DAY 1 CONVECTIVE OUTLOOK
NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
0658 AM CST FRI FEB 25 2011

VALID 251300Z - 261200Z

...THERE IS A SLGT RISK OF SVR TSTMS THIS AFTERNOON OVER PORTIONS OF
THE MID ATLANTIC STATES...

...MID ATLANTIC STATES...

INTENSE FORCING FOR ASCENT /I.E. 500-MB HEIGHT FALLS OF 150-200 M
PER 12-HR/ WILL OVERSPREAD REGION TODAY IN ADVANCE OF WELL-DEFINED
VORTICITY MAXIMUM AND ASSOCIATED 80-100 KT MIDLEVEL JET STREAK NOW
OVER THE OH VALLEY. ATTENDANT SURFACE LOW ANALYZED OVER NRN WV AS
OF 12Z WILL CONCURRENTLY DEVELOP ENEWD THROUGH SRN/CNTRL PA THIS
MORNING TO OFF THE NJ COAST BY LATE AFTERNOON. TRAILING COLD FRONT
WILL ACCORDINGLY SURGE EWD THROUGH THE PIEDMONT AND COASTAL PLAIN
AND OFFSHORE BY EVENING.

A VERY STRONG SWLY LOW-LEVEL WIND FIELD /50-70 KT AT AROUND 1 KM
AGL/ HAS DEVELOPED E OF THE APPALACHIANS THIS MORNING WHICH HAS
HASTENED THE NWD TRANSPORT OF AN INCREASINGLY WARM AND MOIST AIR
MASS THROUGH THE CNTRL/ERN CAROLINAS INTO THE TIDEWATER
REGION...ALONG AND S OF RETREATING WARM/WEDGE FRONT. WARM CONVEYOR
BELT CLOUDS AND PRECIPITATION MANIFEST WITHIN THIS HIGH MOMENTUM AIR
STREAM ARE EXPECTED TO TEMPER DAYTIME HEATING AND RESULTANT AIR MASS
DESTABILIZATION AHEAD OF COLD FRONT THROUGH MOST OF THE MORNING.
HOWEVER...BY 17-19Z LATEST MODEL GUIDANCE SUGGESTS THAT A NARROW
CORRIDOR OF WEAK INSTABILITY /SBCAPE VALUES AROUND 500 J PER KG/
WILL DEVELOP AHEAD OF COLD FRONT AS IT SHIFTS E OF THE BLUE RIDGE.

25/00Z 4-KM ARW/NMM AND SEVERAL OF THE MORE RECENT EXPERIMENTAL HRRR
SIMULATED REFLECTIVITY FORECASTS SUGGEST THE DEVELOPMENT OF DISCRETE
STORMS ALONG THE COLD FRONT FROM PORTIONS OF SERN PA/NJ SWD THROUGH
PARTS OF ERN VA...CNTRL/ERN MD AND DE. GIVEN THE VERY STRONG SHEAR
EVIDENT IN 12Z OBSERVED AND MODEL FORECAST SOUNDINGS...THE POTENTIAL
WILL EXIST FOR LOW-TOPPED SUPERCELLS WITH A RISK FOR DAMAGING WIND
GUSTS AND PERHAPS A TORNADO OR TWO. THE COLD FRONT AND ANY
ASSOCIATED SEVERE WEATHER THREAT SHOULD MOVE OFFSHORE BY LATE
AFTERNOON OR THIS EVENING.

...TODAYS TOPIC FOR SEVERE WEATHER AWARENESS WEEK IS
FLASH FLOODS...

ARKANSAS GOVERNOR MIKE BEEBE HAS PROCLAIMED THE WEEK OF
FEBRUARY 21ST THROUGH 25TH AS SEVERE WEATHER AWARENESS WEEK
IN ARKANSAS.

A DIFFERENT TOPIC WILL BE DISCUSSED EACH DAY...AND TODAYS TOPIC
IS FLASH FLOODS.

IN THIS STATE...MOST OF THE MAJOR FLASH FLOODS OCCUR AT NIGHT...
WHEN THE DANGER IS MUCH MORE DIFFICULT TO SEE.

IN ARKANSAS IN 2010...FLASH FLOODS TOOK 22 LIVES. TWENTY OF THESE
WERE AT THE ALBERT PIKE RECREATION AREA ON JUNE 11TH.

