Administrators NorthGeorgiaWX Posted April 16 Administrators Share Posted April 16 Day 4-8 Outlook Day 4-8 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0354 AM CDT Tue Apr 16 2024 Valid 191200Z - 241200Z ...DISCUSSION... On Friday/D4, an upper low is forecast to move across Ontario, with an expansive low-amplitude trough sweeping east across the northern Plains and Great Lakes. This associated trough is expected to broaden and deepen over the next several days, becoming centered over Hudson Bay. The end result will be gradually expanding high pressure over much of the CONUS, with moisture shunted farther south each day. For Friday, a front is expected to stretch from TX across the Southeast and toward the Mid Atlantic, with robust low-level moisture to the south. While this will support destabilization, the boundary will largely be south of the strong winds aloft, with less shear potential. Scattered daytime thunderstorms are likely Friday along the front, with thunderstorm chances increasing over the southern Plains on Saturday/D5. While a minor southern-stream wave may move across the Southwest and northern Mexico on Saturday, shear is forecast to be weak. High pressure is then forecast to shift south across the Plains and into the Southeast as the Hudson Bay and eastern North American trough develops, with little if any severe threat beyond Saturday/D5.
