Day 1 Convective Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
1148 PM CST Sat Dec 11 2021
Valid 121200Z - 131200Z
...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
A few thunderstorms will be possible across the coastal Pacific
Northwest through late afternoon.
...Pacific Northwest...
Upper heights will gradually fall across the Pacific Northwest today
as secondary upper trough approaches coastal WA/OR/northern CA late
in the period. Very cold temperatures aloft will result in steep
lower-tropospheric lapse rates such that scattered convection should
easily develop within onshore maritime air mass. Forecast soundings
suggest a few hundred J/kg SBCAPE should be adequate for updrafts to
penetrate levels necessary for lightning. Updrafts should wane after
sunset as boundary layer cools.
