10AM Day 2 Convective Outlook for Saturday, January 31. NO THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST
SUMMARY
Thunderstorms are not forecast across the U.S. tomorrow (Saturday).
Synopsis
A pronounced upper trough will amplify along the East Coast as a second upper trough impinges on the Pacific Northwest tomorrow (Saturday). The amplification of the East Coast trough will reinforce surface high pressure and an associated polar airmass across most of the CONUS, limiting thunderstorm potential. Strong surface cyclogenesis is anticipated off of the Carolina Coastline, which may promote the development of thunderstorms. However, these storms should remain far enough east of the coastal waters to warrant the withholding of thunderstorm probabilities this outlook.
