Day 3 Convective Outlook

Valid 031200Z - 041200Z

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER PARTS OF
THE LOWER TO MIDDLE MISSISSIPPI VALLEY AND TOWARD THE SABINE
RIVER...

...SUMMARY...
Scattered storms will occur from the Sabine and Lower Mississippi
Valleys northward into the Mid Mississippi Valley on Tuesday. A few
thunderstorms may produce damaging gusts.

...Discussion...
On Tuesday, an amplified upper trough will move east out of the
Plains and toward the MS Valley, with an expansive region of
south/southwest winds aloft from the Sabine Valley to the Upper
Great Lakes. Southerly surface winds will further transport moisture
northward with 60s F dewpoints to the Mid MS Valley, and upper 60s F
into the Lower MS Valley. 

The elongated surface trough/wind shift will support rain and
thunderstorms through the period as the trough gradually shifts
east. Some diurnal increase in storm intensity is possible, and the
greatest potential for isolated severe storms should be over
southern parts of the MS Valley and to the Sabine River where
instability will be strongest. Wind profiles will be marginally
supportive of severe storms with 30-35 kt effective shear over
southern areas. Farther north into MO and IL, shear will be
stronger, but instability will be quite weak. Strong wind gusts
appear to be the main threat.
