    ...DISCUSSION...
    ...Day 4/Tue - Southeast...
    A cold front will continue east across the Southeast on Tuesday as a
    surface low deepens across the Upper Midwest. This strengthening
    surface low, will sharpen the cold front during the day as it
    advances east. Weak to potentially moderate instability is expected
    across MS/AL ahead of this cold front. Mid-level flow will
    strengthen through the day and provide ample deep-layer shear for
    storm organization. A few supercells capable of isolated large hail
    may be possible. A focused zone of severe weather potential likely
    exists from central Mississippi to northern Alabama, but
    probabilities are not high enough to warrant a 15% contour at this
    time.

    ...Day 5/Wed - East Coast...
    As this cold front continues east on Wednesday, low 60s dewpoints
    will continue to advect northward ahead of the cold front.
    Instability is forecast to remain mostly weak across the Carolinas
    and into eastern Virginia on Wednesday, but given the strong wind
    field, some damaging wind gusts may be possible.

    High pressure will bring a dry/cool airmass to much of the eastern
    CONUS by the end of next week which will limit severe weather
    potential.

    Southerly return flow is forecast to resume by next weekend which
    could eventually lead to renewed severe weather potential across
    portions of the Southern Plains and eventually the Southeast.

    ...DISCUSSION...
    The warm sector will be onshore at the beginning of the period
    D4/Wed from the Southeast coast to the Carolinas. This may permit a
    few thunderstorms along the cold front early Wednesday before the
    front moves into the Atlantic. In the wake of this front, cool, dry
    air and high pressure will build across much of the central and
    eastern CONUS. This will result in minimal thunderstorm
    activity/severe weather potential Thursday and Friday.

    By next weekend, return flow will resume across the southern Plains
    and thunderstorm chances will increase. Most guidance shows a large
    trough across the western CONUS by the end of the weekend and into
    early next week, but the orientation, size, and timing of this
    trough remains uncertain. Severe weather potential will likely
    return at some point given the approaching trough and inland
    moisture intrusion, but uncertainties are too high for severe
    weather probabilities at this time.

    ...DISCUSSION...
    Thunderstorm activity should be minimal Thursday and Friday as high
    pressure ushers in a cool, dry airmass across much of the eastern
    CONUS. By late Friday night, return flow across Texas may lead to
    some weak destabilization and thunderstorm chances.

    Severe thunderstorms are possible Day6/Saturday to Day8/Monday
    across the southern Plains as the warm sector expands across Texas
    and mid-level trough amplifies across the western CONUS. Evolution
    of this mid-level trough remains uncertain. The GFS, AIGFS, and
    EC-AIFS all suggest a slower evolution of the trough with a deeper
    closed low across the Southwest. However, the operational ECMWF is
    more progressive and would actually suggest an end to severe weather
    potential by Monday with offshore flow across the Gulf Coast once
    again. At this time, the consensus pattern for a slower, more
    amplified trough seems most likely, especially given that previous
    12Z and 00Z ECMWF model runs preferred this solution as well.

    Severe thunderstorms will be possible with this preferred pattern,
    but uncertainty in the evolution of the mid-level trough and timing
    preclude severe weather probabilities at this time.

    ...DISCUSSION...
    Thunderstorm potential should be limited during the day on D4/Friday
    with high pressure and a dry, continental polar airmass across much
    of the country. By Friday night, return flow across Texas will
    strengthen as a 40 to 50 knot low-level jet develops. This may
    result in some weak elevated thunderstorms late Friday night and
    early Saturday.

    ...D5/Sat to D8/Tue...
    Severe thunderstorms may be possible from the southern Plains to the
    Gulf Coast this weekend and into early next week. Mid to upper 60s
    dewpoints are expected either onshore or close to onshore by this
    weekend. However, evolution of the mid-level pattern remains quite
    uncertain. This mid-level pattern will largely dictate the timing
    and inland penetration of richer low-level moisture and instability.
    Therefore, broad severe weather potential exists Saturday to
    Tuesday, but more specific timing or intensity information is not
    available at his time due to the large uncertainties.

    ...DISCUSSION...
    A progressive upper air pattern is expected through the remainder of
    this week into the middle of next week, with multiple mid-level
    troughs poised to develop and amplify while progressing across the
    CONUS. This pattern will support cooler temperatures across the
    northern half of the U.S. through the extended period, resulting
    stable low-level conditions and limited potential for thunderstorm
    development. However, the passage of multiple mid-level troughs will
    result in surface low development, accompanied by moisture return
    and at least some thunderstorm potential across the southern Plains
    into the Southeast on a few occasions.