FLASH FLOODING IS USUALLY CAUSED BY EITHER VERY SLOW-MOVING
THUNDERSTORMS...OR THUNDERSTORMS THAT REPEATEDLY MOVE ACROSS THE
SAME AREA.

THE MAJORITY OF FLASH FLOOD DEATHS OCCUR WHEN PEOPLE TRY TO DRIVE
OR WALK THROUGH FLOODED AREAS. SOME OF THE VEHICLE RELATED DEATHS
OCCUR WHEN VEHICLES ARE SWEPT AWAY WITH PEOPLE INSIDE. OTHERS
OCCUR WHEN VEHICLES STALL IN THE FLOODWATERS AND PEOPLE CLIMB
OUT...ONLY TO BE SWEPT AWAY BY THE FORCE OF THE WATER.

MOVING WATER TWO FEET DEEP IS SUFFICIENT TO CARRY AWAY MOST
VEHICLES...EVEN PICKUP TRUCKS AND SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES.

TO EMPHASIZE THE DANGERS OF DRIVING INTO FLOODED AREAS...THE
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE HAS DEVELOPED A SLOGAN...
TURN AROUND - DONT DROWN.

AND...DONT BE A VICTIM OF WHAT IS SOMETIMES CALLED GET-THERE-ITIS.
THIS EXPRESSION MEANS THAT THE CLOSER THAT PEOPLE GET TO HOME...
THE MORE LIKELY THEY ARE TO CONTINUE THE ATTEMPT...EVEN WHEN
DANGER PRESENTS ITSELF. IN RECENT YEARS...MOST OF THE FLASH
FLOOD FATALITIES IN ARKANSAS HAVE OCCURRED IN AREAS THAT THE
VICTIMS WERE FAMILIAR WITH...GENERALLY NOT FAR FROM THEIR HOMES.

...FLASH FLOOD SAFETY RULES...

YOU SHOULD KNOW WHICH PLACES IN YOUR AREA FLOOD QUICKLY IN HEAVY
RAINS...AND AVOID THESE PLACES WHEN DRIVING.

WHEN WATER COVERS THE ROAD...BRIDGE APPROACHES AND ROADBEDS
COULD BE WASHED OUT.

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CROSS FLOWING STREAMS.

OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES ARE VERY POPULAR IN ARKANSAS. IF YOU ENJOY
CAMPING OR SIMILAR RECREATION...BE ESPECIALLY CAREFUL IF YOU
SPEND THE NIGHT NEAR STREAMS. A THUNDERSTORM MILES UPSTREAM
FROM YOUR LOCATION COULD PRODUCE ENOUGH RAIN TO CAUSE FLOODING...
EVEN IF IT IS NOT RAINING MUCH WHERE YOU ARE.

IF YOUR VEHICLE STALLS IN THE WATER...DO NOT WAIT WHILE THE
WATER CONTINUES TO RISE. YOUR VEHICLE COULD BE SWEPT AWAY.
INSTEAD...AS SOON AS THE VEHICLE STALLS...LEAVE IT IMMEDIATELY
AND HEAD FOR HIGHER GROUND.

NEVER ALLOW CHILDREN TO PLAY AROUND HIGH WATER...STORM DRAINS...
AND CULVERTS.

PUBLIC INFORMATION STATEMENT

...TODAYS TOPIC FOR SEVERE WEATHER AWARENESS WEEK IS
LIGHTNING...

ARKANSAS GOVERNOR MIKE BEEBE HAS PROCLAIMED THE WEEK OF
FEBRUARY 21ST THROUGH 25TH AS SEVERE WEATHER AWARENESS WEEK
IN ARKANSAS.

A DIFFERENT TOPIC WILL BE DISCUSSED EACH DAY...AND TODAYS TOPIC
IS LIGHTNING.

LIGHTNING IS A HAZARD IN ALL THUNDERSTORMS...WHETHER THEY ARE
SEVERE OR NOT. WHILE THUNDER FRIGHTENS MANY PEOPLE...IT IS THE
LIGHTNING THAT CAUSES DEATHS...INJURIES...AND DAMAGE.
REMEMBER...IT IS THE LIGHTNING THAT PRODUCES THUNDER. THIS
HAPPENS DUE TO THE RAPID HEATING AND COOLING OF THE AIR NEAR THE
LIGHTNING. THE AIR NEAR A LIGHTNING STRIKE IS HEATED TO
50 THOUSAND DEGREES FAHRENHEIT...WHICH IS HOTTER THAN THE SURFACE
OF THE SUN. SO...WHENEVER THUNDER IS HEARD...DANGER IS PRESENT.

