Multiple mid-level troughs will traverse the CONUS while translating within a broader west-northwest to east-southeasterly upper level flow regime through the Days 4-8 period. Periodic bouts of surface high pressure will reinforce a statically stable, cool and dry airmass across most of the CONUS, limiting thunderstorm development. One exception will be with the Gulf Coast states early next week, when a surface low preceding one of the embedded mid-level troughs will encourage onshore flow from the Gulf. Should this occur, enough buoyancy will be in place (along with deep-layer ascent) to support thunderstorms. However, buoyancy may be too weak to support a severe threat. ..Squitieri.. 12/03/2025
