Note: A severe weather area depicted in the Day 4-8 period indicates 15%, 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 unlikely (i.e., less than 15%) for the forecast day.

...DISCUSSION...
An upper low is forecast to remain over the Southeast for several
more days, with high pressure over much of the East. This will
continue to affect boundary layer moisture quality across the Plains
where southerly winds will persist beneath a weakening upper ridge.
For the Tuesday/D4 and Wednesday/D5 period, an upper low will move
east from the Pacific Northwest into the northern Plains, with a
gradual shift in jet energy into Canada. A belt of strong southwest
winds aloft will shift east across the northern Plains and into the
upper MS Valley through Thursday/D6, along with a surface trough.
Although storms will be possible with this system from the Dakotas
into MN, the instability, in addition to the surface pattern, both
suggest low-end severe potential.
