    Areas affected...southern Wisconsin/northern Illinois

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 30...

    Valid 060432Z - 060600Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 30
    continues.

    SUMMARY...Risk for damaging winds, and a brief tornado, continues
    across WW 30.

    DISCUSSION...Latest radar loop shows a semi-continuous line of
    thunderstorms moving east-northeastward at around 50kt across
    southern Wisconsin and northern Illinois. The storms remain west of
    the Milwaukee and Chicago metro areas, but will affect these areas
    within the next hour. While instability continues to gradually
    diminish, now at or below 500 J/kg mixed-layer CAPE, very strong
    southwesterly flow aloft -- in excess of 60 kt at 1 km and
    increasing to 80 kt at mid levels -- will support continued risk for
    damaging winds. Observation sites over northern Illinois have
    reported gusts in the 55 to 70 kt range in the past half hour, and
    expect severe-caliber gusts to affect the Milwaukee area soon, and
    portions of the Chicago suburbs shortly thereafter.

    Areas affected...northern California

    Concerning...Heavy snow=20

    Valid 271017Z - 271515Z

    SUMMARY...A band of moderate to heavy precipitation is expected to
    continue to develop and spread inland across the Klamath Mountains
    and northern Coastal Ranges, perhaps portions of the northern Sierra
    Nevada, with snow rates of 1-2+ inches per hour by 5-10 AM PST, if
    not a bit earlier.

    DISCUSSION...As another cold mid-level trough (including 500 mb
    temps near or below -35 C) digs into the northern Pacific coast,
    forcing for ascent along a frontal zone associated with an occluded
    offshore cyclone has recently supported intensifying convective
    development with embedded thunderstorms approaching the southern Oregon/northern California coast. Although it is not clear if
    destabilization aided by cooling aloft will maintain thunderstorm
    development, the remnant band of convection is forecast to gradually
    spread inland of coastal areas, across the Klamath Mountains and
    northern Coastal Ranges, perhaps portions of the northern Sierra
    Nevada, by the 13-17Z time frame, if not before.

    Coincident with this band of convection, forecast soundings indicate
    lift becoming maximized in the cold mid-level layers (around -15 C)
    most conducive to dendritic ice crystal growth. Coupled with
    orographic forcing aided by modest (30-40 kt) south-southwesterly
    upslope flow, heavy snow rates on the order of 1-2+ inches per hour
    appear likely for at least a few hours this morning, with snow
    levels perhaps falling below 2000 feet.

    Areas affected...Southern High Plains

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 31...

    Valid 080303Z - 080400Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 31
    continues.

    SUMMARY...Scattered convection will linger across mainly the
    northern/central portions of ww31 this evening.

    DISCUSSION...Surface front is gradually advancing south across the
    southern High Plains this evening but convection has not developed
    along this boundary to any degree across northwest OK. Most robust
    convection has gradually weakened, partially due to weaker buoyancy
    due to onset of nocturnal cooling. Additionally, 1km AGL flow has
    gradually veered and this is not particularly advantageous given the
    decreasing instability. 00z sounding from OKC exhibited steep lapse
    rates, but PW values are seasonally low around 3/4". With
    boundary-layer decoupling it may become increasingly difficult to
    maintain organized severe updrafts. While an isolated hail report
    can not be ruled out, overall trends suggest severe threat will
    remain marginal from this point forward.