IN ARKANSAS IN 2010...LIGHTNING INJURED FOUR PEOPLE.

ON A NATIONWIDE BASIS...MOST LIGHTNING DEATHS AND INJURIES
TYPICALLY OCCUR WHEN PEOPLE ARE OUTDOORS.

LIGHTNING OFTEN STRIKES OUTSIDE OF HEAVY RAIN...AND MAY OCCUR AS
FAR AS 10 MILES OR MORE AWAY FROM ANY RAINFALL. BECAUSE OF THESE
LIGHTNING STRIKES AT A DISTANCE...MOST LIGHTNING DEATHS OCCUR
WHEN A THUNDERSTORM IS JUST MOVING IN...OR AS IT IS MOVING AWAY.

THE RUBBER SOLES OF SHOES WILL NOT PROTECT YOU FROM LIGHTNING...
NOR WILL THE RUBBER TIRES ON YOUR CAR. HOWEVER...THE STEEL FRAME
OF A HARD-TOP VEHICLE DOES PROVIDE A SAFETY-CAGE EFFECT THAT WILL
DIRECT THE LIGHTNING FROM THE VEHICLES FRAME INTO THE GROUND.
JUST KEEP THE WINDOWS ROLLED UP AND DO NOT TOUCH ANY METAL INSIDE
THE VEHICLE.

IF A PERSON IS STRUCK BY LIGHTNING...THAT PERSONS BODY WILL NOT
RETAIN ANY ELECTRICAL CHARGE. THUS...THE INJURED PERSON CAN AND
SHOULD BE CARED FOR IMMEDIATELY.

HEAT LIGHTNING...AS IT IS SOMETIMES CALLED...IS INDEED CAUSED
BY A THUNDERSTORM...NOT JUST HEAT. HEAT LIGHTNING IS ACTUALLY
JUST LIGHTNING VERY DISTANT FROM WHERE THE PERSON IS
SEEING IT...TOO FAR AWAY FOR THUNDER TO BE HEARD.

...SOME LIGHTNING SAFETY RULES...

REMEMBER...IF YOU CAN HEAR THUNDER...YOU ARE IN DANGER FROM
LIGHTNING. GO TO SHELTER IMMEDIATELY. YOU SHOULD MOVE TO A STURDY

PUBLIC INFORMATION STATEMENT
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LITTLE ROCK AR
200 PM CST THU FEB 24 2011

...TODAYS TOPIC FOR SEVERE WEATHER AWARENESS WEEK IS
LIGHTNING...

ARKANSAS GOVERNOR MIKE BEEBE HAS PROCLAIMED THE WEEK OF
FEBRUARY 21ST THROUGH 25TH AS SEVERE WEATHER AWARENESS WEEK
IN ARKANSAS.

A DIFFERENT TOPIC WILL BE DISCUSSED EACH DAY...AND TODAYS TOPIC
IS LIGHTNING.

LIGHTNING IS A HAZARD IN ALL THUNDERSTORMS...WHETHER THEY ARE
SEVERE OR NOT. WHILE THUNDER FRIGHTENS MANY PEOPLE...IT IS THE
LIGHTNING THAT CAUSES DEATHS...INJURIES...AND DAMAGE.
REMEMBER...IT IS THE LIGHTNING THAT PRODUCES THUNDER. THIS
HAPPENS DUE TO THE RAPID HEATING AND COOLING OF THE AIR NEAR THE
LIGHTNING. THE AIR NEAR A LIGHTNING STRIKE IS HEATED TO
50 THOUSAND DEGREES FAHRENHEIT...WHICH IS HOTTER THAN THE SURFACE
OF THE SUN. SO...WHENEVER THUNDER IS HEARD...DANGER IS PRESENT.

IN ARKANSAS IN 2010...LIGHTNING INJURED FOUR PEOPLE.

ON A NATIONWIDE BASIS...MOST LIGHTNING DEATHS AND INJURIES
TYPICALLY OCCUR WHEN PEOPLE ARE OUTDOORS.

