Day 1 Convective Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0637 AM CST Sun Feb 06 2022
Valid 061300Z - 071200Z
...NO THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
Thunderstorms are not expected across the contiguous United States
today.
...Synopsis/Discussion...
A series of shortwave troughs will contribute to a high-amplitude,
positively tilted, slowly progressive, synoptic-scale trough this
period from the Upper Midwest and Great lakes to northwestern MX.
Downstream, a shortwave trough -- apparent in moisture-channel
imagery over portions of the Carolinas and southern GA -- will move
offshore by early afternoon. An associated frontal-wave low was
analyzed at 11Z just offshore from the east-central FL coastline,
with strengthening warm front extending northeastward. The low
should migrate erratically northward today and tonight, remaining
atop Atlantic waters in or near the Gulf Stream, while warm
frontogenesis continues northeast of the low (also over water).
Boundary-layer modification/destabilization along and east of the
trailing cold/stationary front, and near the warm front, will enable
some thunderstorm potential. However, thunderstorms should remain
over water for the rest of this period.
