Day 1 Convective Outlook

0614 AM CST Sat Jan 10 2026
Valid 101300Z - 111200Z
...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS THIS MORNING AND
EARLY AFTERNOON FROM CENTRAL LOUISIANA TO WESTERN GEORGIA...
...SUMMARY...
A few severe thunderstorms are forecast this morning and early
afternoon from LA/MS into AL/GA.
...LA/MS/AL/GA...
Strong and deep southwesterly flow is present today over much of the
southeast US, with a well-defined baroclinic zone extending from
central LA across parts of MS/AL into northern GA. Thunderstorms
have been intensifying in the past few hours across southeast MS,
where multiple supercell structures and a couple of confirmed
tornadoes have occurred. This activity is expected to persist for
several more hours, tracking across parts of central AL and
eventually into western GA. Low-level winds and shear have become
sufficiently strong to support risk of a strong tornado or two along
this corridor.
By early afternoon, storms will spread eastward into GA and upstate
SC, where very weak instability will limit the severe threat.

Day 2 Convective Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
1243 AM CST Sat Jan 10 2026
Valid 111200Z - 121200Z
...NO THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
Thunderstorms are not expected across the U.S. on Sunday or Sunday
night.
...DISCUSSION...
An upper-level trough over the mid Mississippi Valley will move to
the Atlantic Seaboard on Sunday, as northwesterly mid-level flow
becomes established over much of the central and eastern part of the
U.S. At the surface, an area of high pressure will remain over the
south-central and southeastern U.S. The pattern will keep a dry and
cool airmass in place over most of the continental U.S., making
thunderstorm development unlikely in the U.S. Sunday and Sunday
night.

Day 3 Convective Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0225 AM CST Sat Jan 10 2026
Valid 121200Z - 131200Z
...NO THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
Thunderstorms are not expected across the U.S. on Monday and Monday
night.
...DISCUSSION...
A large-scale upper-level trough will remain over the eastern U.S.
on Monday, as a mid-level shortwave trough moves southeastward into
the north-central states Monday night. At the surface, an area of
high pressure will remain anchored over the Gulf Coast states on
Monday, as a cool and dry airmass remains in place over much of the
continental U.S. For this reason, thunderstorms are not expected to
develop over the nation Monday or Monday night.
