Severe New Year's Week Severe Threat(s)

What I'm wondering is does the initial line and ofb push out and slow and it becomes more of a catalyst for training heavy rain across Al/GA with occasional spin ups versus a lot of discrete convection

Thinking Mississippi sees some rogue tornado possibilities. Straight line winds into Alabama is their biggest threat. I trust you guys analysis though. Light years beyond my comprehension of weather which is why I visit everyday.

It's really a messy situation once you get east of MS. That initial round late tomorrow intoTuesday looks legit in the area outlined by spc but after that it really throws a monkey wrench downstream into al/GA.

I have been noticing that the Euro has been fairly consistent on showing a mass of storms along the gulf coast on Tuesday which would likely rob areas further north of energy. Although I haven’t seen much support of that from other models up to this point (pending 00z runs). I wouldn’t rule it out though.
 
It looks like a wind threat here in the Carolinas. Looks like a QLCS forms with a few severe gusts possible. Maybe 1 or 2 weak tornados too.

I’m not quite sure that this statement is true. I don’t post much anymore but I do keep up with what’s going on. Just take a look at past severe weather events in areas other than Nc and Sc and who was the most involved. It might not always pan out but the guy loved severe weather. Shame on all of you for belittling him because you might not agree. This was and should be an open forum to ask questions, be opinionated and create dialogue. Not to be ridiculed. I’ve said my peace and will go back quite now. As an old member used to say…Carry on…

This one is just frustrating tbh since it's not a single wave pushing through and that leaves a ton of question marks

Models can under play the gulf coastal robberies, as former Georgia guys we know how this plays out 9/10 times.
 
The 18z Euro has a lot of gulf coast convection at 18z Tuesday. Also not nearly as much precip as earlier models had.
 
Decent 100m SRH

I'm still on the fence with this one. Short range models are all over the place. Even tomorrow has questions with what could be a very messy storm mode. My gut tells me this will probably be your run of the mill cold season threat. I'm interested in seeing how the details work themselves out over the next 24 hours. The ingredients are there but will they all mix together perfectly remains to be seen.
 
From Bham NOAA: forecast discussion

Monday night through next Saturday)
Issued at 1235 PM CST SUN JAN 1 2023

A complicated forecast scenario to kick off the extended period.
Synoptic guidance is somewhat in agreement deepening a surface low
across the Central Plains on Monday. The attendant upper low will
lift northeast toward the Midwest/western Great Lakes on Tuesday.
The surface low begins to fill with time with the attendant
occluded front approaching the region Tuesday night/early
Wednesday.

As the previous forecast discussions have already mentioned, some
competing factors at play here in terms of precipitation
potential and certainly convection - intensity of convection. We
are getting into the window of the CAMs now and they`re really
struggling with initiating/sustaining convection along or ahead of
the front due to very limited forcing and the dynamics lifting
quickly away from the region.

Dewpoints should recover fairly quickly late Monday into early
Tuesday well into the 60s. And deep layer southerly/southwesterly
flow will lead to effective bulk shear of 40-50 knots. Model
soundings show decent mid level lapse rates with MLCAPE generally
500-1250 J/kg. As such, current feelings are that the CAMs are
undergoing the precip and will trend toward the higher PoPs in
the synoptic and blended guidance. As a caveat, there is some hint
of a potential split in development with one area in the
proximity of the front across our far north/northwest and another
in our south/southeast in the vicinity of the higher theta-e and
moisture transport (with a potential minimum somewhere in the
middle). Did not try to get that cute with the spatial extent for
now given we are still 48 hours out.

The other trend with the 12z guidance has been a slight slowing of
the system - particularly when it comes to the sensible weather. Not
sure I`m ready to fully latch on to that solution just yet but did
maintain fairly high PoPs in the southeast through early Wednesday.
The remainder of the forecast looks fairly benign but generally cool
with the thermal trough lingering across the Tennessee Valley
through at least Friday. Some slow warming by next weekend.
