No severe thunderstorms are expected across the U.S. on Friday. ...DISCUSSION... A mid-level trough over the Ozarks Friday morning is forecast to weaken and move east-northeastward into the Ohio Valley. At the surface, a cold front is forecast to advance southeastward into the lower Mississippi and Tennessee Valleys. Along and to the south of the front, isolated to scattered thunderstorms may develop in areas where instability and low-level convergence become maximized during the afternoon. Over the moist airmass, the combination of instability and deep-layer shear is expected to be insufficient for a severe threat. ..Broyles.. 09/30/2026 $$
