Forecaster: PUCIK

A level 3 was issued across Slovenia, N Croatia, S Hungary and W Romania mainly for damaging wind gusts, very large hail and to the lesser extent for tornadoes.

A level 2 was issued across N Italy mainly for very large hail, severe wind gusts and tornadoes. A strong tornado threat will be present along the Apennines!

*** Severe weather outbreak continues with the threat shifting further east during the day! ***



DISCUSSION

... Slovenia, N Croatia, S Hungary, NW Romania ...

A band of intense storms has entered Slovenia from N Italy. The environment ahead is characterized by >1500 J/kg of MUCAPE combined with very strong effective shear. The storms will pose a risk of very large hail. Severe wind gusts are likely despite the fact that storms may be elevated at first. As the storms move E, daytime heating over Hungary may allow for the storms to become surface based. A development of bow echo is possible given 20+ m/s of 0-3 km shear. Extremely severe wind gusts threat will thus increase towards the later hours as the system moves towards Romania. Some forecast hodographs also show around 10 m/s of 0-1 km shear and large amounts of streamwise vorticity in the inflow to the storms. This threat will be conditional upon the convective mode and whether the surface heating will allow the cloud bases to become higher.

... N Italy ...

While the main line of storms has passed towards E, high-res models still indicate a development of more isolated storms, supercells, especially along the Apennines. Will maintain a Lvl 2. Shear profiles will remain extremely conducive for supercells capable of all hazards, but increasing dryness in mid-troposphere may inhibit the activity later on. A tornado risk will be present especially along the W flank of the Apennines, where models show 10+ m/s of 0-1 km bulk shear and 150 m2/s2 of 0-500 m SRH. If an isolated supercell moves across the region, a strong tornado risk can be expected in such an environment.


... S Germany, Alps, SW Czechia ...

Ahead of the approaching short-wave trough, along the front, scattered to widespread storms are forecast to form, in the environment of MLCAPE up to 1000 J/kg and 0-6 km shear of around 15 m/s. Expect risks of large hail and isolated severe wind gusts from stronger storms, couple of which could be supercells.

zieht schon so lang ostwärts und ist noch immer so "schön" geformt...
