Note: A severe weather area depicted in the Day 4-8 period indicates a 30% or higher probability for severe thunderstorms within 25 miles of any point.
PREDICTABILITY TOO LOW is used to indicate severe storms may be possible based on some model scenarios. However, the location or occurrence of severe storms are in doubt due to: 1) large differences in the deterministic model solutions, 2) large spread in the ensemble guidance, and/or 3) minimal run-to-run continuity.
POTENTIAL TOO LOW means the threat for a regional area of organized severe storms appears highly unlikely during the entire period (e.g. less than a 30% probability for a regional severe storm area across the CONUS through the entire Day 4-8 period).

   DAY 4-8 CONVECTIVE OUTLOOK  
   NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
   0354 AM CDT FRI JUN 20 2014

   VALID 231200Z - 281200Z

   ...DISCUSSION...
   LATEST MEDIUM RANGE GUIDANCE SUGGEST SEVERAL DISTURBANCES WILL
   TRANSLATE ACROSS THE CONUS WITHIN WEAK LARGE SCALE FLOW REGIME. 
   WITH PW VALUES WELL ABOVE ONE INCH ACROSS MOST REGIONS EAST OF THE
   ROCKIES...DEEP CONVECTION IS LIKELY IN ASSOCIATION WITH EACH
   DISTURBANCE.  WHILE ROBUST CONVECTION SHOULD EVOLVE WITHIN STRONGER
   POCKETS OF HEATING THE LIKELIHOOD FOR SIGNIFICANT ORGANIZED SEVERE
   THUNDERSTORMS APPEARS LOW GIVEN THE FORECAST DEEP LAYER SHEAR.
