SPC AC 230817
Day 3 Convective Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0217 AM CST Wed Feb 23 2022
Valid 251200Z - 261200Z
...NO THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
Thunderstorms are not expected across the continental United States
on Friday and Friday night.
...DISCUSSION...
A positively tilted upper-level trough will move eastward across the
western U.S. on Friday as west to west-southwest mid-level flow
remains over the southeastern and eastern states. At the surface, a
cold front will advance southeastward across the eastern Gulf Coast
states, Georgia and the Carolinas. Although surface dewpoints ahead
of the front will be from the mid 50s to mid 60s F, instability and
large-scale ascent are expected to be too weak for thunderstorm
development. Elsewhere across the continental United States, a cold
and dry airmass will limit thunderstorm potential Friday and Friday
night.
