Day 1 Convective Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
1110 AM CDT Thu Oct 17 2024
Valid 171630Z - 181200Z
...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
Organized severe thunderstorms are not expected through tonight.
...Western States...
A large upper trough will dig southeastward across the mountainous
west today and tonight. This will provide increasing large-scale
ascent and increasing mid-level moisture for scattered showers and
thunderstorms across much of the Rockies and Great Basin. Visible
satellite imagery shows widespread high clouds over much of this
area, which should limit daytime heating and destabilization.
Strengthening winds aloft could pose a risk for gusty winds in the
strongest cells this afternoon, but the risk of severe storms
appears low.
