SPC 1300Z Day 1 Outlook
Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0635 AM CST Tue Feb 03 2026 Valid 031300Z - 041200Z ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST... ...SUMMARY... Severe thunderstorms are not forecast through tonight across the contiguous United States. ...Northwest Gulf Coast into the Ark-La-Miss... The low-level airmass over this region is continuing to slowly modify after a previous arctic intrusion into the Gulf basin. Only limited diurnal destabilization (i.e., mainly 50s surface dewpoints yielding weak CAPE) is expected within a warm conveyor extending across the central Gulf Coast states eastward into the southern Appalachians. A mid-level trough will approach the region and aid in pushing a cold front southeast. Forecast soundings suggest weak, isolated thunderstorms are possible this afternoon over east TX and the Ark-La-Tex before shifting east-southeast across the lower MS Valley later this evening into tonight. ..Smith/Jewell.. 02/03/2026
