368 ACUS02 KWNS 080647 SWODY2 SPC AC 080646 Day 2 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1246 AM CST Fri Nov 08 2024 Valid 091200Z - 101200Z ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST... ...SUMMARY... Severe storms are not expected on Saturday or Saturday night. ...Western Gulf Coast to Lower MO/OH Valleys... 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. ..Grams.. 11/08/2024 $$
