CONCERNING...SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH LIKELY
VALID 160821Z - 161015Z
PROBABILITY OF WATCH ISSUANCE...80 PERCENT
SUMMARY...THE RISK OF DAMAGING WINDS WILL CONTINUE WITH AN
EASTWARD-ADVANCING SQUALL LINE. A DOWNSTREAM WATCH IS LIKELY.
DISCUSSION...A NORTH/SOUTH-ORIENTED QLCS IS TRACKING EASTWARD ACROSS
EASTERN KY, TN, AND NORTHERN GA AT AROUND 40 KT. WHILE
BOUNDARY-LAYER MOISTURE AND SURFACE-BASED BUOYANCY IS LIMITED AHEAD
OF THE LINE (ESPECIALLY WITH NORTHWARD EXTENT), VERY STRONG
DEEP-LAYER FLOW/SHEAR ORIENTED PARALLEL TO THE LEADING GUST FRONT
SHOULD CONTINUE TO SUPPORT THE MAINTENANCE OF THE QLCS WITH EASTWARD
EXTENT. GIVEN THE LINEAR MODE, DAMAGING WIND GUSTS WILL CONTINUE TO
BE THE PRIMARY CONCERN, THOUGH AN EMBEDDED MESOVORTEX TORNADO CANNOT
BE ENTIRELY RULED OUT -- GIVEN STRONG LOW-LEVEL SHEAR. A DOWNSTREAM
WATCH WILL LIKELY BE ISSUED SOON.

PROBABILITY OF WATCH ISSUANCE...60 PERCENT
SUMMARY...MONITORING ENVIRONMENTAL AND CONVECTIVE TRENDS FOR A
POSSIBLE DOWNSTREAM WATCH. THE PRIMARY CONCERN WOULD BE DAMAGING
WIND GUSTS.
DISCUSSION...THE LATEST MOSAIC RADAR DATA DEPICTS A
NORTHEAST/SOUTHWEST-ORIENTED QLCS ADVANCING EASTWARD ACROSS EASTERN
TN, FAR NORTHWEST GA, AND NORTHERN/CENTRAL AL -- WITH ADDITIONAL
ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS ATTEMPTING TO INTENSIFY AHEAD OF THE LINE IN
AL. THIS ACTIVITY CONTINUES TO POSE A RISK OF DAMAGING GUSTS AND A
COUPLE TORNADOES. DOWNSTREAM, THE PRE-CONVECTIVE ENVIRONMENT IS
CHARACTERIZED BY WEAK TO MODERATE SURFACE-BASED BUOYANCY (HIGHER
WITH SOUTHWARD EXTENT) AND AROUND 50 KT OF LINE-PARALLEL 0-6 KM
SHEAR (PER REGIONAL VWP). THIS, ALONG WITH A 40-50 KT LOW-LEVEL JET,
SHOULD CONTINUE TO SUPPORT THE MAINTENANCE OF THE QLCS WITH EASTWARD
EXTENT. DESPITE SOME UNCERTAINTY IN THE SEVERE RISK WITH EASTWARD
AND NORTHWARD EXTENT, THE POTENTIAL FOR DAMAGING GUSTS AND PERHAPS
AN EMBEDDED TORNADO OR TWO MAY CONTINUE, AND A NEW DOWNSTREAM WATCH
MAY BE NEEDED.

