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 upper-air pattern will feature a series of troughs moving across
the Upper Midwest into the Northeast and resulting in a mean trough
situated over the Great Lakes during the extended period. Surface
high pressure will generally be located over the central U.S. with
little in the way of return flow into the northern Gulf Coast during
the latter part of the period. As a result, a low-potential
highlight for severe thunderstorm activity is warranted.
