719 ACUS03 KWNS 231923 SWODY3 SPC AC 231923 Day 3 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0223 PM CDT Mon Sep 23 2024 Valid 251200Z - 261200Z ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST... ...SUMMARY... Severe thunderstorm potential is uncertain, but limited, on Wednesday. ...Synopsis... The upper-level trough across the Midwest into the Mid-South is expected to evolve into a strong trough in the lower Great Lakes/Northeast and a cut-off low in the Ozarks. A surface cold front is expected to be positioned from near the upper Ohio Valley southward into Mid-South and westward into the southern Plains. In the Gulf of Mexico, current NHC forecasts show a hurricane moving north-northeastward in parts of the eastern Gulf. ...Western/central New York... A narrow warm sector may exist ahead of the cold front. Subtle forcing from the trough to the north may promote storm development during the afternoon. Given the potential for cloud cover/precipitation early in the day, along with the strongest mid-level ascent arriving during the evening, uncertainty is too high for severe probabilities. ...Mid-South/Southeast... Strong mid-level flow around the eventual cut-off low could allow for some storm organization near the cold front. There is a fairly strong signal for precipitation to be ongoing during morning and into the afternoon. Surface-based destabilization is at best uncertain and perhaps not very likely. No severe probabilities will be added. ...Portions of the Florida Peninsula... Given the forecast track of the tropical cyclone by NHC and available model guidance, there is some potential for low-level wind fields to increase in parts of the southern/central Florida Peninsula towards Thursday morning. Given the trough to the north of the expected hurricane and the uncertainty of the exact position of the system and any related outer convective bands, will continue to withhold low tornado probabilities. ..Wendt.. 09/23/2024 $$
