   ACUS03 KWNS 151930 SWODY3 SPC AC 151929 Day 3 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0229 PM CDT Mon Sep 15 2025 Valid 171200Z - 181200Z ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST... ...SUMMARY... Severe thunderstorm potential is low on Wednesday. ...Synopsis... An upper trough over the central/northern High Plains will make limited progress eastward into the Plains on Wednesday. This feature is expected to broaden and become more disorganized with time. A surface trough/cold front from the central Plains into the southern High Plains will similarly be mostly stationary until later in the period. Mid-level flow in the Plains will generally remain weak with only a modest increase behind the cold front closer to the upper trough. Morning clouds and precipitation are expected to be ongoing in the central Plains and parts of the southern High Plains. Upper 50s to mid 60s F dewpoints will be ahead of the boundary. This will lead to weak to moderate buoyancy. Thunderstorms are likely in the Front Range where low-end moisture and upslope flow overlap. This activity may not be very intense given the buoyancy and uncertain low-level thermodynamics. Thunderstorms in Kansas/Oklahoma will have greater buoyancy, but shear will be more limited. Depending on the position of the front and destabilization, isolated to widely scattered thunderstorms could develop in the Raton Mesa vicinity. Marginal northwesterly deep-layer shear could promote a couple of stronger storms given steep lapse rates. However, confidence in a more organized severe threat in the Plains remains low at this time. ..Wendt.. 09/15/2025 $$ |
