Day 4-8 Outlook
Day 4-8 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0350 AM CST Tue Jan 27 2026 Valid 301200Z - 041200Z ...DISCUSSION... Severe weather potential in the extended forecast period is very low. Broad-scale eastern US troughing will strengthen this weekend as a clipper-style trough dives out of Canada an rapidly intensifies along the Eastern Seaboard. A surface low will develop over the eastern Gulf and rapidly deepen over the western Atlantic into early next week. Western US ridging and strong surface high pressure over the central US will keep substantial inland moisture return unlikely for the foreseeable future.
