May 6 Severe Weather Threat

It has been a long night of continuous work on school final projects, so not to much time to type things out. Not to mentioned I've typed of 10 pages of work already so the fingers are just kind of gliding across keys in hopes of hitting the right ones...

Severe weather threat for tomorrow looks to mainly be confined to tomorrow nights' MCS event that will roll through ahead of the cold front. A few thunderstorms may form tomorrow afternoon as convective temperatures are reached and the airmass becomes unstable on its' own. However, at this time the thunderstorms will likely be pulse-type in nature with little shear to keep them alive. Maybe a marginally severe hail or wind threat during the afternoon, but the action will likely be in the form of a squall line of some sort overnight on Tuesday into Wednesday.

I will post an update tomorrow morning on the threat for the day, along with what the SPC thinks on the day with their latest outlook. Look for that tomorrow, otherwise enjoy the sunny skies and temperatures in the upper 70s to upper 80s for Tuesday!
