally maximized low-level convergence. The greatest
    convective coverage may occur from the lower Mississippi Valley to
    the central Gulf Coast, where low-level flow is forecast to be
    stronger. A marginal severe threat will be possible in the afternoon
    and evening, in areas where low-level lapse rates become the
    steepest.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS THURSDAY AFTERNOON
    THROUGH EARLY FRIDAY NIGHT FROM THE TEXAS-NEW MEXICO BORDER INTO
    CENTRAL TEXAS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Large hail and damaging winds will be possible from the Texas-New
    Mexico border eastward into central Texas.

    ...TX late Thursday afternoon into Thursday night...
    A midlevel shortwave trough will move southeastward over the lower
    MO Valley/Ozarks, as an associated surface cold front likewise moves
    across MO/AR/OK/TX in the wake of weak cyclogenesis from southern MO
    to the lower OH Valley. The warmest surface temperatures and
    steepest midlevel lapse rates are expected in the pre-frontal
    corridor from west central into central TX, where MLCAPE will likely
    exceed 2500 J/kg. Strong surface heating/mixing will erode
    convective inhibition and at least widely scattered thunderstorm
    development appears probable along and just south of the front by
    late afternoon across west central TX. Storms will then spread east-southeastward toward central TX through the early overnight
    hours. The strong buoyancy and sufficiently long hodographs
    (effective bulk shear of 35-45 kt) will support supercells capable
    of producing isolated very large hail initially. Upscale growth
    into one or more clusters is also expected during the evening, with
    an attendant threat for damaging winds. A couple of tornadoes may
    also occur with the initial supercells and/or favorable storm
    interactions.

    ...Mid-South Thursday evening...
    With weak cyclogenesis expected across southern MO in advance of the
    midlevel shortwave trough, weak low-level mass response and
    northward moisture transport will occur from eastern AR to the
    confluence of the MS/OH Rivers. Midlevel lapse rate will not be
    steep, but destabilization will be sufficient for a broken band of
    storms near and south of the surface cyclone track. Forecast wind
    profiles suggest some potential for rotating storms with a low-end
    threat for wind damage and a couple of tornadoes.

    ...Southeast Thursday afternoon/evening...
    A moist boundary layer and daytime heating along and south of a
    residual baroclinic zone will likely support at least scattered
    thunderstorm development Friday afternoon from southeast AL/FL
    Panhandle across southern/central GA. There is some potential for a
    remnant, convectively enhanced midlevel trough to cross this area
    during peak heating, and an upgrade to SLGT risk/15% wind
    probabilities may become necessary in later updates.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
    THE EASTERN GULF COAST STATES...GEORGIA...CAROLINAS AND VIRGINIA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered severe storms with wind damage, large hail, and a couple
    tornadoes will be possible Friday afternoon and evening from parts
    of the Eastern Gulf Coast to the Mid-Atlantic.

    ...Georgia/Carolinas/Mid-Atlantic/Gulf Coast States...
    At mid-levels, a trough will move across the Ohio and Tennessee
    Valleys, as a jet streak translates eastward across the Southeast.
    Ahead of the trough, a moist and unstable airmass will be in place
    from the central Gulf Coast northeastward into the Carolinas and
    Mid-Atlantic. Surface dewpoints in the mid to upper 60s F will
    likely result in moderate destabilization across much of this
    airmass by midday. Scattered thunderstorm development, aided by
    topographic forcing, is expected to take place in the southern and
    central Appalachians during the early afternoon. Convection will
    move eastward into the lower elevations of the Atlantic Coastal
    states during the mid to late evening, where a severe threat will
    likely develop. The increase in large-scale ascent and deep-layer
    shear associated with the approaching mid-level jet will be a driver
    for the severe threat Friday afternoon and evening.

    NAM forecast soundings along the instability axis during the
    afternoon suggest that MLCAPE will peak near 1500 J/kg, and that 0-6
    km shear will increase into the 50 to 60 knot range. While the
    low-levels are forecast to remain veered to the southwest, strong
    speed shear will be present in the 850 to 500 mb layer. This will be
    favorable for supercells and bowing line segments. 0-3 km lapse
    rates are forecast to peak near 7.5 C/km, which will support a
    potential for damaging wind gusts. Supercells will also be capable
    of producing isolated large hail, especially in areas where the
    maximum potential for surface heating is realized. Although
    low-level shear is not expected to be that strong, any supercell
    that becomes intense could produce a brief tornado. The severe
    threat is expected to move eastward onto the Atlantic Coastal Plain
    in the late afternoon, and toward the Atlantic Coast during the
    evening.

    ...Western Great Lakes...
    At mid-levels, flow is forecast to become north-northwesterly over
    the upper Mississippi Valley and western Great Lakes, in the wake of
    an exiting trough. At the surface, a post-frontal airmass will be
    located over the western Great Lakes, where flow will be
    northwesterly. A pocket of locally higher surface dewpoints is
    forecast from eastern Wisconsin into lower Michigan. Within this
    pocket, weak instability is expected to develop along the western
    edge of the higher surface dewpoints, along and inland from the
    western shore of Lake Michigan. Along this north-to-south corridor,
    surface heating and low-level convergence will make convective
    initiation likely during the afternoon. Forecast soundings at 21Z
    from Chicago to Milwaukee have 0-3 km lapse rates peaking near 8.5
    C/km, which will be favorable for isolated marginally severe gusts.
    In addition, 500 mb temps will be relatively cold near -17C, which
    could also support a potential for hail with the stronger updrafts.

    shortwave trough located over the lower Ohio River Valley early
    Friday morning, will steadily progress east-southeastward over the
    southern Appalachians and reach the Carolinas/Virginia by Friday
    evening. Strong winds aloft will accompany this shortwave trough
    with a belt of 60+ kt mid-level winds overspreading the southern
    Appalachians and Carolinas.

    While the warm sector preceding an east/southeastward-moving cold
    front will not be strongly unstable, particularly by late-spring
    standards, prevalent 60s F surface dewpoints, steepening mid-level
    lapse rates and strong deep-layer shear will support organized
    severe storms especially into Friday afternoon through early
    evening, including relatively fast-moving storms for late spring.
    While a few early day severe storms could occur across eastern
    Kentucky and nearby Allegheny Plateau/Appalachians, the main severe
    risk should begin to evolve in the immediate lee of the Appalachians
    including the Blue Ridge vicinity by Friday early/mid-afternoon.
    These storms, including some supercells and more prevalent evolving
    linear clusters with bowing segments, should reach coastal areas by
    early evening. Damaging winds and severe hail can be expected, and
    some tornado potential may exist as well, particularly across
    Virginia/North Carolina near the surface wave and warm front where
    low-level shear/SRH should maximize.

    ...Eastern Wisconsin/northern Illinois/Lake Michigan vicinity...
    A south/southeastward-digging clipper-type shortwave trough will
    influence the region into Friday afternoon and evening, with
    thunderstorms potentially focusing near a weak surface
    wave/instability gradient as a cold front otherwise progresses
    southward across the region. Low-level moisture will be rather
    modest with afternoon dewpoints generally limited to the lower 50s
    F. However, relatively steep lapse rates and moderately strong
    vertical shear, enhanced by 50+ northwesterly mid-level winds,
    should support strong/isolated severe storms Friday afternoon into
    evening, with hail and wind possible as storms progress
    south-southeastward.

    ...Eastern New Mexico...
    While the overall scenario will not be as severe storm-favorable as
    prior days, a couple of locally severe storms may occur Friday
    afternoon/early evening mainly near the higher terrain of
    east-central New Mexico.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN PARTS OF THE CENTRAL/EASTERN STATES...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe thunderstorms are likely from parts of Kansas to
    northwest Texas and across the Lower Mid-Atlantic States into North
    Carolina, mainly during the afternoon to evening Saturday. Isolated
    damaging winds are also possible over south Florida from late
    morning into the afternoon.

    ...KS to northwest TX...
    Sufficient confidence exists to warrant a severe area delineation.
    Overall setup should support isolated severe hail and wind from late
    afternoon into mid-evening.

    A compact shortwave impulse will move south-southeast from the
    northern into the central Great Plains on Saturday. This will aid in
    increasing large-scale ascent, favorably timed with peak diurnal
    heating across KS into OK. While rich Gulf moisture will remain
    confined to south TX, evapotranspiration should be adequate to yield
    weak to moderate buoyancy. Mid-level lapse rates will be modest away
    from the immediate influence of the impulse, and this will broadly
    curtail updraft strength to an extent. But weak low-level
    southerlies veering to at least moderate mid-level northwesterlies
    should yield a favorable deep-layer shear profile for a few
    organized cells. The confined buoyancy plume will likely yield a
    diminishing severe threat as convection spreads south-southeast
    after dusk.

    ...Lower Mid-Atlantic States to NC...
    Overall setup is expected to yield sporadic damaging winds and
    isolated marginally severe hail. Have broadened the level 1-MRGL
    risk to account for potential convective development emanating east
    from the lee of the southern/central Appalachians.

    In the wake of extensive convection on D1, persistent low-level west
    to west-northwesterlies should yield substantially lower mean-mixing
    ratios by Saturday afternoon. However, both steep low to mid-level
    lapse rates are expected from VA northward beneath the eastern CONUS
    trough. This should be adequate for weak MLCAPE. Another shortwave
    impulse digging through the base of the trough should aid in
    isolated to perhaps scattered lower-topped storms by afternoon.
    Guidance does differ markedly with the degree of residual low-level
    moisture and overall convective coverage amid weak low-level
    convergence. Strong low to mid-level flow will be more pronounced
    with southern extent into NC, but this is where sustained convective development becomes more uncertain.

    ...South FL...
    Convection should be ongoing across the central FL Peninsula at 12Z
    Saturday ahead of a surface cold front shifting south and weak
    mid-level height falls along the peripheral influence of the broad
    trough over the East. Although mid-level lapse rates will be weak
    ahead of morning storms, downstream boundary-layer heating should
    support moderate buoyancy. With moderate mid-level westerlies,
    multicell clusters may spread across south FL into the afternoon.
    Isolated strong to marginally severe gusts are possible.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS SATURDAY AFTERNOON
    INTO SATURDAY NIGHT FROM SOUTHERN KANSAS ACROSS CENTRAL OKLAHOMA TO
    THE RED RIVER...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Large hail and severe outflow gusts will be possible Saturday
    afternoon/night from southern Kansas across central Oklahoma to the
    Red River.

    ...Synopsis...
    An amplified pattern will continue with a deep trough over the
    Northeast into the Mid-Atlantic and a ridge over the northern High
    Plains. A smaller-scale shortwave trough, now over eastern MT, will
    dig south-southeastward to KS/OK during the afternoon/evening, with
    a weak surface reflection/trough providing a focus for severe-storm
    development Saturday afternoon/evening.

    ...Southern KS/central OK Saturday afternoon/night...
    Modest moisture return will occur ahead of the weak surface trough
    and digging shortwave trough, though strong surface heating and evapotranspiration will contribute to destabilization as a result of
    full green-up and favorable soil moisture. Storm initiation appears
    most probable from southern KS into central OK by late afternoon
    along and just east of a weak surface trough, and storms will spread south-southeastward through the early overnight hours. Moderate
    buoyancy (MLCAPE approaching 1500-2000 J/kg), minimal convective
    inhibition, and long hodographs will support supercells capable of
    producing large hail and damaging winds. Low-level moisture will be
    on the lower margins for a tornado threat, though a couple of
    tornadoes could occur during the evening with favorable storm
    interactions.

    ...Mid-Atlantic Saturday afternoon...
    In the wake of a pronounced shortwave trough and fairly widespread
    D1 convection, low-level moisture/buoyancy will be more limited
    tomorrow. Widely scattered thunderstorms will be possible during
    the afternoon as an embedded speed max (now approaching Lake
    Superior) rotates over VA/NC during the afternoon. Daytime heating
    and boundary-layer dewpoints in the low-mid 50s will drive weak
    buoyancy, in an environment with 500 mb temperatures of -15 to -20 C
    with strong west-northwesterly, deep-layer vertical shear. The net
    result will be the potential for strong/isolated damaging gusts and
    marginally severe hail.

    ...Central/south FL during the day...
    A band of convection will shift southward from central into south FL
    during the day, along and ahead of a surface cold front. There are
    concerns about the degree of surface heating and midlevel lapse
    rates given relatively early arrival of the convection. However,
    flow aloft will be unusually strong from the west, which suggest
    some potential for storm organization and an accompanying threat for
    wind damage.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN EAST TX...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered large hail and isolated damaging winds are possible on
    Sunday from mid-afternoon to mid-evening Sunday in east Texas.
    Isolated severe storms are also possible with similar timing over
    the Carolinas and a portion of the northern Rockies.

    ...East TX...
    A compact shortwave impulse near the Ozarks at 12Z Sunday should
    track southeast across the Lower MS Valley towards the central Gulf
    Coast. While mid-level lapse rates will be modest to the
    west-southwest of this wave, a belt of moderate mid-level to strong
    upper-level northwesterlies is anticipated during the afternoon.
    With weak low-level winds veering with height, this setup should
    yield favorable hodograph elongation for supercells.

    The primary uncertainties are 1) the coverage of afternoon storms
    and 2) the spatial location for a mesoscale corridor of greater
    threat. More aggressive guidance appears to develop convection both
    along a convergent dryline towards the I-35 corridor and eastward
    within a weak low-level warm theta-e advection regime that is aided
    by pronounced differential boundary-layer heating across a confined
    plume of rich western Gulf moisture. While there is spatial and
    coverage uncertainty, the consensus signal for a few supercells
    warrants an upgrade to a level 2-SLGT risk highlight. Scattered
    large hail and isolated damaging winds should be the primary hazards
    before convection weakens after dusk.

    ...Northern Rockies...
    In the wake of an initial shortwave trough crossing the southern
    Canadian Rockies into the Prairie Provinces early in the period, an
    upstream, positive-tilt impulse will shift towards the northern
    Rockies Sunday night. The lead wave will aid in a Pacific cold front
    pushing east across much of the MT High Plains by late afternoon
    Sunday. Primary severe potential is anticipated within a confined
    corridor over the adjacent high terrain to the west-southwest. This
    corridor will lie between a belt of enhanced mid-level
    west-southwesterlies to its north and deeper-mixed thermodynamic
    profiles to its south. Scattered thunderstorms are expected to
    initiate by mid to late afternoon. Strong to isolated severe gusts
    along with small to marginally severe hail are possible.

    ...Carolinas...
    Yet another shortwave impulse rotating through the base of the
    persistent longwave trough over the East should aid in mid-afternoon
    storm development east of the southern Appalachians. Buoyancy will
    be weak amid marginal mid-level lapse rates and low-level
    westerlies. But steep low-level lapse rates coupled with sufficient
    speed shear should yield a few transient/weak supercell to multicell
    structures as convection develops off the higher terrain and along a quasi-stationary front into the evening. Small to marginally severe
    hail may develop in initial cores. This would aid in downdrafts
    producing strong surface gusts capable of isolated damaging winds.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
    CENTRAL AND EASTERN TEXAS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered large hail and isolated damaging winds are possible on
    Sunday from mid-afternoon to mid-evening Sunday in east Texas. More
    isolated severe thunderstorms are possible across parts of the
    mid-Tennessee River Valley into the southern Appalachians, central
    High Plains, northern Rockies, and south Florida.

    ...Synopsis...
    Little change is expected to the overall synoptic regime over the
    next 48 hours across the country. Long-wave ridging will persist
    across much of the Rockies/Plains with embedded shortwave troughs
    propagating across the western CONUS. To the east, a long-wave
    trough will undergo gradual de-amplification as it continues to
    shift east/northeast. Overall, this synoptic regime will favor
    multiple focused corridors of at least low-end strong to severe
    thunderstorm potential, though the greatest risk will reside across
    parts of TX where buoyancy/shear should be most conducive for
    organized convection.

    ...Central to eastern Texas...
    Early-morning convection associated with the progressive shortwave
    trough currently over the central Plains will likely be ongoing
    across parts of north/northeast TX by 12z Sunday. Recent forecast
    guidance suggests this activity will weaken through morning,
    possibly leaving an outflow boundary draped across parts of
    eastern/central TX. Heating of a moist air mass along and west of
    the boundary and/or along a weak surface trough should yield around
    3000 J/kg MLCAPE by mid-afternoon with weak capping. Recent
    convective allowing guidance continues to show some uncertainty
    regarding convective coverage within this weakly forced regime, but
    all solutions show at least a few robust cells developing along the boundary/trough by late afternoon. 30-40 knot mid-level flow
    associated with the departing upper-level perturbation will support
    adequate deep-layer wind shear for supercells capable of severe
    gusts and large to very large (2+ inches in diameter) hail. While
    low-level wind shear is expected to generally be weak for much of
    the region, a tornado threat may materialize if convection can
    become rooted along the boundary where low-level vorticity may be
    locally maximized.

    ...Tennessee to the Carolinas...
    A diffuse cold front currently pushing south across the Midwest/OH
    Valley is forecast to stall from southern IL into parts of KY, TN,
    and the Carolinas by peak heating Sunday. A combination of moist
    low-level conditions and weak capping should facilitate thunderstorm development along the front by late afternoon. 25-30 knot mid-level
    flow within the base of a mid-level trough should allow for
    sufficient deep-layer wind shear for a few organized cells/clusters
    capable of severe hail and sporadic damaging winds. Confidence in
    the severe threat is greatest across eastern TN into the Carolinas
    where mesoscale ascent along the boundary will be aided by lift
    ahead of the trough axis.

    ...Northern Rockies...
    A shortwave trough is forecast to move across the Pacific
    Northwest/northern Rockies through Sunday evening. Steepening
    mid-level lapse rates and modest broad-scale ascent ahead of the
    wave should promote thunderstorm development by late afternoon from
    eastern ID into western MT. Although overall buoyancy will be modest
    (MUCAPE approaching 200-400 J/kg), strong speed shear within the
    CAPE-bearing layer (around 35-40 knots within the 0-3 km layer)
    should promote some storm organization/longevity with an attendant
    hail/wind risk.

    ...Central High Plains...
    Thunderstorm development along the eastern slopes of the central
    Rockies is anticipated by mid-afternoon within a weak upslope flow
    regime. 20-25 knot westerly mid-level flow will not only help
    elongate hodographs, but will advect steeper mid-level lapse rates
    into the region. This, combined with slightly improved low-level
    moisture, should be sufficient for a few robust thunderstorms
    capable of severe gusts and perhaps large hail.

    ...South Florida...
    The frontal boundary currently drifting southward along the FL
    peninsula is forecast to stall later tonight/early Sunday morning.
    Although forcing for ascent along the stalled boundary will be weak,
    very moist low-level conditions and limited capping will promote
    thunderstorm development across the central peninsula by late
    morning. Through late afternoon, additional heating combined with
    persistent 25-30 knot mid-level flow aloft should promote some storm organization with an attendant wind threat across southern FL.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE
    CENTRAL/SOUTHERN HIGH PLAINS TO THE NORTHERN GREAT PLAINS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered severe thunderstorms are possible from the central and
    southern High Plains into the northern Great Plains during the late
    afternoon and evening on Monday. Severe gusts and large hail are the
    expected hazards.

    ...Synopsis...

    An upper-level split flow regime on Monday will be characterized by
    a northern stream shortwave trough moving from the northern Rockies
    to the northern Plains, while a southern stream shortwave trough
    develops east from the Southwest into the southern/central High
    Plains. At the surface, an elongated area of low pressure will
    modestly deepen over the central Plains, with a lee trough extending
    southward across the southern High Plains. A cold front also will be
    oriented northeast to southwest from northern MN into northeast CO
    by 00z. The front will develop southeast into Tuesday morning across
    the Upper Midwest and central Plains. Both the surface cold front
    and the southern High Plains lee trough will focus thunderstorm
    activity during the afternoon/evening.

    ...NE/CO/WY border area to western MN...

    Moderate to strong instability is expected to develop along a
    somewhat narrow corridor ahead of the southeast-advancing cold front
    during the afternoon. Southwesterly flow aloft will modestly
    increase into the evening as height falls overspread the region.
    Strong heating will promote a deeply mixed boundary amid low to mid
    60s F dewpoints ahead of the front (lower dewpoints expected further
    west across CO/WY/NE border area). Initial thunderstorms are likely
    to develop in an upslope flow regime across the CO/WY/NE border
    vicinity. High-based supercells capable of severe gusts and hail
    will be possible.

    Additional storm development is likely later in the afternoon into
    the evening along the cold front from central NE into MN. The
    stronger southwesterly flow aloft is forecast to lag behind the
    front, and developing convection may quickly move to the cool side
    of the boundary given boundary-parallel wind profiles. This will
    likely result in multicell clusters/linear segments capable of
    producing damaging gusts and large hail in stronger embedded cores.
    Instability will decrease with increasing inhibition with eastward
    extent during the evening and severe potential should wane after
    03-06z.

    ...KS to the southern High Plains...

    Widespread thunderstorm activity is expected to develop over NM/CO
    in a drier and modestly unstable airmass compared to further east,
    but aided by steep lapse rates and several impulses ejecting across
    the southern Rockies ahead of the main upper shortwave trough.
    Strong outflow winds and hail may occur with this activity as it
    spreads east across the High Plains. This activity will encounter a
    corridor of deeper boundary-layer moisture and strong instability
    from western KS into parts of the Panhandles and western OK toward
    late afternoon/early evening. At the same time, a low-level jet will
    be increasing over the southern Plains. As a result, some organization/consolidation of thunderstorm clusters into bowing
    segments will be possible. This may result in a short window of
    increased severe gust potential across portions of western KS into
    western OK. The eastward extent of severe potential will likely be
    limited across central KS/OK and points east due to modest vertical
    shear, and as inhibition increases in the 03-06z time frame.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE SOUTHERN
    GREAT PLAINS TO THE MID-MS VALLEY...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered severe thunderstorms are possible from the southern Great
    Plains to the Midwest, mainly from midday to mid-evening Tuesday. A
    couple tornadoes, damaging winds, and large hail may occur.

    ...Synopsis...
    A low-amplitude southern-stream shortwave impulse should begin
    phasing with a northern-stream shortwave trough in the Upper
    Midwest. This process will aid in strengthening mid-level
    southwesterlies across the northern part of the warm-moist sector,
    roughly from the IA/IL border area northward. Weak cyclogenesis
    should be induced along the WI portion of a progressive cold front.
    Trailing portion of this front will push southeast in OK/TX as a
    surface ridge builds south into the southern High Plains.

    ...TX Big Country to the Ozarks...
    More pronounced boundary-layer heating is likely to occur with
    southern extent across this portion of the warm sector characterized
    by rich low-level moisture. A warm mid-level thermal profile should
    yield modest lapse rates and support largely moderate buoyancy with
    MLCAPE of 1500-2500 J/kg on Tuesday afternoon. But this portion of
    the warm sector front will have a more westerly wind profile in the mid/upper-levels, supportive of initial slow-moving supercells.

    Widespread afternoon thunderstorms are expected from southeast KS
    through western OK, with isolated to scattered storms into north TX
    during the evening. Upscale growth into clusters and eventual linear
    segments is likely, especially as composite outflows serve as the
    effective cold front. Initial large hail with a tornado or two,
    transitioning to more of a damaging wind threat is anticipated. The
    severe threat should diminish as it shifts south/east Monday night.

    ...Mid-MS Valley to southern/eastern WI...
    A strong and broad low-level jet on Monday will aid in rich moisture
    return ahead of the surface front into at least WI by Tuesday. Areas
    of convection will likely be ongoing at 12Z within the attendant
    warm conveyor and a favorably diffluent upper-flow regime. Mid-level
    lapse rates will be poor to weak, owing to both preceding convection
    and relatively warm 500-mb temperatures attendant to the
    southern-stream impulse. Guidance consensus suggests that
    appreciable boundary-layer heating may be displaced east and south
    of the rich moisture plume. As such, confidence is below-average
    regarding the northeast extent of the level 2-SLGT risk. But given
    the presence of seasonably strong 700-mb southwesterlies, some
    damaging wind threat remains apparent to at least the Mid-MS Valley
    with late-afternoon/early-evening scattered storms.

    Scattered severe thunderstorms are possible from the central and
    southern High Plains into the northern Great Plains during the late
    afternoon and evening on Monday. Severe gusts and large hail are the
    expected hazards.

    ...Synopsis...
    A split-flow regime Monday will be characterized by a
    northern-stream shortwave trough moving east from the northern
    Rockies along the international border over the northern Great
    Plains, and a low-amplitude southern-stream trough ejecting across
    the Southwest onto the southern High Plains. A surface cold front
    preceding the northern-stream trough should extend across northern
    MN into the central High Plains. A surface low will diurnally deepen
    near the NE/CO/KS border area, with a lee trough southward into
    eastern NM and the TX Trans-Pecos.

