Isolated thunderstorms are possible from central Texas across southeast Oklahoma into western Arkansas tonight. ...TX/OK/AR... Recent satellite imagery shows a well-defined shortwave trough off the southern CA/Baja CA coast. This feature is forecast to progress quickly east-northeastward throughout the day, traversing the Southwest/northern Mexico and reaching the southern Plains by tomorrow morning. Airmass ahead of this feature across the southern Plains is currently cool and dry, with the

A low risk for a few thunderstorms exists early in the period across the Mid-South region. ...Synopsis... Broadly cyclonic flow aloft, with several embedded shortwave troughs, is expected across the northern CONUS today. Largely zonal flow is anticipated across the southern CONUS, with negligible height changes. Recent surface analysis shows an expansive area of high pressure associated with a dry, continental airmass covering much of the central and

Isolated to scattered thunderstorm development is possible across parts of the Ohio Valley today. ...Ohio Valley... A low-amplitude shortwave trough currently extends from western ND southwestward through western/central WY. This shortwave is expected to progress quickly eastward throughout the day, moving across the Great Lakes and reaching the Northeast by early tomorrow. In response, the surface low currently over central OK is forecast to rapidly translate northeastward through

Severe thunderstorms are not expected through Friday night. ...Synopsis and Discussion... Predominantly zonal upper flow is currently in place across the CONUS as one shortwave trough progresses through the Canadian Maritimes and another moves through the Pacific Northwest. High surface pressure is expected the shift eastward across the OH Valley in the wake of the Canadian Maritime shortwave. A weakening cold front exists between the more continental air

Severe thunderstorms are not forecast across the contiguous United States through tonight. ...Synopsis... Water-vapor imagery loop indicates a split flow upper-air pattern over North America with a closed mid- to upper-level low meandering over the Desert Southwest. A few showers associated with the upper low may become convectively augmented and yield a couple of lightning flashes. Otherwise, docile conditions will prevail across the remainder of the Lower 48

Severe thunderstorms are not forecast across the contiguous United States through tonight. ...Synopsis... A mid-level low will meander slowly east across southern CA into northwest AZ during the period. A belt of strong upper flow will extend from Baja California east across the southern U.S. while a split flow regime is maintained with troughing over the Great Lakes. In the low levels, a frontal zone will slide southward

Thunderstorms are not expected today or tonight. ...Discussion... An eastward-progressive upper trough will influence the Eastern Seaboard and western Atlantic, with high pressure and continental trajectories pervasive east of the Rockies. An upper low off the coast of southern California and northern Baja will begin to shift toward the Southwest Deserts late today and tonight. Isolated weak convection may occur tonight across parts of central/southeast Arizona, but cool/dry thermodynamic

Severe thunderstorms are not expected through tonight. ...Coastal Texas... Scattered elevated convection is expected to continue across the coastal plain as warm/moist advection persists while a weak mid-level disturbance moves eastward over the western Gulf of Mexico. Deeper lightning-producing convection will focus over the open Gulf waters, but a few lightning flashes could occur near the coast. This potential is substantiated by the 12z observed sounding from Corpus

Thunderstorm potential will be essentially nil today and tonight as high pressure and stable continental trajectories persist from the Rockies eastward. A weak low-latitude disturbance over Mexico will progress northeastward toward Deep South Texas late today. Warm/moist advection will also increase with airmass modification over the western Gulf of Mexico and a gradual moistening off the coast of Deep South Texas. Weak