    First, a surface low will rapidly translate from the southern Plains
    to the Great Lakes on Day 4/Saturday, becoming displaced from the
    moisture axis with time. Before departing the southern Plains, an
    appreciable fetch of low-level moisture will become established over
    the Sabine River Valley ahead of a surface cold front. It is
    plausible that at least a few strong to potentially severe
    thunderstorms could develop. However, the rapid departure of the
    surface low will reduce deep-layer ascent, with storm coverage
    ultimately in question (hence no severe probabilities being
    introduced at this time).

    Medium range guidance consensus has the next in a series of
    mid-level troughs amplifying over the southern Plains, which may
    support surface low development somewhere over the Lower MS Valley
    early next week. Should this occur, isolated strong to severe storms
    cannot be ruled out along the Gulf Coast. However, the development,
    track, or evolution of the surface low is currently unclear in the
    guidance, warranting the withholding of severe probabilities for
    now.

    ...DISCUSSION...
    A progressive upper pattern will overspread the CONUS next week,
    ushering in multiple rounds of surface high pressure across the
    western, northern, and eastern CONUS. Thunderstorm development
    should thus be limited over much of the U.S. through the extended
    forecast period. One exception may be portions of the Gulf Coast
    early next week. By around Day 6 (Tuesday), medium-range guidance
    depicts a pronounced mid-level trough amplifying over the Middle MS
    Valley, supporting surface low development along the southeast Gulf
    Coast. Seasonal low-level moisture may advect a few hundred miles
    inland from the coast, ahead of the surface low. If this occurs,
    isolated severe thunderstorms may develop along the warm front.
    However, timing and placement of the surface low differs too much
    among medium range guidance for the introduction of severe
    probabilities this far in advance.

    ...DISCUSSION...
    A progressive upper-air pattern will prevail over the CONUS through
    next week, supporting multiple rounds of surface high pressure
    overspreading the Interior West, Great Plains, OH Valley, and much
    of the Northeast. Static stability will limit thunderstorm
    development over most locales. However, a couple instances of
    surface low development are possible along the Gulf Coast this
    upcoming week, which may support thunderstorm development as
    seasonably rich low-level moisture returns inland, beneath
    deep-layer ascent.

    A surface low may first traverse the Gulf Coast on Day 5/Tuesday,
    with a few strong thunderstorms possible along the warm front
    (assuming adequate buoyancy can materialize). A similar pattern of
    surface low development and progression along the Gulf Coast may
    also occur on Day 8/Friday, with thunderstorms also possible.
    Nonetheless, questions about the timing and track of the surface
    lows, and the degree of instability preceding them, warrant the
    withholding of severe probabilities for this outlook.

    A broad mid-level trough will eject into the Atlantic while another
    mid-level trough gradually progresses across the CONUS this upcoming
    week into next weekend. A surface low will rapidly track from the
    southeast Gulf Coast, northeastward along the Eastern Seaboard Day
    4/Tuesday, supporting thunderstorm development along the Southeast
    Coast and the FL Peninsula. Thereafter, surface high pressure and
    associated static stability should limit thunderstorm development
    over most locales until late in the week into the weekend. By this
    point, moisture return across the western Gulf Coast region may
    foster enough buoyancy to support thunderstorm potential. It is
    plausible that strong to perhaps isolated severe thunderstorms may
    develop over the TX Coastal Plain in the Days 6-7 (Thursday-Friday)
    time frame if the moisture can become rich/deep enough to support
    greater buoyancy. However, the lack in medium-range guidance
    agreement lends too little confidence in this scenario for the
    introduction of severe probabilities this far in advance.

    A series of mid-level troughs will progress across the central and
    eastern CONUS this week, which will usher in surface high pressure
    and associated cold, stable air for much of the northern, central
    and eastern CONUS to the end of this week. By around Days 6-8
    (Friday-Sunday), the passage of a mid-level trough across the
    central Plains into the TN Valley may encourage surface low
    development along the Gulf Coast. Here, enough moisture return is
    anticipated for a chance of scattered thunderstorms. Medium-range
    guidance hints at the possibility of a high shear/low CAPE parameter
    space shaping up along the Gulf Coast during this time frame.
    However, details on the exact placement of features, such as the
    surface low or warm front, differ too much among medium-range
    guidance members for the introduction of severe probabilities for
    now.