    ...NE/CO/WY border area to western MN...
    Moderate to large buoyancy will develop ahead of the NE to SD
    portion of the northeast/southwest-oriented cold front by late
    afternoon. Scattered thunderstorms are expected to develop along and
    to the cool side of the front during this time frame as weak
    mid-level height falls overspread the boundary. The belt of strong
    mid-level flow attendant to the northern-stream trough will largely
    lag behind the surface front. This should foster predominantly
    multicell clusters, with the best potential for supercell structures
    in the post-frontal air mass over the central High Plains.
    Widespread thunderstorms are expected during the evening, centered
    on the NE portion of the front, as the KS/OK low-level jet
    strengthens. Isolated to scattered large hail/severe gusts are
    possible, mainly through about dusk, before intensity wanes.

    ...KS to southern High Plains vicinity...
    Pervasive afternoon thunderstorm development is expected to emanate
    from NM/southern CO/far west TX, amid lobes of large-scale ascent
    ahead of multiple impulses embedded with the low-amplitude trough
    over the Southwest. This activity will initially be displaced west
    of the large buoyancy reservoir over western/central OK into north
    TX where mid-level lapse rates will be steep. Modest mid-level flow
    enhancement is expected to accompany initial high-based development,
    likely yielding mainly multicells and transient supercell
    structures. But as convection impinges/develops towards the greater
    MLCAPE plume, convection should intensify. This should result in an
    increasing severe wind threat during the late afternoon to early
    evening through at least western KS to the TX Panhandle. How far
    downstream convection can remain severe later in the evening is
    uncertain given increasing MLCIN with time/eastern extent, greater
    low-level jet focused ascent in NE, and the modest deep-layer shear.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE SOUTHERN
    GREAT PLAINS TO THE MID-MS VALLEY...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered severe thunderstorms are possible from the southern Great
    Plains to the Midwest, mainly from midday to mid-evening Tuesday. A
    couple tornadoes, damaging winds, and large hail may occur.

    ...Synopsis...
    A southern-stream midlevel shortwave trough, initially over the
    central High Plains, will move northeastward into the Mid/Upper MS
    Valley while becoming absorbed into a broad large-scale trough
    across the western/central CONUS. A related cold front extending
    from the Upper Midwest southwestward to a weak lee cyclone over the
    central High Plains will advance east-southeastward across the MS
    Valley and southern Plains through the period. This large-scale
    evolution will result in a belt of moderate-strong midlevel
    southwesterly flow from the southern Plains to the Upper Midwest,
    where a broad/strong low-level jet will overlie a moist,
    destabilizing boundary layer.

    ...Central Texas to the Ozarks...
    Modestly enhanced/focused forcing for ascent preceding the
    southern-stream shortwave trough and weak lee cyclone over the
    southern/central Plains will support numerous bands of
    eastward-moving thunderstorms during the afternoon into the
    evening/overnight hours. While overnight convection and related
    boundary-layer overturning is expected here, diurnal heating of an
    increasingly moist boundary layer (lower 70s dewpoints) will still
    yield moderate surface-based buoyancy. This, combined with 30-40 kt
    of effective shear, will support a mix of supercell clusters and
    organized line segments -- capable of producing scattered severe
    wind gusts, large hail, and possibly a couple embedded tornadoes.
    While there does appear to be a focused/favorable corridor for
    swaths of severe wind with upscale-growing convection (especially
    over the central/southern Plains), early-day storms limit confidence
    in the overall convective evolution -- precluding an upgrade to
    30-percent wind/ENH at this time.

    ...Mid MS Valley to the Upper Midwest...
    Increased cloud coverage across the warm/moist sector with
    northeastern extent will tend to limit instability, especially given
    poor midlevel lapse rates. Nevertheless, ample boundary-layer
    moisture and at least pockets of heating will contribute to
    weak/locally moderate surface-based buoyancy ahead of the cold
    front. Given 40-50 kt of effective shear amid the strong/broad
    low-level jet, convective organization into clusters/lines and some
    supercell structures is expected along/ahead of the cold front.
    Widely scattered damaging winds will be the primary concern with
    this activity, though isolated instances of severe hail will also be
    possible.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN THE SOUTHWEST
    AND EASTERN MIDWEST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe hail and wind are possible from mid-afternoon
    Wednesday through early morning Thursday in parts of the Southwest.
    Isolated damaging winds and marginally severe hail may occur across
    the eastern Midwest from mid-afternoon to evening.

    ...NM to southern CO and west TX...
    A lower-amplitude, southern-stream shortwave trough will accelerate
    from the Lower CO Valley, shifting across the southern Rockies onto
    the south-central High Plains by 12Z Thursday. Widespread
    thunderstorm coverage is likely Wednesday afternoon ahead of this
    trough, centered on the Four Corners region. Despite weak buoyancy
    owing to a surface ridge at 12Z Wednesday across the southern High
    Plains, a belt of moderate mid-level southwesterlies to the
    east-southeast of the trough should yield a few weak supercells.
    These should be focused across northern NM into southern CO during
    the mid-afternoon to early evening. A lone supercell may also
    develop over the Trans-Pecos. Isolated severe hail/wind may occur.

    Low-level moisture return and attendant MUCAPE will increase
    Wednesday night across west TX into far eastern NM. With
    strengthening large-scale ascent as the shortwave trough approaches, regenerative thunderstorm development is anticipated. Strong
    effective bulk shear may foster a corridor of early-morning
    supercells with a primary hazard of isolated large hail. South of
    this corridor, capping will probably inhibit sustained storm
    development. Confidence in reliably highlighting a mesoscale
    corridor is too low to warrant a categorical upgrade.

    ..IL to OH/lower MI...
    Enhanced mid-level southwesterlies initially present over the
    central Great Lakes at 12Z Wednesday will become confined to ON/QC
    as a low-amplitude shortwave trough dampens. Trailing to the south
    of this, a residual belt of at least moderate 700-500 mb winds will
    persist into Wednesday afternoon, along and ahead of a
    weakening/stalling cold front. While mid-level lapse rates will
    remain weak and limit buoyancy, sufficient boundary-layer heating
    will exist for scattered thunderstorms. Marginally severe hail will
    be possible with initial cells, but clusters should dominate given
    the nearly parallel orientation of the front/shear vector. Sporadic
    strong gusts capable of isolated damaging winds may persist into the early/mid-evening, before convection wanes after dusk.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN THE SOUTHWEST
    TO THE SOUTHERN HIGH PLAINS AND EASTERN MIDWEST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe hail and wind are possible from mid-afternoon
    Wednesday through early morning Thursday in parts of the Southwest.
    Isolated damaging winds and marginally severe hail may occur across
    the eastern Midwest from mid-afternoon to evening.

    ...Synopsis...
    A broad, positively tilted trough will dominate much of the weather
    pattern across the CONUS on Wednesday with a base across the
    Southwest and a trough axis extending toward the northern Plains.
    Multiple shortwaves will be embedded within this flow which may
    result in focused regions of thunderstorms on Wednesday. At the
    surface, a stalled front will extend from the Great Lakes to Far
    West Texas. This front will be a focus for storm development
    Wednesday afternoon/evening.

    ...Eastern Midwest...
    Showers and thunderstorms will likely be ongoing along a frontal
    zone from the Ozarks to the western Great Lakes Wednesday morning.
    Convergence will be weak through the day as the front/composite
    outflow slowly shifts east through the period. Weak to potentially
    moderate instability will develop ahead of the front as temperatures
    warm into the upper 70s to low 80s with dewpoints in the 60s.
    Overall forcing will be weak with rising heights aloft and weakening convergence along the frontal zone. Moderate shear will be present
    through much of the day, but it will be oriented parallel to the
    frontal zone which is less favorable for sustained severe storms. An environment featuring weak to moderate instability and moderate
    deep-layer shear will support some isolated large hail and damaging
    wind gusts. However, a more organized threat does not appear likely.


    ...Southwest into Southern High Plains...
    A weak mid-level shortwave trough and associated jet streak will
    move east across the Southwest on Wednesday. Ahead of this feature,
    low-level flow will veer and bring low-level moisture northwestward
    across eastern New Mexico. Weak to potentially moderate instability
    will develop by mid-day with thunderstorms likely initially over the
    higher terrain and eventually shifting east. Moderate shear will
    support the potential for a few supercells capable of large hail and
    severe wind gusts. These storms may be somewhat on the smaller side
    given the weaker buoyancy. However, there is a conditional risk for
    one or two larger/stronger supercells to persist into the evening
    across the Texas Panhandle if moisture/instability can recover ahead
    of the storms moving out of New Mexico.

    Strong shear will be present across southeast New Mexico into Far
    West Texas beneath the mid-level jet streak. If sufficient
    instability can develop far enough west into the higher terrain, a
    few supercells are possible with a primary threat for large hail.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN THE SOUTHERN
    HIGH PLAINS AND OK TO SOUTH KS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered severe thunderstorms are anticipated, mainly from late
    afternoon Thursday into Thursday night from the southern High Plains
    across southern Kansas and Oklahoma. A few tornadoes, large to
    isolated very large hail, and severe gusts are possible.

    ...Southern High Plains to southern KS and OK...
    A cluster of thunderstorms will likely be ongoing at 12Z Thursday
    across a portion of northwest TX within a low-level warm theta-e
    advection regime. As the low-level jet diurnally subsides, this
    activity is expected to diminish. The intensity and areal extent of
    this convection will likely impact later-day frontal location and
    the degree of destabilization to its northeast. The 00Z NAM is much
    more aggressive than guidance consensus at limiting diurnal
    destabilization across KS/OK. To the west of this morning activity,
    robust destabilization is expected across the southern High Plains
    from both increased boundary-layer moisture combined with an
    expansion of steep mid-level lapse rates. A plume of large buoyancy
    with MLCAPE of 2000-3000 J/kg is expected by afternoon.

    With generally neutral mid-level height change, isolated to
    scattered convective development is most likely to focus off the
    higher terrain of the Trans-Pecos and the Raton Mesa during the late
    afternoon to early evening. A few storms are possible in between
    these corridors along the eastern NM dryline, but confidence is low.
    Deep-layer shear profiles will favor discrete supercells where
    convection is sustained. Large hail and damaging winds are possible,
    with tornado potential increasing into early evening as the
    low-level jet strengthens. Long-track supercell potential is evident
    off the Raton Mesa, near the surface warm front, where greater
    hodograph elongation is anticipated. This could support a swath of
    very large hail. Widespread convection is expected within this
    similar zone later into the evening through Thursday night amid
    strengthening warm advection. This should result in a
    forward-propagating MCS to the east-southeast from parts of the TX
    Panhandle to southern KS and OK through early morning Friday. The
    amplitude of severe wind potential will likely be modulated by the
    degree of surface-based instability. Given the likelihood of
    below-normal temperatures Thursday, low confidence exists to warrant
    greater probabilities.

    ...Mid-South to New England...
    A weak cold front will aid in isolated to scattered afternoon
    thunderstorms across a broad swath of the central to northeastern
    states. Large buoyancy will likely be confined to the Mid-South,
    with weak to moderate MLCAPE extending northeastward. This front
    will remain on the periphery of modest mid-level southwesterlies.
    Multicell clusters are expected to dominate in this setup with
    sporadic damaging winds as the primary hazard. Slightly greater
    effective bulk shear in the Mid-South and Northeast should also
    offer a threat for isolated severe hail.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS THE SOUTHERN HIGH
    PLAINS INTO SOUTHERN KANSAS AND THE NORTHERN TWO-THIRDS OF
    OKLAHOMA....

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered severe thunderstorms are anticipated, mainly from late
    afternoon Thursday into Thursday night from the southern High Plains
    across southern Kansas and Oklahoma. A few tornadoes, large to
    isolated very large hail, and severe gusts are possible.

    ...Synopsis...
    A positively tilted broad trough will be present at the beginning of
    the period Thursday with an axis extending from the Southwest to the
    northern Plains. Through the day, the overall pattern will become
    more zonal with moderate mid-level flow across the central/southern
    Plains where confluent mid-level flow will be present. Weak lee
    troughing is expected across the central Plains which will lead to
    northward moisture recovery across the southern/central Plains and
    some sharpening of a frontal zone across the region.

    ...Southern/Central High Plains into Kansas/Oklahoma...
    A cluster of storms will likely be present across West Texas and the
    Texas Panhandle within a region of moderate isentropic ascent. This
    cluster should weaken by late morning/early afternoon. However, some
    12Z guidance (HRRR) has this cluster persisting long enough for
    surface based inhibition to erode and eventual strengthening/new
    development by early to mid-afternoon. The more likely scenario will
    be a decaying MCS with remnant outflow extending into West Texas/the
    southern Texas Panhandle. This region, where the dryline intersects
    remnant outflow, will likely be a focus for supercell development
    Thursday afternoon. Large to potentially very large hail will be
    possible given the steep lapse rates and very strong shear. In
    addition, enhanced shear along this boundary could lead to a locally
    greater tornado threat. Higher probabilities could be necessary in
    later outlooks, but uncertainty in the evolution of early day
    convection and its impact on the afternoon storms limit confidence
    in where this higher probability corridor may be present and the
    nature of destabilization within this zone.

    Temperatures will warm into the mid 90s across the Trans Pecos on
    Thursday with dewpoints in the 60s east of the dryline. This will
    support strong instability and scattered storm development across
    the higher terrain during the afternoon. Moderate shear should
    result in storm organization including a few supercells with a
    primary hazard of large hail.

    Weak to moderate instability is forecast across eastern Colorado and
    into southeast Wyoming on Thursday afternoon. Scattered storms are
    forecast along the dryline during the afternoon. Limited instability
    is a likely primary limiting factor to a greater severe weather
    threat. Where instability is greater, south of a tightening frontal
    zone across southern Kansas greater storm intensity is likely. If
    surface-based instability can develop during the afternoon/evening, surface-based supercells will be possible within this frontal zone
    with a threat for large hail (some very large) and a few tornadoes.
    Even if diurnal destabilization does not support strong supercell
    development, supercell development is likely during the late evening
    as the low-level jet strengthens and isentropic ascent increases
    across the TX/OK Panhandle.

    During this period of strengthening isentropic ascent, expect
    upscale growth into a MCS which is forecast to track east across
    southern Kansas/northern Oklahoma during the overnight period. A
    corridor of severe wind potential will likely exist along the path
    of this MCS Thursday night/early Friday morning.

    ...Ozarks to the Northeast...
    A weak cold front will aid in isolated to scattered afternoon
    thunderstorms across a broad swath of the central to northeastern
    states. Large buoyancy will likely be confined to the Mid-South,
    with weak to moderate MLCAPE extending northeastward. This front
    will remain on the periphery of modest mid-level southwesterlies.
    Multicell clusters are expected to dominate in this setup with
    sporadic damaging winds as the primary hazard. Slightly greater
    effective bulk shear in the Mid-South and Northeast should also
    offer a threat for isolated severe hail.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE SOUTHERN
    HIGH PLAINS TO THE TN/LOWER OH VALLEYS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered severe thunderstorms are expected from the southern High
    Plains to the Tennessee and Lower Ohio Valleys on Friday into Friday
    night. Damaging winds and a couple tornadoes are the main hazards.
    Large to very large hail is possible over the southern High Plains.

    ...Southern Great/High Plains...
    A large MCS will likely be ongoing at 12Z Friday from the Ozark
    Plateau to the OK/TX Red River Valley. Large-scale outflow will
    trail in the wake of this MCS and modify to the north of it as
    diurnal heating ensues. Along and south of the boundary, a confined
    plume of moderate to large buoyancy is expected by late afternoon
    with MLCAPE of 2000-3000 J/kg. North of it, more modest values are
    anticipated between the outflow and a quasi-stationary front.
    Scattered thunderstorms will once again develop along and to the
    cool side of the front over the Raton Mesa into south-central CO,
    with more isolated expected southward along the dryline to the
    Trans-Pecos. A belt of enhanced mid-level westerlies, with
    strengthening of upper-level flow, is anticipated south of a
    shortwave impulse moving into the central High to Great Plains
    through Friday night. This setup should yield favorable hodograph
    elongation for a sustained, long-lived supercell or two evolving
    southeastward from southeast CO. While buoyancy will be more muted,
    it should be sufficient for a significant severe hail and brief
    tornado threat. A few supercells farther south may have a tendency
    to be more outflow-dominant per various CAM depictions, but will
    likewise contain sig-severe hail potential as well.

    The Raton Mesa vicinity convection should grow upscale into another
    MCS Friday night as storm-scale outflows consolidate and with
    strengthening of the southern High Plains low-level jet. Most
    guidance indicates a somewhat delayed/slightly weaker jet than on
    D1. This coupled with signals for negative low-level theta-e
    advection overnight, given the confined plume of rich low-level
    moisture along the prior outflow boundary, lowers confidence in
    highlighting greater coverage of both severe and sig severe wind
    with the MCS as it likely tracks into/across OK.

    ...Mid-South to the TN/Lower OH Valleys...
    A large MCS will likely be ongoing at 12Z Friday from the Ozark
    Plateau to the OK/TX Red River Valley. This MCS should weaken
    somewhat in the late morning, but then intensify by midday and
    persist through the afternoon. A moderately unstable airmass will
    develop ahead of it from the Deep South into at least southern KY
    with MLCAPE of 1500-2500 J/kg common. Deep-layer shear should remain
    modest with southern extent, where multicell clusters will dominate.
    Closer to the parent MCV, enhanced 700-mb westerlies will be present
    and should compensate for weaker destabilization. While isolated
    severe hail is possible, mainly within renewed updrafts along the
    large-scale outflow and redevelopment on the backside of the MCV,
    scattered damaging wind swaths should be the main hazard from KY to
    northern parts of MS/AL/GA.

    Ozarks and arcing into parts of OK. The southern end of this
    convection over the southern Plains will likely weaken during the
    morning with an outflow reinforced boundary becoming oriented across
    southern OK into the southern TX Panhandle/South Plains and
    east-central NM. It is uncertain how far northward this boundary may
    modify northward through the afternoon. Southerly low-level flow
    will maintain a very moist airmass (mid 60s to low 70s F dewpoints)
    near and south of the boundary, with more modest dewpoints (50s to
    low 60s F) further north from eastern CO/northeast NM into southern
    KS/northern OK.

    Moderate westerly flow aloft will persist through the day, with
    neutral height tendencies until late (after 06z) in the period when
    some modest height falls are forecast as a shortwave impulse moves east/southeast across the central Rockies into the central Plains.
    This will aid in the development of a 30-40 kt southwesterly jet
    across the southern High Plains during the overnight hours.

    The expectation is that isolated to widely scattered supercells will
    develop over the higher terrain of southeast CO/eastern NM/far west
    TX in a moist upslope flow regime as strong heating occurs through
    the afternoon. Stronger MLCAPE (up to 3000 J/kg) will be confined to
    the area near the surface outflow where stronger low-level moisture
    will be focused. Elongated/straight hodographs above 2 km and steep
    midlevel lapse rates suggest large to very large hail will be
    possible (greater than 2 inch diameter) in addition to strong gusts.
    There is some potential convection could organize into a southeast
    propagating cluster/MCS moving from southeast CO/northeast NM into
    the northwest OK overnight. Higher outlook probabilities could
    become necessary if confidence in this scenario increases and as
    mesoscale details (location of surface outflows) become better
    resolved.

    ...Ozarks to TN/Lower OH Valleys...

    An MCV tied to ongoing morning MCS over the Ozarks will develop
    eastward into the OH Valley through evening. Morning convection may
    weaken initially before re-invigoration/redevelopment occurs during
    the afternoon as the downstream airmass becomes moderately to
    strongly unstable, aided by strong heating and dewpoints in the
    upper 60s/low 70s F. Damaging gusts will be the main hazard with
    this activity, especially if updraft consolidation occurs within
    storm clusters closer to the MCV where midlevel flow will be
    enhanced, resulting in some forward propagation. Vertical shear will
    be more modest with southward extent, but instability will be
    stronger, supporting at least an isolated severe wind risk into the
    TN Valley vicinity.

    ...Portions of southern New England...

    A weak surface boundary will be draped across portions of New
    England into central OH Friday afternoon. Ahead of this boundary,
    rich low-level moisture (mid 60s to low 70s F) dewpoints will be
    focused in a corridor from eastern PA into MA/CT and southern
    VT/NH/ME. Strong heating within this corridor will result in a
    narrow corridor of moderate destabilization (MLCAPE greater than
    2000 J/kg). Steepened low-level lapse rates also will foster DCAPE
    near 1000 J/kg. Vertical shear will remain modest, around 20-25 kt
    effective shear magnitudes, but strong instability will support
    strong to severe storms capable of damaging gusts through the
    afternoon.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE SOUTHERN
    GREAT PLAINS/OZARKS TO THE SOUTHEAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered severe thunderstorms are expected from the southern Great
    Plains to the Southeast States on Saturday through Saturday evening.
    Swaths of damaging winds, a couple tornadoes, and sporadic large
    hail will be possible.

    ...Southeast to the Lower OH/Mid-MS Valleys...
    A large MCS is expected to be ongoing at 12Z Saturday across the
    OK/AR vicinity, to the south of a low-amplitude shortwave impulse
    over the central Plains. Most guidance maintains these as two
    distinct features with the shortwave moving east into the Midwest
    and an MCV moving east into the TN Valley. The 00Z NAM continues to
    phase these features with substantial amplification of kinematic
    fields downstream. Utilizing guidance consensus, the dominant
    severe-weather potential should first emanate downstream of the
    morning MCS and remnant MCV. Enhanced mid-level westerlies should be
    present atop rich low-level moisture across the TN Valley and
    interior Deep South. Ample buoyancy should diurnally develop south
    and east of the primary MCS outflow, as well as pre-existing
    outflows from extensive D1 convection. Considered an upgrade to a
    level 3-ENH for damaging wind centered on northern MS/AL/GA, but
    have deferred due to mesoscale uncertainties at this time frame.

    A likely separate regime of afternoon to evening storm development
    should be focused ahead of the central Plains to Midwest shortwave
    trough. Primary uncertainty here is the degree of diurnal
    destabilization in the wake of/to the north-northwest of the Mid to
    Deep South MCS. Have expanded level 2-SLGT risk somewhat north
    across the southern MO vicinity, but confidence in overall
    intensity/coverage farther downstream is low.

    ...Southern High Plains to the Mid-South...
    In the wake of the large MCS that is expected to be ongoing at 12Z
    Saturday, guidance remains consistent in suggesting a relative
    down-day in terms of late afternoon storms across the southern High
    Plains. Convection will probably remain quite isolated and initially
    tied to the Raton Mesa and Trans-Pecos vicinities. Isolated
    development is also possible in the TX Big Country at the
    intersection of the dryline and large-scale outflow from the morning
    MCS. Weak low-level warm advection atop this outflow in the evening
    should aid in scattered thunderstorms downstream through the
    Mid-South. With expansion of the southern Plains EML, a mix of
    scattered large hail and isolated damaging winds is possible before
    intensity wanes overnight.

    ...Dakotas vicinity...
    A mid/upper shortwave trough over the Canadian Prairies will
    amplify into the Dakotas/MN through early Sunday. As this occurs,
    the primary surface cyclone should drift east across southern MB. A
    cold front will arc to the south-southwest of this cyclone and move
    southeast across the Dakotas during the afternoon. MLCAPE should
    remain meager with low-quality boundary-layer moisture. But the
    strengthening forcing for ascent should support a band of
    lower-topped convection. Strong to localized severe gusts are
    possible during the late afternoon to early evening when a
    well-mixed boundary layer is prevalent.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF MS/AL/GA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered severe thunderstorms are expected from the southern Great
    Plains to the Southeast States on Saturday through Saturday evening.
    Swaths of damaging winds, a couple tornadoes, and sporadic large
    hail will be possible.

    ...Ozarks/Mid-MS Valley to the OH/TN Valleys into GA...

    An MCS will likely be ongoing Saturday morning across portions of OK
    into Ozarks. The MCV associated with this feature will likely phase
    with a shortwave trough developing east from the central Plains to
    the Mid-MS/Lower OH Valley through the afternoon. This shortwave
    will proceed eastward across the Midwest to the central Appalachians
    by the end of the period. A swath of enhanced mid/upper westerly
    flow associated with the MCV and shortwave trough will overspread
    Mid-South and OH/TN Valleys, with 35-50 kt of flow between 850-700
    mb depicted by most forecast guidance. This enhanced flow aloft will
    overlap a corridor of strong instability (MLCAPE greater than 2500
    J/kg from the Mid-South into the TN Valley). Uncertainty exists in
    stronger destabilization with northward extent into portions of
    MO/IL/KY and vicinity.

    The expectation is that a couple of corridors of primarily damaging
    wind potential will develop on Saturday. The more intense convection
    is expected to develop along the periphery of outflow from the
    morning MCS over Ozark Plateau, with convection developing and
    rapidly intensifying across northern MS eastward into portions of northern/central AL through the afternoon, and perhaps into portions
    of western/central GA by early evening. Forward-propagating clusters
    with potential for bowing segments will produce swaths of damaging
    gusts and perhaps a tornado or two. Isolated large hail also may
    occur with any more discrete cells, mainly early in convective
    evolution.