DAY 1 CONVECTIVE OUTLOOK
NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
1226 AM CDT MON MAR 16 2026
VALID 161200Z - 171200Z
...THERE IS A MODERATE RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON
ACROSS PARTS OF CENTRAL MARYLAND...MUCH OF CENTRAL AND EASTERN
VIRGINIA...CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA AND ADJACENT PORTIONS OF SOUTH
CAROLINA...
...SUMMARY...
FAST MOVING THUNDERSTORMS MAY BECOME WIDESPREAD AND ACCOMPANIED BY
THE RISK FOR DAMAGING WIND GUSTS AND A FEW TORNADOES ACROSS THE MID
ATLANTIC TODAY. THERE IS POTENTIAL THAT A COUPLE OF STORMS COULD
BECOME CAPABLE OF PRODUCING STRONG AND LONG TRACK TORNADOES.
...DISCUSSION...
MODELS INDICATE THAT LARGE-SCALE MID-LEVEL RIDGING WILL MAINTAIN
AMPLITUDE ACROSS THE PACIFIC COAST THROUGH THE CANADIAN PRAIRIES AND
U.S. ROCKIES INTO EARLY TUESDAY AND BEYOND. AT THE SAME TIME, IT
APPEARS THAT DOWNSTREAM RIDGING WILL UNDERGO FURTHER AMPLIFICATION
JUST EAST OF THE ATLANTIC SEABOARD, WITH ONLY VERY SLOW EASTWARD
PROGRESSION OF LARGE-SCALE TROUGHING IN BETWEEN, ACROSS THE
MISSISSIPPI VALLEY INTO THE ATLANTIC SEABOARD.
IT DOES APPEAR THAT ONE SIGNIFICANT SHORT WAVE PERTURBATION WILL
GRADUALLY PIVOT THROUGH THE BASE OF THE TROUGHING, TOWARD THE
CUMBERLAND PLATEAU DURING THE DAY TODAY, BEFORE RAPIDLY ACCELERATING
NORTHWARD NEAR THE APPALACHIANS TOWARD SOUTHWESTERN QUEBEC THIS
EVENING THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. MODELS SUGGEST THAT THIS WILL
EVENTUALLY PROVIDE SUPPORT FOR A RAPIDLY DEEPENING SECONDARY SURFACE
CYCLONE ACROSS QUEBEC, DOWNSTREAM OF AN OCCLUDING AND WEAKENING
CYCLONE ACROSS THE LOWER GREAT LAKES VICINITY.
SURFACE TROUGHING AHEAD OF THE TRAILING COLD FRONT IS ALSO FORECAST
TO UNDERGO NOTABLE DEEPENING TO THE EAST OF THE ALLEGHENY FRONT AND
BLUE RIDGE TODAY, AND IT APPEARS THAT A RATHER SHARP SURFACE
PRESSURE FALL/RISE COUPLET WILL DEVELOP AND OVERSPREAD THE NORTHERN
MID ATLANTIC COAST LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING WITH THE PASSAGE
OF THE TROUGH AND TRAILING COLD FRONT. THE COLD FRONT MAY CLEAR ALL
THE ATLANTIC SEABOARD, BUT PERHAPS PORTIONS OF SOUTHERN FLORIDA AND
THE KEYS, BY 12Z TUESDAY.
...ATLANTIC SEABOARD...
LOW-LEVEL MOISTURE RETURN IS UNDERWAY ACROSS THE SOUTHERN INTO
MIDDLE ATLANTIC SEABOARD. BY EARLY THIS AFTERNOON, IT APPEARS THAT
60+ F SURFACE DEW POINTS WILL ADVECT AS FAR NORTH AS THE HIGHER
TERRAIN OF CENTRAL THROUGH NORTHEASTERN PENNSYLVANIA, WITH DEW
POINTS PERHAPS AS HIGH AS THE LOWER/MID 60S F ACROSS EASTERN NORTH
CAROLINA AND VIRGINIA. IN ADVANCE OF A PRE-FRONTAL SQUALL LINE,
WHICH MAY BE ONGOING AND BEGINNING TO SPREAD TO THE LEE OF THE
SOUTHERN APPALACHIANS THROUGH THE EASTERN GULF COAST STATES AT THE
OUTSET OF THE PERIOD, IT APPEARS THAT DESTABILIZATION AND
LARGE-SCALE ASCENT MAY SUPPORT SCATTERED NEW THUNDERSTORM
DEVELOPMENT FAIRLY EARLY IN THE DAY. THE EXTENT TO WHICH THIS MAY
IMPACT FURTHER DESTABILIZATION THROUGH LATE AFTERNOON REMAINS
UNCLEAR.
DESTABILIZATION MAY ALSO BE IMPACTED BY RELATIVELY WARM AIR/WEAK
LAPSE RATES IN MID/UPPER-LEVELS, AS MODELS SUGGEST THAT COLD AIR
ALOFT WILL TEND TO LAG TO THE WEST OF THE SURFACE COLD FRONT. EVEN
SO, FORECAST SOUNDINGS SUGGEST THAT, WITH BREAKS IN THE OVERCAST, AT
LEAST WEAK BOUNDARY-LAYER CAPE ON THE ORDER OF 500-1000 J/KG IS
POSSIBLE IN THE WARM SECTOR ACROSS THE MID ATLANTIC.
IN THE PRESENCE OF VERY STRONG SOUTHWESTERLY DEEP-LAYER MEAN FLOW ON
THE ORDER OF 50-60+ KT AND STRONG TO EXTREME LOW-LEVEL SHEAR,
INCLUDING AT LEAST MODEST CLOCKWISE CURVATURE, THE ENVIRONMENT
APPEARS POTENTIALLY CONDUCIVE TO THE EVOLUTION FAST MOVING
SUPERCELLS WITH POTENTIAL TO PRODUCE STRONG TORNADOES. BARRING MUCH
INTERFERENCE FROM OTHER STORMS, WHICH REMAINS UNCERTAIN AT THIS
TIME, AT LEAST A COUPLE OF THESE COULD BECOME LONG TRACK, GIVEN THE
STORM MOTIONS.
OTHERWISE, TRAILING THIS ACTIVITY, THE LEE SURFACE TROUGH/COLD FRONT
MIGHT BECOME A FOCUS FOR A DEVELOPING LINE OF STORMS CAPABLE OF
PROMOTING THE DOWNWARD TRANSFER OF MOMENTUM WITH POTENTIAL TO
PRODUCE WIDESPREAD DAMAGING WIND GUSTS.
FARTHER SOUTH, IT APPEARS THAT THE INITIAL SQUALL LINE MAY BE
MAINTAINED OR RE-INTENSIFY, WITH A CONTINUING RISK FOR STRONG TO
SEVERE WIND GUSTS AND POTENTIAL FOR TORNADOES INTO AND ACROSS THE
SOUTHERN ATLANTIC COAST.

NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
1243 AM CDT MON MAR 16 2026
VALID 171200Z - 181200Z
...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL APPEARS NEGLIGIBLE ON TUESDAY.
...SYNOPSIS...
ON TUESDAY, A LARGE UPPER TROUGH WILL RAPIDLY EJECT ACROSS THE
NORTHEASTERN STATES, WITH A COLD FRONT OVER THE WESTERN ATLANTIC AND
TRAILING SOUTHWESTWARD ACROSS FAR SOUTHERN FL/STRAITS AT 12Z
TUESDAY. DRY AIR BEHIND THIS FRONT SHOULD CONTINUE TO SHUNT MOISTURE
OFF THE FL PENINSULA, ALTHOUGH AN ELEVATED BAND OF WEAK INSTABILITY
MAY REMAIN ATOP THE COOLER AIR MASS. OVERALL, THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL
WILL BE EXTREMELY LIMITED FOR SOUTHERN FLORIDA, BUT A FEW SHOWERS
AND ISOLATED LIGHTNING FLASHES CANNOT BE RULED OUT.
ELSEWHERE AROUND THE CONUS, COOL AND/OR STABLE CONDITIONS WILL
PREVAIL, WITH HIGH PRESSURE AT THE SURFACE.

VALID 181200Z - 191200Z
...NO THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
THUNDERSTORMS ARE NOT FORECAST FOR WEDNESDAY.
...SYNOPSIS...
ON WEDNESDAY, AN UPPER RIDGE WILL BUILD OVER THE SOUTHWEST, WITH A
LARGE-SCALE TROUGH ACROSS OVER THE EAST. HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE
SOUTHEAST WILL MAINTAIN STABLE CONDITIONS, WITH GENERALLY OFFSHORE
WINDS ACROSS THE GULF. MINIMAL INSTABILITY MAY BE PRESENT FROM THE
BAHAMAS INTO THE FL STRAITS NEAR A STALLED FRONT, WITH CONVECTIVE
SHOWERS MAINLY OFFSHORE. OTHERWISE, LACK OF INSTABILITY WILL
PRECLUDE THUNDERSTORMS CHANCES ACROSS THE CONUS.

NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
0146 AM CDT MON MAR 16 2026
VALID 191200Z - 241200Z
...DISCUSSION...
A NORTHWEST FLOW REGIME WILL PERSIST ACROSS THE PLAINS THROUGH
SATURDAY/D6 AS AN UPPER HIGH HOLDS OVER THE SOUTHWESTERN STATES. THE
RIDGE IS EXPECTED TO BREAK DOWN LATE D6 THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE
PERIOD INTO MONDAY/D8, AS A STRONG WAVE MOVES SOUTHEASTWARD INTO THE
GREAT LAKES, AND A WEAKER WAVE POTENTIALLY MOVES INTO THE GREAT
BASIN/FOUR CORNERS STATES ON SUNDAY/D7. THIS OVERALL PATTERN WILL
MAINTAIN RELATIVELY STABLE CONDITIONS OVER MOST OF THE CONUS, WITH
HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE SOUTHEASTERN STATES INCLUDING THE GULF OF
AMERICA. FURTHER, AS THE STRONGER WAVE POTENTIALLY MOVES ACROSS THE
GREAT LAKES AND INTO THE NORTHEAST, A REINFORCING COLD FRONT IS
LIKELY TO PLUNGE SOUTH OVER MUCH OF THE CENTRAL AND EASTERN STATES
INTO THE D7/D8 TIME FRAME. WHILE LIMITED MOISTURE MAY PRECEDE THIS
COLD FRONT, OVERALL POTENTIAL FOR DESTABILIZATION APPEARS TO BE
MINIMAL.

