.PREV DISCUSSION… /ISSUED 1100 AM CDT Fri Oct 31 2025/

Synopsis and Discussion

With longwave upper troughing dominating east of the Rockies and the prevalence of continental surface trajectories, the large-scale pattern will remain generally unfavorable for thunderstorms over the CONUS today. Occasional lightning flashes could occur across northern New England with focused ascent near a surface low and northward-shifting front, but this potential will remain limited and further diminish this afternoon. Weak elevated convection may develop late tonight across west-central Texas as low-level warm advection increases, but forecast thermodynamic profiles suggest that charge separation is unlikely prior to 12Z Saturday.

Day 2 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1205 PM CDT Fri Oct 31 2025

Valid 011200Z - 021200Z

THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS COASTAL TEXAS

### SUMMARY

Strong to isolated severe storms capable of large hail will be possible on Saturday late afternoon/evening across portions of Coastal Texas.

Synopsis

A positively tilted mid-level trough will amplify as it moves across the southern Plains on Saturday. A cold front will accompany this trough and race south across Texas during the day. Low-level moisture will remain mostly offshore, but at least some deeper moisture may push a few counties inland across the Texas coastal counties.

Texas Coast

Mostly weak instability is forecast to develop across coastal areas of south and southeast Texas on Saturday morning and afternoon as temperatures warm into the 70s with dewpoints potentially as high as the low 60s. A significant warm nose between 850 and 700mb will suppress convection for much of the day. However, by late afternoon/early evening, as forcing increases ahead of the approaching trough and with the southward moving cold front, expect inhibition to erode and scattered thunderstorms to develop. The greatest instability will likely remain offshore or right along the coast. Therefore, there is a relatively limited areal extent for storm maturity. Nonetheless, expect a few strong to isolated severe supercells to develop right along the coast with large hail as the primary threat.

Outlook Summary

Isolated thunderstorms will be possible across parts of the southern Florida Peninsula on Sunday, but no severe threat is expected.

Day 3 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0224 PM CDT Fri Oct 31 2025

Valid 021200Z - 031200Z

NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST

### SUMMARY

Isolated thunderstorms will be possible across parts of the southern Florida Peninsula on Sunday, but no severe threat is expected.

Discussion

A dry, continental airmass will continue to dominate much of the CONUS. The only exception will be southern Florida where some northward moisture recovery is anticipated. Weak instability may result in a few thunderstorms during the day. In addition, a greater thunderstorm threat may materialize Sunday night as a cluster of storms associated with a mid-level shortwave trough across the Gulf approaches South Florida. Weak lapse rates and instability should limit overall severe weather potential with these storms.

Outlook for Monday, November 3

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:

Valid 031200Z - 081200Z

DISCUSSION

Monday/Day 4 to Wednesday/Day 6

West-northwesterly mid-level flow will be in place over the eastern two-thirds of the nation during the early to mid-week. Through this time, surface high pressure will remain dominant from the Great Plains eastward into the eastern U.S. Further west, a mid-level trough is forecast to move into California on Wednesday. Thunderstorms will be possible along the coast of California as the system moves inland.

Thursday/Day 7 and Friday/Day 8

The West Coast mid-level trough is forecast to move quickly eastward across the Rockies on Thursday. Ahead of the system, isolated to scattered thunderstorms appear most likely Thursday afternoon and evening across parts of the southern and central Plains. A severe threat will be possible with this activity. Ahead of the mid-level trough, a severe threat may again develop over the Ozarks and mid Mississippi Valley on Friday. The severe threat on Thursday and Friday is expected to remain isolated, mainly due to relatively weak instability.
