Day 1 Convective Outlook  
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
1005 AM CST Sun Jan 14 2024

Valid 141630Z - 151200Z

...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

...SUMMARY...
Isolated thunderstorms are possible over parts of south Florida, as
well as from southeastern New York across parts of New England.

...Synopsis...
Mid-morning water-vapor imagery and upper-air analyses continue to
show the east/northeastward progression of a strong upper wave over
the upper OH River Valley/New England with an attendant - but slowly
occluding - surface cyclone over eastern Canada. A trailing cold
front is noted in surface observations from upstate NY to the
southwest along the southern Appalachians into the lower MS Valley
and TX Gulf Coast region. This boundary will continue migrating
east/southeast through the day as an arctic air mass overspreads
much of the eastern two-thirds of the CONUS. The frigid air will
negate convective potential for most regions today with the
exception of south Florida and parts of New England. 

...South Florida...
A residual frontal boundary from a previous cool air intrusion into
the Gulf is noted in visible imagery across south FL with occasional
convection/lightning flashes noted over the past few hours. Regional
12 UTC soundings sampled poor mid-level lapse rates, but sufficient
elevated buoyancy is in place above the shallow frontal layer to
continue to support isolated thunderstorms through today/tonight as
lift ahead of an approaching mid-level disturbance overspreads the
region.

...New England...
Shallow convection is noted along/behind the cold front across
portions of PA and NY this morning. While this activity is currently
too cool and shallow to support lightning production, a combination
of diurnal warming, a weak influx of moisture from the Mid-Atlantic
coast, and cool mid-level temperatures may provide adequate buoyancy
for a few lightning flashes later this afternoon across southeast NY
into the New England region.