    A series of progressive mid-level troughs, embedded in broader

    multiple rounds of surface high pressure across most of the CONUS,
    with static stability limiting thunderstorm development over most
    locales. There is the chance that ahead of some of the high pressure
    surges that some low-level moisture could advect inland from the
    Gulf. Should this occur, at least isolated to scattered
    thunderstorms will be possible. Compared to earlier medium-range
    guidance, some of the most recent guidance has diverged in agreement
    of a more robustly buoyant airmass advecting inland through this
    weekend into early next week. As such, it currently does not appear
    that an organized severe threat will materialize in the Days 4-8
    period.

    buoyancy will be in place (along with deep-layer ascent) to support thunderstorms. However, buoyancy may be too weak to support a severe

    Medium-range guidance indicates that at least modestly amplified
    mid/upper ridging will continue to build and be maintained across
    the Pacific coast into the Rockies through next week. Within the
    northwesterly flow downstream of this feature, several digging short
    wave perturbations appear likely to reinforce large-scale troughing
    across the eastern U.S., while also contributing to occasional
    surface cyclogenesis from the lee of the northern Rockies through
    the northern and middle Atlantic Seaboard. However, these are not
    likely to be accompanied by a strengthening southerly return flow
    emanating from the Gulf Basin. Regardless, in the wake of a
    reinforcing cold intrusion across much of the Florida Peninsula, and
    through much of the Gulf Basin, early next week, it appears that
    boundary-layer modification over the Gulf will not become conducive
    to appreciable inland low-level moisture return.

    and to the north of the Aleutians, it appears that the large-scale
    mid/upper flow pattern may not appreciably change, aside from
    perhaps some amplification, across North America into next weekend.
    Models indicate that large-scale mid/upper ridging will generally be
    maintained across the Pacific Coast through Rockies, with downstream
    troughing across the Mississippi Valley into western Atlantic.

    Short wave developments within this regime are forecast to lead to
    another notable intrusion of cold/dry air to the lee of the Rockies,
    through much of the Southeast and Gulf Basin, late this coming week
    into next weekend. It appears that this will occur before Gulf
    boundary-layer modification, in the wake of the prior cold/dry
    intrusion, can become potentially supportive of a substantive moist
    return flow.

    ...DISCUSSION...
    After becoming suppressed a bit, medium-range guidance indicates
    that a blocking high may become more prominent again, near/north of
    the Aleutians late this coming work week into next weekend.
    Surrounding developments across the mid- and higher latitudes of the
    Pacific do become characterized by increasing spread. However, it is
    not yet clear how much impact this will have on downstream flow
    across North America. It still appears that an increasingly
    confluent northwesterly mid-level regime, between persistent ridging
    across the eastern Pacific into western North America and downstream
    troughing, may support the development of another expansive surface
    ridge east of the Rockies into the Gulf Basin and Atlantic Seaboard
    late this week through next weekend. This is likely to further
    impede deep boundary-layer moistening over the northwestern Gulf.
    Coupled with the lack of a developing southerly return flow from
    the Gulf Basin until at least early next week, it appears that
    generally stable conditions will be maintained through this period.

    ...DISCUSSION...
    Downstream of a prominent blocking high, which may be maintained
    near/north of the Aleutians vicinity through this period, latest
    medium-range output suggests that flow across the mid-latitude
    Pacific through North America may trend less amplified by next
    weekend into early next week. Relatedly, guidance is becoming more
    unclear how impactful cold air, initially building to the lee of the Canadian/northern U.S. Rockies by late this week, will be in terms
    of drying across the northern Gulf Basin, as it noses
    south/southeastward in one or two surges through the remainder of
    the period.

    It now appears at least a bit more of a possibility that a weak to
    modest elevated, if not boundary-layer based, Gulf moisture return
    could occur on a developing southerly return flow, across parts of
    the northwestern Gulf coast into southern Great Plains next weekend
    into early next week. This could promote destabilization supportive
    of a risk for thunderstorm development. However, with surface
    cyclogenesis appearing unlikely to the lee of the southern Rockies,
    the potential for severe weather appears low in the presence of
    limited large-scale forcing for ascent and vertical shear.
