SPC 1200Z Day 1 Outlook
Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1125 PM CST Fri Jan 30 2026 Valid 311200Z - 011200Z ...NO THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST... ...SUMMARY... Thunderstorms are not forecast across the U.S. today through tonight. ...Synopsis... Long-wave troughing will persist across the eastern CONUS as an embedded shortwave trough steadily intensifies off the East Coast. Isolated to scattered thunderstorms are likely off the GA/Carolina coast as an attendant surface cyclone intensifies; however, the warm sector of the low will remain well offshore, precluding the potential for thunderstorms over land. Elsewhere, seasonally cool conditions across the central CONUS and upper ridging over the West will further nullify thunderstorm development. ..Moore/Wendt.. 01/31/2026
