641 ACUS48 KWNS 090947 SWOD48 SPC AC 090945 Day 4-8 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0345 AM CST Sat Nov 09 2024 Valid 121200Z - 171200Z ...DISCUSSION... Guidance agreement has increased with regard to poor-quality moisture return ahead of an upper trough ejecting from the West into the central states on D4-5/Tuesday-Wednesday. A preceding surface ridge into the Gulf Coast region appears likely to inhibit appreciable poleward advection of Gulf moisture through D5. While differences remain in the evolution of the upper trough, guidance has markedly shifted north with cyclogenesis centered on the northern Great Plains. This setup appears unlikely to support an organized severe threat. Late week, the next broad upper trough has above-average agreement in reaching the West Coast. Guidance indicates potentially greater low-level moisture return from the western Gulf into the southern Great Plains. This suggests at least a low-probability severe threat may occur next weekend, as indicated by both SPC and NSSL GEFS-based ML guidance, which appears supported by the 00Z ECMWF ensemble mean. Predictability is low with the evolution of embedded shortwave impulse within this large-scale trough. ..Grams.. 11/09/2024
