Public Severe Weather Outlook PUBLIC SEVERE WEATHER OUTLOOK NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK 1056 AM CST MON JAN 08 2024 ...Severe thunderstorms expected over parts of the Gulf Coast States this afternoon and tonight... * LOCATIONS... Southern Louisiana Southern Mississippi Southeast Texas Southern Alabama Florida Panhandle * HAZARDS... A few intense tornadoes Scattered damaging winds, some hurricane force Isolated large hail * SUMMARY... Severe thunderstorms capable of strong/damaging wind gusts and tornadoes are expected across parts of the Gulf Coast States this afternoon through early Tuesday morning. This includes the possibility of strong tornadoes and a significant nighttime severe weather risk for southeast Louisiana, southern Mississippi into southern Alabama, and the western Florida Panhandle. Preparedness actions... Tornadoes at night can be particularly dangerous because they are usually fast-moving and difficult to see. Stay tuned to NOAA Weather Radio, weather.gov, or other media for watches and warnings. A tornado watch means that conditions are favorable for tornadoes to form during the next several hours. If a tornado warning is issued for your area, move to a place of safety, ideally in a basement or interior room on the lowest floor of a Read more View the full article

MD 0022 CONCERNING TORNADO WATCH 2... FOR SOUTHEAST LA...FAR SOUTHERN MS/AL Mesoscale Discussion 0022 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0703 PM CST Mon Jan 08 2024 Areas affected...southeast LA...far southern MS/AL Concerning...Tornado Watch 2... Valid 090103Z - 090300Z The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 2 continues. SUMMARY...All severe hazards remain possible across Tornado Watch 2. An additional isolated hail and wind risk may extend just outside of the watch across parts of southern Mississippi/Alabama in the short term. DISCUSSION...Warm advection storms continue to shift northeast across parts of southeast LA into southern MS/AL. This convection is elevated and to the cool side of a warm front draped across southern LA, and extending just offshore from MS/AL. Strong vertical shear, as evident in very large and curved hodographs in regional VWP data, will allow for some maintenance and organization of stronger updrafts despite weakening instability with northward extent. These stronger cells will pose some risk for hail given modest midlevel lapse rates and favorable shear, as well as an isolated risk for strong gusts. A cold front and associated line of convection is currently oriented from northeast to southwest LA, and will continue to shift east overnight. A narrow warm sector currently confined to far southern LA will continue to support tornado potential with any convection that may develop ahead of the eastward advancing line of convection, or within the line itself with any QLCS/mesovortex circulations. The warm front will gradually lift northward overnight as a surface low deepens as lifts northeast across the Lower MS/TN Valley. This will allow higher-quality Gulf moisture moving into far southern MS/AL and eventually the western FL Panhandle. Portions of WW 2, which expires at 03z, may need to be included in a new tornado watch, which would extend downstream into southern MS/AL and the western FL Panhandle. ..Leitman.. 01/09/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

SPC 0100Z Day 1 Outlook Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0659 PM CST Mon Jan 08 2024 Valid 090100Z - 091200Z ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS SOUTHERN PORTIONS OF LOUISIANA...MISSISSIPPI...ALABAMA...AND WESTERN PARTS OF THE FLORIDA PANHANDLE... ...SUMMARY... Severe thunderstorms capable of producing damaging wind gusts and tornadoes will continue shifting across the Gulf Coast region through early Tuesday morning, from southern Louisiana eastward to the western Florida Panhandle. Strong tornadoes are possible. ...Discussion... Strong/occasionally severe thunderstorms are ongoing this evening -- near and ahead of a cold front that currently stretches from the Ozarks southward across north-central Louisiana, and then southwestward along the Texas Coast. Ahead of the cold front, warm/moist air continues streaming north from the Gulf of Mexico, with a warm front draped west-northwest to east-southeast across southern Louisiana. The warm front continues to make gradual northward/northeastward progress in tandem with the eastward advance of the cold front, which will allow the narrow warm sector between the two boundaries to shift across the central Gulf Coast region through the remainder of the period. While some risk for hail will persist overnight even north of the warm front, the primary severe risk will remain focused near and south of this boundary, where dewpoints in the mid to upper 60s continue to support an amply unstable airmass for strong updrafts. The main contributor to the degree of wind/tornado potential currently forecast remains the very strong -- and intensifying -- deep-layer wind field preceding the main upper system (that is now advancing into/across the central/southern Plains). As the southerly low-level jet further strengthens across this region, atop southeasterly surface winds in proximity of the warm front, shear highly favorable for strongly rotating supercells is evident. While weak boundary-layer stability even within the warm sector -- especially with eastward extent overnight -- should place some limit on the overall tornado/wind risk, the offsetting high-end wind field across this region will support potential for significant severe weather locally, both in the form of damaging winds, and strong tornadoes. Risk should extend as far east as central portions of the Florida Panhandle through latter stages of the period. ..Goss.. 01/09/2024 Read more View the full article

MD 0018 CONCERNING BLIZZARD FOR WESTERN KANSAS INTO SOUTHERN NEBRASKA Mesoscale Discussion 0018 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0248 PM CST Mon Jan 08 2024 Areas affected...Western Kansas into southern Nebraska Concerning...Blizzard Valid 082048Z - 090045Z SUMMARY...Blizzard conditions continue into the evening. DISCUSSION...Winds continue to strengthen across western Kansas with sustained winds as high as 44 knots at KULS with numerous locations reporting blizzard conditions. Winds may still strengthen further over the next few hours as the northerly low-level jet continues to strengthen/broaden on the western periphery of the 850mb low. Strong cold air advection also continues with temperatures in the low 20s now across northwest Kansas. Moderate to heavy snowfall within the deformation band will slowly drift east through the evening as the surface low advances eastward. Blizzard conditions will continue across western Kansas and into southern Nebraska through this period with only slow improvement from west to east. ..Bentley.. 01/08/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
