An upper ridge will build across the Southwest and remain in place this upcoming week into next weekend. Relatively zonal mid-level flow will persist over the northern CONUS through the extended forecast period, with multiple embedded impulses expected to track eastward within the zonal flow. As the mid-level impulses traverse the northern Plains, isolated strong to severe storm development will be possible given the presence of ample buoyancy. However, there are appreciable differences in the placement and timing of these impulses among medium-range guidance members. Therefore, severe probabilities have been withheld since confidence is currently low regarding where and when organized clusters of severe storms will develop. ..Squitieri.. 07/05/2025
