May 8-9 Severe Weather

Still like western Iowa/far eastern Nebraska for tomorrow.  Think SPC needs to bump the western edge of their higher probs a tad to the west. 

 

Euro and GFS still worlds apart for the Sun/Mon period.  Euro still showing a setup over southern Iowa/Missouri for Sunday, and another further east over eastern Iowa/Illinois for Mon.  GFS much more progressive.

SPC goes moderate risk for parts of IA/MN on new day 1.

 

 

DAY 1 CONVECTIVE OUTLOOK

NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK

1240 AM CDT THU MAY 08 2014

VALID 081200Z - 091200Z

...THERE IS A MDT RISK OF SVR TSTMS ACROSS SOUTHERN MN AND WRN IA...

...THERE IS A SLGT RISK OF SVR TSTMS SURROUNDING THE MDT RISK FROM

THE UPPER MS VALLEY TO SCNTRL TX...

...SUMMARY...

SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP BY MID AFTERNOON ACROSS

SOUTHERN MINNESOTA AND WESTERN IOWA. VERY LARGE HAIL AND TORNADOES

ARE EXPECTED WITH THIS ACTIVITY. SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS...A FEW

SEVERE...SHOULD ALSO DEVELOP SOUTH OF THIS REGION ACROSS EASTERN

KANSAS AND MISSOURI...SOUTHWARD INTO THE HILL COUNTRY OF

SOUTH-CENTRAL TEXAS. LARGE HAIL IS THE PRIMARY SEVERE THREAT WITH

THIS CONVECTION.

...MINNESOTA/IOWA...

UPPER TROUGH WILL PROGRESS INTO THE HIGH PLAINS THURSDAY AFTERNOON

AS STRONG MID-LEVEL SPEED MAX...ON THE ORDER OF 75KT AT 500

MB...EJECTS ACROSS KS INTO THE MID MO RIVER VALLEY BY 08/21Z. THIS

FEATURE IS EXPECTED TO ENCOURAGE LEE LOW TO TRACK NEWD TO A POSITION

JUST SW OF SUX PRIOR TO CONVECTIVE TEMPERATURES BEING BREACHED AHEAD

OF SURGING DRYLINE.

EARLY IN THE PERIOD WARM ADVECTION IS EXPECTED TO PROVIDE UVV

NECESSARY FOR SCATTERED ELEVATED CONVECTION ALONG THE NOSE OF LLJ

ACROSS PORTIONS OF THE CNTRL PLAINS. THIS ACTIVITY SHOULD

SPREAD/DEVELOP NEWD INTO THE UPPER MS VALLEY DURING THE AFTERNOON

HOURS. OF MORE CONCERN WILL BE THE EXPECTED TSTM DEVELOPMENT SOUTH

OF THE WARM FRONT ACROSS SRN MN/WRN IA. LATEST THINKING IS A FAIRLY

WELL-DEFINED DRY SURGE WILL SPREAD ACROSS NEBRASKA INTO WRN IA AS

SFC LOW TRACKS TO NEAR THE MO RIVER. AT THIS TIME IT APPEARS

CONVECTION SHOULD BE MINIMAL ACROSS THE WARM SECTOR PRIOR TO MAX

HEATING. IMMEDIATELY AHEAD OF THE DRYLINE...TEMPERATURES SHOULD

WARM INTO THE LOWER 80S AND CONVECTION SHOULD INITIATE BETWEEN

20-21Z. WITH LOWER 60S SFC DEW POINTS FORECAST TO SPREAD INTO SRN

MN AMPLE BUOYANCY WILL EXIST FOR ROBUST SUPERCELL DEVELOPMENT. IN

FACT...FORECAST SOUNDINGS EXHIBIT SBCAPE UPWARDS OF 3000 J/KG ACROSS

NWRN IA WHERE SFC-6KM SHEAR IS EXPECTED TO BE NEAR 60KT. SUPERCELLS

SHOULD EVOLVE ACROSS THIS REGION THEN TRACK NEWD TOWARD A CORRIDOR

OF STRONGER LOW-LEVEL SHEAR ACROSS SRN MN. VERY LARGE HAIL IS

EXPECTED WITH ANY SUPERCELLS THAT FORM AND THERE IS SOME CONCERN

THAT TORNADOES MAY ALSO DEVELOP WITHIN REGION OF STRONGER LOW-LEVEL

SHEAR...ESPECIALLY NEAR THE WARM FRONT. SEVERE THREAT WILL SHIFT

INTO THE UPPER MS VALLEY DURING THE OVERNIGHT PERIOD AS MID-LEVEL

HEIGHT FALLS FOCUS ACROSS THIS AREA.

...KS/MO...SWD INTO THE HILL COUNTRY OF SCNTRL TX...

LARGE-SCALE FORCING IS EXPECTED TO DRIVE ONE OR MORE BANDS OF

CONVECTION ACROSS THE SRN PLAINS EARLY IN THE PERIOD AS MID-LEVEL

SPEED MAX EJECTS ACROSS THE TX PANHANDLE. AT 06Z THIS MORNING THIS

APPEARS TO BE UNDERWAY AS A SQUALL LINE IS CURRENTLY MATURING ALONG

THE DRYLINE NEAR MAF. THIS ACTIVITY SHOULD PROPAGATE EWD AND SHOULD

BE EAST OF 100 LON BY SUNRISE. EXTENSIVE CLOUDS/PRECIPITATION

SHOULD LIMIT LAPSE RATES DOWNSTREAM...THOUGH LOW LEVEL WARM

ADVECTION SHOULD SUPPORT CONTINUED EWD PROPAGATION DURING THE DAY.

IN THE WAKE OF THIS EARLY CONVECTION STRONG HEATING WILL BE NOTED

ALONG THE DRYLINE. ISOLATED SUPERCELLS COULD EVOLVE ACROSS WESTERN

TX/OK AS TEMPERATURES WARM INTO THE MID 80S. MORE SIGNIFICANT

CONVECTION SHOULD DEVELOP ALONG SURGING COLD FRONT OVER KS BY

09/00Z. THIS ACTIVITY WILL SPREAD EWD ALONG THE KS/OK BORDER DURING

THE OVERNIGHT HOURS WITH THE PRIMARY THREAT BEING LARGE HAIL.

Random T-storm warning just went up here. Not even seeing any lighting detected. Interesting.

 

Little guy packed a punch. There was a tiny area of enhanced inbounds on the velo scan than pretty much passed right over head. Gusted around 50mph I'd guess.

 

Lotta people caught off-guard outside :(

If I can just get get some sunshine this afternoon........

 

 

Yesterday kinda underperformed...was wondering if there might be some carryover effects into today (in a positive way).  Some nice clearing spreading eastward so we'll see if it helps.

There's a thin area roughly between IND and LAF oriented SW to NE between the two convective areas thats been getting some good heating the last few hours.  Throw some outflow boundaries in there and might get a few nice pearls popping in the next hour or 2.
