ACUS48 KWNS 140900 SWOD48 SPC AC 140859 Day 4-8 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0359 AM CDT Sat Jun 14 2025 Valid 171200Z - 221200Z ...DISCUSSION... ...Tuesday/Day 4 and Wednesday/Day 5... A mid-level trough is forecast to move into the High Plains on Tuesday, as a cold front moves southward into the central Plains. Ahead of the front, a moist and unstable airmass is forecast by afternoon from Kansas and southeastern Nebraska into northern Missouri. As surface temperatures warm during the day, thunderstorm development will likely take place along parts of the front. Moderate deep-layer shear is forecast across much of the region, suggesting that storms should become organized. Supercells and short intense line segments will be possible, with large hail and wind damage as the primary threats. The mid-level trough is forecast to move eastward through the central states on Wednesday, as a cold front advances southeastward into the lower Missouri Valley and western Great Lakes. Ahead of the front, an axis of moderate instability is forecast to be in place by afternoon. Thunderstorm development will be likely along parts of the front. Moderate deep-layer shear is forecast along and near much of the instability axis, suggesting that a severe threat will again be possible during the afternoon and evening. ...Thursday/Day 6 to Saturday/Day 8... The mid-level trough is forecast to move eastward into the Northeast on Thursday. Ahead of the trough and its associated cold front, moderate instability is expected to develop by afternoon. Thunderstorm development will be most likely from parts of southern New England southwestward into the Mid-Atlantic. Deep-layer shear should be sufficient for an isolated severe threat. However, there is considerable uncertainty due to the issues of frontal timing and instability magnitude. From Friday into Saturday, a mid-level ridge is forecast to move eastward from the northern Plains into the Great Lakes. Although a moist and unstable airmass will likely be in place across the north-central U.S., large scale ascent should be weak across most of the region. For this reason, predictability is low concerning any potential severe threat. ..Broyles.. 06/14/2025 |