LIGHTNING OFTEN STRIKES OUTSIDE OF HEAVY RAIN...AND MAY OCCUR AS
FAR AS 10 MILES OR MORE AWAY FROM ANY RAINFALL. BECAUSE OF THESE
LIGHTNING STRIKES AT A DISTANCE...MOST LIGHTNING DEATHS OCCUR
WHEN A THUNDERSTORM IS JUST MOVING IN...OR AS IT IS MOVING AWAY.

THE RUBBER SOLES OF SHOES WILL NOT PROTECT YOU FROM LIGHTNING...
NOR WILL THE RUBBER TIRES ON YOUR CAR. HOWEVER...THE STEEL FRAME
OF A HARD-TOP VEHICLE DOES PROVIDE A SAFETY-CAGE EFFECT THAT WILL
DIRECT THE LIGHTNING FROM THE VEHICLES FRAME INTO THE GROUND.
JUST KEEP THE WINDOWS ROLLED UP AND DO NOT TOUCH ANY METAL INSIDE
THE VEHICLE.

IF A PERSON IS STRUCK BY LIGHTNING...THAT PERSONS BODY WILL NOT
RETAIN ANY ELECTRICAL CHARGE. THUS...THE INJURED PERSON CAN AND
SHOULD BE CARED FOR IMMEDIATELY.

HEAT LIGHTNING...AS IT IS SOMETIMES CALLED...IS INDEED CAUSED
BY A THUNDERSTORM...NOT JUST HEAT. HEAT LIGHTNING IS ACTUALLY
JUST LIGHTNING VERY DISTANT FROM WHERE THE PERSON IS
SEEING IT...TOO FAR AWAY FOR THUNDER TO BE HEARD.

...SOME LIGHTNING SAFETY RULES...

REMEMBER...IF YOU CAN HEAR THUNDER...YOU ARE IN DANGER FROM
LIGHTNING. GO TO SHELTER IMMEDIATELY. YOU SHOULD MOVE TO A STURDY
BUILDING OR GET INSIDE A HARD-TOP CAR...KEEP THE WINDOWS ROLLED
UP...AND DO NOT TOUCH METAL INSIDE THE CAR.

DO NOT TAKE SHELTER IN SMALL SHEDS...UNDER ISOLATED TREES...OR IN
CONVERTIBLE CARS.

STAY AWAY FROM HIGHER ELEVATIONS...SUCH AS HILLTOPS. AVOID NEARBY

DAY 1 CONVECTIVE OUTLOOK
NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
1141 PM CST SAT FEB 26 2011

VALID 271200Z - 281200Z

...THERE IS A MDT RISK OF SVR TSTMS OVER SRN IL...EXTREME SWRN
IND...FAR W KY...WRN TN...SERN MO...CNTRL/NRN AR AND EXTREME ECNTRL
OK...

...THERE IS A SLGT RISK OF SVR TSTMS FROM THE SRN PLAINS TO THE
LOWER OH VALLEY/MIDWEST...

...SYNOPSIS...
POSITIVE-TILT MID-LEVEL TROUGH LOCATED OVER THE GREAT BASIN AND SWRN
STATES IS EXPECTED TO MIGRATE ENE TODAY AND TONIGHT AS UPSTREAM
IMPULSE DIGS OFF BRITISH COLUMBIA COAST. THE WEAKER NRN PORTION OF
THE TROUGH WILL EJECT FASTER...REACHING THE MID-MS VLY THIS EVENING
AND THE MIDWEST TONIGHT. SFC REFLECTION WILL DEVELOP ALONG A NWD
MOVING WARM FRONT FROM CNTRL MO TO NRN IND BY TONIGHT.

MEANWHILE...COLDER AND STRONGER SRN PARTS OF THE TROUGH... CURRENTLY
APPROACHING THE SRN CA COAST...WILL OPEN INTO A WAVE AND MOVE INTO
THE CNTRL/SRN PLAINS THIS EVENING/TONIGHT. WEAK CYCLOGENESIS WILL
OCCUR WITH THIS FEATURE OVER THE OZARKS AS A DRYLINE MIXES EWD INTO
ERN OK AND NE TX BY TONIGHT.

...SRN PLAINS TO THE MID-SOUTH/MIDWEST...
BI-MODAL SVR EVENT IS LIKELY LATER THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH THE
OVERNIGHT WITH DAMAGING WINDS...TORNADOES AND LARGE HAIL LIKELY OVER
A LARGE REGION.