    Another corridor of severe potential is possible in association with
    the remnant MCV and the ejecting upper shortwave trough moving into
    the Mid-MS/OH Valley during the afternoon. It is uncertain how the
    airmass may recover in the wake of the morning MCS and instability
    could remain somewhat suppressed. Nevertheless, favorable shear for
    organized storms will be present as large-scale ascent increases.
    While storm coverage and evolution is uncertain, some potential for
    damaging gusts, isolated hail, and a tornado or two will exist
    during the afternoon into early evening.

    ...Eastern NC/Southeast VA...

    A weak upper shortwave trough over the central Appalachians will
    shift east across the southern Mid-Atlantic vicinity through early
    evening. This will bring a belt of enhanced west/southwesterly flow
    over the VA/NC Piedmont. Enhanced flow aloft will overlap with a
    seasonally moist/unstable airmass ahead of southeast-advancing cold
    front. Vertically veering wind profiles will foster effective shear
    magnitudes around 30 kt, and transient supercells are possible.
    Strong heating will result in steep low-level lapse rates. Small
    bows and strong downbursts could produce damaging gusts during the
    afternoon.

    ...Southern High Plains into OK/North TX...

    Diurnal convection may be less prevalent across the High Plains on
    Saturday compared to the previous few days in the wake of the
    morning OK MCS and the central Plains upper trough shifting
    eastward. However, isolated storms may still develop in modest
    upslope flow across eastern NM/far west TX. Isolated strong gusts
    and large hail could accompany these storms. Additional storms may
    develop along the residual outflow extending somewhere in the
    vicinity of west-central TX toward the Red River. A very moist and
    unstable airmass will reside in the area. However, vertical shear
    will remain modest and capping may suppress storms coverage.
    Nevertheless, large hail and damaging gusts will be possible with
    any storms that can develop.

    ...Eastern Dakotas into Northwest MN...

    A deepening upper shortwave trough over the Canadian Prairies will
    develop southeast into the northern Plains/Upper Midwest on
    Saturday. At the surface, low pressure will move across northern
    Manitoba through the afternoon and a south/southwest oriented
    trailing cold front will sweep across the Dakotas into MN.
    Boundary-layer moisture will remain modest, limiting quality
    destabilization. Nevertheless, sufficient deep-layer flow coupled
    with strong forcing should support sporadic strong gusts with
    somewhat low-topped/high-based convection.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN OK/NORTHERN
    TX TO THE ARK-LA-TEX...

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS SEPARATELY FROM
    THE SOUTH/LOWER-MID ATLANTIC PIEDMONT/COASTAL PLAIN...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are most likely across Oklahoma and northern
    Texas to the Ark-La-Tex during the late afternoon and evening on
    Sunday. A few tornadoes, destructive wind gusts of 80-100 mph, and
    very large hail are possible.

    ...Synopsis...
    A vertically stacked cyclone will drift southeast in the southern
    MB/northwest ON to northern MN vicinity through early morning
    Monday. The attendant surface cold front should arc from northeast
    IL to the Raton Mesa by 21Z Sunday. Low-amplitude mid/upper
    troughing, with multiple embedded MCVs, will move east from the
    eastern Midwest and TN Valley into the Mid and South Atlantic States
    by Sunday evening.

    ...Southern Great Plains...
    The active severe-weather pattern across the region may peak during
    late afternoon to evening Sunday. With a brief respite on D1 in the
    wake of multiple prior-day MCSs, rather rich low-level moisture will
    become prevalent beneath very steep mid-level lapse rates of 8 to 9
    C/km. MLCAPE will become large to extreme ahead of the cold front
    from southern KS across much of northern TX by Sunday afternoon.

    With weak forcing for large-scale ascent prior to the frontal
    intrusion from the north, there is a minority of guidance, such as
    the 00Z NSSL-ARW and NAM, which suggest early-day storms in the
    eastern Panhandles to along the Red River. Bulk of guidance
    continues to indicate more typical late-afternoon development along
    and just ahead of the cold front. With mid to upper wind profiles
    from the west-northwest, elongated hodographs coupled with the
    strong to extreme instability will favor discrete supercells capable
    of producing very large hail and tornadoes. Consolidating outflows,
    further southward push to the cold front and strengthening of a west
    TX low-level jet will yield increasingly widespread storms that
    should congeal into a forward-propagating, potentially intense MCS.
    This type of setup is conducive to embedded bowing structures
    capable of producing destructive severe gusts and QLCS tornadoes.
    The 18Z RRFS is consistent with this scenario indicating the
    development of an 80-90 kt RIJ. Severe wind and embedded hail
    potential should persist overnight, although likely shrinking in
    spatial extent, into the Ark-La-Tex and Lower MS Valley.

    ...Ozarks to Mid-MS Valley...
    A confined corridor of appreciable buoyancy with a ribbon of richer boundary-layer moisture is anticipated along the cold front that
    will be oriented from northeast to southwest on Sunday afternoon.
    Isolated to scattered thunderstorms should form along the front by
    late afternoon and persist through mid-evening, before likely
    weakening east of the MS River owing to the confined MLCAPE plume. A
    strong mid-level jetlet is expected to be centered across IA to
    southern WI. More moderate deep-layer shear to the south-southeast
    will still be adequate for a few supercells initially that congeal
    into multicell clusters. Scattered large to isolated significant
    severe hail is possible, along with scattered damaging winds and a
    brief tornado.

    ...South to Lower Mid-Atlantic States...
    Robust boundary-layer heating is anticipated along the Atlantic
    Coastal Plain and adjacent Piedmont at least as far north as
    southern VA by Sunday afternoon. This should support moderate
    buoyancy with MLCAPE of 1500-2500 J/kg becoming common. Multiple
    embedded MCVs will support at least scattered afternoon storms
    developing near the higher terrain and spreading east towards the
    coast. Enhanced mid-level westerlies will support transient/weak
    updraft rotation and multicell clustering. Scattered damaging winds
    and isolated severe hail are likely. A tornado or two is also
    possible in the Lower Mid-Atlantic along the primary differential
    heating corridor, where low-level shear may be adequate ahead of a
    central Appalachians MCV.

    by Sunday evening.

    ...Southern Plains...
    Thunderstorm development is expected along the front in Kansas and
    Oklahoma by late morning/early afternoon. South of the front,
    daytime heating should yield a gradient of strong to extreme CAPE
    (3000-5000 MLCAPE) across southwestern OK into northern TX. Initial
    development is likely to be supercelluar, with potential for large
    to very large hail (some 3+ in) and damaging wind given steep lapse
    rates through the profile and ample deep layer shear. A couple of
    tornadoes remain possible where storm interactions and splitting
    cells occur. Through time, mode is likely to become more
    multicelluar before eventual upscale growth along congealing outflow
    to an MCS. As this moves along the gradient southeast across
    southwestern OK into northern TX, potential for significant winds
    (80-100 mph) will be possible.

    Isolated to scattered thunderstorms should form along the northeast

    by Sunday evening.

    ...Southern Plains...
    Thunderstorm development is expected along the front in Kansas and
    Oklahoma by late morning/early afternoon. South of the front,
    daytime heating should yield a gradient of strong to extreme CAPE
    (3000-5000 MLCAPE) across southwestern OK into northern TX. Initial
    development is likely to be supercelluar, with potential for large
    to very large hail (some 3+ in) and damaging wind given steep lapse
    rates through the profile and ample deep layer shear. A couple of
    tornadoes remain possible where storm interactions and splitting
    cells occur. Through time, mode is likely to become more
    multicelluar before eventual upscale growth along congealing outflow
    to an MCS. As this moves along the gradient southeast across
    southwestern OK into northern TX, potential for significant winds
    (80-100 mph) will be possible.

    ...Ozarks to Mid-MS Valley...
    Isolated to scattered thunderstorms should form along the northeast
    to southwest front by late afternoon and persist through
    mid-evening, before likely weakening east of the MS River owing to a
    relatively confined MLCAPE plume. A strong mid-level jetlet is
    expected to be centered across IA to southern WI. More moderate
    deep-layer shear to the south-southeast will still be adequate for a
    few supercells initially that congeal into multicell clusters.
    Scattered large to isolated significant severe hail is possible,
    along with scattered damaging winds and a brief tornado.

    ...South to Lower Mid-Atlantic States...
    Boundary-layer heating is anticipated along the Atlantic
    Coastal Plain and adjacent Piedmont should support MLCAPE of
    1500-2500 J/kg. Multiple embedded MCVs will support at least
    scattered afternoon storms developing near the higher terrain and
    spreading east towards the coast. Enhanced mid-level westerlies will
    support transient/weak updraft rotation and multicell clustering.
    Scattered damaging winds and isolated severe hail are likely. A
    couple of tornadoes are also possible in the Lower Mid-Atlantic
    along the primary differential heating corridor, where low-level
    shear may be adequate ahead of a central Appalachians MCV.

    Day 2 Convective Outlook
    NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
    1247 AM CDT Sun Jun 08 2025

    Valid 091200Z - 101200Z

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN THE SOUTHEAST
    TO THE UPPER OH VALLEY...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered damaging winds, a couple tornadoes, and isolated severe
    hail are possible across the Southeast into the Upper Ohio Valley on
    Monday into Monday evening.

    ...Southeast...
    Below-average confidence exists for this forecast with large spread
    across D2 guidance in the handling of an early-morning MCS and
    attendant MCV in the MS vicinity, amid modest background wind fields
    outside of the MCV influence. Most guidance indicates convection
    should intensify towards midday, along and downstream of the
    large-scale outflow as the boundary layer destabilizes across the
    Deep South. Some guidance indicates convection may redevelop behind
    it and become the primary corridor for damaging winds during the
    afternoon. For now, have maintained a broad level 2-SLGT risk for
    scattered damaging winds to the South Atlantic Coast.

    ...Upper OH Valley...
    A belt of strong mid-level southwesterlies ahead of an upper Great
    Lakes vertically stacked cyclone should generally remain along to
    the cool side of a weak cold front shifting east. Most guidance has
    trended up with the degree of boundary-layer heating ahead of the
    front, which will be required to boost buoyancy amid marginal
    mid-level lapse rates. A corridor of primarily scattered damaging
    winds, along with a tornado and isolated severe hail, may develop
    amid modest MLCAPE of 500-1500 J/kg. With a confined buoyancy plume,
    convection should weaken as it spreads towards the northern
    Appalachians on Monday evening.

    ...NM/TX...
    An intense and large MCS on Sunday should drive a composite
    outflow/cold front into central/south TX, with a meridional arc over
    central to western NM. Scattered to numerous afternoon storms will
    probably remain tied to the higher terrain of northern/central NM
    with an isolated severe hail/wind threat amid marginal deep-layer
    shear. Isolated storms are also possible near the front from the
    southern Trans-Pecos through southeast TX with a severe hail/wind
    threat. Isolated elevated convection may form with weak low-level
    warm theta-e advection north of the front on Monday evening/night.
    Sufficient effective bulk shear and elevated buoyancy may exist for
    a few storms capable of severe hail.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE SOUTHEAST
    STATES INTO THE TN AND OH VALLEYS...AND ACROSS THE SOUTHERN HIGH
    PLAINS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered damaging winds, a couple tornadoes, and isolated severe
    hail are possible across the Southeast into the Upper Ohio Valley on
    Monday into Monday evening.

    ...Mid-South/Lower MS Valley into the Southeast...
    While there is some uncertainty regarding the intensity/organization
    and location of the overnight MCS early Monday morning, the general
    consensus within the guidance places its associated vorticity max
    and surface low over the eastern vicinity. Expectation is then for
    this low and vorticity max to continue eastward into the moist and
    moderately buoyant airmass downstream across the Southeast.
    Thunderstorms appear likely in the vicinity of these features,
    including well downstream during the afternoon as boundary layer
    destabilizes and along the trailing composite outflow that will
    likely maintain its integrity. Damaging gusts will be the primary
    risk, particularly across central MS/AL where a corridor of greater
    severe potential may materialize. Uncertainty (primarily related to
    limited predictability of the system's speed) in this corridor
    remains too high to outline any higher probabilities with this
    outlook, but an upgrade may be needed in later outlooks.

    ...OH/TN Valleys...
    A plume of moderate to high PWs is forecast extend along the frontal
    zone from the Mid-South northeastward through the middle OH Valley
    Monday morning. A shortwave trough is expected to progress through
    the base of a stacked cyclone moving from the Upper Midwest into
    the Upper Great Lakes. This shortwave will encourage an eastward
    push to the cold front, while also contributing to strengthening
    mid-level flow across the region. The stronger winds will likely be
    confined to the mid/upper OH Valley, and mostly behind the front,
    with the most likely area of some overlap over OH and PA. However,
    this region will be displaced north of the better buoyancy, which is anticipated farther south over KY and TN. This displacement should
    temper the overall storm severity, but occasionally strong to severe
    are still possible throughout this entire corridor. Scattered
    damaging winds will be the primary risk, although lower-probability
    tornado and isolated severe hail risks also exist.

    ...Southern High Plains...
    The airmass across the region will likely begin the period behind
    the outflow of an extensive overnight MCS. However, these relatively
    cool and dry conditions are expected to modify quickly amid strong
    heating. A sharpening lee trough will also encourage backing
    low-level flow throughout the day, from northerly to easterly (or
    even southeasterly), with some low-level moisture advection
    possible. These factors could allow convection that initially
    develops over the higher terrain to persist eastward/southeastward
    into more of the High Plains, with an attendant threat for strong
    gusts. The modifying outflow could act as a favorable corridor for
    forward propagation and increase damaging gust potential during the
    evening.

    ...Southwest/Central/Southeast TX...
    The outflow of an extensive overnight MCS will likely arc from
    northern LA through central TX into southwest TX early Monday
    morning. Isolated thunderstorms are possible along this boundary as
    it gradually shifts southward throughout the day. Highest
    thunderstorm coverage is expected across southeast TX, with warm
    low/mid-levels and associated capping should limit the overall
    thunderstorm coverage westward. Isolated hail and damaging gusts are
    possible with any storms that develop.

    ...Northwest TX...
    Isolated elevated convection may form with weak low-level warm
    theta-e advection north of the front on Monday. Sufficient effective
    bulk shear and elevated buoyancy may exist for a few storms capable
    of severe hail.

    Valid 101200Z - 111200Z

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN THE TX
    TRANS-PECOS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    The most likely corridor for a few severe storms, primarily in the
    form of large hail, is across the Texas Trans-Pecos during the late
    afternoon Tuesday. Isolated severe thunderstorms are also possible
    on Tuesday into Tuesday evening along parts of the East Coast, from
    southeast New Mexico to south Louisiana, and in parts of the
    Northwest.

    ...Southeast NM and southwest TX...
    Strong heating is anticipated over the region Tuesday along the
    western periphery of seasonably rich low-level moisture. Combined
    with steep mid-level lapse rates, large buoyancy with MLCAPE of
    2500-3000 J/kg is expected. A low-amplitude shortwave trough will
    approach the region during the afternoon. In combination with
    diurnal orographic ascent, scattered to eventually widespread
    thunderstorm development is anticipated. A narrow belt of moderate
    mid-level westerlies, centered on the Trans-Pecos, should support a
    few supercells in the late afternoon. Large hail will likely be the
    primary hazard with sub-10 percent coverage of very large hail
    possible. Outside of the Trans-Pecos, sporadic severe wind/hail will
    be possible with low confidence on organized upscale growth along
    the Rio Grande on Tuesday evening.

    ...South-central TX to south LA...
    A loosely-organized MCS should be ongoing in south-central TX at 12Z
    Tuesday. Within a weakly forced and nebulous large-scale pattern,
    guidance has a fair amount of spread with subsequent evolution
    through the day Tuesday. It is plausible that intensification may
    occur by midday along the residual outflow, along with downstream
    development towards a quasi-stationary front in LA. Deep-layer shear
    will be modest, especially outside of any localized enhancement near
    the remnant MCV. Confidence is too low to warrant greater than level
    1-MRGL risk probabilities at this time, but isolated severe
    wind/hail remains possible.

    ...Mid/South Atlantic Coast...
    A broad mid/upper trough will extend from eastern ON to the OH/TN
    Valleys at 12Z Tuesday. The southern extent of this trough will
    gradually dampen through the period with slowly rising mid-level
    heights. A broad rain swath with embedded thunderstorms is expected
    to be ongoing from the Mid-Atlantic northward, where stronger
    deep-layer flow will exist. Diurnal destabilization appears quite
    limited and locally strong gusts might occur along the southern
    periphery of this morning activity.

    Isolated thunderstorms are possible into the afternoon along parts
    of the South Atlantic Coastal Plain. Despite ample boundary-layer moisture/heating, poor mid-level lapse rates will limit updraft
    intensity and overall convective coverage. Locally strong gusts
    capable of wind damage will be possible with any sustained storms.
    Coverage is likely to be less compared to recent days.

    ...Northwest...
    Low-amplitude mid/upper ridging will break down as a shortwave
    trough progresses into northern CA/southwest OR by 12Z Wednesday. As
    this process occurs, mid to upper-level flow will become more
    westerly with moderate speed shear across the northern Rockies.
    Despite weak buoyancy, scattered high-based thunderstorms are
    expected. The strongest of these may attain low-end supercell
    structure from western to south-central MT during the late afternoon
    to early evening. Across southern OR, strengthening large-scale
    ascent with approach of the shortwave trough should support
    scattered late afternoon to evening storms. High-based multicells to
    a couple brief supercells are possible. Isolated, marginally severe
    wind/hail events may occur in both regimes.

    ...SUMMARY...
    The most likely corridor for severe storms on Tuesday, primarily in
    the form of large hail, is across far southeast New Mexico and the
    Texas Trans-Pecos during the late afternoon through early evening.
    Isolated severe thunderstorms are also possible on Tuesday into
    Tuesday evening along parts of the East Coast, from southeast New
    Mexico to south Louisiana, and in parts of the Northwest.

    ...Southeast NM and Far West/Southwest TX...
    Strong heating is anticipated over the region Tuesday along the
    western periphery of seasonably rich low-level moisture in vicinity
    of a front and weak surface wave. Combined with steep mid-level
    lapse rates, large buoyancy with MLCAPE of 2500-3000 J/kg is
    expected. An upstream low-amplitude shortwave trough near/north of
    the International Border will approach the region during the
    afternoon. In combination with diurnal orographic ascent, scattered
    to eventually widespread thunderstorm development is anticipated. A
    narrow belt of moderate mid-level westerlies, centered on the
    Trans-Pecos, should support a few supercells in the late afternoon.
    Large hail will likely be the primary hazard. Some degree of upscale
    growth may occur by evening toward the Rio Grande vicinity, with at
    least some severe hail/wind persisting east-southeastward.

    ...South-central TX to south LA...
    It still seems that a loosely-organized MCS may be ongoing in
    central TX at 12Z Tuesday. Within a weakly forced and nebulous
    large-scale pattern, guidance has a fair amount of spread with
    subsequent evolution through the day Tuesday. It is plausible that intensification may occur by midday along the residual outflow,
    along with downstream development towards a quasi-stationary front
    into LA. Deep-layer shear will be modest, especially outside of any
    localized enhancement near the remnant MCV. Confidence remains too
    low to warrant greater than level 1-MRGL risk probabilities at this
    time, but isolated severe wind/hail remains possible.

    ...Mid/South Atlantic Coast...
    A broad mid/upper trough will extend from eastern Ontario to the
    OH/TN Valleys at 12Z Tuesday. The southern extent of this trough
    will gradually dampen through the period with slowly rising
    mid-level heights. A broad rain swath with embedded thunderstorms is
    expected to be ongoing from the Mid-Atlantic northward, where
    stronger deep-layer flow will exist. Diurnal destabilization appears
    quite limited and locally strong gusts might occur along the
    southern periphery of this morning activity.

    Isolated thunderstorms are possible into the afternoon along parts

    intensity and overall convective coverage. Locally strong gusts
    capable of wind damage will be possible with any sustained storms.
    Coverage is likely to be less compared to recent days.

    ...Northwest and Northern Rockies...
    Low-amplitude mid/upper ridging will break down as a shortwave
    trough progresses into northern CA/southwest OR by 12Z Wednesday. As
    this occurs, mid to upper-level flow will become more westerly with
    moderate speed shear across the northern Rockies. Despite weak
    buoyancy, scattered high-based thunderstorms are expected. The
    strongest of these may attain low-end supercell structure from
    western to south-central MT during the late afternoon to early
    evening. Across southern OR, strengthening large-scale ascent with
    approach of the shortwave trough should support scattered late
    afternoon to evening storms. High-based multicells to a couple brief
    supercells are possible. Isolated, marginally severe wind/hail
    events may occur in both regimes.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER PARTS OF
    THE NORTHERN ROCKIES...TEXAS...AND ACROSS IOWA AND VICINITY...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe thunderstorms are possible Wednesday over parts of
    the Northwest and Intermountain West, the Corn Belt, and Texas.

    ...Synopsis and Discussion...
    On Wednesday, modest westerly flow aloft will stretch from CA into
    the northern Plains, and from the Great Lakes into the Northeast.
    Meanwhile, a weak upper wave will remain nearly stationary over the
    southern Plains providing cool temperatures aloft. An embedded wave
    will move quickly across southern ID and into the northern High
    Plains into Thursday morning, and will interact with a developing
    lee trough during the afternoon. Low-level moisture will be
    plentiful across the central and southern Plains, and especially
    from TX eastward across the Gulf Coast with 70s F dewpoints. A moist
    air mass will also exist across the Carolinas, supporting daytime
    instability but well south of the upper trough.

    ...Northern Rockies...
    Storms will develop relatively early in the day from eastern OR
    across ID as the shortwave trough moves over the area. Scattered
    storms will develop and spread quickly eastward into parts of WY and
    MT, with areas of strong outflow expected. Scattered severe gusts
    may occur. Overall deep-layer shear appears most favorable from
    southern ID into western WY, resulting in a few cells capable of
    hail as well as strong gusts.

    ...Central to southern TX...
    Moderate instability will develop over much of central into eastern
    and southern TX with a moist surface air mass beneath seasonably
    cool midlevel temperatures. Little in the way of a focus will exist
    except for possible antecedent outflows from early storms over North
    TX. However, lack of any capping and diurnal considerations will
    lead to scattered storms, with some clusters producing locally
    strong wind or isolated hail during the day.

    ...IA...northern IL and parts of surrounding states...
    A stationary front will exist across this region, with strong
    heating aiding destabilization. The glancing upper trough may aid
    lift, and forecast soundings show light but veering winds with
    height and marginal deep-layer shear. Scattered storms producing
    hail appear most probable during the late afternoon and evening,
    progressing eastward out of IA and into IL/WI and perhaps southern
    Lake MI late.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS TEXAS
    INTO LOUISIANA...THE UPPER MIDWEST/CORN BELT...AND NORTHERN
    ROCKIES/HIGH PLAINS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated severe thunderstorms are possible Wednesday over parts of
    the Northern Rockies and northern High Plains, the Upper
    Midwest/Corn Belt, as well as Texas to western Louisiana.

    ...Central to southern Texas...
    Ahead of a weak mid-level trough, moderate instability should
    develop over much of central into eastern/southern Texas with a
    moist surface air mass beneath seasonably cool mid-level
    temperatures. However, specifics are complicated by the potential of
    lingering early-day convection and outflows. Some guidance would
    suggest that convection/MCV-related enhancement to the flow field
    may occur and linger much of the day, a scenario in which a Slight
    Risk could be warranted into the Day 1 time frame pending corridors
    of more certain destabilization across central/east Texas. This flow enhancement could influence the potential for supercells and
    possibly a tornado risk within a moist environment. Scattered
    storms, including some clusters, can otherwise be expected with hail
    and wind possible.

    ...Upper Midwest/Corn Belt...
    A west/east-oriented stationary front will exist across this region,
    with strong heating aiding moderate to locally strong
    destabilization along and south of the boundary. The glancing
    influence of a shortwave trough may contribute to storm development
    as the boundary layer otherwise destabilizes Wednesday afternoon.
    Effective shear of 30-35 kt should generally exist near the front,
    potentially allowing for a few supercells and more prevalent
    multicells. Scattered storms producing hail/damaging wind appear
    most probable during the late afternoon and evening, progressing
    eastward out of Iowa toward the Illinois/Wisconsin border vicinity.
    A relatively narrow/confined Slight Risk could ultimately be
    warranted in the Day 1 time frame.

    ...Northern Rockies to Northern High Plains...
    Storms are expected to develop relatively early in the day from
    eastern Oregon across Idaho as a shortwave trough moves over the
    region. Scattered storms will develop and spread quickly eastward
    into parts of Wyoming and Montana, with areas of strong outflow
    expected. Scattered severe gusts may occur. Overall deep-layer shear
    appears most favorable from southern Idaho into western Wyoming,
    resulting in a few cells capable of hail as well as strong wind
    gusts. Additional severe storm development is expected by Wednesday
    late afternoon/early evening into the northern High Plains including
    near/east of the Big Horns.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER PARTS OF
    THE NORTHERN PLAINS AND TEXAS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Widely scattered strong to severe storms are expected Thursday
    across parts of the central to northern Plains and Upper Midwest.
    Isolated strong to severe storms may also occur over parts of Texas.

