6/28/08 CHASE FORECAST



Well, it looks like a possible chase day around here today. The SPC has most of the area in a slight risk, and the NWS has severe wording for most of the panhandle. A cool front will be located in the southern panhandle, which will aid in storm development. Of course, this won't be a "big day" with tornadoes, but I'm off, so I will go out.

The best area today will be the southern/southeastern panhandle due to better instability which will be aided by daytime heating and better moisture. Who knows, maybe a storm can ride the front and produce something good. I'm thinking some possible large hail and damaging wind gusts with the stronger storms. Also, since the upper level winds will be weak, slow moving and training storms may produce some localized flooding potential.

Again, the tornado probability is very low, but sometimes Mother Nature throws a curve ball at us when we least expect it. We will see...
