Severe Weather 2025

Well hello there...

HUGE jump from past runs so this could (and probably is) an outlier run, but interesting nonetheless. If this becomes a trend then it could become concerning but as of now there is only one GFS run showing this. While there has been a slight uptick in past GFS runs (12z-18z Yesterday), the 00z from this morning showed a much less concerning scenario and this is a massive jump from even the 18z yesterday.

I wouldn't be too concerned but I would keep an eye on trends, and if they continue in this direction then start paying attention.
 
It would not surprise me to see a Enhanced upgrade. You definitely have the near 20 degree temp drop (87 to 69) from Saturday to Sunday and Southerly wind component Saturday which means moisture will not be hindered at all.
 
I think this'll be a good ole gully washer, any substantial tornado risk will be short and mainly confined to anything semi discreet before congealment. Just a usual spin up QLCS tornado threat from that point on. And some brisk temperatures afterwords. Damaging wind threat will be the biggest issue from this event.
 
Given the disagreement, i can't judge the 5% placement that much but i personally think our genuine tor threat lies in Dixie. As you go into that 1am-4am period Sine in S MS and SW AL, a weakish QLCS with enough instability and shear may promote a couple brief spinups. based on what I've seen, this area does have better agreement for a tor threat. I personally do think the damaging wind threat will last a bit long but then shift to potentially tornadic throughout the night. There is the possibility the line remains elevated and wind remains the main threat but a few brief spinups are not out of the question with latest guidance. This has been a tough forecast but think this might be where I stick with it haha

We might have some prefrontals. Favorable storm motion, southerly flow, and an okay environment as of now might allow them to cause problems in the future if they can mature before the line swallows them up.