    ...Synopsis...
    The stronger flow aloft will remain over northern portions of the
    CONUS on Thursday, with a low-amplitude wave moving across the
    northern Plains. South of there, a weak upper low will move from TX
    toward the lower to middle MS Valley late.

    At the surface, a boundary will stretch roughly from SD eastward to
    the Mid Atlantic, with a large area of mid to upper 60s F across
    much of the plains and Midwest. A weak is forecast over southwest
    NE, with an inverted trough extending northeastward toward southern
    MN.

    ...Northern Plains...
    Early day rain/thunderstorms will shift north across eastern SD and
    southern MN during the day in a zone of warm advection, with air
    mass recovery to the southwest across NE and western KS/eastern CO.
    Strong heating and southeast surface winds will yield storms moving
    off the Front Range, with locally strong gusts or marginal hail.
    Robust convection will form within the surface trough over NE,
    extending into southeast SD/western IA/southwest MN as well, with
    more of a variety of storms expected. Both damaging winds and hail
    are expected. Shear will be marginal but an MCS cannot be ruled out
    overnight.

    ...Much of southern/central/eastern TX...
    Substantial moisture and instability will again develop with 70s F
    dewpoints and cool temperatures aloft. Clusters of storms are likely
    to be ongoing roughly along or east of I-35 much of the day, and
    areas of strong wind gusts may occur. West of there, stronger
    heating will occur over southwest TX. Shear will be weak but
    multicellular convection capable of marginal hail or localized
    downbursts may occur.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PARTS OF THE CENTRAL/NORTHERN PLAINS AND UPPER MIDWEST...AND ALSO FROM TX INTO
    THE LOWER MS VALLEY...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Widely scattered strong to severe storms are expected Thursday
    across parts of the central to northern Plains and Upper Midwest.
    Isolated strong to severe storms may also occur over parts of Texas
    into the lower Mississippi Valley.

    ...Synopsis...
    A low-amplitude mid/upper-level shortwave trough will move across
    the northern Plains into the Upper Midwest on Thursday. A deeper
    upstream shortwave trough will begin to influence the Pacific
    Northwest. A weak mid/upper-level low is forecast to drift
    north-northeastward across eastern portions of the southern Plains.


    At the surface, a lee cyclone may gradually deepen during the day
    across the central High Plains, while a weak frontal wave is
    forecast to develop and move eastward from southern SD into
    southwest MN.

    ...Eastern SD/southern MN into northeast NE/northern IA...
    Elevated convection and possibly a MCV/remnant MCS may move across
    parts of the Dakotas into MN during the morning. In the wake of the
    morning convection, an outflow-influenced surface front is forecast
    to move northward across northern NE/IA into parts of eastern SD and
    southern MN. While deep-layer flow will be relatively modest, a
    localized zone of conditional supercell potential could eventually
    evolve near and just north of the front, where increasing low-level
    moisture will support moderate buoyancy and surface winds will be
    favorably backed.

    If any supercells can develop within this regime, then hail,
    damaging winds, and perhaps a tornado would all be possible. With
    the primary shortwave trough generally forecast to dampen with time
    and be displaced somewhat north of the more favorable environment,
    coverage of diurnal supercell development (if any) is uncertain.
    Greater severe probabilities may eventually be needed if confidence
    in this scenario increases. Otherwise, storm coverage may generally
    increase north of the front from late afternoon into the evening
    within a low-level warm-advection regime, with some clustering
    possible as convection spreads across southern MN Thursday night.

    ...Parts of the central/northern High Plains...
    High-based convection is expected to develop Thursday afternoon
    across parts of northeast CO/eastern WY. Deep-layer flow will be
    rather weak, but modestly veering wind profiles and sufficient
    buoyancy could support localized hail and strong to severe gusts
    with initial development. With time, an outflow-driven cluster could
    spread into the NE Panhandle, with potentially a somewhat greater
    concentration of strong/severe gusts.

    ...Southern/central/east TX into the ArkLaMiss region...
    Extensive convection will likely be ongoing Thursday morning across
    parts of central/east TX. Rich low-level moisture, moderate
    buoyancy, and modestly enhanced low/midlevel flow could support at
    least an isolated threat for a tornado, locally damaging gusts, and
    perhaps some hail with the morning convection.

    Storm evolution during the day is uncertain, but in general, an arc
    of convection may spread northeastward toward the ArkLaTex/ArkLaMiss
    vicinities during the afternoon, in conjunction with the primary mid/upper-level low or any MCVs that develop. Locally damaging wind
    and possibly a tornado could accompany the storms within this
    regime.

    Some redevelopment is also possible along the trailing outflow
    during the afternoon and evening into south-central TX, with a
    threat of localized hail and wind-damage.

    ...Western/central PA into the northern Mid Atlantic...
    Moderate destabilization is expected Thursday afternoon from parts
    of western/central PA into the northern Mid Atlantic, along and
    south of a cold front. This region will be on the southern periphery
    of stronger west-northwesterly flow aloft, and with sufficient
    deep-layer shear for organized convection. However, with large-scale
    ascent generally displaced well to the north and very weak
    convergence expected along the front, potential for sustained deep
    convection currently appears limited. Severe probabilities may be
    needed if a stronger signal for robust development emerges with
    time.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM SOUTHERN
    MONTANA INTO MUCH OF THE CENTRAL HIGH PLAINS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered severe storms may occur Friday from Montana into the
    central Plains, with hail and corridors of damaging winds possible.

    ...Synopsis...
    A shortwave trough will move across the Pacific Northwest during the
    day and into the northern Rockies late, with an upper ridge building
    from northern Mexico into AZ/NM. Meanwhile, modest westerly flow
    aloft will exist over the Northeast as a weak disturbance moves
    across AR/MO and into the mid MS/Lower OH Valleys.

    At the surface, low pressure will exist across the Great Basin with
    a southwest flow regime south of the upper trough, with a lee trough
    along the length of the High Plains. Increasing boundary layer
    theta-e will spread into the High Plains via southeast winds,
    resulting in an elongated area of scattered severe storm potential
    during the afternoon and evening.

    ...MT into the central High Plains...
    Strong heating will occur over much of west-central/southwest MT,
    and extending into WY CO and NM, as well as western NE/KS/TX-OK
    Panhandles, resulting in steep lapse rates. Meanwhile, southeast
    surface winds will bring moisture northwestward into the High
    Plains, with a large area of moderate instability developing.

    Storms are expected to form by 21Z over western MT, with additional
    storms into eastern WY/northeast CO. These will likely produce hail
    and areas of damaging wind. Other isolated storms are likely all the
    way south into eastern NM/western TX.

    Elsewhere, strong instability and ample moisture may result in
    scattered strong storms over much of MO, AR, LA, MS and vicinity,
    though the likelihood of ongoing early storms and outflows results
    in low predictability at this time. Locally strong gusts may occur.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM SOUTHERN
    MONTANA INTO MUCH OF THE CENTRAL HIGH PLAINS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered severe storms may occur Friday from Montana into the
    central Plains, with hail and corridors of damaging winds possible.

    ...Synopsis...
    A weak shortwave trough will move through the Ozarks into the mid
    Mississippi Valley region on Friday. This feature will likely lose
    amplitude with time. Farther west, a stronger shortwave trough will
    move into the northern Rockies by late afternoon/evening while
    surface ridging will build into the Southwest and southern High
    Plains.

    ...Montana into the central High Plains...
    Strong surface heating and a lee trough promoting moisture influx
    into these regions will lead to an elongated region of greater
    confidence in severe storm coverage from Montana into the northern
    Texas Panhandle. With the trough approaching the northern Rockies,
    the highest storm coverage will likely be in Montana into parts of
    Wyoming. Effective shear in these areas (particularly near the Big
    Horns) will range from 45-55 kts. Large hail, including some
    potential for stones around 2 inches in diameter, and severe wind
    gusts are probable. Farther to the south, storm coverage will
    gradually become more limited, especially away from terrain
    initiation sources. Even so, clusters of initial supercells or small
    linear segments will pose some risk for large hail and severe wind
    gusts as well.

    ...Mid-Atlantic...
    Along the southern fringe of stronger mid-level flow, a few storms
    are possible along a weak surface boundary near the
    Maryland/Pennsylvania border. Some model guidance shows a weak
    shortwave perturbation moving into the region, but timing and
    strength of the feature are variable. Mid-level lapse rates are
    expected to be weak and buoyancy will largely depend on surface
    heating. Given the uncertainty in cloud cover, it appears any severe
    will be conditional. A few stronger storms are possible and trends
    in guidance will be monitored with regard to areas of sufficient
    surface heating.

    ...Southeast/Mid-South/Lower Ohio Valley...
    Scattered thunderstorms are likely near and ahead of the weak
    upper-level shortwave trough that will be slowly lifting northeast
    through the Ozarks. Areas of precipitation and cloud cover are
    likely during the morning/afternoon. This increases the uncertainty
    as to where the greatest amount of destabilization will occur. Some
    modest flow enhancement appears probable for the Mid-South/lower
    Ohio Valley vicinity, though mid-level winds will weaken through the
    day. Greater buoyancy is expected in Mississippi, but deep-layer
    shear will be much weaker. There is certainly potential for isolated
    wind damage from the stronger storms tomorrow afternoon, but
    confidence in highlighting an area of greater coverage of organized
    severe storms is low at this point.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
    THE CENTRAL AND NORTHERN HIGH PLAINS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered severe storms capable of large hail and isolated damaging
    wind gusts will be possible across parts of the central and northern
    High Plains Saturday afternoon and evening. Marginally severe storms
    will also be possible in parts of southern and central Plains.

    ...Central and Northern High Plains...
    A mid-level ridge will move eastward across the north-central U.S.
    on Saturday. In the wake of the ridge, a subtle shortwave trough
    will move into the central and northern High Plains. At the surface,
    a moist airmass will be present across much of the Great Plains.
    Upslope flow will be in place over the central and northern High
    Plains, where a pocket of moderate to strong instability is forecast
    to develop Saturday afternoon. As surface temperatures warm during
    the day, convection will first initiate in the higher terrain from
    east-central Montana southeastward to the Black Hills. From this
    convection, scattered thunderstorms are expected to develop and move
    eastward into the lower elevations of the central and northern High
    Plains.

    An impressive thermodynamic environment is forecast to be in place
    by Saturday afternoon from northeast Wyoming into western Nebraska,
    where model forecasts suggest MLCAPE could peak around 4000 J/kg.
    Near the instability maximum, 700-500 mb lapse rates are forecast to
    be near 8 C/km. In spite of this, forecast soundings in the central
    and northern High Plains have a capping inversion in place during
    the afternoon. This should keep the initial convective development
    confined to the higher terrain of southeast Montana, northeast
    Wyoming and southwestern South Dakota. Forecasts soundings late
    Saturday afternoon in this area mostly have 0-6 km shear in the 30
    to 40 knot range, mainly due to mid-level speed shear. The shear,
    combined with the moderate to strong instability, will likely
    support a severe threat. Supercells should be capable of isolated
    large hail and severe wind gusts. The threat is expected to persist
    into the mid to late evening, as low-level flow increases.

    ...Southern and Central Plains...
    A mid-level ridge will move eastward across the Great Plains on
    Saturday. At the surface, a moist airmass will be located across
    much of the southern and central Plains. As surface temperatures
    warm during the day, moderate instability is forecast to develop
    throughout much of this airmass. Due to the presence of the ridge,
    large-scale ascent will remain weak in most areas. In spite of this,
    isolated thunderstorms may still develop in areas where low-level
    convergence and surface heating are maximized, and further west in
    the higher terrain of the central and southern High Plains. Forecast
    soundings late Saturday afternoon across the southern and central
    Plains generally have large surface-temperature dewpoint spreads
    with steep lapse rates. This environment will also have sufficient
    deep-layer shear for isolated severe storms. Hail and marginally
    severe wind gusts are expected to be the primary threats.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM CENTRAL
    MONTANA INTO THE CENTRAL HIGH PLAINS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered severe storms capable of large hail and damaging wind
    gusts will be possible across parts of the central and northern High
    Plains Saturday afternoon and evening. Additional severe storms will
    also be possible in parts of southern and central Plains.

    ...Synopsis...
    The upper-level trough in the eastern U.S. will weaken during the
    day on Saturday. Ridging will become more prevalent within the
    Plains and Southwest. Within the Northwest and northern Rockies,
    troughing will remain in place. A moist airmass will be in place
    underneath the upper ridge and will continue to move north and
    westward given the presence of lee troughing.

    ...Montana into central High Plains...
    With the upper-level trough remaining situated within the
    Northwest/eastern Pacific, moderate mid-level winds and surface
    troughing will remain in these regions. Moisture should continue to
    advect into the High Plains/central Montana. Effective shear of
    40-55 kts will again support supercell development/maintenance at
    least early in the convective cycle. Large to very large hail and
    severe winds will be possible. One or more clusters may also evolve
    through the afternoon and into the evening. With the low-level jet
    focusing into Nebraska/South Dakota, clusters could persist a bit
    farther east in these locations. Severe gusts would be the primary
    threat with that activity.

    ...Central/southern Plains...
    The overall evolution of convection is less certain in these areas.
    Some guidance continues to show some potential for activity from
    overnight Friday to continue into Saturday. Whether this activity
    could reinvigorate as the very moist airmass destabilizes during the
    day is not clear. With shear decreasing with eastward extent, such a
    scenario would largely be dependent on mesoscale cold pool dynamics.
    For now, marginal severe wind probabilities will be maintained over
    much of Kansas/Oklahoma in order to account for this conditional
    outcome.

    Storms are more likely to initiate within the higher terrain or
    surface lee trough during the afternoon. However, weaker mid-level
    ascent with southern extent suggests storm coverage will be more
    isolated in the southern High Plains/Trans-Pecos/Big Bend. Isolated
    severe gusts and large hail are possible with these cells/clusters.

    ...Eastern South Dakota/far western Minnesota...
    A modest increase in the low-level jet during the evening/overnight
    may promote widely scattered to scattered storms along a boundary.
    Marginal deep-layer shear and steep mid-level lapse rates would
    support some risk for marginally severe hail.

    ...Southeast into Mid-Atlantic...
    A nebulous upper-level trough will continue to slowly progress east.
    This feature will likely weaken with time. The moist airmass across
    these areas may support pockets of larger MLCAPE (from around 1500
    J/kg farther east, increasing to near 3000 farther west). With poor
    lapse rates, ongoing precipitation/cloud cover, and weak mid-level
    winds, organized severe storms do not appear likely. Isolated wind
    damage may occur where locally greater surface heating occurs.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
    THE NORTHERN AND CENTRAL HIGH PLAINS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered severe storms, capable of large hail and severe wind
    gusts, are expected on Sunday in parts of the northern and central
    High Plains. Additional strong to severe storms are possible in
    parts of North Carolina and Virginia.

    ...Central and Northern Plains...
    A mid-level ridge will remain in place across the High Plains on
    Sunday, as a subtle shortwave trough moves into the central and
    northern Rockies. At the surface, a low is forecast to deepen over
    Wyoming as upslope easterly flow remains in place across much of the
    central and northern Plains. Across the moist airmass, surface
    dewpoints will be mostly in the 60s F, which will contribute to the
    development of moderate to strong instability by afternoon.
    Convection is expected to initiate in the higher terrain of the
    northern High Plains, with storms moving eastward into the lower
    elevations during the mid to late afternoon. Large-scale ascent
    should remain relatively weak, favoring discrete modes.

    Forecast soundings near the instability axis at 21z have 0-6 km
    shear around 40 knots which will support supercell development. In
    addition to the shear, 700-500 mb lapse rates are forecast to be
    very steep in the 8 to 9 C/km range. This will be favorable for
    large hail with supercells. Hailstones greater than 2 inches in
    diameter will be possible within the more intense cores. A
    wind-damage threat is also expected to develop. Low-level flow will
    increase during the early evening, which will help maintain a severe
    threat.

    Further to the east into parts of the mid Missouri Valley, and
    southward into the southern Plains, convective coverage is expected
    to remain very isolated due to warm air aloft and the presence of
    the mid-level ridge. In spite of this, some convection will be
    possible as low-level convergence increases during the day along
    pre-existing outflow boundaries. Mid-level directional shear is
    evident on forecast soundings. This could be sufficient for some
    cell organization and a severe threat. Hail and strong wind gusts
    would be possible.

    ...Northern North Carolina/Southern Virginia...
    A subtle mid-level shortwave trough is forecast to move into the
    southern and central Appalachians on Sunday. At the surface, a lee
    low is forecast to develop over central North Carolina. Surface
    dewpoints will be in the upper 60 to mid 70s F from the Appalachian
    foothills to the North Carolina and Virginia coasts. Topographic
    forcing in the Appalachians and large-scale ascent ahead of the
    approaching trough will support scattered convective initiation
    around midday. These storms will move eastward into the lower
    elevations during the afternoon. As low-level lapse rates become
    steep in the mid to late afternoon, a few marginally severe wind
    gusts will be possible with the stronger multicells.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
    THE NORTHERN AND CENTRAL PLAINS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered severe storms, capable of large hail and severe wind
    gusts, are expected on Sunday in parts of the northern and central
    High Plains. Additional strong to severe storms are possible in
    parts of North Carolina and Virginia.

    ...Synopsis...
    An upper-level high will remain in place across the central/northern
    Plains into the northern Rockies on D2/Sunday. Westerly flow aloft
    will move across the ridge, with a few shortwave impulses rotating
    through the flow. Afternoon thunderstorm development is expected
    from the Northern Rockies southward across the dryline in the
    central high Plains. A surface low is expected to deepen across
    Wyoming through the period, lifting northward across the Dakotas.

    ...Central and Northern Plains...
    As the surface low across Wyoming deepens, east to southeasterly
    flow will continue across the central and northern Plains. Dew
    points in the low to mid 60s will be common, allowing for strong to
    moderate instability to develop by the afternoon. Upslope flow
    across the northern Rockies and forcing for ascent with shortwaves
    rounding the ridge will allow for scattered thunderstorm development
    across the high terrain spreading into the lower elevations through
    the later afternoon/evening. Generally straight hodograph profiles
    will support initial supercell modes before clustering and upscale
    growth occurs into the late afternoon. Given steep lapse rates and
    ample deep layer shear, large to very large hail (some 2-3"+) will
    be possible.

    As the surface low deepens into the afternoon, mass response will
    occur with an increase in a southerly low-level jet into the western
    Dakotas. CAM guidance shows some uncertainty in evolution of storms
    as they move eastward out of Montana. There is consistent signal
    that an MCS will travel eastward across some portions of the
    Dakotas, with potential for strong to significant winds (60-75+
    mph). Should a more favorable corridor become established, an
    upgrade to higher probabilities may be needed.

    ...Southern/South-Central Plains into the Missouri Valley...
    An MCS will likely be ongoing across portions of Oklahoma into
    northern Texas early in the period. Residual outflow in association
    with this will set up across portion of north-central Texas into
    Missouri. Convective re-development may be somewhat inhibited due to
    warm air aloft and the presence of the mid-level ridge. In spite of
    this, some convection will be possible as low-level convergence
    increases during the day along pre-existing outflow boundaries.
    Mid-level directional shear is evident on forecast soundings. This
    could be sufficient for some cell organization and a severe threat.
    Hail and strong wind gusts would be possible.

    ...Northern North Carolina/Southern Virginia...
    A subtle mid-level shortwave trough is forecast to move into the
    southern and central Appalachians on Sunday. At the surface, a lee
    low is forecast to develop over central North Carolina. Scattered
    thunderstorm activity is expected to develop by the afternoon across
    northern North Carolina into southern Virginia. Sufficient deep
    layer and instability will allow for a few instances of severe wind
    and hail within stronger cores.

    Valid 161200Z - 171200Z

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
    EASTERN SOUTH DAKOTA...MINNESOTA AND NORTHWESTERN WISCONSIN...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered severe storms with large to very large hail and wind
    damage are expected on Monday from the north-central High Plains
    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.

    ...Minnesota/Wisconsin/South Dakota/Iowa/Nebraska...
    A mid-level shortwave trough will move eastward across the Dakotas
    on Monday, as an associated 45 to 60 knot mid-level jet translates
    eastward through the system. At the surface, a cold front will
    advance southward through the northern Plains. Convection will
    initially develop near the front across the Dakotas during the late
    morning, moving eastward into central and northern Minnesota during
    the afternoon. This activity will likely have an isolated severe
    threat. To the south of the front, surface dewpoints from the mid
    60s to the low 70s F will contribute to moderate to strong
    instability by afternoon. Convective initiation further to the south
    across parts of southeastern South Dakota and south-central
    Minnesota should hold off until late afternoon when low-level
    convergence along the front is expected to become maximized.
    Scattered severe thunderstorms will likely develop near and to the
    south of the front, moving eastward into the upper Mississippi
    Valley from late afternoon into the evening.

    NAM forecast soundings along and near the instability axis late
    Monday afternoon have MLCAPE peaking in the 2500 to 3500 J/kg range,
    with 0-6 km shear near 50 knots. This, combined with 700-500 mb
    lapse rates of 7.5 to 8.5 C/km, will be favorable for supercells
    with large hail. Mid-level lapse rates and instability is forecast
    to be greatest from far northeast Nebraska into southeast South
    Dakota and south-central Minnesota, where supercells could produce
    hailstones greater than 2 inches in diameter. The greatest severe
    threat coverage is expected from far eastern South Dakota into
    southwest and central Minnesota, where large-scale ascent will be
    enhanced by the exit region of the mid-level jet. This area will
    also have a strong low-level jet response, which is forecast to
    increase 0-3 km storm-relative helicity into the 250 to 350 m2/s2
    range by early evening. As a result, a tornado threat is also
    expected. Wind damage will also be possible with supercells and
    short bowing line segments.

    ...Kansas/Oklahoma...
    A very moist and unstable airmass will be in place across much of
    the southern and central Plains on Monday. Surface dewpoints will be
    in the mid 60s to the lower 70s F. As surface temperatures warm
    during the day, MLCAPE is forecast to increase into the 3000 to 4000
    J/kg range. Within this unstable airmass, a substantial amount of
    low to mid-level directional shear is forecast. This will support an
    isolated severe threat with any cells that can overcome the warm air
    aloft. The greatest potential for isolated severe storms should be
    along any pre-existing boundaries, mainly during the late afternoon
    and early evening.

    ...Northern Rockies/North Dakota...
    A post-frontal airmass will be in place from the northern Rockies
    eastward into North Dakota. Surface dewpoints in the 50s F will
    contribute to moderate instability over much of the region by
    afternoon. Scattered thunderstorms appear likely to develop in the
    higher terrain of the northern Rockies and northern High Plains as
    surface temperatures warm during the day. Due to a lack of
    large-scale ascent, convective coverage should remain isolated.
    Deep-layer shear is forecast to be strong enough for isolated severe
    storms. Hail and strong wind gusts will be the primary threats.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM PARTS OF
    MINNESOTA INTO NEBRASKA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered severe storms with areas of damaging winds and hail are
    forecast on Monday from the north-central High Plains into the upper Mississippi Valley.

    ...Synopsis...
    An early shortwave trough associated with an MCS will move east out
    of ND across northern MN during the day, with modest westerlies
    aloft behind it over the central Plains to northern Rockies. Height
    falls will occur behind the northern wave as it breaks down the
    antecedent ridge. Midlevel temperatures will generally be cool with
    around -10 C at 500 mb.

    At the surface, a trough will exist from northern MN near the
    convective system southwestward across NE. Sufficient moisture will
    exist behind this boundary across MT and WY for afternoon storms,
    with a nocturnal low-level jet aiding overnight development further
    across much of NE.

    ...MN/IA/SD...
    An MCS is likely to be ongoing Monday morning from ND into northern
    MN, with associated midlevel wave. As this feature continues east
    during the day, a conditional threat of supercells will develop
    along the southern periphery, even if only an MCV by afternoon.
    Here, a low-level lapse rate plume will develop out of the
    southwest. A couple tornadoes may occur along with large hail.
    Additional isolated cells will be possible trailing southwestward
    across southern MN, northern IA, and perhaps southeast SD and
    northeast NE. In favor of large hail potential will be strong
    instability with > 3000 J/kg MUCAPE, however, deep-layer shear
    appears less than optimal, suggesting more of a localized sig hail
    threat. Otherwise, enhanced low-level shear near along the southern
    periphery of the MCS/MCV influence may yield tornado potential.

