Severe 3/3-6 2025 Severe

Wilmington is saying we could gust 40-50 outside of the showers Wednesday before the storms even arrive. Quite the LLJ overhead.

A dynamic low level jet with wind
speeds up to 60 knots below 2k ft AGL will have little
resistance mixing to the surface in stronger embedded showers.
Gusts up in excess of 40 or 50 mph could be possible outside of
showers on Wednesday morning.
 
This looks so close to a carbon copy of the last system. The dynamics with this system are super impressive. If we had sufficient instability over a broad area tomorrow would be a completely different story. With that said we all saw what happened a couple weeks ago. It won't take much instability tomorrow/tomorrow night to cause issues with damaging winds.
 
Really hoping this trends better so I can chase the afternoon (I have a physical meteorology exam at 9 am on Wednesday). Need it to trend slower for better afternoon destabilization.

Things have sped up from a couple days ago. It's a good thing instability is meager, because this would be a major severe outbreak otherwise.
 
Pretty much unanimous agreement of widespread 40-50mph wind gusts with possibly 60+. Another thing that I believe could make this more impactful- we’re looking at several hours of high winds versus your typical squall line where high winds last 10 minutes.

Quick check of NWS forecasts and man they seem to really be lowballing the potential winds. FFC and BMX saying max gusts to 35-40mph whereas models are well into the 50’s and low 60’s. I know the models are likely overdone some but sheesh feels like some High Wind Warnings might be necessary in spots.
