Day 1 Convective Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0621 PM CST Wed Dec 17 2025
Valid 180100Z - 181200Z
...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
Isolated thunderstorms are possible along portions of the TX/LA Gulf
coasts tonight.
...01z Update...
Weak, southern-stream short-wave trough is advancing off the south
TX coast early this evening. A few thunderstorms linger near the
center of a weak midlevel circulation around the Corpus Christi
region; however, the most concentrated deep convection is now
focused offshore and should continue to be shunted east ahead of the
short wave.
Isolated thunderstorms may eventually develop ahead of this feature
downstream across southeast LA later tonight, but negligible
buoyancy currently exists on the 00z sounding from LIX. By the end
of the period, adequate destabilization should materialize across
this region such that lightning is possible with deep convection,
primarily after 08-09z.
