Severe Weather 2025

12z GFS Takeaways:
1. Surface Based Cape is not as impressive as yesterday's 18z run, but that's to be expected.
2. How low can you go? 12z GFS now has a 968mbar low over Kansas by Friday.
3. 500mb level looks very potent by next Friday.
4. 12z depicting 120kt bulk shear value over Northeast MS by Sunday. By far the highest bulk shear I've seen in these parts in a while.

Summary:
Tight pressure gradient leading to Wind Advisories/High Wind Watches/Warnings over a widespread area. Just like with the most recent system. Multiple rounds of storms leading to flash flooding and severe weather/tornado outbreak.

I don't like the fact there will high gradient winds like last time that led to multiple power outages. Power outages plus tornado outbreak...yeah, sick feeling is back.

Yeah, cape values aside and it’s only one model run… but seeing potential surface based instability all the way up into northern Iowa and as far east as Central Indiana Friday afternoon is pretty interesting. Could be a sneaky setup up there, especially around the triple point.

And you have the 500 MB jet start to overspread directly over that area.

Exactly! Plus communicating that plus damaging winds associated with the severe storms is quite a challenge
 
CSU is now thoroughly picking up on this threat. CIPS putting out some impressively widespread severe analog probabilities. Verbatim, 12Z GFS would be a multi-day severe weather event.
