Day 3 Convective Outlook 
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0215 AM CDT Sat Aug 31 2024

Valid 021200Z - 031200Z

...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

...SUMMARY...
Severe-weather potential is forecast to remain quite limited, and
isolated at best, across the U.S. on Monday.

...Discussion...
As a long-wave upper trough continues to shift across eastern Canada
and the eastern U.S. Monday, a cold front -- already off the New
England and Mid-Atlantic Coasts early in the day -- is forecast to
linger from the southeastern U.S. Atlantic Coast westward across the
Gulf Coast region.  This front will represent the southern/eastern
bounds of a cool/dry continental airmass from Canada -- represented
by large area of surface high pressure to enco*pass much of the
central and eastern CONUS.  Showers and thunderstorms are forecast
across the Southeast, Gulf Coast States, and Southern Plains area,
but with stronger flow aloft well to the north, severe-weather
potential should remain minimal.

In the West, an upper trough will shift east-northeastward across
the northwestern states, impinging on a persistent upper ridge.
Showers and scattered to isolated thunderstorms are expected across
portions of the West ahead of this system, but with little in the
way of severe potential evident due to meager instability forecast
across the area.