    ...MT/WY/NE...
    Strong heating and gradual cooling aloft will steepen lapse rates
    and favor scattered cells capable of hail and wind from southern MT
    across much of eastern WY during the afternoon. Additional cells may
    develop over the Black Hills. With time, an MCS is likely to
    develop, with strong to severe gusts over much of western into
    central NE. A deep boundary layer and hot temperatures preceding the
    MCS will likely aid evaporation/downdraft potential, with southwest
    850 mb wind favoring propagation.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
    KANSAS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms with large hail, wind damage and possibly a few
    tornadoes are expected on Tuesday across parts of the central Plains
    and lower to mid Missouri Valley. Outside of this area, marginally
    severe storms will be possible across a large part of the central
    U.S. Storms with isolated severe winds gusts may develop in parts of
    the central Appalachians and Mid-Atlantic.

    ...Central Plains/Lower to Mid Missouri Valley...
    A shortwave mid-level trough will move through the High Plains on
    Tuesday, as an associated 40 to 50 knot jet streak translates
    eastward into the central Plains. At the surface, a low will deepen
    across the Texas Panhandle during the day, as a front stalls from
    central Kansas northeastward into south-central Iowa. To the south
    of the front, surface dewpoints in the upper 60s to lower 70s F will
    contribute to moderate to strong instability by afternoon.
    Destabilization and increasing low-level convergence along the front
    will lead to convective initiation in the mid to late afternoon.
    Scattered to numerous thunderstorms are expected to develop near and
    to the south the front, with storms moving slowly eastward during
    the late afternoon and early evening.

    NAM forecast soundings near the instability axis at 21Z on Tuesday
    across central Kansas have MLCAPE peaking above 4000 J/kg in some
    areas, with 700-500 mb lapse rates near 8 C/km. This, combined with
    0-6 km shear around 40 knots, will support supercell development.
    The more vigorous storms could produce hailstones greater than 2
    inches in diameter. In addition, a 40 to 50 knot low-level jet is
    forecast across south-central Kansas, which will create favorable
    low-level shear for a tornado threat. It appears that a few
    tornadoes will be possible with the more dominant supercells.
    Supercells and short intense line segments will also be capable of
    producing wind damage. The threat should persist into the mid to
    late evening, as a large cluster of storms moves eastward across
    central and eastern Kansas and through the lower to mid Missouri
    Valley.

    ...Central High Plains...
    A post-frontal airmass in the central and northern High Plains will
    heat up on Tuesday, in the wake of a mid-level shortwave trough. As temperatures increase during the day, convective initiation is
    expected in the higher terrain. These storms will move into the
    lower elevations during the afternoon, where pockets of moderate
    instability are forecast. The HRRR is the most aggressive solution,
    which appears to develop a line of organized storms, moving this
    convection southeastward across the central High Plains Tuesday
    afternoon. NAM forecast soundings along this corridor at 21Z have
    0-6 km shear between 30 and 40 knots, with 700-500 lapse rates of 8
    to 9 C/km. This environment should support a severe threat with the
    more intense component of the line. Hail and damaging wind gusts
    will be the primary threats.

    ...Central Appalachians/Mid-Atlantic...
    A mid-level shortwave trough will move eastward across the central
    Appalachians on Tuesday, as a lee trough develops in the
    Mid-Atlantic states. Ahead of the trough, surface dewpoints in the
    lower 70s F will contribute to moderate instability across much of
    region. As surface temperatures warm, convection is expected to
    develop in the higher terrain, with thunderstorms moving eastward
    into the foothills of the Appalachians during the afternoon.
    Moderate deep-layer shear and steep low-level lapse rates should be
    sufficient for a marginal wind-damage threat.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE GREAT
    LAKES/UPPER MIDWEST INTO THE CENTRAL PLAINS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Strong to potentially severe storms may develop on Monday from parts
    of the Great Lakes into the central Plains.

    ...Synopsis...
    A mid/upper-level shortwave trough initially over the northern
    Plains and Canadian Prairies will move into Ontario on Monday, as a
    surface low moves into Quebec. A trailing cold front will move
    across parts of the northern/central Plains and upper Midwest/Great
    Lakes. An expansive upper ridge will remain in place over much of
    the eastern CONUS.

    ...Great Lakes/Upper Midwest...
    Scattered storms may be ongoing Monday morning across parts of
    MN/WI. While this convection will likely be somewhat elevated,
    moderate MUCAPE and sufficient deep-layer shear could support an
    isolated severe threat with the strongest early-day storms.

    Diurnal heating/destabilization may support intensification of
    morning storms, along with additional development in the vicinity of
    the front during the afternoon into the evening. Relatively strong
    diurnal heating will support moderate to locally strong buoyancy
    along/ahead of the front, in areas not overly influenced by morning
    convection. Unidirectional wind profiles and 25-40 kt in the 850-700
    mb layer could support one or more outflow-driven clusters with a
    threat of damaging wind and isolated hail.

    ...Central Plains vicinity...
    Diurnal storm development will be possible Monday afternoon along
    the front across parts of the central Plains, as well as within a
    post-frontal regime into parts of the High Plains and Front Range.
    Instability will be strongest along/ahead of the front, where the
    strongest heating is expected, though deep-layer shear will be
    rather weak across the warm sector. A few strong multicells or
    clusters may develop near the front and pose a threat of localized
    severe gusts. Given the expected widespread coverage of storms
    within a favorable thermodynamic environment (with steep prefrontal
    low-level lapse rates and large PW) for strong to severe gusts, the
    Slight Risk has been extended into parts of the central Plains.

    Effective shear will be stronger to the cool side of the front, due
    to the presence of low-level east/northeasterlies beneath southwest
    flow aloft. Coverage and intensity of post-frontal convection
    remains somewhat uncertain, but isolated hail and strong to severe
    gusts will be possible.

    Guidance still varies somewhat regarding destabilization into parts
    of the CO Front Range. Favorably veering wind profiles could support
    isolated strong storms in this area if sufficient destabilization
    can occur.

    ...Northern New England...
    Strong instability will develop Monday afternoon across parts of the
    Northeast and Mid Atlantic, though the influence of the upper ridge
    will tend to suppress storm development across much of the region. A
    warm advection regime will develop over northern New England, as
    warmer low-level temperatures spread eastward. Storm development
    cannot be ruled out within this regime, though most guidance
    suggests warm temperatures aloft may tend to suppress convection.
    Some guidance suggests convection may approach northern ME from
    Quebec within a destabilizing environment. A conditional Marginal
    Risk for damaging gusts has been added for this potential threat.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE CENTRAL
    PLAINS NORTHEASTWARD TOWARD THE UPPER GREAT LAKES...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Strong to potentially severe storms are possible Monday from parts
    of the Great Lakes into the central Plains.

    ...Synopsis...
    A prominent upper high will be centered over the Appalachians,
    providing hot conditions over much of the eastern CONUS. Early in
    the day, a shortwave trough will exit the far northern Plains,
    ejecting across Ontario. Meanwhile, a shortwave trough will move
    from parts of CA into the Great Basin, within a broader upper
    trough.

    At the surface, High pressure will exist over much of the East
    beneath the upper ridge, though weak troughing will occur during the
    day over the Mid Atlantic. Another area of high pressure behind the
    northern Plains wave will push east into the upper MS Valley, with a
    cold front roughly from central WI into western KS by 00Z. A very
    moist air mass will exist east of this cold front, and, over much of
    the East. Strong to severe storms are most likely along the Plains
    front, although scattered storms will also be likely over the TN
    Valley and Mid South, though with less severe potential. Finally,
    isolated storms may occur over parts of the Appalachians beneath the
    upper High.

    ...Central Plains into the upper Great Lakes...
    Strong heating will occur ahead of the cold front, where dewpoints
    will range from the upper 60s F to lower 70s F. This region will
    also be within a plume of midlevel moisture spreading northward west
    of the upper ridge. As such, the high PW air mass along with surface convergence near the front should easily support afternoon storms,
    most likely from WI southwestward to perhaps the OK/TX Panhandles by
    00Z.

    Deep-layer shear and mean winds in general will not be very strong
    along the frontal zone, but perhaps a bit stronger over northern
    areas as the upper wave glances the area. The end result should be
    an elongated area of afternoon storms. Some of these storms may
    briefly contain marginal hail due to moderate instability and modest
    midlevel lapse rates, but storms will likely merge quickly over most
    of the area with strong to locally damaging gusts.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR EASTERN
    WY...NORTHEAST CO...AND PARTS OF WESTERN NE/SD...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe storms are possible Tuesday from eastern Wyoming into
    southwest South Dakota, the Nebraska Panhandle, and northeast
    Colorado. Isolated strong to severe storms will also be possible
    from parts of the central Plains and Midwest into the Northeast.

    ...Synopsis...
    A mid/upper-level shortwave trough is forecast to move from the
    Southwest into the northern Rockies on Tuesday. Downstream, a strong mid/upper-level trough will move across parts of Ontario and Quebec,
    resulting in some dampening of the persistent upper ridge over the
    East.

    At the surface, a warm front will move northward across parts of the
    central Plains, while the eastern portion of the front will be
    draped somewhere from the Midwest into the southern Great Lakes
    vicinity. A cold front will move southward across parts of the
    northern Great Lakes and Northeast/New England.

    ...WY/CO into western NE/SD...
    Increasing low-level moisture beneath generally steep midlevel lapse
    rates will support moderate destabilization across parts of eastern
    WY into northeast CO. Veering wind profiles will support organized
    storms, and isolated to widely scattered supercells may develop from
    late afternoon into the evening. Large to very large hail, localized
    severe gusts, and perhaps a tornado are all possible. Some upscale
    growth will be possible through the evening, which could spread at
    least an isolated severe threat into parts of western NE/SD. The
    longevity of the severe threat into Tuesday night is uncertain, due
    to increasing low-level stability.

    ...Lower MO River Valley into the Midwest and Great Lakes...
    In the wake of morning convection, strong heating/destabilization
    will support development of strong to potentially severe storms from
    parts of eastern KS/southeast NE into the Midwest and Great Lakes,
    along the periphery of the upper ridge. Development will likely be
    focused near an outflow-influenced front, and potentially near any
    remnant MCVs. Deep-layer shear is expected to be relatively weak
    along/ahead of the front, but unidirectional southwesterly flow will
    support potential for outflow-driven clusters capable of locally
    damaging wind.

    Corridors of greater severe threat may eventually evolve within the
    broad Marginal Risk across this region, but confidence in the
    placement of the front and any MCVs or other vorticity maxima
    precludes higher probabilities at this time.

    ...Parts of the Northeast/New England...
    Midlevel lapse rates will be weak, but relatively strong heating
    will support moderate buoyancy by afternoon across parts of the
    Northeast, along and ahead of the cold front. Stronger ascent and
    deep-layer flow will remain north of the front, but sufficient flow
    and steepening of low-level lapse rates will support a threat of
    damaging gusts with any strong storms across the region. Storm
    coverage is uncertain, but greater severe probabilities may
    eventually be needed if trends support more than isolated storm
    development during the afternoon and evening.

    ...Southeast into the Carolinas and Mid Atlantic...
    A remnant EML will gradually move southwestward along the periphery
    of the upper ridge across parts of the Carolinas, Mid Atlantic, and
    Southeast on Tuesday. While this will support strong buoyancy, there
    is a considerable amount of spread regarding storm coverage across
    this region Tuesday. At this time, the highest confidence in storm
    development is over the southern Appalachians, where deep-layer
    shear will be negligible underneath the upper ridge. If confidence
    in storm coverage increases where slightly stronger flow aloft will
    be present, severe probabilities may eventually be needed.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER MUCH OF
    KANSAS AND INTO WESTERN MISSOURI...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms producing damaging winds, hail, and possibly a
    few tornadoes are expected Tuesday across parts of the central
    Plains and lower to mid Missouri Valley. Outside of this area,
    marginally severe storms will be possible across a large part of the
    central U.S. Storms with isolated severe winds gusts may develop in
    parts of the central Appalachians and Mid-Atlantic.

    ...Synopsis...
    On Tuesday, a low amplitude upper trough will move from the Rockies
    into the Plains, providing cooling aloft. To the north, an upper
    wave will lift out of the Great Lakes, while modest southwest flow
    aloft develops over the Appalachians north of an upper high.

    At the surface, a low will develop over the TX Panhandle, and a
    front associated with the northern wave will stall from Lake MI into
    the central Plains. South of this boundary, a very moist air mass
    with 70s F dewpoints will exist over a large area. As the upper
    trough moves into the Plains, a low-level jet will increase during
    the evening with over 50 kt into KS.

    ...Central Plains...
    Areas of morning thunderstorms are expected from parts of southern
    NE into eastern KS, though the exact location is uncertain.
    Nonetheless, any early activity should generally dissipate during
    the day, with very strong instability developing along and south of
    I-70 in KS/MO. Southwest winds across the southern High Plains will
    extend a low-level lapse rate plume into southwest/central KS, while
    mid 70s F dewpoints develop over eastern OK and KS. Meanwhile, the
    air mass over NE/CO/WY will likely destabilize/recover during the
    afternoon with pockets of strong instability.

    Storm evolution is a bit complex for Tuesday and for some areas will
    depend on early day storms and outflows. But in general, robust
    storms will develop late in the afternoon over much of central into
    eastern KS, near the instability axis and downstream of the
    low-level lapse rate plume, and, over much of eastern WY/CO and into
    western NE where hail and damaging gusts will be possible.

    Of particular concern are potential supercells and eventual damaging
    MCS development over the Enhanced Risk area late in the day and into
    the evening. A conditional risk for tornadoes will exist with
    initial activity, should sufficient SRH remain along any residual
    outflows from early day storms. Isolated very large hail will also
    be probable with slow-moving, large cells. With time,
    clustering/aggregating outflows should yield a severe MCS, which may
    occur in earnest as activity from the High Plains pushes east late.

    ...WV into VA and western MD...
    Strong heating will occur over much of the southeastern states
    beneath the upper ridge, with southwest winds aiding theta-e
    advection northward into WV/VA/MD. Midlevel moisture will also exist
    across the region, with scattered storms developing during the
    afternoon over the higher terrain. Some clustering may occur, with a
    small area of locally damaging wind potential late in the day as
    storms continue east toward northern VA and western MD.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM SOUTHERN
    LOWER MICHIGAN INTO NORTHWEST OH...INDIANA...SOUTHERN
    ILLINOIS/MISSOURI...AND EXTREME WESTERN KENTUCKY...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Strong to severe storms are expected on Wednesday from parts of
    southern Missouri northeastward into southern lower Michigan.
    Damaging winds, isolated hail, and a few tornadoes will be possible.
    More isolated severe storms may develop across the southern Plains.

    ...Synopsis...
    Extensive antecedent convection results in some uncertainty
    regarding synoptic details on Wednesday. In general, a convectively
    enhanced mid/upper-level trough is forecast to move across parts of
    the mid/upper MS Valley into the Great Lakes. In conjunction with
    this trough, a deepening surface low will move from parts of
    IA/northern MO toward lower MI by Wednesday night.

    To the east, one or more weak midlevel shortwave troughs may move
    across parts of the Mid Atlantic and Northeast, along the northwest
    periphery of an upper-level ridge off of the Carolina coast.

    ...MI southwestward into the mid MS and OH Valleys...
    Convection associated with a remnant MCS may be ongoing Wednesday
    morning from parts of IA/northern MO into the Ozarks. Outflow and
    lingering cloud cover from this remnant MCS, and the intensity of
    possible MCV-like enhancement to the primary shortwave trough, will
    influence severe potential from parts of the mid MS Valley and OH
    Valley into northern IL/IN and lower MI.

    To the south/east of any remnant outflow, and along/south of a warm
    front that will move northward in conjunction with the deepening
    surface low, diurnal heating of a richly moist environment (with
    dewpoints in the 70s F) will result in moderate to strong buoyancy,
    with MLCAPE ranging from 1000-1500 J/kg near the warm front, to
    greater than 2500 J/kg across the warm sector. Renewed storm
    development will be possible during the afternoon near the warm
    front and across the weakly capped warm sector. Midlevel flow is
    generally forecast to increase to 40-50 kt across the warm sector,
    providing sufficient effective shear for supercells and organized
    clusters.

    Potential for supercells capable of all severe hazards (including a
    tornado threat) may become maximized in closer proximity to the
    surface low and warm front across parts of IL/IN and lower MI, where
    backed surface winds will support favorable low-level shear/SRH. A
    corridor of greater tornado probabilities may eventually need to be
    considered, depending on trends regarding the intensity and track of
    the surface low.

    Farther southwest along the outflow-reinforced cold front, somewhat
    weaker upper-level flow may result in more of a tendency for storm
    clustering, but effective shear will still be sufficient for
    organized convection, and storms will be capable of producing
    scattered damaging winds, isolated hail, and possibly a couple
    tornadoes.

    Some severe threat could persist well into the evening and even into
    late Wednesday night as storms spread eastward, especially if the
    stronger model solutions regarding the strength of the midlevel
    shortwave trough and surface low end up closer to reality.

    ...Southern Plains...
    Large-scale ascent will generally become more nebulous with
    southwestward extent into the southern Plains, though at least
    isolated storm development will be possible near the cold front
    during the late afternoon and evening. While coverage is uncertain,
    strong to extreme buoyancy and modestly favorable deep-layer shear
    will support a threat of severe hail and wind with any storms that
    develop and persist within this regime.

    ...Mid Atlantic vicinity...
    Rather strong heating of a moist environment will result in moderate
    to strong buoyancy Wednesday afternoon from parts of the Carolinas
    into the Mid Atlantic. Scattered diurnal storm development will be
    possible along/east of the Blue Ridge, and potentially farther north
    and east into parts of DE/NJ and eastern PA. Guidance generally
    depicts a belt of 35-45 kt midlevel flow across the region, to the
    northwest of the upper-level ridge off of the Carolina coast. This
    modest flow enhancement could result in some storm organization,
    with large PW and steepened low-level lapse rates resulting in a
    threat for at least isolated damaging wind, and perhaps some small
    to marginally severe hail.

    ...Parts of far northeast MT into ND and northwest MN...
    Despite generally limited low-level moisture, relatively steep lapse
    rates and cool temperatures aloft may support a pocket of moderate destabilization across parts of far northeast MT and ND into
    northern MN Wednesday afternoon. Wind profiles will be relatively
    weak and unidirectional, but a couple stronger cells or clusters
    will be possible during the afternoon and evening, with localized
    potential for hail and strong to severe gusts.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM SOUTHERN
    LOWER MICHIGAN INTO NORTHWEST OHIO...INDIANA...SOUTHERN
    ILLINOIS/MISSOURI...AND EXTREME WESTERN KENTUCKY...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Strong to severe storms are expected on Wednesday from parts of
    southern Missouri northeastward into southern lower Michigan.
    Damaging winds, isolated hail, and a few tornadoes will be possible.
    More isolated severe storms may develop across the southern Plains.

    ...Synopsis...
    A mid-level trough will traverse from MO/IA to the Southern Great
    Lakes on Wednesday. A surface low will accompany this mid-level
    trough and move from eastern Iowa to Michigan. A cold front will
    extend from this surface low to the southern Great Plains. Severe
    thunderstorms are expected along much of this frontal zone on
    Wednesday.

    ...Midwest into the Southern Great Lakes...
    Upper 60s to low 70s dewpoints will be present ahead of a cold front
    across the Midwest/Great Lakes on Wednesday morning. Some cloudcover
    is likely across the region, but only minimal heating (mid 70s)
    appears necessary for convective initiation. Therefore, expect
    relatively early storm development along and ahead of a cold front
    north of I-70 during the late morning to mid-day timeframe. Moderate instability and modest shear (35 to 40 knots) will promote storm
    organization. Very weak (~5.5 C/km) mid-level lapse rates amid a
    moist profile, should mostly limit hail production. Therefore,
    damaging wind gusts will likely be the primary threat. However, some
    tornado threat will also exist as forecast soundings show strong
    low-level curvature and significant streamwise vorticity in the
    lowest 1km. There is some uncertainty with storm mode, but a tornado
    threat would exist with either a broken line or a QLCS as it moves
    across northern Indiana into southern Michigan and northwest Ohio.

    ...Ozarks into the Mid-Mississippi Valley...
    There is uncertainty across southern Missouri and northern Arkansas
    regarding the strength of morning convection across the region. It
    is unclear whether this morning convection will reintensify and move east/northeast with a renewed threat, or if additional development
    will occur during the afternoon and be the primary threat. However,
    given the lack of strong low-level jet support, expect the overnight
    MCS to be weakening by morning with the additional afternoon
    development solution preferred. Moderate to potentially strong
    instability is forecast by mid-afternoon with modest (25-30 knots)
    of shear. This will support mostly multicell clusters with a threat
    for damaging wind gusts.

    ...Southern Plains...
    Strong heating is forecast south of the boundary across the southern
    Plains. This will result in moderate to potentially strong
    instability amid 25-30 knots of shear. Very warm 700mb temperatures
    (12C) will likely limit overall convective coverage. However,
    forecast soundings show a mostly uncapped environment where a
    surface boundary should be present. Therefore, at least isolated
    storms are possible. Modest shear and very steep lapse rates will
    support some hail/wind threat from any storms which can develop
    within this region.

    ...Northern Plains...
    Despite generally limited low-level moisture, relatively steep lapse
    rates and cool temperatures aloft may support a pocket of moderate destabilization across parts of far northeast MT and ND into
    northern MN Wednesday afternoon. Wind profiles will be relatively
    weak and unidirectional, but a couple stronger cells or clusters
    will be possible during the afternoon and evening, with localized
    potential for hail and strong to severe gusts.

    ...Mid Atlantic...
    Strong heating, combined with low 70s dewpoints will result in
    moderate to strong instability in the Mid-Atlantic on Wednesday. 12Z
    guidance has trended weaker with a belt of mid-level flow across the Mid-Atlantic Wednesday afternoon/evening. However, sufficient
    mid-level flow is still forecast for modest shear and some multicell
    clusters. Damaging wind gusts will be the primary threat from these
    scattered storms.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM PARTS OF NEW
    ENGLAND INTO THE MID ATLANTIC AND NORTH CAROLINA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Strong to potentially severe thunderstorms are forecast on Thursday
    from parts of New England into the Mid Atlantic and Carolinas.

    ...Synopsis...
    A seasonably deep mid/upper-level trough is forecast to move from
    the lower Great Lakes region into the Northeast and Mid Atlantic on
    Thursday. A surface low will move across parts of Quebec during the
    day and evening, as a trailing cold front moves across parts of New
    England, the Mid Atlantic, and Carolinas/Southeast.

    An upstream midlevel shortwave trough will move across parts of
    northern MN into WI and upper MI by evening. An amplified
    mid/upper-level trough will move gradually eastward across the
    western CONUS, as an upper-level ridge initially over the southern
    Rockies begins to break down and shift eastward. In response to this
    trough, a surface low will gradually deepen across the northern High
    Plains.

    ...New England into the Mid Atlantic/Southeast...
    Relatively rich low-level moisture will stream northward ahead of
    the front approaching New England and the Mid Atlantic during the
    day on Thursday. Moderate buoyancy may develop as far north as
    northern NY/VT, with pockets of stronger heating/destabilization
    farther south into the Mid Atlantic and Carolinas/Southeast.

    The strongest deep-layer flow/shear is still expected from
    PA/northern NJ northward into New England, where wind profiles will
    be conditionally supportive of supercells and organized bowing
    segments. Damaging winds and perhaps a tornado could accompany the
    strongest storms in this area.

    Farther south into the southern Mid Atlantic and Carolinas,
    deep-layer flow will be somewhat unidirectional and weaker, but
    still sufficient for some organized convection. Clusters capable of
    producing scattered wind damage will be possible, especially in
    areas where stronger diurnal heating/destabilization occurs.

    Deep-layer flow will be rather weak into parts of MS/AL/GA/SC, but
    the glancing influence of the mid/upper-level trough and relatively
    large MLCAPE and PW will support storms capable of producing
    isolated strong/damaging gusts.

    ...Southwest MT and vicinity...
    Weak midlevel height falls are still expected across parts of
    western MT Thursday afternoon/evening, in response to the
    approaching mid/upper-level trough. Low-level moisture will remain
    limited, but strong diurnal heating will support high-based storm
    development. Steep low-level lapse rates and relatively strong
    midlevel flow will result in potential for isolated severe gusts
    during the afternoon and evening as convection spreads eastward.

    ...Upper Midwest...
    Low-level warm advection related to the southeastward-moving
    midlevel shortwave trough may aid in storm development on Thursday
    from northern MN into parts of WI and upper MI. Moderate instability
    and sufficient deep-layer shear will support potential for a few
    stronger cells/clusters capable of producing large hail and damaging
    wind. Additional strong to locally severe storms may redevelop later
    Thursday night across parts of this region, in response to a
    nocturnally strengthening low-level jet.

    ...Northern Plains...
    Diurnal heating of an increasingly moist airmass will result in
    moderate to strong buoyancy across parts of the northern Plains by
    Thursday afternoon. Deep-layer shear will be sufficient for
    organized storms, but diurnal storm development remains highly
    uncertain amid background midlevel height rises associated with a
    building ridge. Development of a storm or two cannot be ruled out
    through evening near a surface trough/weak dryline. Elevated storm
    coverage may increase somewhat Thursday night in response to a
    strengthening low-level jet, which could pose a threat of hail and
    localized strong gusts.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE CAROLINA
    PIEDMONT INTO PARTS OF THE MID ATLANTIC AND NEW ENGLAND...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Strong to potentially severe thunderstorms are forecast on Thursday
    from parts of New England into the Mid Atlantic and Carolinas.

