557 ACUS02 KWNS 290544 SWODY2 SPC AC 290542 Day 2 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1242 AM CDT Sun Jun 29 2025 Valid 301200Z - 011200Z ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE MIDWEST TO THE MID-ATLANTIC... ...SUMMARY... Scattered strong to severe thunderstorms are possible across parts of the Ohio Valley, Midwest and the Mid-Atlantic on Monday. ...Synopsis... A mid-level trough will amplify as it moves into the Great Lakes on Monday with a persistent ridge across the western CONUS and a closed low off the California coast. At the surface, a cold front will move through the Midwest and Great Lakes. ...Midwest into the Great Lakes... Moderate instability is forecast to develop ahead of a cold front across the western Great Lakes/Midwest Monday afternoon as temperatures warm into the low 80s with dewpoints in the 70s. Mid-level lapse rates will not be that steep, but instability and forcing should be sufficient to support some strong updrafts. 30 to 40 knots of mid-level flow across the warm sector will lead to modest shear which could result in multicell clusters capable of damaging wind gusts. 00Z CAM guidance suggest the potential for storms ahead of and along the front with some post-frontal storms also possible across Wisconsin beneath the colder air aloft. This cooler air aloft may result in isolated large hail from the post-frontal storms. ...Mid Atlantic... Despite weak deep-layer flow/shear, a few wet microbursts will be possible east of the Appalachians during the afternoon, where steep low-level lapse rates will develop amid deep/rich tropospheric moisture (PW around 2 inches). ..Bentley.. 06/29/2025 $$
