SPC 1930Z Day 3 Outlook Day 3 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1233 PM CST Wed Jan 08 2025 Valid 101200Z - 111200Z ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST... ...SUMMARY... Severe thunderstorms are not forecast through Friday night. ...Central to eastern Gulf Coast... Thunder potential appears quite limited on Friday as poor to weak mid-level lapse rates persist downstream of a positive-tilt longwave trough. Buoyancy inland appears negligible, but meager MUCAPE over the north-central Gulf may be sufficient for a thin, low-topped convective line to shift east through the day from coastal southeast LA through the FL Panhandle.