    ...Synopsis...
    A positively tilted mid-level shortwave trough will move from the
    Great Lakes to the Northeast on Thursday. Mid-level flow will
    strengthen east of this trough from the Mid-Atlantic to the
    Northeast. A surface low will deepen as it moves from the eastern
    Great Lakes to northern Maine during the period. A cold front will
    extend southwest from this surface low and will begin from the
    eastern Great Lakes to the Mid-Mississippi Valley Thursday morning
    and near or off the Atlantic Coast by 12Z Friday.

    ...New England into the Mid-Atlantic/Southeast...
    Strong heating is expected across a broad, moist warm sector with
    dewpoints in the upper 60s to low 70s east of the Appalachians by
    Thursday afternoon. This will result in moderate to potentially
    strong instability across much of the East Coast. The best chance
    for more organized storms will be from central Virginia northward
    where stronger shear will be present beneath 50 knot mid-level flow.
    A zone of potentially greater severe weather probabilities may be
    present across the Mid-Atlantic where the greatest instability/shear
    are expected to overlap. It appears the cold front will lag well
    behind with the majority of convection developing along a
    pre-frontal trough during the afternoon. Without the stronger
    frontal forcing, some concerns about convective coverage/intensity
    exist, precluding higher probabilities at this time.

    South of this area, mid-level flow will not be as strong. Therefore,
    more modest shear will limit greater storm organization.
    Nonetheless, modest (25 knot) shear will support some multicell
    storms capable of damaging wind gusts across North Carolina. Even
    weaker shear will be present across the southeast where strong
    instability is expected. Storms are not expected to be as organized
    here, but the strong instability and moist environment could support
    some water-loaded downdrafts capable of damaging wind gusts.

    ...Southern Montana...
    Weak midlevel height falls are still expected across parts of
    western MT Thursday afternoon/evening, in response to the
    approaching mid/upper-level trough. Low-level moisture will remain
    limited, but strong diurnal heating will support high-based storm
    development. Steep low-level lapse rates and relatively strong
    midlevel flow will result in potential for isolated severe gusts
    during the afternoon and evening as convection spreads eastward.

    ...Upper Midwest...
    Low-level warm advection related to the southeastward-moving
    midlevel shortwave trough may aid in storm development on Thursday
    from northern MN into parts of WI and upper MI. Moderate instability
    and sufficient deep-layer shear will support potential for a few
    stronger cells/clusters capable of producing large hail and damaging
    wind. Additional strong to locally severe storms may redevelop later
    Thursday night across parts of this region, in response to a
    nocturnally strengthening low-level jet.

    ...Northern Plains...
    Diurnal heating of an increasingly moist airmass will result in
    moderate to strong buoyancy across parts of the northern Plains by
    Thursday afternoon. Deep-layer shear will be sufficient for
    organized storms, but diurnal storm development remains highly
    uncertain amid background midlevel height rises associated with a
    building ridge. Development of a storm or two cannot be ruled out
    through evening near a surface trough/weak dryline. Elevated storm
    coverage may increase somewhat Thursday night in response to a
    strengthening low-level jet, which could pose a threat of hail and
    localized strong gusts.

    ...Central High Plains...
    Moderate to strong buoyancy will develop across the central High
    Plains amid strong surface heating. Shear will not be as strong this
    far south, but a dryline/surface trough may provide sufficient
    forcing for a few high-based storms Thursday afternoon/early
    evening.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
    THE NORTHERN PLAINS INTO THE UPPER MIDWEST/GREAT LAKES...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms may develop Friday into Friday night across
    parts of the northern Plains and upper Midwest. Significant severe
    weather is possible.

    ...Synopsis...
    A seasonably deep mid/upper-level cyclone will move across the
    Pacific Northwest on Friday, as the attendant large-scale trough
    begins to impinge on the central/northern Great Plains. Downstream,
    an upper ridge will gradually shift eastward from the southern
    Plains toward the lower MS Valley.

    A surface low will deepen across the northern High Plains, with
    increasing low-level moisture expected near and east of the low and
    trailing dryline/surface trough, and also near/north of a warm front
    that will extend east/northeast of the low.

    ...Dakotas into the Upper Midwest/Great Lakes...
    Strong to extreme buoyancy will develop Friday afternoon across much
    of the central/northern Plains into the Upper Midwest. Warming
    temperatures aloft will result in substantial capping across the
    warm sector, and coverage/location of storms within an otherwise
    volatile environment remains very uncertain.

    Most guidance suggests a mid/upper-level shortwave will emerge from
    the western trough and move across the northern Plains sometime
    during the afternoon/evening, though differences remain regarding
    the timing and amplitude of this shortwave. This shortwave trough
    could aid in isolated storm development by late afternoon/early
    evening, primarily near or north of the surface low and warm front.
    Veering wind profiles will support supercells, with a conditional
    threat for very large hail, isolated severe gusts, and also some
    tornado potential if any supercells can become surface-based.

    Some increase in storm coverage is expected Friday evening into the
    overnight, in response to a nocturnally strengthening low-level jet.
    Initial development within this regime could be supercellular, with
    potential for upscale growth with time. An intense MCS capable of
    producing significant severe gusts could evolve with time. Even if
    this does not occur, one or more smaller clusters may develop and
    track east-southeastward north of the warm front, with very large
    buoyancy and sufficient deep-layer shear supporting a threat of
    large to very large hail and severe gusts.

    Greater severe probabilities may be needed if confidence increases
    regarding a sufficient coverage of supercells, and/or development of
    an intense MCS.

    ...Montana...
    Low-level easterly flow will support some moistening across much of
    MT on Friday, though guidance continues to vary regarding the
    magnitude of destabilization during the afternoon and evening.
    Large-scale ascent associated with the approaching mid/upper-level
    trough will support scattered storm development across western MT
    during the afternoon, with sufficient deep-layer shear for some
    storm organization. Depending on the extent of downstream
    destabilization, some threat for strong to potentially severe storms
    may spread into parts of central/eastern MT Friday evening. Greater
    severe probabilities may be needed into parts of western/central MT
    depending on trends regarding destabilization.

    ...South-central High Plains...
    High-based convection may develop Friday afternoon across parts of
    CO/NM, within a very warm and well-mixed environment. While this
    convection should generally be disorganized, localized severe gusts
    could accompany this convection before it subsides during the
    evening.

    ...Lower Great Lakes...
    A northwesterly flow regime will become established across the lower
    Great Lakes vicinity on Friday. While large-scale ascent will remain
    rather nebulous, and destabilization is expected to be rather
    modest, elongated hodographs will conditionally support some storm organization. A few strong storms capable of locally gusty winds and
    perhaps marginal hail cannot be ruled out during the afternoon and
    evening.

    ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM FAR
    EASTERN MONTANA ACROSS PARTS OF THE DAKOTAS AND MINNESOTA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are likely Friday into Friday night across
    parts of the northern Plains and upper Midwest. Areas of significant
    severe wind and hail are expected.

    ...Synopsis...
    Upper ridging will occur over the northern Plains during the day, as
    a shortwave trough and strong midlevel jet nose into the northern
    Rockies. Low pressure will deepen from eastern MT into SD, with a
    warm front extending east across northern SD, southern MN and
    western WI. Near the warm front, backed winds and a capping
    inversion will help maintain a zone of 70s F dewpoints from the
    upper MS Valley westward along the SD/ND border. Westerly 850 mb
    winds early Friday will back to southerly and increase during the
    afternoon and evening, with a broad zone of 40-50 kt developing and
    aiding northward heat and moisture transport. Very hot conditions
    are expected near the surface low in SD with gusty southwest winds
    and drying. Overnight, a cold front associated with the slow-moving
    upper trough should push into western Dakotas.

    ...From eastern MT across the northern Plains and into upper MI...
    Areas of thunderstorms may be ongoing Friday morning across IA,
    southern MN and southwest WI. Lift will exist along and east of a
    deep-layer instability gradient, with theta-e advection out of the
    southwest with a 50 kt low-level jet. This activity may produce hail
    and locally strong gusts Friday morning, with a weakening trend
    during the day.

    Strong instability will then develop throughout the day as
    temperatures warm and moistening occurs along the warm front and in
    a plume north of the MT/SD low. Storms are first expected to form
    over western/central MT beneath the cooler temperatures aloft, with
    a few cells producing strong gusts or marginal hail. However, by 21Z
    or so, supercells are expected over eastern MT. Deep-layer shear
    will be strong by virtue of easterly low-level winds beneath
    increasingly westerlies aloft. Very large hail should be expected as
    these cells move into ND, with MUCAPE increasing to 3000-4000 J/kg.
    Potential may also exist for a severe bow moving across ND and
    northwest MN, with significant damaging gusts.

    Farther east along the warm front, much of the area will remain
    capped during the day. However, the nose of the low-level lapse rate
    plume should result in at least a small area of uncapped and very
    unstable air mass, perhaps over northeast SD and southeast ND. Here,
    a conditional supercell and tornado risk will exist. Should storms
    form in this area around or after 00Z, very large hail and tornadoes
    appear likely as low-level shear will be maximized here.

    Otherwise, additional elevated storms should develop within the warm
    advection wing across northern MN, WI, and upper MI. Hail appears
    likely as instability will be large, though damaging wind potential
    is less certain and will depend on boundary layer temperatures.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PARTS OF THE
    NORTHERN GREAT LAKES INTO NY AND NORTHERN PA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Strong to locally severe storms are possible Saturday from the
    northern Great Plains into the Upper Midwest and Great Lakes.

    ...Synopsis...
    A deep mid/upper-level trough will move gradually eastward across
    the western CONUS on Saturday, as an embedded shortwave trough moves
    from parts ID/MT into the Canadian Prairies. A surface low initially
    over the northern Plains is forecast to move northeast through the
    day, with a secondary surface low expected to develop along a cold
    front across the central High Plains during the evening.

    Downstream, a mid/upper-level shortwave trough (possibly augmented
    by D1/Friday MCS development) is generally forecast to move from the
    northern Great Lakes toward New England.

    ...Great Lakes into the Northeast...
    An MCS will likely be ongoing Saturday morning across parts of the
    northern Great Lakes, with other areas of elevated convection
    possible farther south across lower MI. While there is some
    uncertainty regarding MCS timing, some damaging-wind and hail threat
    would accompany this system and any other robust morning convection
    before spreading into Ontario.

    The convectively augmented shortwave trough associated with the
    potential MCS may continue to impinge upon the northeast periphery
    of an expanding instability reservoir. Even if the morning MCS
    weakens or stays in Canada, strong to potentially severe storms may
    spread southward out of Ontario into the lower Great Lakes region,
    and/or develop within a low-level warm advection regime. Damaging
    winds may be the most common hazard, though low-level shear/SRH may
    become sufficient for a localized tornado threat as well. Convection
    may continue into late Saturday night with at least an isolated
    severe threat.

    Farther west, there is some potential for isolated storm development
    during the afternoon/evening across the northern Great Lakes
    vicinity, within a conditionally favorable environment. However,
    with large-scale ascent expected to remain rather nebulous in the
    wake of the departing MCS and shortwave trough, confidence is
    currently low regarding this scenario.

    ...Northern Plains into the Upper Midwest...
    While there is some lingering uncertainty regarding the influence of
    D1/Friday convection, strong to extreme buoyancy is likely to again
    develop across parts of the northern Plains and Upper Midwest, along
    and east of the cold front. However, very warm temperatures aloft
    and generally weak large-scale ascent may tend to suppress storm
    development across much of the strongly unstable warm sector. Strong
    heating could support isolated development across parts of
    NE/SD/eastern ND into northern MN near the surface low and front,
    which would conditionally pose a severe threat given the favorable
    parameter space.

    Farther northwest, guidance continues to vary regarding the
    magnitude of instability from eastern MT/northern WY into the
    western Dakotas. Strong morning convection will be possible across
    eastern MT, and some redevelopment may occur during the
    afternoon/evening, depending on the extent to which the departing MT
    shortwave trough can impinge upon favorable instability. A supercell
    or two will be possible, with a localized threat for all severe
    hazards.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PARTS OF THE
    NORTHERN GREAT LAKES INTO NEW YORK AND NORTHERN PENNSYLVANIA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Strong to locally severe storms are possible Saturday from the
    northern Great Plains into the Upper Midwest and Great Lakes.

    ...Synopsis...
    An amplifying pattern will occur on Saturday with a trough
    strengthening across the west with a ridge building across the
    eastern CONUS. Surface high pressure will be present across the
    eastern CONUS with lee troughing across the central and northern
    Plains ahead of the strengthening western CONUS trough.

    ...Great Lakes into the Northeast...
    A strong MCS will likely be ongoing at the beginning of the period
    across northern Wisconsin/western Upper Michigan. This MCS will
    likely continue east through the morning with some wind/hail threat
    across Upper Michigan and northern Lower Michigan before eventually
    moving into Ontario. If this MCS continues to track along the
    instability gradient, it could eventually arrive across
    western/central New York during the afternoon/evening. However, this
    threat is conditional given stronger forcing farther north in Canada
    and strong building heights across the Northeast.

    Additional thunderstorms may develop along the trailing
    outflow/composite boundary during the afternoon as strong
    instability builds into the northern Great Lakes. However, building
    heights aloft should mostly suppress convection, with only isolated
    storm coverage expected, if at all. If any storms can develop, the
    environment would be very favorable for large hail, severe wind
    gusts, and perhaps a tornado.

    ...Northern Plains into the Upper Midwest...
    Very strong instability is expected to build across the northern
    Plains on Saturday afternoon/evening. Very warm 700mb temperatures
    (16C) and building heights aloft should keep thunderstorm activity
    suppressed for much of the period. However, strong heating could
    allow for isolated storm development which would likely be
    supercellular with a hail and wind threat if this conditional threat
    does materialize.

    A few strong to potentially severe storms may be ongoing at the
    beginning of the period across eastern Montana as a weak mid-level
    trough traverses the region. Storm activity will likely remain
    limited across eastern Montana for much of the day as heights build
    aloft. However, additional storms may develop early Sunday morning
    as troughing starts to advance east. Limited instability is the
    primary limiting factor, but if sufficient instability can develop,
    a few strong to severe storms may be possible (12Z NSSL WRF).

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE UPPER
    MIDWEST INTO CENTRAL NE...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are possible on Sunday from parts of the
    central and northern Plains into the upper Midwest. Significant hail
    and wind are possible across parts of eastern North Dakota and
    northern Minnesota, along with some tornado potential.

    ...Synopsis...
    A mid/upper-level low initially over ID is forecast to move
    northeastward as a shortwave trough Sunday, reaching parts of the
    northern Great Plains and Canadian Prairies by Sunday night. As this
    occurs, a surface low initially over parts of NE/SD will move toward
    northwest MN, as a trailing cold front moves across parts of the central/northern Plains and Upper Midwest.

    Farther east, a mid/upper-level shortwave trough and associated
    surface low and weak cold front will move across parts of New
    England. Guidance continues to vary regarding the timing and
    intensity of this system. In the wake of this shortwave trough, an
    upper ridge will amplify into parts of the Northeast.

    ...Great Plains into the Upper Midwest/Great Lakes...
    Strong to extreme instability will again develop from the
    central/northern Plains into the Upper Midwest and Great Lakes,
    along/ahead of the front. Stronger deep-layer flow and ascent will
    tend to lag behind the front, though sufficient vertical shear for
    organized storms will be in place along the front.

    The most favorable environment is expected near the track of the
    primary surface low from eastern ND into northern MN, where 40-50 kt
    of midlevel flow will overlap strong to extreme instability.
    Supercell development will be possible near the low track and in the
    vicinity of a warm front extending east-northeast from the low, with
    some clustering and upscale growth possible with time. With
    large-scale ascent tending to lag behind the front, coverage of
    storms into early evening is uncertain, but any supercells could
    pose a threat of all severe hazards, including tornado and very
    large hail potential. Any organized upscale growth would result in
    an increasing damaging-wind threat (including conditional potential
    for gusts near/above 75 mph) as storms spread east-northeastward
    into the evening.

    More isolated severe storms will also be possible within the
    post-frontal regime across the northern High Plains, where moderate
    MUCAPE and sufficient deep-layer shear could support isolated
    supercells or small clusters capable of severe hail and wind.

    Farther south into the central Plains, both instability and
    deep-layer shear will be somewhat weaker, due to warmer temperatures
    aloft and weaker flow. However, strong heating near and east of a
    developing secondary low across the central High Plains could result
    in scattered storm development near the front by evening. Relatively unidirectional southwesterly flow could result in a few stronger northeastward-moving cells/clusters capable of damaging wind and
    isolated hail.

    Scattered storms will also be possible within a weakly capped
    environment into parts of the southern High Plains. While deep-layer
    flow/shear will weaker in this area, moderate buoyancy and steep
    low-level lapse rates could support isolated severe gusts with the
    strongest storms.

    ...Parts of the Northeast/New England...
    Isolated strong storms may be ongoing Sunday morning across parts of
    the Northeast/New England, within a low-level warm advection regime.
    Confidence is low in the details, due to model variance regarding
    the strength and timing of the shortwave trough and surface low that
    will move through the region. Increasing instability and sufficient
    deep-layer shear will conditionally support organized convection
    through the day.

    At this time, the most likely scenario is for an isolated severe
    threat to persist through parts of the morning, before diminishing
    during the afternoon as the upper ridge builds into the region.
    However, with strong to extreme buoyancy expected to develop during
    the afternoon, the area will need to be closely monitored for
    diurnal redevelopment along any remnant surface boundaries.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE UPPER
    MISSISSIPPI VALLEY TO THE SOUTHERN HIGH PLAINS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms remain possible on Sunday from parts of the
    central and northern Plains into the upper Midwest. Significant hail
    and wind are possible across parts of eastern North Dakota and
    northern Minnesota, along with some tornado potential. A few severe
    storms are also possible across the Northeast.

    ...Synopsis...
    Broad mid-level troughing will prevail across the western U.S. as an
    upper ridge continues to build over the eastern CONUS tomorrow
    (Sunday). A pronounced mid-level impulse/shortwave trough will eject
    into the northern Plains Sunday afternoon, supporting rapid surface
    cyclone development/strengthening over the central High Plains. This
    surface low is poised to move northeast toward the Upper MS Valley,
    encouraging the northward transport of warm, moist air to the Great
    Lakes while a trailing frontal boundary slowly advances eastward
    along the High Plains, down to the Rio Grande. Along the warm front
    and trailing frontal boundary, scattered severe thunderstorm
    development is possible. Remnant thunderstorms will also crest the
    ridge and propagate into the Northeast from southeastern Ontario
    Sunday morning and afternoon. These storms will traverse the eastern
    periphery of moderate to strong buoyancy and modest wind shear,
    which may aid in some severe potential.

    ...Northern Mississippi Valley...
    A warm front should reach the international border by Sunday
    afternoon, with 70+ F surface dewpoints beneath 8 C/km mid-level
    lapse rates expected over much of the Upper MS Valley by Sunday
    afternoon. This thermodynamic profile will yield widespread 3000+
    J/kg MLCAPE (over 4000 J/kg in some locales), but with appreciable
    MLCINH. Rapid strengthening and gradual veering of the vertical wind
    profile, from the surface to about 500 mb, will support sizeable and
    curved low-level hodographs (e.g. 200+ m2/s2 effective SRH), but
    with modest mid to upper-level elongation. A such, if storms can
    develop ahead of the frontal boundary, supercells and short bowing
    segments capable of all severe hazards (including 75+ mph gusts, 2+
    inch diameter hail, and a few tornadoes) are all possible. The
    overall coverage of the severe risk is strongly dependent on cap
    erosion and the ability for the more robust updrafts to overcome
    inhibition. The best chance for this occurring is over northern MN,
    closer to the warm front, where locally backed low-level flow will
    also yield the best chance for tornadoes. Higher severe
    probabilities may be warranted if confidence in MLCINH erosion
    increases.

    ...Northern High Plains...
    A few thunderstorms may develop across the northern High Plains by
    afternoon peak heating, behind the frontal boundary. The pronounced
    mid-level shortwave trough will overspread this region, which will
    experience the greatest deep-layer ascent, along with strong speed
    shear (as shown via forecast soundings as elongated, straight
    hodographs/50 kts of effective bulk shear). 8+ C/km low and
    mid-level lapse rates will yield around 1000 J/kg MLCAPE in this
    environment. A couple of multicells or transient supercells may
    occur, accompanied by some risk for severe wind/hail.

    ...Central and southern High Plains...
    Maximum daytime surface heating, and modest convergence along a
    trailing surface frontal boundary, will aid in the development of at
    least scattered thunderstorms amid a warm/well-mixed boundary layer.
    Vertical wind shear will be weak in this region. Nonetheless, 8-9
    C/km low-level lapse rates will support 1500+ J/kg SBCAPE and
    associated severe gust potential with the stronger, longer-lived
    multicellular complexes, especially where cold-pool mergers may
    occur. A couple instances of severe hail also cannot be ruled out.

    ...Northeast...
    A somewhat complex severe weather scenario exists for the Northeast,
    from Sunday morning into the afternoon hours. Scattered strong
    thunderstorms (perhaps a remnant MCS) may cross from southeastern
    Ontario and progress toward the Hudson Valley region during the
    morning. Should this occur, convective restrengthening is possible
    along the leading edge of outflow over the Mid Atlantic, with strong
    to potentially severe wind gusts likely. However, if convection
    moving into the Northeast by Sunday morning is less robust,
    convective re-intensification may be more likely farther north into
    southern New England. A more focused severe threat would be highly
    dependent on the placement and evolution of earlier convection/MCS
    morphology across Ontario during the late Day 1 period, which
    currently has low predictability. Despite weak vertical wind shear,
    of concern is the eastward advection of a modest EML into the
    Northeast, which may boost MLCAPE well over 3000 J/kg (perhaps over
    4000 J/kg locally). Higher severe probabilities may be needed if
    confidence in the placement and/or timing of more organized
    convection increases.

    The large-scale pattern across the CONUS on Tuesday will feature a
    strong ridge across the eastern CONUS and a deamplifying trough
    across the western CONUS. In between these features, a mid-level
    shortwave trough will traverse the central Rockies and be the
    primary focus for severe weather concern Tuesday afternoon/evening.

    At the surface, an elongated front will extend from the Northeast to
    the central Plains. This front will move southeast into parts of New
    England during the period, remain mostly stationary across the Great Lakes/Midwest, and start to move north as a warm front across the
    Plains as weak lee troughing occurs across eastern Colorado/Wyoming
    in response to the passing mid-level shortwave trough.

    ...Central High Plains...
    Weak to moderate destabilization is expected across the central High
    Plains on Tuesday afternoon/evening as temperatures warm into the
    upper 70s to low 80s with dewpoints in the low 60s. Inhibition
    should be mostly eroded by early afternoon with scattered to
    widespread thunderstorm development expected. The extensive nature
    of the convection, combined with only marginal shear (25 to 30
    knots) may result in a somewhat messy storm mode. However, early in
    the storm lifecycle, steep mid-level lapse rates and moderate
    instability may support some 2+ inch hail. As storms congeal, one or
    more forward-propagating clusters may develop with a threat for
    severe wind gusts.

    ...Iowa/northern Missouri into the Great Lakes...
    Moderate destabilization and weak shear will be present along the
    mostly stalled frontal zone during the afternoon and evening on
    Tuesday. Very warm temperatures aloft (-4C at 500mb) will be the
    primary limiting factor to a greater severe weather threat. However,
    enhanced forcing/flow in the vicinity of one or more MCVs (likely
    remaining from Day 1 convection) may provide focus for some strong
    to locally severe storms.

    ...Northeast...
    Temperatures are expected to warm into the upper 80s to near 90 with
    dewpoints in the low 70s across the Northeast on Tuesday
    afternoon/evening. Steep low-level lapse rates and moderately steep
    mid-level lapse rates should provide a thermodynamic environment
    favorable for strong updrafts. Shear should be mostly weak with less
    than 30 knots of tropospheric unidirectional flow. However, the
    moderate to strong instability and forcing along the front may be
    sufficient for a few stronger storms/clusters capable of damaging
    wind gusts.

    ...Carolinas vicinity...
    Some guidance suggests the potential for stronger storms across the
    Carolinas with relatively cooler mid level temperatures along the
    eastern periphery of the mid-level ridge. Southwestward moving
    storms within this pattern would be a climatologically rare
    phenomenon. While a few stronger storms are possible, warm
    temperatures around 750mb may limit storm coverage with convective
    temperatures around 100F based on RAP forecast soundings. The
    guidance with greater storm coverage has forecast dewpoints in the
    mid 70s and not as strong of a warm nose below 700mb. If this
    solution appears more likely, a marginal may eventually be needed,
    but this scenario appears too unlikely for probabilities at this
    time.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE CAROLINAS
    INTO PARTS OF THE FLORIDA PANHANDLE...SOUTHERN ALABAMA AND
    GEORGIA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe wind gusts are possible over much of the Southeast, with
    widely scattered strong to severe storms possible from the northern
    High Plains eastward toward the Mid Atlantic.

