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 high will remain situated over Kansas and Oklahoma through
the D4-D8 period, with the primary storm track from the northern
Rockies into the Great Lakes. While low-amplitude waves may glance
the northern tier of states at times, most of the wave energy will
remain in Canada. In addition, predictability is low regarding the
timing of these features. While a moist air mass will lead to
scattered daytime storms from the MO/MS Valleys eastward into the OH
Valley, significant concentrations of severe storms are not
currently anticipated due to weak shear.
