Warming Up Finally….Why No Severe?
We will remain warm until our next storm system comes into the picture late Thursday night into Friday. Once again…..this looks like a system that will just be a rain maker with the potential for a few thunderstorms. No major severe weather is expected because of poor low level moisture.
This could really set the tone for our severe weather season. Current indications are that by mid April some severe activity could ramp up over the southeast, but we may have been saved from major outbreaks due to this. It will take a long period of low level flow out of the Caribbean to give us any good low level buoyancy for significant severe weather. However, as we move toward a more La Nina type pattern later this summer…..it could spell real trouble for us come hurricane season.