0147 AM CDT MON MAR 16 2026
VALID 161200Z - 171200Z
...CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER AREA FOR MIDDLE AND LOWER TEXAS COAST...
...SYNOPSIS...
DRY, POST FRONTAL NORTHERLY FLOW WILL OVERSPREAD THE SOUTHERN PLAINS
THIS AFTERNOON BRINGING A PERIOD OF ELEVATED TO CRITICAL FIRE
WEATHER CONCERNS ACROSS EASTERN NEW MEXICO/FAR WEST TEXAS AND FROM
CENTRAL OKLAHOMA TO THE MIDDLE AND LOWER TEXAS COAST.
...NEW MEXICO AND FAR WEST TEXAS...
DRY SOUTHEASTERLY RETURN FLOW AROUND 15-20 MPH WILL OVERLAP RELATIVE
HUMIDITY REDUCTIONS TO 15-20 PERCENT ACROSS PORTIONS OF EASTERN NEW
MEXICO INTO FAR WESTERN TEXAS THIS AFTERNOON. FUELS WITHIN THIS
REGION REMAIN CRITICALLY DRY AND MULTIPLE DAYS OF WINDY/DRY
CONDITIONS AND WILL SUPPORT MAINTAINING AN ELEVATED AREA.
...SOUTH CENTRAL OKLAHOMA TO THE LOWER TEXAS COAST...
AS THE COLD FRONT SHIFTS OFFSHORE, DRY NORTHERLY FLOW WILL
OVERSPREAD AN AREA FROM SOUTH-CENTRAL OKLAHOMA DOWN TO THE
MIDDLE/LOWER TEXAS COAST. THE DRIEST CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED ACROSS
THE LOWER TEXAS COAST, WHERE A CRITICAL WAS MAINTAINED WITH THIS
OUTLOOK. RELATIVE HUMIDITY AROUND 10-15% WILL OVERLAP NORTH TO
NORTHEAST WINDS 15-20 MPH ACROSS THIS REGION. THIS IN ADDITION TO
DRY FUELS WILL SUPPORT INCREASED FIRE SPREAD POTENTIAL. CONFIDENCE
HAS INCREASE THAT ELEVATED CONDITIONS WILL EXTEND ACROSS THE MIDDLE
TEXAS COAST AND NORTH INTO SOUTH-CENTRAL OKLAHOMA, WHICH WAS ADDED
WITH THIS OUTLOOK AS SEVERAL NEW FIRES EMERGED ACROSS THIS REGION ON
SUNDAY.

VALID 171200Z - 181200Z
...SYNOPSIS...
A PERIOD OF ELEVATED FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS WILL RETURN ON D2/TUESDAY
ACROSS THE SOUTHERN PLAINS. WESTERLY FLOW ALOFT WILL OVERSPREAD THE
NORTHERN/CENTRAL ROCKIES, WITH LEE TROUGHING STRENGTHENING ACROSS
THE NORTHERN/CENTRAL HIGH PLAINS. STRENGTHENING SOUTHWEST WINDS WILL
EXTEND INTO THE SOUTHERN PLAINS WHERE A RESIDUAL DRY AIR MASS WILL
PROMOTE AN INCREASING FIRE WEATHER THREAT FOR SOUTHEASTERN NM, WEST
TX AND WESTERN OK. AFTERNOON RELATIVE HUMIDITY REDUCTIONS TO 15-20%
WILL OVERLAP SUSTAINED SOUTH SOUTHWESTERLY WINDS 10-15 MPH. A
CORRIDOR OF NEAR CRITICAL TO CRITICAL CONDITIONS MAY BE POSSIBLE
WITHIN THIS BROADER ELEVATED. FOR NOW, CONFIDENCE IN COVERAGE OF
CRITICAL WINDS IS TOO LOW TO INCLUDE AN AREA AT THIS TIME, GIVEN LOW
COMBINED PROBABILITIES FROM ENSEMBLE GUIDANCE FROM THE HREF.
