Severe Weather 2023

A very uncertain weather setup the later half of next week is what I’ve seen modeled. The 12z/18z runs of the GFS are new to this idea of a possible severe threat over the weekend. There have been wild swings on the GFS/EURO. The UM and GEM hold better two day consistency with a northwest flow still over the eastern US next weekend.
 
I mean basically.

The MJO report seems to signal for severe weather to return in the extended. The ensemble lines project movement into Phase 8 (Figure A). In addition, the forecast (unfilled contours) on the reconstruction chart (Figure B) shows similarities to the periods that led to the large/significant tornado episodes on Nov 4th last year and Jan 12th this year.

SPC hinting at increased risk for strong to severe storm potential mid/late next week. Y'all know the drill by now as well as the areas that will be at risk. LOL!

Fantasy range of course, but 06Z GFS would be another threat for Gulf Coastal regions on the 19th of March. Again, fantasy range, but the implication is annoying - that these threats still can't get north of about I-20 even as we approach the equinox. Remember, last year we had the Winterset, IA EF4 on March 5th.
 
I would expect a Marginal to Slight Risk at the very least going into Wednesday thru Friday timeframe (8th to 10th) across portions of the Mid-South region. Nothing stands out for a significant outbreak, but then again, these things have tended to escalate closer in.

You can thank the negative nao for that

A lot of cold air in the forecast.
