649 ACUS48 KWNS 100825 SWOD48 SPC AC 100824 Day 4-8 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0324 AM CDT Sun Aug 10 2025 Valid 131200Z - 181200Z ...DISCUSSION... From Wednesday/D4 into Thursday/D5, a shortwave trough is forecast to move from the Pacific Northwest across MT and over the far northern Plains, with an upper speed max developing into southern SK and MB. In advance of this trough, a leading trough affecting the Great Lakes region will also lift northeastward, with height rises and a warming pattern across parts of the Plains and upper Midwest. The combination of increasing dewpoints and the upper trough glancing the region may result in some manner of severe risk late Thursday/D5, and most likely from parts of ND into northern MN, and in evening/overnight MCS form. Future model trends will be monitored for a possible risk area. From Friday/D6 onward, predictability decreases with the motion of the aforementioned upper wave. However, large instability is likely to again build across the Mid MO/Upper MS Valleys, and at least sporadic severe storms cannot be ruled out from the northern High Plains eastward toward the Upper Great Lakes. ..Jewell.. 08/10/2025
