Day 1 Convective Outlook

Valid 131200Z - 141200Z
...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
A few thunderstorms will be possible across the eastern Florida
Peninsula, and over parts of the West Coast and northern California.
...West Coast...
Strong upper trough off the Pacific Coast will shift east during the
period as strong 500mb flow translates toward southern CA, west of
SBA, by sunrise Tuesday. Northern surface frontal segment will surge
inland along the OR/northern CA Coast after 18z then move east,
arcing from central ID-central NV-MRY by 14/12z. Forecast soundings
suggest SBCAPE on the order of 300 J/kg will likely develop within
marine influenced near-coastal areas. Strong onshore flow and
favorable large-scale support suggest offshore convection will
spread inland with some potential for lightning as mid-level
temperatures are seasonally cold and surface-6km lapse rates will be
steep.
...FL Peninsula...
Water-vapor imagery suggests a weak short-wave trough is located
over LA late this evening. This feature will track southeast toward
the FL Peninsula later today which should maintain a weak inverted
surface trough off the FL Atlantic Coast. Scattered weak convection
is currently noted 50-100mi east of MLB and this boundary should
focus a few thunderstorms through the period.
