    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe thunderstorms are not expected Saturday.

    ...Discussion...

    Upper ridge will hold over the southwestern US while troughing
    remains the predominant feature east of the Rockies. As a result, higher-quality moisture/buoyancy have been shunted into the
    southeast Gulf basin, extending across the FL Peninsula. While lapse
    rates will remain poor across this region, an elongated corridor of
    low-level confluence will persist across the southern Peninsula
    which will likely focus convection through the period.

    Farther west, a secondary mid-level short-wave trough will dig
    southeast across the Great Plains to a position from eastern
    KS/central OK by 04/06z. This feature will encourage weak convection
    along/just north of a surface front as it sags southeast across
    KS/OK into MO/AR region. A narrow zone of stronger boundary-layer
    heating should be noted ahead of the front from northwest TX into
    south-central OK. While low-level lapse rates will steepen along
    this corridor, forecast soundings suggest convective temperatures
    may not be breached. For this reason, frontal lift should result in
    more elevated updrafts.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    The risk for severe thunderstorms appears negligible across the U.S.
    Sunday through Sunday night.

    ...Discussion...
    Models continue to indicate that large-scale mid-level ridging will
    persist within the westerlies across the northern mid-latitude
    eastern Pacific into British Columbia and the Pacific Northwest,
    with general troughing east of the Rockies. However, inland of the
    Pacific coast, flow may continue to trend a bit more zonal.

    At least a pair of short wave perturbations, comprising initially
    amplified mid-level troughing across the Upper Midwest into the
    lower Missouri Valley and Ozark Plateau at the outset of the period,
    are forecast to trend out of phase Sunday through Sunday night. It
    appears that the most significant of these will accelerate
    east-northeastward across the lower Ohio Valley, toward northern Mid
    Atlantic coastal areas. As it approaches the coast late Sunday
    night, associated forcing may contribute to surface wave development
    along a frontal zone offshore.

    Seasonably high precipitable water will remain confined to a narrow
    plume along the frontal zone, extending southwestward across the
    Florida Peninsula into the southeastern Gulf of Mexico. Scattered
    thunderstorm activity appears most probable near the Gulf Stream and
    across the southeastern Gulf of Mexico, with potential for
    appreciable boundary-layer destabilization inland of Florida coastal
    areas remaining a bit more unclear.

    Otherwise, some scattered, weak thunderstorm activity appears
    possible late Sunday afternoon and evening across parts of
    central/eastern Ohio and adjacent portions of the Ohio Valley, where
    the mid-level cold pool associated with the vigorous short wave
    trough may overspread a corridor of stronger daytime heating.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated thunderstorms are possible from the Edwards Plateau into
    central and northeast Texas late Monday night. Severe weather
    potential is low.

    ...Synopsis...
    Zonal flow east of the Divide will generally shift eastward Monday.
    A low-amplitude shortwave trough will lift northeastward through
    northern Mexico into West/Central Texas by Tuesday morning. At the
    surface, a cold front initially near the Gulf Coast will likely move
    slowly northward in response to the approaching trough. Modest
    mid-level ascent and weak low-level warm advection will occur late
    in the period from the Edwards Plateau into northeast Texas. As
    scattered showers develop overnight Monday, a few embedded
    thunderstorms may occur given the weak elevated buoyancy present.
    Though shear will be strong, the poor thermodynamic environment will
    keep potential for severe weather quite low.

    ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Isolated to scattered thunderstorms are possible from the southern
    Plains into the lower Mississippi Valley on Tuesday. Severe weather
    is not currently anticipated.

    ...Synopsis...
    Broad upper-level troughing is expected to evolve over much of the
    West on Tuesday. A shortwave perturbation is expected to eject into
    the southern Plains late Tuesday into Wednesday morning. At the
    surface, a cold front should extend from the southern High Plains
    into central Texas before arcing northeastward along the upper Texas
    Gulf Coast and into the lower Mississippi Valley.

    ...Southern Plains to Lower Mississippi Valley...
    Precipitation is likely to be ongoing early Tuesday morning. Most of
    this activity will be occurring on the cool side of the boundary.
    This should reinforce the front, though some modest northward
    progression of warmer, moist air may occur within the coastal plain
    regions. Potential for surface-based storms south of the boundary in
    southeast Texas/Sabine Valley vicinity appears low as the low-level
    jet will weaken during the morning/afternoon and mid-level ascent
    will be weak. Furthermore, forecast soundings indicate poor lapse
    rates in the column and warm layers that will inhibit updraft
    intensity. Overnight Tuesday into Wednesday morning, additional
    isolated to scattered storms are possible from the Edwards Plateau
    into Central/Northeast Texas as mid-level forcing and 850 mb warm
    advection increases. Again, these storms will be elevated on the
    cool side of the boundary. The strongest of these storms could
    produce small hail. The overall severe threat appears too
    isolated/uncertain for unconditional probabilities.

    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM PARTS OF
    EASTERN LOUISIANA INTO CENTRAL/SOUTHERN MISSISSIPPI AND PARTS OF WESTERN/CENTRAL ALABAMA...

    ...SUMMARY...
    Severe storms will be possible Wednesday afternoon into Wednesday
    night from the Sabine Valley vicinity into far western Georgia.

    ...Synopsis...
    A shortwave trough pivoting through the southern High Plains will
    begin to intensify by Wednesday afternoon as it approaches the
    mid-Mississippi Valley. A surface cyclone will evolve along a
    southward-surging cold front in the southern Plains. The surface low
    will deepen more substantially by late afternoon in the
    mid-Mississippi Valley as it moves quickly north and east. Richer
    Gulf moisture will return into the Southeast and may reach as far
    north as portions of Tennessee. The cold front will sweep through
    the Southeast beginning in the late afternoon and into Thursday
    morning.

    ...Lower MS Valley/Central Gulf Coast States...
    Warm advection precipitation will likely be ongoing along the
    surface boundary Wednesday morning. Models vary on the spatial
    extent of precipitation with the ECMWF generally showing less
    clearing during the afternoon than other models. Available CAM
    guidance also shows similar variability. In terms of environment,
    low/mid 60s F dewpoints should reach through much of
    Alabama/Mississippi. Upper 60s F dewpoints are expected in southern Louisiana/Mississippi/Alabama, but could potentially push as far
    north as central Mississippi/Alabama as strong advection continues
    into the evening. Effective shear of 50-60 kts will favor organized storms/bowing segments. This shear will initially be roughly
    parallel to the front, but, as the front surges southeast, shear
    vectors will have a greater cross-boundary component. Strong
    low-level shear will also be in place with a 45-55 kt low-level jet
    moving from Louisiana during the morning into Mississippi/Alabama
    during the afternoon.

    The current expectation is for morning storms near the Sabine Valley
    to gradually intensify as they move northeast into a modestly
    destabilizing boundary-layer. How these storms evolve is uncertain.
    Damaging winds are a likely hazard, but, depending on storm mode and
    the degree of heating in Mississippi, could also pose a similar risk
    for tornadoes. Storms along the front are not likely to make much
    progress southeastward until the late afternoon. As the front moves,
    convective transport of the strong wind fields will promote damaging
    winds and strong low-level shear will bring a risk for embedded circulations/QLCS tornadoes. Discrete development ahead of the front
    during the evening is possible given strong theta-e advection and
    weak capping, but synoptic ascent will be displaced north which
    reduces confidence in that scenario. Surface-based storms become
    much less likely into Tennessee and Georgia.
