Day 4-8 Convective Outlook 
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0305 AM CST Wed Nov 20 2024

Valid 231200Z - 281200Z

...DISCUSSION...
An upper trough will move out of the northeastern states from Sat/D4
into Sun/D5, with the ridge flattening over the Plains. This will
result in a broad belt of near zonal flow across much of the CONUS,
with perhaps a slight propensity for cyclonic height curvature over
the Great Lakes into eastern Canada.

Low-level moisture return will occur gradually, especially from
Mon/D6 onward when 60s dewpoints may extend from eastern TX into the
lower MS Valley. However, not until around Tue Night/D7 do most
models show any appreciable instability, and even then it will
likely be weak. As such, severe storms are not forecast. However, a
few strong storms cannot be ruled out by around Wed/D8 due to
several days of persistent moistening, especially if a shortwave
trough can amplify within the strong flow regime.
