DAY 2 CONVECTIVE OUTLOOK
NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
1135 AM CDT FRI OCT 01 2010

VALID 021200Z - 031200Z

...NO SVR TSTM AREAS FORECAST...

...SYNOPSIS...
A HIGHLY AMPLIFIED LONGWAVE REGIME WILL REMAIN OVER THE CONUS
THROUGH SATURDAY. THIS SCENARIO WILL BE HIGHLIGHTED BY A DEEPENING
LONGWAVE TROUGH OVER THE EASTERN THIRD OF THE CONUS...WITH BROAD
UPPER RIDGING DOMINANT OVER THE ROCKIES/WEST EXCEPT FOR A LINGERING
UPPER LOW NEAR THE COAST OF SOUTHERN CA. COOL/STABLE CONDITIONS WILL
CONSIDERABLY LIMIT TSTM/SEVERE POTENTIAL ESPECIALLY EAST OF THE
ROCKIES.

...SOUTHERN CA/LOWER CO RIVER VALLEY AND SOUTHWEST STATES...
AS A PERSISTENT UPPER LOW PIVOTS NEAR THE SOUTHERN CA
COAST...AMPLE/ABOVE NORMAL PRECIPITABLE WATER WILL CONTRIBUTE TO
ISOLATED TO PERHAPS SCATTERED TSTMS...ESPECIALLY SATURDAY
AFTERNOON/EVENING ACROSS INTERIOR SOUTHERN CA/SOUTHERN SIERRA AND
SOUTHERN NV...TO THE FOUR CORNERS VICINITY. A WARM/MOIST BUT
WELL-MIXED LAYER WILL PROBABLY YIELD SOME STRONGER DOWNDRAFTS/GUSTY
WINDS ACROSS INTERIOR SOUTHERN CA AND/OR THE LOWER CO RIVER VALLEY.
HOWEVER...SUCH A THREAT CURRENTLY APPEARS TOO LOCALIZED/TOO MARGINAL
FOR SEVERE PROBABILITIES...AS MODEST VERTICAL SHEAR WILL OTHERWISE
LIMIT INDIVIDUAL STORM ORGANIZATION/SUSTENANCE.

...OH VALLEY/LAKE ERIE VICINITY...
LOW TOPPED CONVECTION IS PROBABLE ACROSS PORTIONS OF THE OH
VALLEY/LAKE ERIE VICINITY ON SATURDAY IN TANDEM WITH A FAST MOVING
WEAK SURFACE LOW/COLD FRONT. GIVEN SCANT BOUNDARY LAYER
MOISTURE...IT IS UNCLEAR WHETHER UPDRAFTS WILL HAVE SUFFICIENT DEPTH
FOR CHARGE SEPARATION/CLOUD-GROUND LIGHTNING. CURRENT EXPECTATIONS
ARE FOR A LIMITED LIKELIHOOD/SPARSE COVERAGE OF ANY TSTMS.