    ...Synopsis...
    A positive-tilt shortwave trough will weaken on Wednesday as it
    lifts out of the Great Basin and across the northern Plains.
    Meanwhile, an upper high over the OH/TN Valleys will also weaken.
    Areas of 30 kt midlevel winds will remain over parts of the northern
    Plains and Great Lakes around the northern periphery of the upper
    ridge, aiding movement of storms clusters throughout the period.

    At the surface, high pressure over Ontario and Quebec will result in
    cool/dry trajectories across the Great Lakes, with a boundary
    roughly from a low over NE eastward toward southern Lower MI and
    continuing into southern New England. A very moist air mass will
    remain south of this front, with 2000 J/kg MUCAPE common.

    South of the upper high, a low-latitude upper low is forecast to
    move across FL, with -10 C at 500 mb over FL, AL, GA and SC. This
    will boost instability further, exceeding 3000 J/kg in those areas
    with steepened midlevel lapse rates.

    ...Southeast...
    Strong instability will develop during the afternoon over much of
    the region, with 2000-3000 J/kg MLCAPE common. Of note will be
    midlevel lapse rates greater than 7.0 C/km, suggesting robust
    convection is likely. Storms are expected to form around 21Z over
    the high terrain, and within a surface trough during peak heating
    over the central Carolinas. Slow moving at first, storms will form
    into clusters, with erratic motions possible. However, a general
    southerly trends is expected. The high PWAT content, steep lapse
    rates, and favorable time of day all suggest areas of damaging
    microbursts will develop. As such, the area has been upgraded to a
    Slight Risk.

    Scattered storms are expected farther south into GA, AL, and the FL
    Panhandle as well, within a southwest extension of the surface
    trough, and, possibly with the sea breeze. Forecast soundings in
    this region similarly show very strong instability, with
    west/southwest moving storm clusters likely producing damaging wind
    gusts.

    ...Parts of the northern Plains...
    Areas of storms will be ongoing early in the day from NE eastward
    into IL/IN/OH, in a zone of warm advection around the periphery of
    the ridge. While moist and unstable, lapse rates will not be
    particularly steep aloft, but substantial moisture will continue to
    fuel bouts of storms redeveloping during the day from NE into
    SD/IA/southern MN, and some of this activity could produce marginal
    hail or wind.

    To the west, cells will develop during the late afternoon from over
    the northern to central High Plains, with hail potential as
    temperatures aloft will remain cool.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE CAROLINAS
    TO THE SOUTHEAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe wind gusts are possible over much of the Southeast, with
    widely scattered strong to severe storms possible from the northern
    High Plains eastward toward the Mid Atlantic.

    ...Synopsis...
    The CONUS pattern will feature a trough across the western CONUS and
    a strong ridge across the eastern CONUS Wednesday morning. This
    pattern will deamplify during the period. A strong mid-level jet
    streak will extend from northern Ontario to the Northeast with a
    weak upper-low over Florida. A mid-level shortwave trough will move
    from the central Plains to the western Great Lakes Wednesday
    afternoon/evening.

    ...Central/northern High Plains...
    A weak lee trough will extend from southeast Montana to northeast
    Colorado. Weak to moderate instability will develop along this zone
    during the afternoon and evening. Shear will be modest (25-30 knots)
    with a few multicell clusters possible. Isolated large hail and
    isolated severe wind gusts will be the primary hazards.

    ...Midwest into the western Great Lakes...
    Moderate to strong instability is expected to develop south of a
    warm front across the Midwest. A belt of 50+ knot mid-level flow is
    forecast to overspread the warm sector and provide sufficient shear
    for storm organization. In addition, some stronger low-level shear
    will develop as a low-level jet strengthens during the
    afternoon/evening. The stronger/more organized storms in the area
    could have some tornado threat, particularly if any backed flow can
    develop. At this time, the threat is expected too low for higher
    severe weather probabilities.

    ...Ohio Valley into the Mid-Atlantic...
    Additional storms are likely to develop within a moderate to
    strongly unstable environment along a frontal zone from the Midwest
    to the Mid-Atlantic. Shear will be mostly weak which should limit
    the overall threat. However, strong instability and a very moist
    environment may support some threat for wet microbursts.

    ...Carolinas into the Southeast...
    Extreme instability is expected to develop from the Carolinas into
    the Southeast amid mid to upper 70s dewpoints and temperatures in
    the 90s. This extreme instability and scattered to widespread storm
    development should be sufficient for a damaging wind threat. In
    addition, stronger mid-level northeasterly flow is expected across
    the eastern Carolinas into southern Georgia. This may result in even
    greater storm organization and clustering where the stronger shear
    is present. Some large hail is possible with damaging wind gusts as
    the primary threat.

    ...Florida...
    Cool temperatures aloft and moderate to potentially strong
    instability is expected to develop across the Florida Panhandle on
    Wednesday. Shear is forecast around 20 to 25 knots which may result
    in a few multicell clusters capable of damaging wind gusts. The
    greater threat should be mostly focused on the west coast where the
    sea-breeze convergence is stronger and shear is slightly greater
    amid westerly low-level flow.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER MUCH OF THE SOUTHEAST...AND FROM THE CENTRAL PLAINS INTO THE UPPER GREAT
    LAKES...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered strong storms are possible from the central Plains to
    Lower Michigan, over parts of the Southeast, and over parts of
    Montana on Thursday. Scattered damaging gusts appears to be the main
    concern.

    ...Synopsis...
    A weak upper low will remain over FL, with relatively cool midlevel temperatures over the Southeast, although warmer compared to the
    previous day. Otherwise, much of the east will remain beneath an
    upper ridge. Around the northern periphery of this ridge, modest
    southwest flow aloft will stretch from the central Plains into the
    Great Lakes and Northeast, with relatively warm temperatures aloft.
    To the west, a low-amplitude upper trough will push east across MT,
    steepening midlevel lapse rates.

    At the surface, an expansive area of moisture will persist from the
    central and southern Plains eastward to the Mid Atlantic, south of a
    cold front. This front will extend from KS into southern WI and
    Lower MI, and also from central NY into eastern PA.

    ...Much of the Southeast...
    Areas of thunderstorms may be ongoing early in the day over parts of
    AL, GA, and the FL Panhandle, with locally damaging gusts possible.
    Though any early convection may provide a relative stable area
    during the day, addition development is likely west through north,
    from MS into northern AL and northeastward across the Appalachians,
    VA/MD and the western Carolinas. Forecast soundings reveal a
    moderately unstable air mass. Predictability is a bit low to denote
    a Slight Risk given uncertainties with potential ongoing convection/stabilization, but portions of the region could need
    higher wind probabilities in later updates.

    ...Central Plains into the Lower Great Lakes...
    Daytime heating of a moist air mass will lead to over 2000 J/kg
    MUCAPE, with scattered to numerous storms along the boundary from
    central KS into IA, southern MN and WI. Multicellular clusters are
    expected due to little shear, but a bit stronger westerlies from IA
    into WI and lower MI could result in faster motions and perhaps a
    corridor of hail and wind. The primary concern will be locally
    damaging gusts across the entire area.

    ...Northeast MT...
    Steep deep-layer lapse rates will develop due to daytime heating as
    the upper trough nears, with cooling temperatures aloft. Storms are
    likely from west-central MT into eastern MT during the day, with the
    strongest instability near the weak surface trough across eastern
    MT. Deep mixed layers and modest westerly flow suggest a few storms
    may produce strong outflow, or small hail during the late afternoon
    and evening, perhaps as far east as western ND.

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered strong storms are possible from the central Plains to
    Lower Michigan, over parts of the Southeast, and over parts of
    Montana on Thursday. Scattered damaging gusts appears to be the main
    concern.

    ...Synopsis...
    A weak upper low will remain over Florida tomorrow, with relatively
    cool midlevel temperatures over the Southeast, although warmer
    compared to today. Otherwise, much of the east will remain beneath
    an upper ridge. Around the northern periphery of this ridge, modest
    southwest flow aloft will stretch from the central Plains into the
    Great Lakes and Northeast, with relatively warm temperatures aloft.
    To the west, a low-amplitude upper trough will push east across
    Montana.

    At the surface, an expansive area of moisture will persist from the
    central and southern Plains eastward to the Mid Atlantic, south of a
    cold front. This front will extend from KS into southern WI and
    Lower MI, and also from central NY into eastern PA.

    ...Mid Atlantic to the Southeast...
    A broad area of moderate to strong instability is forecast from the Mid-Atlantic to the Southeast on Thursday. Shear is expected to be
    very weak through the period, but moderate to strong instability and
    relatively steep mid-level lapse rates beneath the upper low will
    provide a thermodynamic environment favorable for some damaging wind
    gusts. More focused areas of strong to severe storms may exist near
    outflow boundaries from D1/Wednesday convection.

    ...Central/Southern Plains to the Great Lakes...
    Moderate to strong instability is forecast to develop along a
    frontal zone from Kansas to Wisconsin on Thursday afternoon/evening.
    Shear is expected to remain weak (20 to 25 knots), but strong
    instability will support the threat for some damaging wind gusts.
    Farther south, across western Oklahoma, shear will be very weak, but
    moderate instability and deep mixing (to around 600mb) will support
    some threat for downbursts and isolated wind gusts.

    ...Montana...
    Moderate mid-level flow is expected to overspread northern Montana
    on Thursday where a deeply mixed boundary layer (deeper than 3km) is
    forecast. While instability should be limited by meager moisture, it
    should be sufficient for a few storms. Moderate shear (25 to 30
    knots) and a deeply mixed boundary layer will support a threat for
    some severe wind gusts Thursday afternoon/evening.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER THE NORTHERN
    PLAINS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe storms producing large hail and locally damaging winds are
    forecast over parts of the northern Plains Friday afternoon and
    evening. Sporadic damaging gusts may also occur over parts of the
    Mid Atlantic and Southeast.

    ...Synopsis...
    A low amplitude trough will move across the northern Rockies and
    into the northern Plains on Friday, with 40+ kt 500 mb winds into
    the Dakotas. As this occurs, a surface trough will develop over the
    western Dakotas, providing a focus for thunderstorms during the day.
    To the east, a weaker wave will move from lower MI into the lower
    Great Lakes, with a surface low enhancing convergence/lift. The air
    mass will remain moist and unstable over much of the central and
    eastern CONUS, supporting scattered storms over much of the area.
    The strongest instability is expected over the northern Plains in
    advance of the upper system. Otherwise, a weak upper low will remain
    over GA/FL providing cool midlevel temperatures and aiding daytime
    storm development.

    ...Northern Plains...
    Strong heating will lead to an uncapped air mass within the surface
    trough, with scattered areas of storms developing from northeast CO
    into western NE and from the western into the central Dakotas.
    Supercells are most likely across the Dakotas beneath the stronger
    flow aloft, with the strongest cells producing very large hail and
    perhaps a brief tornado. Farther south across NE, CO and KS, deep
    mixed layers should favor strong outflow and localized wind damage.
    Storms may increase again during the evening over eastern ND and
    northern MN with increasing southwest flow at 850 mb late.

    ...Southeast and Mid Atlantic...
    A weak surface trough will develop from VA across the Carolinas and
    into GA with strong heating. A moist and unstable air mass will
    again favor areas of thunderstorms beneath the upper ridge. Lapse
    rates aloft and therefore total instability will not be as strong as
    previous days, but widely scattered strong to damaging gusts may
    still occur during the afternoon across the entire region.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS LATE FRIDAY INTO
    FRIDAY NIGHT ACROSS MUCH OF NORTH AND SOUTH DAKOTA INTO PARTS OF
    WESTERN MINNESOTA AND NORTH CENTRAL NEBRASKA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered strong thunderstorms, and perhaps one or two small
    organizing clusters, may impact parts of the northern Great Plains
    late Friday afternoon into Friday night, accompanied by a risk for
    severe hail and wind.

    ...Discussion...
    Although a mid to upper low is likely to linger across parts of the
    Southeast, perhaps migrating slowly northward across the northern
    Florida into Georgia vicinity, modest subtropical ridging at
    mid-levels will generally prevail across much of the central and
    southern tier of the U.S. through this period. Models indicate that
    modest mid-level westerlies will remain confined to the northern
    tier, with one embedded short wave trough forecast to slowly
    progress across the Great Lakes region. A couple of, perhaps, more
    subtle perturbations within a broader cyclonic regime are forecast
    to progress east-northeastward near and north of the Montana/North
    Dakota international border vicinity.

    In lower levels, a surface cold front, in the wake of a digging
    short wave trough well offshore of the northern Atlantic coast, may
    make further southward progress through portions of the northern Mid
    Atlantic states, before retreating northeastward late Friday through
    Friday night. Upstream, another cold front, likely into the upper
    Great Lakes vicinity and through much of the northern Great Plains
    by 12Z Friday, is forecast to continue to advance eastward across
    the Great Lakes through the remainder of the period, while the cool
    air gradually modifies from west to east across the Dakotas. In
    between and south of these boundaries, seasonably moist conditions,
    including upper 60s to 70+ F dew points, appear likely to persist
    across most areas east of the high plains.

    ...Northern Great Plains...
    Models indicate that low-level warming and moistening across the
    western into central Dakotas may contribute to strong potential
    instability by Friday afternoon, beneath warm elevated mixed-layer
    air advecting east of the northern Rockies, ahead of the broad
    approaching upstream mid-level troughing. This destabilization will
    become focused east of the modestly deep lee surface trough axis,
    along a developing warm frontal zone aided by strengthening
    differential surface heating.

    The northern periphery of the warmer and more strongly capping
    elevated mixed-layer air is forecast to nose across western through
    central South Dakota by early Friday evening.
    Lower/mid-tropospheric warm advection on the edge of this air mass
    may provide the focus for an upscale growing cluster of storms
    across north central South Dakota, or perhaps south central North
    Dakota, aided by a modestly strengthening low-level jet Friday
    evening. This would likely tend to propagate east-southeastward
    overnight, beneath strengthening westerly mid/upper flow (including
    30-40+ kt at 500 mb).

    Otherwise, widely scattered strong to severe thunderstorms,
    including a couple of supercells, may initiate near/east of the lee
    trough during the late afternoon into evening across the western
    Dakotas, and perhaps parts of north central Nebraska into
    northeastern Colorado, though this is a bit more uncertain due to
    potentially stronger mid-level inhibition.

    ...Lower Great Lakes Vicinity...
    Latest model output indicates that strengthening thunderstorm
    development is possible in a narrow pre-frontal corridor across
    parts of southwestern Ontario and southeastern Lower Michigan into
    northwestern Indiana and northwestern Ohio, near or after 28/00Z.
    Although this is after peak diurnal heating, moderately large
    residual CAPE, in the presence of southwesterly deep-layer mean flow strengthening to 20-30 kt, might become supportive of convection
    capable of producing a few locally strong to severe wind gusts,
    before storms weaken late Friday evening.

    ...Appalachians into Southeast...
    In the presence of relatively weak mid-level inhibition, forcing for
    ascent aided by orography and inland advancing sea breezes may
    support considerable diurnal thunderstorm development, as insolation
    within a seasonably moist boundary-layer contributes to moderate
    potential instability. Stronger convection will probably pose a
    risk for locally damaging downbursts, before activity weakens early
    Friday evening.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PORTIONS OF
    THE NORTHERN PLAINS INTO THE UPPER MIDWEST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered strong to severe thunderstorms will pose a risk for severe
    wind gusts and isolated large hail across parts of the northern
    Plains into the Upper Midwest Saturday afternoon into Saturday
    Night.

    ...Synopsis...
    A broad trough and stronger mid-level flow will overspread the
    northern Plains and Upper Midwest on Saturday. Weak ridging is
    expected across the Great Lakes with a weak shortwave trough
    traversing the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic. At the surface, a very
    moist airmass will be in place across much of the central and
    eastern CONUS. A weak surface low will be present across the
    northern Plains with an additional surface low across southern
    Quebec. A front will connect these 2 low-pressure centers through
    the southern Great Lakes region.

    ...Northern Plains into the Upper Midwest...
    Elevated thunderstorms will likely be ongoing at the beginning of
    the period across northern Minnesota at the nose of a low-level jet.
    In the wake of and southwest of this convection, moderate to strong
    instability is forecast to develop amid temperatures in the mid to
    upper 80s and dewpoints in the 70s. Weak height falls are forecast
    across the northern Plains on Saturday afternoon/evening. Isolated
    to scattered thunderstorms are likely, potentially focused on
    outflow from morning convection. Shear should be sufficient for
    supercells with any storms across North Dakota and northern
    Minnesota with weaker shear and perhaps more multicell storm mode
    across the eastern South Dakota and southern Minnesota vicinity.
    Severe wind gusts and isolated large hail will be the primary
    threat. The greatest large hail threat will be from northeast South
    Dakota to central Minnesota where the strongest overlap of shear and instability may result in a favorable zone for supercells.

    ...Mid Atlantic into the Northeast...
    Upper 60s to low 70s dewpoints are forecast from the Mid-Atlantic to
    the Northeast on Friday. Strong heating should result in moderate to potentially strong instability east of the Appalachians. Shear will
    be relatively weak across the Mid-Atlantic on Saturday with only
    weakly organized storm expected. Strong instability and scattered
    storm coverage will result in a threat for damaging wind gusts.
    Farther north, from eastern Pennsylvania and New Jersey into eastern
    New York, strong shear is forecast, but instability will not be as
    great. Therefore, a few more organized storms are possible, but
    weaker heating/low-level lapse rates will likely be a limiting
    factor to a greater severe weather threat.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS SATURDAY INTO
    SATURDAY NIGHT ACROSS CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN MINNESOTA...WEST CENTRAL WISCONSIN...MUCH OF SOUTH DAKOTA AND ADJACENT PORTIONS OF NORTHERN
    NEBRASKA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered strong to severe thunderstorms, perhaps including one or
    two organizing clusters, will pose a risk for severe hail, wind and
    perhaps a couple of tornadoes across parts of the middle Missouri
    Valley into Upper Midwest Saturday afternoon into Saturday night.

    ...Discussion...
    Models indicate that the stronger westerlies will remain confined to
    the northern mid-latitudes. There may be some amplification in the
    flow across the northeastern Pacific into British Columbia and the
    Pacific Northwest by the end of the period. However, a zonal regime
    is likely to generally persist near the Canadian/U.S. border, along
    the northern periphery of modest mid-level ridging encompassing the
    subtropics through much of the southern mid-latitudes of the U.S.

    One embedded short wave trough is still forecast to progress east of
    the lower Great Lakes vicinity, through the St. Lawrence Valley and
    northern New England, Saturday through Saturday night. Models
    indicate that this will be accompanied by an initially modest, but
    weakening, surface cyclone, with a trailing intrusion of cooler,
    drier boundary-layer air spreading southeast of the lower Great
    Lakes region toward northern Mid Atlantic coastal areas, while
    relatively cool/dry air associated with a prior intrusion is slow to
    lose influence across northern New England.

    Upstream, low-amplitude larger-scale mid-level troughing is forecast
    to progress eastward along the central Canadian/U.S. border
    vicinity, with at least a couple of embedded shorter-wavelength
    perturbations. One notable convectively generated or augmented
    perturbation may be overspreading portions of north central
    Minnesota into northern Wisconsin at the outset of the period, near
    the southern leading edge of this regime. The convectively
    reinforced trailing flank of the Great Lakes cold front may be slow
    to modify/retreat eastward across the Upper Midwest, as another
    upstream cold front advances south of the international border.

    ...Upper Midwest into northern Great Plains...
    There appears a better consensus within model output that a
    low-level baroclinic zone, generated or reinforced by convective
    outflow, may be initially stalled across the west central through
    southeastern Minnesota vicinity, in the wake of a dissipating
    cluster of storms. Thereafter, it may slowly retreat
    northeastward/eastward through the day, while also becoming a focus
    for strengthening differential heating.

    There remains at least some spread among the latest model output
    concerning the warmth of temperatures around 700 mb, near the northern/northeastern periphery of a plume of elevated mixed-layer
    air, which may continue to increase mid-level inhibition across
    South Dakota through southern Minnesota, before gradually becoming
    suppressed southward by late Saturday night. However, a belt of
    convectively augmented (30-50 Kt) southwesterly to westerly flow in
    the 850-500 mb layer is forecast to slowly overspread the low-level
    baroclinic zone through and beyond peak diurnal destabilization.

    Supported by surface dew points around or above 70 F, moderate to
    large mixed-layer CAPE appears likely to develop, coincident with a
    corridor of strong shear, including sizable clockwise curved
    low-level hodographs along the boundary. If forcing for ascent and
    heating, beneath broadly difluent mid/upper flow overspreading the
    Upper Midwest, is able to overcome inhibition, supercells posing a
    risk for severe hail and a couple of tornadoes appear possible
    across parts of central Minnesota, before perhaps growing upscale
    into an organizing cluster while propagating into west central
    Wisconsin by late Saturday evening.

    Upstream, potential convective developments remain more unclear.
    However, there appears a general signal within the model output that convection, emerging from the more deeply mixed environment across
    the high plains, could intensify while acquiring more moist and
    potentially unstable updraft inflow, along/north of a remnant
    outflow boundary or front across southern South Dakota or far
    northern Nebraska Saturday evening. Generally becoming focused
    along the periphery of the increasingly suppressed, more strongly
    capping elevated mixed-layer air, thermodynamic profiles
    characterized by steep lapse rates and large CAPE may become
    supportive of an organizing convective system, aided by forcing for
    ascent associated with warm advection.

    ...Northern Mid Atlantic into Champlain Valley vicinity...
    There remain mixed signals within the model output, including
    convection allowing guidance, concerning the extent of the
    convective potential within deepening pre-frontal surface troughing
    across the region by Saturday afternoon. The more substantive
    destabilization may remain focused across the northern Mid Atlantic,
    to the south of the better deep-layer shear. However, it still
    appears that the environment will probably become conducive to at
    least widely scattered vigorous storms accompanied by a risk for
    potentially damaging wind gusts.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM CENTRAL IOWA
    INTO THE WESTERN UPPER PENINSULA OF MICHIGAN....

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered strong to severe storms appear possible Sunday from the
    central Great Plains into the upper Great Lakes region, with at
    least some potential for the evolution of a large, organized severe
    storm cluster across parts of the mid into lower Missouri Valley and
    central Great Plains late Sunday through Sunday night.

    ...Synopsis...
    A mid-level trough will amplify across the northern Plains on
    Sunday. At the surface, a cold front will advance slowly east across
    the northern Plains and Upper Midwest.

    ...Central Plains to the Upper Midwest...
    Very strong to potentially extreme instability is forecast from the
    central Plains to the Upper Midwest on Sunday. Weak tropospheric
    flow is forecast across much of Nebraska, Kansas, and Missouri on
    Sunday. This should limit storm organization with only
    isolated/widely scattered severe wind gusts possible within this
    large zone of marginal risk.

    Mid-level flow is forecast to be somewhat stronger across northern
    Iowa, but still relatively weak. This may result in slightly more
    organized convection where very strong to extreme instability is
    also present. Therefore, the slight risk was expanded south to cover
    this threat, particularly since scattered to widespread storm
    coverage is anticipated. Instability will not be as strong farther
    north across Wisconsin, but stronger mid-level flow (30-35 knots)
    will be present, which may result in a few rotating updrafts and/or
    bowing line segments capable of isolated large hail and severe wind
    gusts.

    ...Mid-Atlantic...
    Moderate to strong instability is forecast to develop across
    portions of the Mid-Atlantic on Sunday. A very moist environment
    will be in place with PWAT values over 2 inches and dewpoints in the
    mid 70s. Therefore, wet microburts will be possible with the
    strongest storms which develop Sunday afternoon/evening.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE UPPER
    MIDWEST INTO THE LOWER MISSOURI VALLEY...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered strong to severe storms are possible Sunday from the
    central Plains into the upper Great Lakes region, with some
    potential for the evolution of a large, organized severe storm
    cluster across parts of the mid into lower Missouri Valley and
    central Great Plains late Sunday through Sunday night.

    ...Synopsis...
    An amplifying midlevel trough will advance east-southeastward from
    the north-central Plains toward the Upper MS Valley through the
    period. Related large-scale ascent will overspread the Middle/Upper
    MS Valley, while a related cold front moves southeastward across the
    region.

    ...Upper Midwest...
    In the wake of several overnight storm clusters and related cloud
    debris, gradual clearing should support boundary-layer
    destabilization and the development of moderate-strong surface-based
    buoyancy. As the cold front intercepts this increasing buoyancy,
    around 30 kt of deep-layer shear should favor a few organized
    clusters capable of producing widely scattered damaging wind gusts
    during the afternoon.

