The forecast models have been consistent in predicting a major upper trough to move into the western U.S. early next week. As a result, moisture will be advected rapidly northward from the Gulf of Mexico, with dewpoints in the 60s forecast as far north as KS by Tuesday. Impressive low-level shear will be in place across the central and southern Plains, with a 50 knot low-level jet persisting through the day on Tuesday. A strong dryline will propagate across NE, KS, OK, and TX, with supercells likely in the warm sector. Displayed below are the forecast 850 mb flow, 500 mb flow, and mslp, respectively, from the 12z GFS for Tuesday afternoon If the models verify, we will definitely be chasing. Stay tuned for more updates throughout the weekend.

Reed,
Be careful out there! Your DVD was truly amazing....I wish I had that king of action here in Ohio....I have only 2-3 days a year of chasing possibility. I definately need to come to Oklahoma soon!
