SPC 0100Z Day 1 Outlook
Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0642 PM CST Sun Feb 01 2026 Valid 020100Z - 021200Z ...NO THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST... ...SUMMARY... Thunderstorm potential appears low through tonight. ...Synopsis... Cool, dry, and stable conditions are noted across the country this evening per 00z RAOBs. With a synoptic regime in place that is unfavorable for destabilization, thunderstorm potential appears minimal. One exception to this is along/west of the Cascades in the Pacific Northwest where occasional lightning flashes have been observed in recent hours. Regional 00z soundings did sample weak buoyancy, but this will quickly diminish in the coming hours with the onset of nocturnal cooling. As such, any additional lightning potential is expected to be short-lived and should wane rapidly through the late evening. ..Moore.. 02/02/2026
