...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON
FROM NORTHWEST MO INTO SOUTHERN MN/WI...AND FROM THE MID-ATLANTIC TO
THE SOUTHERN APPALACHIANS...
...SUMMARY...
Isolated wind damage and a few tornadoes will be possible this
afternoon from northwest Missouri into Iowa, southeast Minnesota,
and southern Wisconsin. Scattered wind damage will be possible from
the Mid-Atlantic into the southern Appalachians.
...Upper Midwest...
A shortwave trough is evident this morning over NE/SD moving
eastward. Lift ahead of this feature will encourage scattered
thunderstorm development by early afternoon near the surface low and
along a weak cold front over western IA. These storms will track
southeastward into a warm and very moist air mass, where MLCAPE
values will be 2000-3000 J/kg. Steep low-level lapse rates will
promote a risk of damaging winds as the storms spread southeastward
through early evening.
From the surface low eastward into southern WI, a corridor of backed
low-level winds and enhanced shear along the warm front will be
favorable for a few discrete supercells. Similar to yesterday
(although perhaps not quite as favorable), there is a risk of a few
tornadoes through the afternoon and early evening.
...Mid-Atlantic to Southern Appalachians...
Full sunshine is occurring again today from southeast PA to the
western Carolinas and north GA. This corridor will be hot/humid
again today, leading to scattered thunderstorms. Winds aloft are
weak, suggesting disorganized/pulse convective modes. However,
steep low-level lapse rates and moderate CAPE values will once again
result in a risk of locally damaging wind gusts through the
afternoon and early evening. Despite the expected weak winds aloft,
will introduce a SLGT risk for this corridor given the consensus of
model guidance supporting the threat.
