SPC 1930Z Day 3 Outlook
Day 3 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0117 PM CST Wed Feb 19 2025 Valid 211200Z - 221200Z ...NO THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST... ...SUMMARY... Thunderstorms are not expected on Friday. ...Synopsis... On Friday a split-flow regime will exist with northwest flow from the northern Plains into the Great lakes, and a stronger belt of westerly flow from the Southwest into the Southeast. The overarching theme will continue to be stable conditions due to high pressure over the central and eastern states, though surface winds will become easterly from the Bahamas westward across the Gulf of America. While an upper low is forecast to move across AZ and NM late in the period, little instability is forecast with this system as it drops southeast out of the Four Corners overnight. Given nocturnal timing, lack of heating and minimal destabilization suggest thunderstorms will remain unlikely. ..Jewell.. 02/19/2025
