Day 3 Convective Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
1233 PM CST Wed Jan 08 2025

Valid 101200Z - 111200Z

...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

...SUMMARY...
Severe thunderstorms are not forecast through Friday night.

...Central to eastern Gulf Coast...
Thunder potential appears quite limited on Friday as poor to weak
mid-level lapse rates persist downstream of a positive-tilt longwave
trough. Buoyancy inland appears negligible, but meager MUCAPE over
the north-central Gulf may be sufficient for a thin, low-topped
convective line to shift east through the day from coastal southeast
LA through the FL Panhandle. Surface dew points may reach the mid
60s near the mouth of the MS River, and into the low 60s elsewhere
along the coast near the cyclone track. This could be adequate for
strong gusts mixing to the surface given fast flow aloft. Will
maintain a thunder area to highlight this potential despite the
expectation of minimal prospects for charge separation.
