Severe thunderstorms are not forecast today. Scattered storms are most likely over the Southeast, and along northern parts of the West Coast. ...Discussion... As an upper trough continues to depart the Northeast, a temporarily lower-amplitude/rather zonal flow field over the U.S. will gradually begin to reamplify. This will occur primarily with respect to a deep upper low off the British Columbia coast, that will drift slowly southeastward. As this occurs, the broader cyclonic flow field surrounding the low will expand/amplify across the West. With persistent moist/westerly upslope flow into the higher elevations of the West resulting from the slow southward drift of this upper system, lightning potential will likewise continue, particularly across western portions of Washington and Oregon and into northern and central California. Meanwhile, showers and scattered/elevated thunderstorms continue across the central Gulf Coast states, in advance of a southern-stream short-wave trough. As the system advances eastward today, thunder potential will likewise spread across the Southeast through the end of the period. In all areas, severe weather remains unlikely. ..Goss/Broyles.. 03/01/2024 Read more View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
