FINALLY moving to the Southeast...Day 4 Meso Analysis with NUCAPS Huntsville



A Very different start today with ongoing convection already occurring as we start our forecast day.  Plenty of CAPE as per our NUCAPS sounding above.  High PW, NUCAPS (after slight adjustment) compares well to RAP sounding.
We anticipate these airmass thunderstorms to continue for the next couple of hours with a chance for severe storms as a cold front approaches from the NW this afternoon.
LAP data is working again today (YAY!) LAP CAPE has it's typical low bias, not a surprise given the high GFS component this morning.  LAP LI values also came in less unstable, but PWAT values are on par with other available information.
