   Day 1 Convective Outlook  
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   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.
