SPC 1300Z Day 1 Outlook
Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0614 AM CST Sat Jan 10 2026 Valid 101300Z - 111200Z ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS THIS MORNING AND EARLY AFTERNOON FROM CENTRAL LOUISIANA TO WESTERN GEORGIA... ...SUMMARY... A few severe thunderstorms are forecast this morning and early afternoon from LA/MS into AL/GA. ...LA/MS/AL/GA... Strong and deep southwesterly flow is present today over much of the southeast US, with a well-defined baroclinic zone extending from central LA across parts of MS/AL into northern GA. Thunderstorms have been intensifying in the past few hours across southeast MS, where multiple supercell structures and a couple of confirmed tornadoes have occurred. This activity is expected to persist for several more hours, tracking across parts of central AL and eventually into western GA. Low-level winds and shear have become sufficiently strong to support risk of a strong tornado or two along this corridor. By early afternoon, storms will spread eastward into GA and upstate SC, where very weak instability will limit the severe threat. ..Hart/Kerr.. 01/10/2026