FIRST CONCERN WILL REVOLVE AROUND THE AFOREMENTIONED WEAK LEAD
IMPULSE THAT WILL MOVE INTO THE MIDWEST BY TONIGHT. VERY STRONG
SWLY FLOW OF 65+ KTS WILL TRANSPORT SFC DEW POINTS OF 58+F NWD TO
SRN EDGE OF THE SNOWPACK...ROUGHLY ECNTRL MO TO SRN IND BY
MID-EVENING. MODEST LARGE-SCALE HEIGHT FALLS WILL CONTRIBUTE TO
MOISTENING/ASCENT OVER A LARGE REGION THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING
WITH MLCAPES 500-1000 J/KG FROM THE LOWER OH VLY AND MID-SOUTH.
PRIMARY QUESTION WILL BE IF THE WARM SECTOR CAP WILL WEAKEN ENOUGH
TO SUPPORT DEEP MOIST CONVECTION. THERE WILL CERTAINLY BE SUPPORT
FOR INCREASING BANDS OF ELEVATED TSTMS ALONG/N OF I-70...BUT CONCERN
IS FOR ANY DISCRETE AND/OR CLUSTERS OF MORE SFC-BASED STORMS IN THE
DEEPENING MOIST/MORE UNSTABLE AIR MASS ACROSS THE LWR OH
VLY/MID-SOUTH...PRIMARILY LATE AFTERNOON/EVENING. THESE STORMS WILL
BE EMBEDDED IN AN ENVIRONMENT CHARACTERIZED BY LARGE-CURVED
LOW-LEVEL HODOGRAPHS AND STRONG DEEP-LAYER SHEAR.
TORNADOES...DAMAGING WINDS WILL BE LIKELY WITH THESE STORMS
/PARTICULARLY IN NRN PORTIONS OF MDT RISK/...ALTHOUGH LARGE HAIL
WILL BE MORE LIKELY N OF THE WARM FRONT IN CNTRL PORTIONS OF IL/IND.
THIS ACTIVITY WILL DEVELOP/TRANSLATE ENE INTO THE MID-OH VALLEY/KY
COALFIELDS BY 12Z MONDAY WITH A LOWER SVR PROBABILITY WITH EWD
EXTENT.

MEANWHILE...A LATE NIGHT SURGE IN THE SEVERE THREAT WILL OCCUR
FARTHER SW AS SRN EXTENT OF THE EJECTING TROUGH ARRIVES LATE AT
NIGHT. EXPECT ANY REMAINING CAP TO WEAKEN WITH A GRADUAL INCREASE
IN STORMS ALONG/E OF THE DRYLINE/PRE-FRONTAL TROUGH FROM THE MO
OZARKS SWWD INTO ERN OK/NE TX AFTER 06Z. THESE STORMS WILL LIKELY
GROW QUICKLY UPSCALE INTO A QLCS BY 09Z WHILE ACCELERATING ENE
TOWARD THE LWR OH VLY/MID-SOUTH 09-12Z. GIVEN POSITIVE-TILT NATURE
TO THE TROUGH...DEEP-LAYER WIND FIELDS WILL BE COMPARATIVELY MORE
UNIDIRECTIONAL AND ORIENTED MORE PARALLEL TO THE INITIATING BOUNDARY
THAT THE ENVIRONMENT EARLIER IN THE NIGHT. AS SUCH...BOWING LINE
SEGMENTS WILL BE FAVORED WITH POSSIBLE SIGNIFICANT CORRIDORS OF WIND
EVOLVING. THERE IS ALSO A POSSIBILITY OF EMBEDDED
TORNADOES...ALTHOUGH FORECAST HODOGRAPHS SHOW A VEERING-BACKING
PATTERN WITH HEIGHT THAT MAY BE DETRIMENTAL IN STORM STRUCTURES
NORMALLY CONDUCIVE FOR SIGNIFICANT TORNADOES. NONETHELESS...GIVEN
NEARLY 100 KTS OF MID-LEVEL WINDS EJECTING NEWD AND FAVORABLE
BUOYANCY/ FORCING...STILL EXPECT A BUSY SEVERE WEATHER NIGHT AHEAD
ACROSS THE MID-SOUTH AND LWR OH VALLEY AND THE MDT RISK HAS BEEN
MAINTAINED.
