Decent LLJ of 30-40 kts should advect 15-17 C Tds northwards ahead of a cold front. Forcing and convergence along back edge of that LLJ and cold front, along with a wave tracking over far southern Manitoba may be enough trigger storms along the northern edge of the cap. Strong shear to work with as well. Activity would likely come thru between 10 PM and midnight..Danielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00949425441824069047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33386160.post-41418400892064709602011-08-24T17:18:21.904-05:002011-08-24T17:18:21.904-05:00Thanks for that reference. found some help by goin...Thanks for that reference. found some help by going west from <br />http://www.buoyweather.com/wxnav6.jsp?program=nww3BW1&grb=grl&region=LKS&latitude=50&longitude=-5.0&zone=-5&units=eAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33386160.post-86818968742171630432011-08-24T16:44:17.902-05:002011-08-24T16:44:17.902-05:00Anonymous..
