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...
Depending on the track of Tropical Cyclone Beta, there may be a
continued low-end severe risk along parts of the middle/upper TX
Coast into LA and perhaps the lower MS Valley from Day 4/Tuesday
through Day 6/Thursday. However, far too much uncertainty exists
regarding Beta's location at this extended time frame to include any
severe probabilities. Otherwise, severe potential across the
remainder of the CONUS will likely remain limited through Day
6/Thursday, as more substantial low-level moisture should be
confined to parts of coastal TX/LA and the lower MS Valley. By the
end of next week, large differences are apparent in guidance
regarding the synoptic-scale upper pattern across the CONUS. Some
potential for greater low-level moisture return appears possible
across parts of the MS Valley, Upper Midwest, and vicinity by next
Saturday, but predictability remains low.
