Thunderstorms will largely diminish across the Southeast tonight. ...Southeast... Isolated thunderstorms persist across parts of the Carolinas into the FL Panhandle, and separately over the south FL Peninsula. Within a weakly buoyant warm-moist sector ahead of this activity, overall convective potential will generally diminish. This will occur more rapidly overnight as large-scale ascent weakens/shifts off the South Atlantic Coast. Thunderstorms will be relegated to the Gulf Stream during

ESFSEW An atmospheric river has brought 2 to 4 inches of precipitation across the Cascades of Snohomish County northwards over the last 24 hours. This has led to a rise in area rivers. However, river flooding is not expected for Whatcom, Skagit, and King Counties from this event. Although river flooding is not expected for Snohomish County, the Stillaguamish River continues to rise rapidly this morning due to 1 to 2 inches of precipitation over the last 6 hours in the Stillaguamish basin and vicinity. For this reason, the Hydrologic Outlook remains for Snohomish County. However, current river forecasts keep

Day 4-8 Outlook Day 4-8 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0339 AM CST Wed Dec 18 2024 Valid 211200Z - 261200Z ...DISCUSSION... Strong surface high pressure and a dearth of boundary-layer moisture will preclude severe thunderstorm potential on Days 4-5/Sat-Sun. By Day 6/Mon, medium range forecast guidance shows a series of upper shortwave troughs shifting east from the Rockies to the MS Valley through Day 8/Wed (Christmas Day). In response, lee troughing/surface low developing is expected over parts of the southern Plains. Increasing southerly low-level flow will support modest northward transport of Gulf moisture across parts of

ESFSEW An atmospheric river will impact the region Tuesday and Wednesday, bringing potentially significant rainfall that could drive some rivers in western Washington into flood stage. There is still a fair amount of uncertainty regarding river flooding mid-week, but the latest rainfall forecast shows 3 to 5 inches over the Olympic Peninsula with snow levels as high as 7000 to 8000 feet. The northern and central Cascades will also see heavy rainfall during this period, with up to 4 inches of liquid forecast through Wednesday. The Skokomish River is currently forecast to enter moderate flood stage by Wednesday, and other

Day 4-8 Outlook Day 4-8 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0333 AM CST Tue Dec 17 2024 Valid 201200Z - 251200Z ...DISCUSSION... Strong surface high pressure over the central U.S. and a prior cold front intruding into the southern Gulf of Mexico will result in a dearth of boundary layer moisture across much of the CONUS through at least Day 6/Sun. As a result, thunderstorm chances will be low. Toward the end of the period, some forecast guidance suggests lee troughing will allow southeasterly low-level flow to bring modest Gulf moisture northward across TX. This may result

A progressive mid/upper-level pattern will persist, with the most important feature being a trough now apparent in moisture-channel imagery from a low over southeastern MB, across western MN, eastern NE, central KS, and the TX Panhandle.

Medium range guidance is in fairly good agreement that an amplified but progressive upper level pattern will overspread the CONUS during the Day 4-8 period. A shortwave trough over the northern Plains early on Day 4/Thu will deepen and spread east over the eastern half of the CONUS through Day 6 or 7/Sat or Sun. Meanwhile, an amplified upper ridge will build over the western states and spread east into the Plains during this same
