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.

   Valid 121200Z - 171200Z

   ...DISCUSSION...
   Severe potential will be low during the Day 4-8 period. Strong
   surface high pressure and an arctic airmass will persist across much
   of the CONUS through at least Day 7/Monday. Thunderstorms are
   possible across parts of GA/FL on Day 4/Friday as a cold front sags
   southward and stalls over northern FL. Severe storms are not
   expected with this activity given poor lapse rates and weak forcing.
   Given the persistent arctic airmass over the eastern two-thirds of
   the CONUS, thunderstorm activity will remain limited.
