Convective Outlooks

Convective Outlooks
The convective outlooks serve as guidance to the local NWS forecast offices and are used by emergency managers, private sector meteorologists, media, and other weather customers concerned with public safety. Three separate risk areas (slight, moderate, and high) are used to describe the expected coverage and intensity for the categorical severe weather threat on days 1-3 along with severe weather probabilities for the potential threat.

Day 1 Outlook Convective Tornado Hail Wind

Categorical Day1 1200Z Outlook    Probability of a tornado within 25 miles of a point. Hatched Area: 10% or greater probability of EF2 - EF5 tornadoes within 25 miles of a point. Probability of one inch diameter hail or larger within 25 miles of a point. Hatched Area: 10% or greater probability of two inch diameter hail or larger within 25 miles of a point. Probability of damaging thunderstorm winds or wind gusts of 50 knots or higher within 25 miles of a point. Hatched Area: 10% or greater probability of wind gusts 65 knots or greater within 25 miles of a point.

...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WESTERN AND
CENTRAL KS INTO NORTHERN OK...

...SUMMARY...
The greatest severe-storm threat this evening into tonight is from
central and western Kansas into northern Oklahoma, with severe wind,
damaging hail and a few tornadoes possible.

...KS and OK vicinity this evening and tonight...
A mid-level low/shortwave trough evident on water vapor imagery this
evening will slowly move eastward across KS through early Sunday
morning.  An associated mid-level cold pocket and a moist boundary
layer has resulted in a moderate buoyancy (1500 J/kg MLCAPE) per the
Dodge City evening raob.  Models show storm development to increase
primarily after sunset across western/central KS as a southerly LLJ
strengthens.  Upscale growth into an eventual cluster or two is
expected over KS before moving southeast into OK late tonight into
early Sunday morning.  Hail/wind will be the primary risks with the
activity this evening into the overnight hours.

...ND this evening...
A surface trough located near the ND/MT border is serving as a focus
for thunderstorm development this evening.  Adequate instability
east of the surface trough may foster a couple of strong storms this
evening before gradual boundary layer stabilization limits overall
storm intensity by late evening.