    ...Central Plains to the Middle/Lower Missouri Valley...
    A separate area of thunderstorms is expected along the front in IA
    and the Lower MO Valley during the late afternoon into the overnight
    hours. Ahead of these evolving storms, lower/middle 70s dewpoints
    beneath steep midlevel lapse rates will contribute to strong-extreme surface-based buoyancy. Initial storms will be capable of producing
    isolated large hail and locally severe wind gusts. However,
    strengthening deep-layer shear accompanying the digging midlevel
    trough, coupled with an increasing low-level jet, will support the
    development of a southward-moving MCS into the overnight hours. The
    Slight risk was expanded southward to account for this scenario, and
    higher wind probabilities may eventually be needed as the scenario
    becomes more clear.

    Farther west, semi-discrete storms are expected over the central
    High Plains during the afternoon. Elongated/straight hodographs and
    moderate surface-based buoyancy should favor large hail with any
    supercell structures that can develop.

    ...Mid-Atlantic...
    Despite marginal deep-layer flow/shear, diurnal heating amid deep
    tropospheric moisture (around 2 inch PW) will favor wet microbursts
    and the potential for wind damage with the stronger thunderstorms.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE MIDWEST
    TO THE MID-ATLANTIC...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered strong to severe thunderstorms are possible across parts
    of the Ohio Valley, Midwest and the Mid-Atlantic on Monday.

    ...Synopsis...
    A mid-level trough will amplify as it moves into the Great Lakes on
    Monday with a persistent ridge across the western CONUS and a closed
    low off the California coast. At the surface, a cold front will move
    through the Midwest and Great Lakes.

    ...Midwest into the Great Lakes...
    Moderate instability is forecast to develop ahead of a cold front
    across the western Great Lakes/Midwest Monday afternoon as
    temperatures warm into the low 80s with dewpoints in the 70s.
    Mid-level lapse rates will not be that steep, but instability and
    forcing should be sufficient to support some strong updrafts. 30 to
    40 knots of mid-level flow across the warm sector will lead to
    modest shear which could result in multicell clusters capable of
    damaging wind gusts. 00Z CAM guidance suggest the potential for
    storms ahead of and along the front with some post-frontal storms
    also possible across Wisconsin beneath the colder air aloft. This
    cooler air aloft may result in isolated large hail from the
    post-frontal storms.

    ...Mid Atlantic...
    Despite weak deep-layer flow/shear, a few wet microbursts will be
    possible east of the Appalachians during the afternoon, where steep
    low-level lapse rates will develop amid deep/rich tropospheric
    moisture (PW around 2 inches).

    of the cold front, adequate moisture and overall instability will be

    presence of modest vertical wind shear, a few of the storms could
    become strong to locally severe. Thunderstorms may also develop
    north of a surface low along the CA/OR border, amid an unstable
    airmass supportive of scattered strong thunderstorms.

    ...Midwest into the OH Valley...
    Preceding an advancing cold front, diurnal heating of a moist
    boundary layer, atop relatively poor mid-level lapse rates, will
    result in airmass destabilization and 1500-3000 J/kg SBCAPE by
    afternoon. While MLCINH will minimize by late morning, the poor
    mid-level lapse rates suggest that CAPE should be constrained to
    tall/thin profiles. Furthermore, unidirectional vertical wind
    profiles with little strengthening with height, should lead to
    mediocre deep-layer shear. While many scattered storms should
    develop along the cold front, and ahead in the uncapped warm sector,
    most storms should be pulse-cellular to multicellular in nature. A
    few of the stronger storms may support wet downbursts capable of
    producing localized damaging gusts.

    ...Mid-Atlantic...
    Similar to the Great Lakes/OH Valley vicinity, strong boundary-layer
    heating will quickly reduce convective inhibition and support
    scattered thunderstorm development amid weak vertical wind shear.
    2000+ J/kg of tall/thin SBCAPE will support wet downburst potential,
    and a couple of damaging wind gusts are possible.

    ...Southern Plains...
    Scattered thunderstorms should develop by afternoon peak heating
    ahead of the trailing cold front over the southern Plains. Surface
    temperatures should warm to near 90 F amid low to mid 70s F
    dewpoints, yielding as much as 3000-4000 J/kg MLCAPE given modest
    mid-level lapse rates. Though vertical wind shear should be
    relatively poor, the strong buoyancy in place may compensate to
    support wet downbursts and associated isolated severe gusts with the
    stronger storms.

    ...Northern California into Southern Oregon...
    Scattered thunderstorms will develop immediately north of a weak
    surface low, where localized forcing for ascent will be in place.
    These thunderstorms should develop atop a mixed boundary layer that
    may deepen to 600-500 mb. Furthermore, the presence of 9+ C/km lapse
    rates through the troposphere may promote enough
    thermodynamically-driven downward momentum transport to support
    isolated strong to severe wind gusts. Point forecast soundings also
    depict curved/elongated hodographs, which may support multicells and
    transient supercells with a marginal hail threat.

    Valid 011200Z - 021200Z

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PORTIONS OF
    THE MID-ATLANTIC...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered strong to severe storms are possible across parts of the
    Mid-Atlantic into the Northeast on Tuesday afternoon/evening. An
    isolated severe storm may also occur over parts of the central High
    Plains.

    ...Synopsis...
    A mid-level trough will traverse from the Great Lakes to the
    Northeast on Tuesday. At the surface, a cold front will move from
    the Great Lakes/Ohio Valley to the Appalachians during the day and
    eventually into the Atlantic by the late evening.

    ...Carolinas to the Northeast...
    A very moist airmass will be in place ahead of the cold front on
    Tuesday. Moderate instability is expected to develop across the
    region as the boundary layer warms during the afternoon. Mid-level
    flow will only be around 20 knots across southern Virginia into the
    Carolinas. Therefore, while a few stronger storms may result in
    damaging wind gusts, overall storm organization is expected to be
    limited. From northern Virginia into the Northeast, stronger
    mid-level flow (40 to 45 knots) will support greater storm
    organization. The best overlap between the sufficient shear and
    greatest instability will be across northern Virginia into eastern
    Pennsylvania and New Jersey. A very moist profile will support
    water-loaded downdrafts capable of damaging wind producing
    microbursts. A more organized linear segment will likely result in a
    greater severe weather threat in the Mid-Atlantic region.

    A conditionally greater severe weather threat is possible farther
    northeast across Vermont/New Hampshire and vicinity. If 1500+ J/kg
    MLCAPE can develop across this region, more substantial severe
    weather is possible given the stronger shear and closer proximity to
    the surface low across southeast Canada.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PORTIONS OF
    THE MID-ATLANTIC...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered strong to severe storms are possible across parts of the
    Mid-Atlantic into the Northeast on Tuesday afternoon/evening. An
    isolated severe storm may also occur over parts of the central High
    Plains.

    ...Synopsis...
    A mid-level trough will traverse the Northeast as an upper ridge
    persists over the central U.S. and a mid-level low meanders over CA
    tomorrow (Tuesday). The East Coast mid-level trough will encourage
    the eastward advancement of a cold front, which will provide enough
    lift for scattered to widespread thunderstorm development across the
    Carolinas into the Northeast. Rich low-level moisture preceding the
    front will encourage enough buoyancy, amid marginal but adequate
    vertical wind shear, to support strong thunderstorms, some of which
    could be severe. A couple of strong to severe storms are possible
    along the periphery of the upper ridge over parts of the northern
    Rockies into the central High Plains.

    ...Northeast into the Southeast...
    As the surface cold front advances eastward across the eastern U.S.,
    surface temperatures will warm into the 80s F to near 90 F, amid 70+
    F dewpoints from the Southeast to the Mid-Atlantic, boosting SBCAPE
    into the 2000-3500 J/kg range by afternoon peak heating. Relatively
    poor mid-level lapse rates will limit CAPE to tall/thin profiles.
    However, the magnitude of buoyancy, combined with widespread
    thunderstorm coverage over a large area, will foster ample
    opportunity for at least isolated damaging gusts with wet
    downbursts, from the Southeast to New England. A more concentrated
    area of damaging gust potential exists over parts of the
    Mid_Atlantic, where a Category 2/Slight Risk remains in place. Here,
    line segments are expected to organize amid a region of maximum
    buoyancy and 30 kts of effective bulk shear, driven by stronger west-southwesterly mid-level flow grazing the area.

    ...Portions of the Northern Rockies...
    Mid-level monsoonal moisture is forecast to crest the upper ridge
    amid modest 500 mb west-southwesterly flow over parts of the
    Northern Rockies, where guidance consensus shows PWATs reaching 0.8
    inches in spots. High-based thunderstorms will develop by afternoon
    peak heating, atop a well-mixed boundary layer extending to 500 mb
    via inverted-v thermodynamic profiles. The aforementioned mid-level
    moisture, combined with steep tropospheric lapse rates, will support
    over 500 J/kg MLCAPE. This buoyancy may support robust enough
    updrafts and subsequent storm cores in an environment where ample
    evaporative cooling may take place to support isolated severe gusts.

    ...Central High Plains...
    Low-level upslope flow, along with strong diurnal heating, and the
    passage of a small impulse embedded in the upper ridge, will all
    serve as mechanisms for convective initiation tomorrow afternoon.
    Though storms should be isolated, they will develop amid 8 C/km low
    and mid-level lapse rates that will boost MLCAPE into the 1500-2500
    J/kg range. Modest directional vertical wind shear will support
    somewhat curved/elongated hodographs and around 35 kts of effective
    bulk shear. As such, a few multicells/transient supercells may
    develop and produce isolated severe wind/hail.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM EASTERN
    OREGON TO NORTHERN MONTANA AND FAR NORTHWEST NORTH DAKOTA AND FROM
    THE UPPER MIDWEST TO THE CENTRAL GREAT LAKES....

    ...SUMMARY...
    At least scattered storms are possible across a large portion of the continental U.S. on Wednesday. A couple of severe gusts may
    accompany the stronger storms over portions of the Northern Rockies
    and the Upper Midwest to central Michigan region.

    ...Synopsis...
    A ridge centered across the northern Plains will drift slowly east
    through the period. To the east of this ridge, a mid-level trough
    and associated jet streak will dig into the Great Lakes. To the west
    of this ridge, several embedded shortwave troughs are forecast
    within moderate southwesterly flow.

    ...Eastern Oregon to northern Montana and far northwest North
    Dakota...
    Scattered thunderstorms are forecast within a zone of steep
    low/mid-level lapse rates from eastern Oregon into much of Montana.
    Effective shear of 25 to 30 knots will support some storm maintenance/organization including the potential for multicell
    clusters. A hot and well-mixed boundary layer featuring 40-50F
    dewpoint depressions will support some threat for isolated severe
    wind gusts from this activity. However, weak instability should
    limit a greater severe weather threat.

    ...Upper Midwest across Lake Michigan and much of central/northern
    Lower Michigan...
    Elevated thunderstorms may be ongoing at the beginning of the period
    across eastern South Dakota/western Iowa on the nose of the
    low-level jet. This activity should weaken during the morning. Weak
    to moderate instability is forecast do develop during the afternoon
    from the Upper Midwest to northern/central Lower Michigan. A weak
    mid-level shortwave trough is forecast to move southeastward across
    this region Wednesday afternoon. As this occurs, isolated to
    potentially scattered thunderstorms are possible. 35 to 40 knots of
    mid-level flow may support some storm organization, including the
    potential for transient supercells. Isolated large hail and damaging
    wind gusts will be the primary threat.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PORTIONS

    ...SUMMARY...
    At least scattered storms are possible across a large portion of the continental U.S. on Wednesday. Isolated severe gusts may accompany
    the stronger storms over portions of the Northern Rockies and the
    Upper Midwest to central Michigan region.

    ...Synopsis...
    A mid-level trough will amplify while tracking toward New England,
    with an upper ridge poised to build over the central U.S. as another
    mid-level trough impinges on the Pacific Northwest tomorrow
    (Wednesday). Widespread, rich low-level moisture will encourage at
    least scattered thunderstorm development across much of the CONUS.
    However, the best chance for strong to isolated severe thunderstorms
    will be over parts of the Northern Rockies and the Upper
    Midwest/Great Lakes regions. Here, low-level moisture and
    instability will best overlap with modest mid-level westerly flow
    along the periphery of the upper ridge, where some vertical wind
    shear will be present to encourage storm organization.

    ...Portions of the Northern Rockies...
    Through the day, surface heating will support mixing of a dry
    boundary layer, which may deepen to 500 mb in spots. Tropospheric
    lapse rates will steepen to around 9 C/km, boosting SBCAPE into the
    500-1500 J/kg range. High-based thunderstorms should develop by
    afternoon peak heating. Modest mid-level flow along the periphery of
    the ridge will overspread the dry boundary layer, resulting in
    elongated, straight hodographs and 30 kts of effective bulk shear.
    Multicell structures or perhaps a transient supercell will be the
    likely storm modes. Given the dry boundary layer, the stronger storm
    cores may produce a few severe gusts.

    ...Upper Midwest into the Great Lakes...
    Along the eastern periphery of the upper ridge, broad northwesterly
    mid/upper flow will overspread the Upper Midwest and Great Lakes
    region during the afternoon. Modest low-level moisture and mid-level
    lapse rates will contribute to 1000-2000 J/kg MLCAPE by afternoon
    peak heating. A belt of stronger northwesterly 500 mb flow will
    overspread the Great Lakes as the eastern trough deepens in the
    18-00Z time frame, contributing to vertical speed shear and
    elongated, straight hodographs. Over 30 kts of unidirectional
    effective bulk shear will support multicells capable of producing a
    few instances of severe wind and/or hail.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PORTIONS
    OF THE NORTHERN PLAINS...THE SOUTHWESTERN GREAT LAKES...AND THE
    NORTHEAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered storms capable of large hail and severe wind gusts are
    forecast across the Northeast on Thursday. Isolated severe wind
    gusts are also possible in the Northern Plains and parts of the
    Upper Midwest into the southwestern Great Lakes.

    ...Synopsis...
    A strong upper-level trough will translate slowly east across the
    central CONUS on Thursday. To the east, a strong upper-level trough
    will amplify across eastern Canada with a strong mid-level jet
    streak moving across the Northeast. Farther west, several mid-level
    troughs will traverse the southwesterly flow across the Rockies with
    widespread thunderstorm activity expected.

    ...Northeast...
    Weak to potentially moderate instability is forecast to develop
    across the Northeast on Thursday ahead of a southeastward moving
    cold front. Scattered storms are expected along and ahead of the
    surface front as forcing for ascent increases across the Northeast.
    These storms will likely be mostly multicellular due to modest shear
    and instability. However, if some greater instability can develop
    beneath the compact but strong 50 knot mid-level jet streak, a few
    supercells may also be possible. Isolated large hail and damaging
    wind gusts will be the primary threat from the storms across the
    Northeast.

    ...Southwestern Great Lakes...
    A reservoir of low to mid 70s dewpoints is forecast to develop
    across Iowa, eastern Minnesota, and Wisconsin Thursday afternoon.
    Strong heating will likely result in strong instability across the
    region. Forcing for storm development remains somewhat questionable
    at this time. However, moderate shear will support the potential
    for supercells with any storms that develop. Therefore, a
    conditionally greater severe weather threat is possible, but
    questions regarding storm coverage preclude higher probabilities at
    this time.

    ...Northern Plains...
    Strong instability is forecast to develop across the northern Plains
    on Thursday as upper 60s to low 70s dewpoints advect into western
    North Dakota. High-based thunderstorms will likely develop during
    the afternoon as a mid-level shortwave trough approaches the region.
    Effective shear will be relatively weak but steep low and mid-level
    lapse rates and strong instability will support a threat for
    isolated severe wind gusts Thursday afternoon/evening.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS THURSDAY AFTERNOON
    AND EVENING OVER PORTIONS OF THE NORTHEAST US...AND OVER PARTS OF
    NORTH DAKOTA....

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered storms capable of severe wind gusts and hail are forecast
    across the Northeast US and North Dakota on Thursday.

    ...Northeast...
    A shortwave trough currently over western Ontario will track
    southeastward across the Great Lakes on Thursday. Increasing large
    scale forcing will overspread parts of PA/NY and New England through
    the day, promoting afternoon thunderstorm development along an
    approaching cold front. A warm/humid air mass will be present ahead
    of the front, with steep low-level lapse rates and sufficient CAPE
    to pose a risk of damaging wind gusts and perhaps some hail. Given
    trends in 12z model guidance regarding thunderstorm coverage, have
    added a SLGT risk for portions of the region.

    ...ND...
    A prominent mid-level ridge will be established over the central US
    tomorrow. Model guidance suggests a subtle shortwave trough will
    track into eastern MT during the afternoon and top the ridge
    overnight. Southerly low-level winds will help to draw moisture
    northward into ND by late afternoon, resulting in a reservoir of
    strong instability. Thunderstorms are expected to develop over
    western ND posing a risk of large hail and damaging winds. Several
    12z HREF members suggest the risk of upscale growth and a bowing MCS
    tracking eastward across ND overnight.

    ...Upper MS Valley...
    A weak/diffuse low-level baroclinic zone will extend from southeast
    MN into IL on Thursday. Strengthening southwesterly low-level winds
    will enhance warm advection by early evening, leading to scattered thunderstorms. A few of these storms could be strong, posing a risk
    of gusty winds and hail.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE CENTRAL
    PLAINS TO THE UPPER MIDWEST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered strong to severe thunderstorms are expected across
    portions of the northern Plains and Upper Midwest on Friday.

    ...Synopsis...
    A strong upper-trough will move off the northeast CONUS into the
    western Atlantic on Friday. Meanwhile, a ridge will move across the
    Great Lakes with a trough across the northern Plains into the Upper
    Midwest. An additional mid-level trough will move across the
    Northwest.

    ...Central Plains into the Upper Midwest...
    As a mid-level trough moves across the northern Plains, a surface
    low will deepen across eastern North Dakota on Friday. Ahead of this
    surface low and associated cold front, strong instability is
    forecast with dewpoints in the low 70s and temperatures in the low
    80s. Widespread thunderstorm activity is anticipated along this
    frontal zone as ascent overspreads the front with an uncapped warm
    sector. Some embedded shortwave jet streaks will move through the
    southwesterly flow across the warm sector. Within these zones of
    stronger mid-level flow, shear may be more favorable and support a
    greater severe weather threat. However, the locations of these
    mesoscale regions with a more favorable environment remain uncertain
    at this time.

    ...ID/MT...
    A strong shortwave trough will track into the western states on
    Friday, promoting scattered afternoon thunderstorm development over
    parts of the northern Great Basin and northern Rockies. There is
    some concern for a few storms capable of damaging winds and hail
    over the region Friday evening, but model solutions remain to
    diverse to add a risk area at this time.

    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER PARTS OF
    THE CENTRAL AND NORTHERN PLAINS TOWARD THE UPPER MISSISSIPPI
    VALLEY...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Scattered strong to severe thunderstorms are expected mainly over
    the central to northern Plains, and perhaps late toward the upper
    Mississippi Valley.

    ...Synopsis...
    A trio of shortwave troughs will affect parts of the northern CONUS
    on Friday, with widely-scattered strong to severe storms most likely
    with the system moving across the Plains. This wave will lift
    northeastward out of the high Plains during the day, with temporary
    shortwave ridging over the upper MS Valley. Temperatures aloft will
    remain relatively warm, though some cooling will occur over the
    western Dakotas and NE.

    At the surface, a cold front will slowly develop into the western
    Dakotas during the day, with a trough extending southward along the
    CO/KS border. This front will push into NE and western MN overnight, maintaining a focus for continues storms. Southerly winds will
    maintain substantial low-level moisture ahead of the front with
    dewpoints from the mid 60s to lower 70s F contributing to moderate
    overall instability.

    ...Dakotas into MN...
    Storms are likely to develop near the surface trough from central NE
    into SD, and especially near the cold front over ND where lift will
    be strongest. Instability will also be stronger from ND into
    northern MN, and mixed storms modes may produce both damaging gusts
    and isolated hail. This activity will likely persist through the
    nigh across much of western and northern MN, with perhaps more
    isolated storms persisting farther south into southern MN/western
    IA.

    ...NE into western KS...
    Strong heating and low-level convergence within the surface trough
    will combine with a moist air mass and support least isolated
    afternoon storms from far eastern CO into western KS and vicinity.
    Shear will be weak, with veering winds with height supporting southeastward-propagating storms capable of locally strong gusts.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PORTIONS OF
    THE NORTHERN HIGH PLAINS...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Strong to severe storms are likely across portions of the northern
    High Plains tomorrow (Saturday), with hail and wind being the main
    concerns. Isolated damaging gusts may also accompany the stronger
    storms over the Upper Midwest.

    ...Synopsis...
    Generally zonal mid-level flow will overspread the northern CONUS as
    an upper trough impinges on the West Coast tomorrow (Saturday). A
    pair of mid-level impulses will traverse the zonal flow, with one
    impulse passing over the Great Lakes as the other impulse ejects
    into the Northern High Plains. Over both locations, adequate
    moisture and instability will be in place to support strong
    thunderstorms. The best chance for severe thunderstorms will be over
    the northern High Plains, where stronger vertical wind shear will
    encourage storm organization.

    ...Northern into the central High Plains...
    A belt of strong westerly 500 mb flow will overspread MT into the
    northern High Plains Saturday afternoon with the passage of the
    aforementioned mid-level impulse. A surface low will develop
    somewhere across northern WY into southern MT, promoting moist
    southeasterly low-level flow beneath the stronger mid-level
    westerlies, resulting in over 50 kts of effective bulk shear.
    Adequate low-level moisture, overspread by 8+ C/km low to mid-level
    lapse rates, will boost MLCAPE to over 2000 J/kg in spots. The
    moderate instability and strong deep-layer shear will promote
    supercells and bowing segments capable of producing some severe wind
    and hail. A tornado is also possible with the longer-lived, dominant supercells.

    Farther south into the central High Plains, deep-layer ascent and
    shear should be considerably weaker, resulting in a lower coverage
    of relatively less organized multicellular clusters. Storms here
    should be high-based, overspreading a dry boundary layer deepening
    into the 700-500 mb range by afternoon peak heating. Isolated severe
    gusts are possible with the stronger multicellular clusters, and an
    instance or two of severe hail cannot be ruled out.

    ...Great Lakes into the central Plains...
    A weak surface cold front, associated with a surface low over the
    Great Lakes, will progress southeastward across the western Great
    Lakes into the central Plains as the eastern mid-level impulse
    glances by to the north. Flow closer to the surface and aloft, and
    thus vertical wind shear, will not be overly strong ahead of the
    front. However, rich low-level moisture amid afternoon surface
    heating will promote 2000-3000 J/kg MLCAPE and minimal convective
    inhibition. Scattered multicells should develop along/ahead of the
    front through the afternoon, the stronger storms of which may
    produce wet downbursts and accompanying isolated damaging gusts.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ON SATURDAY FROM
    CENTRAL MONTANA AND NORTHEAST WYOMING INTO THE WESTERN DAKOTAS AND
    THE NEBRASKA PANHANDLE...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Strong to severe storms are likely across portions of the northern
    High Plains tomorrow (Saturday), with hail and wind being the main
    concerns. Isolated damaging gusts may also accompany the stronger
    storms over the Upper Midwest.

    ...Northern High Plains...
    The prominent shortwave trough currently tracking across southeast
    OR will top the ridge over the northern High Plains on Saturday. As
    this happens, large scale forcing will overspread much of eastern
    MT/WY into the Dakotas. Deep southeasterly low-level winds into
    this region will result in a corridor of moderate instability from
    northeast WY into central MT, where steep low and mid-level lapse
    rates will contribute to MLCAPE values over 2000 J/kg.
    Thunderstorms will begin increasing by early afternoon, with storms
    spreading into the Dakotas by evening. Supercells and bowing
    structures are expected, with a risk of large hail and damaging wind
    gusts.

    ...Upper Midwest...
    Current water vapor loop shows a weak shortwave trough over eastern
    WY. This feature will strengthen and move into the upper Midwest
    tomorrow. A surface cold front will extend from northeast IA into
    central WI by afternoon, providing the focus for scattered
    thunderstorm development. Mid-level lapse rates will be weak, but
    ample low-level moisture should provide sufficient CAPE for a few
    strong storms capable of gusty/damaging winds. A few of the 12z CAM
    solutions suggest a few organized storm clusters and some potential
    for a zone of greater severe concern from northeast IA into
    southwest WI. Will maintain MRGL risk for now, but monitor for an
    upgrade in later outlooks.

    ...Southern High Plains...
    Scattered afternoon thunderstorms are expected on Saturday across
    much of the southern High Plains from eastern CO into southwest KS,
    the TX Panhandle, and eastern NM. Forecast soundings show steep
    low-level lapse rates and sufficient northwest flow aloft for some
    convective organization. Multiple clusters of storms capable of
    gusty/damaging winds and hail are expected. Parts of this region
    may need an upgrade to SLGT as mesoscale details become more clear.
