NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
0736 AM CDT SUN JUL 12 2026
AREAS AFFECTED...PORTIONS OF THE UPPER PENINSULA OF MICHIGAN
CONCERNING...SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH POSSIBLE
VALID 121236Z - 121430Z
PROBABILITY OF WATCH ISSUANCE...40 PERCENT
SUMMARY...SUPERCELLS MAY TRACK SOUTHWARD THROUGH THE MORNING WITH
POTENTIAL FOR LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WIND.
DISCUSSION...A SUPERCELL IS TRACKING SOUTHWARD ACROSS LAKE SUPERIOR
TOWARDS THE KEWEENAW PENINSULA. THERE IS SOME UNCERTAINTY IN HOW FAR
SOUTH THIS STORM WILL BE SUSTAINED, AS AN ADDITIONAL SUPERCELL TO
THE NORTH WEAKENED QUICKLY. OVERNIGHT GUIDANCE HAS HANDLED THE
EVOLUTION OF THESE STORMS POORLY, LEADING TO LOW CONFIDENCE IN MORE
RECENT RUNS. THE ENVIRONMENT DOWNSTREAM HAS BEEN STEADILY BECOMING
MORE UNSTABLE, WITH AN EML ADVECTING EASTWARD ACROSS THE REGION.
CURRENTLY, TEMPERATURES DOWNSTREAM OF LAKE SUPERIOR ACROSS THE UP OF
MICHIGAN ARE COOLER, IN THE UPPER 60S TO 70S WITH DECREASING
INSTABILITY/DEEP LAYER SHEAR TO THE SOUTH FURTHER INLAND. IT IS
POSSIBLE THAT THIS INITIAL WAVE OF STORMS MAY WEAKEN AS THEY MOVE
INLAND. CUMULUS IS DEEPENING TO THE NORTH OF THESE INITIAL CELLS
ACROSS SOUTHERN ONTARIO, WHICH MAY LEAD TO ADDITIONAL THUNDERSTORM
DEVELOPMENT OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS. TRENDS WILL BE MONITORED
BUT FOR NOW THE SEVERE POTENTIAL APPEARS TO BE ISOLATED.
