Tonight and Saturday: Ridging surface and aloft will hang tough to our south while a nearly stacked low tracks east across the Great Lakes region and pushes an associated cold front into our CWA
Convection developing along and ahead of the cold front this afternoon and evening is progged to move into our northwest zones later this evening. Severe storms capable of damaging wind gusts, hail to golf ball size and perhaps a brief tornado or two will be possible generally along and north of a line from Bastrop, Louisiana to Eupora, Mississippi. Just southeast of this line isolated severe storms will be possible. Although the severe storm potential should end by 5am, additional shower and thunderstorm development will continue Saturday morning as the stalling frontal boundary sags into central Mississippi. During the heat of the day the frontal boundary is expected to drift back to the north. More vigorous convection is expected including the potential for a strong and/or isolated severe storm to develop in close proximity of the boundary but the main severe threat looks to hold off until the evening. Temperatures tonight and Saturday will continue above normal. /22/
Saturday night through Thursday night:
As the frontal boundary continues to progress southward, additional shortwave disturbances is expected to keep rain/storm chances throughout the evening. Northwest area of the CWA remains under a 'Slight' risk (2 out of 5) for severe weather. Damaging wind gust up to 60-70 mph and hail up to golf ball size and a brief spin up tornado will be the main concerns within the "Slight" risk.
Another chance for severe weather will be possible on Sunday as a frontal boundary stall to the north of the CWA Depending on how much instability remains in the atmosphere from Saturday's storms, isolated severe storms will be possible on Sunday Sunday afternoon and evening. 'Marginal' risk (1 out of 5) for severe weather continues with the hazards of concerns being damaging wind gusts and hail up to quarter-size. Decreasing rain chances are expected to begin Sunday evening as a mid/sfc ridging pattern will begin to builds over the southeast CONUS. High (lower 90s)/ low (lower 70s)
temperatures will continue to be above seasonal averages. Rain/storm chances return on Tuesday as the next system approaches.
Upper-lvl trough with a low centered near the Upper Rockies/Mid West is expected to push a cold front towards the region. As the boundary approaches, an unstable airmass will be in place and a mid-lvl jet moving into the area, will help to increase bulk shear. With possible organized convection, SPC highlighted severe weather potential for Tuesday. At this time, uncertainty in hazards and timing and is subject to change over the next few days.
Post frontal passage Wednesday, northwest flow will bring in below seasonal temperatures and quiet conditions through the end of the week. /SW/
