797 ACUS03 KWNS 250807 SWODY3 SPC AC 250807 Day 3 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0207 AM CST Mon Nov 25 2024 Valid 271200Z - 281200Z ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST... ...SUMMARY... Thunderstorms are most likely Wednesday night over parts of the lower Mississippi Valley into the Tennessee Valley. A few strong storms cannot be ruled out. ...Synopsis... On Wednesday, an upper trough will develop from the Upper MS Valley into the central Plains as an 80 kt 500 mb speed max moves across northern TX and OK. Height falls with this system will spread over much of the OH/TN Valleys and southeastern states, with the speed max likely intensifying through 12Z Thursday. At the surface, low pressure will move from OK toward the MO Bootheel trough 00Z, then will gradually deepen into WV overnight. A cold front will trail southwestward from the low, providing lift as it interacts with a developing moist plume across the Gulf Coast States. ...Sabine Valley into the TN Valley... A warm front will be situated along the northern Gulf Coast Wednesday morning, and will move north across much of LA during the day. Mid to upper 60s F dewpoints will likely exist from southeast TX across southern LA by 00Z. The air mass will likely remain capped during the day, but scattered thunderstorms are forecast overnight as the front continues east. Despite strengthening deep-layer shear (with strongly veered 850 mb flow), the main mitigating factor will be the relatively cool boundary layer and inversion near 700 mb. This should preclude much activity away from the front, and reduce severe potential overall. However, deepening of the moist boundary layer overnight along the front, beneath strong westerly flow, could result in a few strong storms producing damaging gusts. Given these factors, will not introduce low severe probabilities this outlook cycle. ..Jewell.. 11/25/2024 $$
