SPC AC 121657
Day 2 Convective Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
1057 AM CST Sun Dec 12 2021
Valid 131200Z - 141200Z
...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
A few thunderstorms will be possible across the eastern Florida
Peninsula on Monday, and over parts of the West Coast and northern
California.
...Synopsis...
A broad region of southwest flow aloft will exist over the western
half of the CONUS on Monday as an upper trough amplifies and deepens
just off the West Coast. A 90 kt midlevel speed max will exist
during the day roughly from northern CA into ID, with gradual height
falls during the day. The strongest cooling aloft will occur after
00Z along the West Coast as a stronger, cyclonically curved speed
max noses into central CA into Tuesday morning.
While strong shear will be present over parts of CA, there will be
little to no SBCAPE present, but strong large-scale ascent and
minimal elevated instability may result in sporadic lightning
flashes.
Elsewhere, heights aloft will gradually rise over much of the East,
but a weak midlevel cool pocket will affect GA and FL. Here,
marginal moisture and instability may lead to a few deeper showers
or thunderstorms in the easterly low-level flow regime along the
eastern coast of FL, and perhaps across the Straits.
