The introduction of a frontal boundary with upper air support,
albeit weakening, will be enough to touch off thunderstorms
during the heat of the day tmrw...and there is enough juice in
the environment to support strong to potentially severe storm
chances. We'll get plenty unstable with 3-4K MUCAPEs during peak
heating, although we think with the incoming storm chances
ramping up the NBM might be a tad high with its high temps in
the lower 90s...that will depend on the convective cloud canopy
timing. Not a lot of overall shear but a little uptick with the
wave and good lapse rates in excess of 7C in the lower 3KM just
as the wave enters the forecast picture should be enough to
offset, and soundings support wet microburst potential. PW's
still hovering around 2" likewise keep heavy rain/localized
flooding a potentiality as well. A general night-time pause is
expected before another similar round of pops/strong storm
potential Sunday afternoon/evening, although with the models
signaling more convective noise overall during that time frame,
that might nudge down the overall scope potential at least vs
Saturday.
Beyond the stormy weekend chances, we resume a relatively
speaking 'seasonal' mid July forecast thereafter, with at least
some daily storm chance as highs range from the upper 80s to
around 90 and dew points hover around 70. Heat of day activity
will offer the best such chances.
