Scattered strong thunderstorms may impact parts of the upper Great Lakes region Tuesday. ...Synopsis and Discussion... The main feature of interest will be a shortwave trough moving across the upper MS Valley and across the Great Lakes, with attendant cold front pushing east across Upper MI and WI through 00Z. Modest instability and lift along the front will likely result in scattered afternoon thunderstorms over these areas. While lapse rates will remain poor aloft, the combination of strengthening deep-layer shear and frontal passage near peak heating may yield a few stronger storms within an expected line across eastern WI. Mean wind speeds in the lowest 3km will not be very strong, nor will the mixed boundary layer be particularly deep. However, isolated damaging gusts or marginal hail may occur as cooling aloft overspreads the warmed air mass late. Elsewhere, scattered storms will occur over the Southern Plains beneath a weak midlevel disturbance, and over parts of the Midwest and Southeast where low-level moisture will favor sporadic afternoon development. ..Jewell.. 08/11/2025 $$
