NEAR TERM...
(Now through Friday night)
Issued at 358 PM CDT Thu May 16 2024

Another active and very complicated weather pattern starts
tonight and continues through Saturday morning. Several shortwaves
will eject northeast from a very slow moving positive tilt trough
moving through the plains. The first wave is expected to move in
late this evening into the early morning hours on Friday and
affect mainly southern portions of the area. We expect this line
to be on a weakening trend, however gusty winds and heavy rain can
be expected. There is the possibility of a wake low developing
late tonight behind the line of showers and storms, bringing
gusty winds to the coastal and marine area. The left over boundary
from the morning convection will lift northward as a warm front
through the day on Friday and potentially provide a focus for
thunderstorm development. The pre-storm environment in the warm
sector after midday Friday south of a northeastward moving warm
front will have sufficient MLCAPE values around 1,500 to
2,200j/kg. Deep layer shear values as high as 50-55kts are
expected by Friday evening. Large hail and damaging wind gusts
will be the main threats. The tornado threat, while non-zero, will
be mitigated due to the weak low level shear values. The Storm
Prediction Center has placed the entire area in a Slight Risk for
severe storms on Friday. Another shortwave and associated MCS is
expected to approach the area Friday afternoon/evening. These
storms could again pose a damaging wind and large hail threat.
Additional showers and storms are possible into Saturday as the
approaching cold front.

The multiple rounds of rain on already saturated grounds will create
the risk for flooding through Saturday. WPC had a moderate risk
across northwest portions of the area with a slight risk across the
remainder of the area. We have issued a Flood Watch for the entire
area starting tonight at midnight. A high risk of rip currents is in
effect from Friday morning through Sunday afternoon. /13

SHORT TERM...
(Saturday through Saturday night)
Issued at 358 PM CDT Thu May 16 2024

Active weather continues into Saturday as a final shortwave
ejects northeastward across the local area. At the surface, hi-res
model guidance suggests that a remnant outflow boundary from
previous storms should be lingering across the area, possibly near
the I-65 corridor. This outflow will serve as a focus for one
last round of showers and storms to develop as the shortwave
passes overhead. The primary concern with these storms will be
heavy, training rainfall which could lead to continued flooding
concerns across the area, especially over areas that see a copious
amount of rainfall on Friday. Because of this, the Flood Watch
will remain in effect through early Saturday afternoon (although
if rainfall lingers a bit longer, then a small extension to the
watch is possible). Deep-layer shear remains rather strong (around
50 knots) as a mid to upper jet develops overhead, however, the
biggest question will be if we can destabilize again in the wake
of the storms that moved through the area the previous night. If
we can destabilize, then shear will be strong enough to allow for
some storm organization, which could lead to the development of a
few strong to severe storms. A Marginal Risk of severe weather is
in place across much of the area on Saturday to account for this
possibility.

The main trough passes overhead Saturday night, with rain chances
quickly decreasing from west to east throughout the overnight hours
as a drier airmass advects in from the northwest. Highs on Saturday
will reach the low to mid 80s. Lows Saturday night will only drop
into the mid to upper 60s, with low 70s along the immediate coast.
The rip current risk remains high through the period. /96

LONG TERM...
(Sunday through Thursday)
Issued at 358 PM CDT Thu May 16 2024

Upper-level troughing will slowly push into the western Atlantic
as an upper ridge builds over the western Gulf. Subsidence from
this ridge, along with high pressure developing over the southeast
US, will keep the local area dry through at least Tuesday.
Isolated to scattered rain chances return to the forecast by
midweek as a shortwave moves across the Tennessee River Valley and
the ridge sinks back to the southwest. Temperatures will remain
quite warm, with highs generally in the upper 80s to low 90s and
lows in the mid to upper 60s inland to lower 70s along the coast.

MARINE...
Issued at 358 PM CDT Thu May 16 2024

Southerly winds will increase to moderate by Friday, along with
building seas, ahead of an approaching front. The approaching
front will bring showers and thunderstorms to the marine area
tonight through Saturday. It should be noted that a wake low may
possibly develop late tonight behind the initial line of storms,
which could lead to a brief window of gusty winds for marine zones
near the coast. A light offshore flow returns late in the weekend
into early next week in the wake of the front. /96
