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...
The extended range will be characterized by a large-scale trough
over the Great Lakes/East and a ridge over the Desert
Southwest/Great Basin according to recent model guidance.
Cooler/drier air leading to a more tranquil pattern appears likely
for much of the area east of the Rockies. As a result, the
potential for organized severe thunderstorms will be limited through
the weekend into early next week.
