DAY 2 CONVECTIVE OUTLOOK
NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
1114 AM CST TUE JAN 14 2025
VALID 151200Z - 161200Z
..NO THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST
..SUMMARY
MINIMAL TO NO LIGHTNING IS EXPECTED ACROSS THE U.S. ON WEDNESDAY.
..DISCUSSION
A MID-LEVEL SHORT-WAVE TROUGH MOVING SOUTHEASTWARD ACROSS THE PLAINS
STATES WEDNESDAY WILL CONTRIBUTE TO AMPLIFICATION OF THE BROADER
TROUGHING/CYCLONIC FLOW OVER THE EASTERN U.S. THROUGH THE PERIOD.
AS THIS OCCURS, SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE REPRESENTING COLD/DRY
CONTINENTAL AIR WILL PREVAIL ACROSS MUCH OF THE COUNTRY THROUGH
THURSDAY MORNING.
GIVEN THE COOL/DRY/STABLE AIR DOMINATING THE COUNTRY, THUNDERSTORMS
ARE LARGELY PRECLUDED. AN EXCEPTION WILL BE OVER COASTAL SOUTH
TEXAS, WHERE WEAK CAPE ATOP A DEEP/STABLE BOUNDARY LAYER WILL
SUPPORT SCATTERED SHOWERS, AND POTENTIALLY A FEW LIGHTNING FLASHES.
HOWEVER, WITH COVERAGE OF ANY LIGHTNING STILL EXPECTED TO REMAIN
QUITE LIMITED, NO THUNDER AREA WILL BE ADDED AT THIS TIME.
