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...
   Models continue to suggest low pattern predictability in the
   extended range, with sizable spread concerning short wave
   developments within the westerlies across the northern mid-latitude
   Pacific into North America by next weekend, which grows further
   through early next week.  This includes the uncertain evolution of
   one short wave trough which probably will be in the process of
   digging into the northern Rockies vicinity by the beginning of this
   period.  Some model output has and continues to be suggestive that
   this impulse may contribute to larger-scale troughing splitting off
   the main belt of westerlies, with a slow moving embedded mid-level
   low eventually evolving somewhere across the Great Lakes vicinity
   next weekend.  But even within and among the models indicating this,
   there has been substantial spread.

   Regardless, it still appears that the evolution of a closed cyclonic
   mid-level circulation within weaker flow across the lower
   Mississippi Valley/central Gulf coast vicinity will hinder
   substantive moisture return (and associated destabilization) to
   continuing initial surface cyclogenesis across the eastern Canadian
   Prairies into southern Hudson Bay on Thursday.  While subsequent
   developments across the Great Lakes into upper Ohio Valley/Allegheny
   Plateau vicinity remain unclear, at this time there appears little
   signal within the guidance that suggests more than marginal or
   isolated severe weather potential through this period.
