    SPC 1200Z Day 1 Outlook

    AM CDT Tue Jul 02 2019
    Valid 021200Z - 031200Z
    ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM PARTS OF
    THE NORTHERN ROCKIES INTO THE NORTHERN HIGH PLAINS...
    ...SUMMARY... Severe storms with large hail and damaging wind are
    possible this afternoon into this evening from the northern Rockies
    into the northern Plains.
    ...Northern Rockies into the northern Plains... Low-level
    southeasterly flow is expected to develop across the northern High
    Plains this afternoon, to the south of a cold front draped from
    eastern MT into ND. Meanwhile, a gradual increase in southwesterly
    midlevel flow is expected as an upper trough moves slowly eastward
    across the interior Northwest. Steep midlevel lapse rates atop
    sufficient low-level moisture will support moderate to locally
    strong buoyancy this afternoon, with MLCAPE of 1500-3000 J/kg
    possible south of the front and to the east of a surface trough
    across southeast MT, eastern WY, and the Dakotas. This instability,
    combined with effective shear of 30-40 kt, will support the potential
    for a few supercells as scattered thunderstorms develop by late
    this afternoon. Large hail and localized downburst winds will be
    the primary threat within the first couple of hours after storm
    initiation. With time, some upscale growth is possible this evening, potentially spreading some severe wind risk into the central Dakotas
    later tonight.
    Further west, instability will be weaker across the higher terrain of
    the northern Rockies, but still sufficient to support multiple rounds
    of convection as the upper trough moves eastward. The strongest
    storms in this region will be capable of localized severe winds
    and perhaps some hail.
    ...Great Lakes into the OH Valley and PA... Low-level moisture is
    expected to increase through the day today south of a quasistationary
    frontal boundary from near the upper MS Valley region into the lower
    Great Lakes and PA. Buoyancy will be limited somewhat by generally
    poor midlevel lapse rates, but at least modest heating should allow
    for steepening low-level lapse rates and MLCAPE values generally
    in the 1500-2500 J/kg range by afternoon. Negligible convective
    inhibition should allow for scattered to numerous thunderstorms to
    develop in the vicinity of the frontal boundary. Storm organization
    should be limited by effective shear generally less than 25 kt,
    though some localized enhancement to the shear will be possible near
    any small-scale vorticity maxima traversing the region. Damaging
    winds should be the primary threat.
    ...Central/eastern ME... A vorticity maximum and attendant strong northwesterly jet will move across northern New England later
    today. Modest destabilization across central/eastern ME will allow
    for scattered thunderstorm development by early afternoon along
    and east of a weak surface trough. Effective shear of 30-40 kt
    will support some storm organization, with an attendant threat of
    locally damaging wind and perhaps some hail.
    ...Eastern NE into IA... Scattered thunderstorms are expected to
    develop this afternoon along a quasistationary frontal boundary
    draped from eastern NE into IA. While effective shear will be weak
    and storms should generally remain disorganized, moderate-to-strong
    buoyancy and substantial PW values will support a threat of isolated
    wet microbursts during the late afternoon into early evening.

    Valid 031200Z - 041200Z
    ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS
    OF THE NORTHERN PLAINS AND FROM THE UPPER MIDWEST INTO THE UPPER
    OHIO VALLEY...
    ...SUMMARY... Marginally severe thunderstorms with wind damage and
    hail will be possible on Wednesday across parts of the northern
    Plains. A few damaging wind gusts will also be possible from the
    Upper Midwest into the Ohio Valley.
    ...Northern Plains... West to southwest mid-level flow will be
    in place across the northern Plains on Wednesday. At the surface,
    a front is forecast to become quasi-stationary from southern and
    eastern South Dakota into north-central Minnesota. Surface dewpoints
    near the front in the upper 60s F may contribute to pockets
    of moderate instability by afternoon. Thunderstorm development
    appears most likely in the northern High Plains during the day
    with convection spreading eastward across western and central South
    Dakota during the late afternoon. Other storms may develop along the
    front from eastern South Dakota into north-central Minnesota. Hail
    and marginally severe wind gusts will be possible with storms that
    interact with areas that destabilize sufficiently.
    ...Upper Midwest to Upper Ohio Valley... An upper-level ridge will
    move across the Great Lakes region on Wednesday. At the surface,
    a moist airmass should be in place from the mid Missouri Valley
    eastward into the upper Ohio Valley. Surface dewpoints in the
    lower to mid 70s F will likely contribute to moderate instability
    across much of the region by afternoon. As storms initiate along
    pre-existing outflow boundaries and near zones of enhanced low-level convergence, marginally severe wet downbursts will be possible.
    ...MAXIMUM RISK BY HAZARD... Tornado: 2% - Marginal Wind:
    5% - Marginal Hail: 5% - Marginal

    SPC Day 1 Fire Weather Outlook
    Day 1 Fire Weather Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
    0142 AM CDT Tue Jul 02 2019
    Valid 021200Z - 031200Z
    ...Synopsis... An upper-level trough in the Pacific Northwest will
    deepen as it slowly slides south/east today. A weak Pacific cold
    front will move southeast into northern Nevada with a surface low
    remaining near the Nevada/Utah border. The surface pressure gradient
    will strengthen across the Great Basin into the Southwest as the
    cold front approaches and via strong daytime heating in/around the
    Lower Colorado River Valley.
    ...southern Nevada...southern Utah...northern Arizona... Elevated
    conditions will develop across portions of southern Nevada, southern
    Utah, and northern Arizona this afternoon/evening with sustained
    southwest winds of 15-25 mph and RH values of 5-20% expected. Locally
    critical conditions are likely across this region as well. ERCs are
    mostly near/above average for this time of year across the area with
    a couple of stations above the 90th percentile. This is also around
    the climatological peak fuel dryness for the region. Fine fuels will
    likely be the main carrier of any fire, but some of the 100/1000-hour
    fuels may be dry enough given the forecast conditions. Holdovers
    are a concern given the recent lightning across the region.

    0143 AM CDT Tue Jul 02 2019
    Valid 031200Z - 041200Z
    ...Synopsis... Upper-level troughing will remain over the Pacific
    Northwest on Wednesday with heights continuing to slowly lower
    across the western CONUS. A mid-level shortwave trough embedded
    within this troughing is forecast to move over California and into
    Nevada on Wednesday, which will help strengthen 700-500 mb flow
    across the region. Surface troughing will extend northeast out of
    the Lower Colorado River Valley into Utah.
    ...southern Nevada...southern Utah...northern Arizona... Elevated
    conditions are likely to develop again on Wednesday across southern
    Nevada, southern Utah, and northern Arizona. Southwest sustained
    surface winds of 15-25 mph and RH values of 5-20% are expected during
    Wednesday afternoon/evening with locally critical conditions also
    possible if not likely. Winds will likely be stronger on Wednesday
    than previous days given the presence of the relatively stronger
    flow aloft. Elevated conditions may also expand farther south,
    especially across southeast Arizona.
    Elevated/critical winds will likely extend farther into Utah, but
    fuels conditions preclude expanding the elevated into this area.
    ERCs and dead fuel moisture values are mostly near to above/below
    normal, respectively, across the region. Additionally, this is
    around the climatological peak of fuel dryness for the region.
    Holdovers also remain a concern given the recent lightning and
    forecast winds/RH.
