Very zonal flow for this upcoming potential event.

Broader more zonal flow can lead to your better event in the southeast sometimes though.

April 5th 2022 event was almost purely zonal with a shortwave through the base.

Still a ways out but I still have a lot of uncertainty about this weekend. Could produce a few warnings but at the moment I just don't see anything in the models to make me think this has significant potential. Its just too early to say for sure.

I've seen March play out like this before and it just seems like this is "The system before the system". I feel like this is just setting the stage for something much more substantial down stream in a week or 2.

We are entering one of the most unpredictable phases of the year.....the meteorological transition from Winter to Spring. Man has been trying to predict this shift since the beginning of time.

No one really has a clue what is going to happen over the next few weeks.

Haven't watched through the video yet but it looks like most of his analog years were abysmal if you like severe weather (2002, 2009, 2018). 2012 was pretty slow as well other than March 2. The only one that piques my interest is 1965 which of course had the Palm Sunday outbreak along with a lot of other activity here in the Midwest. Kind of the odd duck out there.

IIRC, his prediction is an above average start to tornado season (March/April), petering out in May, with a good chunk of the action being in traditional Tornado Alley and maybe the Ohio Valley/Great Lakes region. Sounds similar to the past few years, but with a bit more emphasis on the Plains and Midwest. If it has to tornado, it would be nice to have it tornado in the open plains, rather than the dense woods, swamps, and urban areas of the south. I'm sure the many Southerners on here would appreciate that as well.

It is interesting to me that most of the analogs had a recurring theme of an increase in action in the Midwest/Lower Great Lakes. I wonder if my area is gonna see an uptick in activity this Spring/Summer, considering I'm in one of Michigan's tornado hotspots (Genesee County).

Off the 12z HRRR run valid at 3pm Thursday. A upgrade to Slight Risk is possible from parts of Arkansas, North MS, and into parts of Northwest Alabama mainly for damaging winds/large hail.
