Note on Medium Range Outlooks

You are looking at an outlook that is part of the medium range forecast (the outlook for days 4-8). The most important thing to note is that lack of a risk does not mean zero risk. Generally speaking, confidence has to be pretty high for the Storm Prediction Center to have an outlook area this far into the future.

When no specific risk areas are shown, you might see one of these phrases:

DISCUSSION

An upper shortwave trough will weaken as it spread east across the Northeast on Day 4/Thursday. As this occurs, a surface cold front will shift east/southeast across the Northeast and the Mid-Atlantic. A moist airmass will be in place, but vertical shear will weaken through the day and deep-layer flow will remain parallel to the surface boundary. Thunderstorms are expected in the vicinity of the front, but may tend to be just to the cool side of the boundary. Nevertheless, some low-end severe potential could develop from the Ohio Valley to the Mid-Atlantic as the front sags southward across the region.

During the weekend into early next week, forecast guidance suggests a more progressive upper pattern will emerge across the northern tier of the U.S. A series of shortwave upper troughs will move from the northern Rockies to the Great Lakes and eventually the Northeast during this time. Some severe risk is likely to develop ahead of the upper shortwave troughs around the Day 5/Friday to Day 8/Monday time period. However, large spread exists in both the timing and intensity of these upper trough, resulting in vastly different evolution and timing of key surface features (mainly surface low position). These differences have large implications for where the best corridors of severe potential will ultimately develop, but severe probabilities may become necessary in later outlooks for portions the northern/central Plains to the Upper Midwest during the weekend.
