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.

   Day 4-8 Convective Outlook  
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   0334 AM CDT Thu Sep 08 2022

   Valid 111200Z - 161200Z

   ...DISCUSSION...
   The latest medium-range guidance is not much different than prior
   runs concerning convective potential late next weekend into next
   week.  It still appears that mid-level flow may trend at least a bit
   more zonal and progressive to the south of the Canadian/U.S. border.
   However, in the wake of a mid-level closed low, initially forming
   within this regime across the northern Great Plains into upper
   Mississippi Valley this weekend, it appears that another mid-level
   high may at least attempt to build across the southern Great
   Plains/lower Mississippi Valley by the middle of next week.

   With regard to the mid-level low, model depiction of its evolution
   and eastward progression toward the Atlantic coast remains quite
   varied.  However, most guidance continues to indicate that
   associated surface cyclogenesis will remain relatively weak, with
   potential for substantive strengthening of low-level wind
   fields/shear and boundary instability in its warm sector rather low.
   This seems likely to at least marginalize the risk for severe
   storms, if not preclude.
