WHAT HAS CHANGED

A High Rip Current Risk has been issued for Thursday. The Slight Risk for severe thunderstorms on Thursday has been expanded to include the entire area.

KEY MESSAGES

1) Dangerous rip currents expected Thursday.

2) Severe thunderstorms are possible on Thursday.

3) Low pressure may produce locally heavy rain as well as thunderstorms around the beginning of next week.

KEY MESSAGE 3

The modeling suggests low pres developing east of the Rockies this weekend will track across the country and bring rain to the area sometime during the beginning of next week. Timing right now is as early as Sun ngt, and as late as Mon ngt. Signal is reflected in the NBM pops which are 60 percent even this far out.

Convection embedded in this sys will enhance rainfall rates, and the GFS already suggests over an inch in a swath along and north of the low track. Would expect some higher amounts than this due to the convective component. There may also be a severe risk in the warm sector, although it gets tricky once again locally with any onshore flow limiting instability.
