AllSkyLaps_sfc900_vs_700-300 Comparison

Monitoring environment downstream of convection entering FWD forecast area around 1830 UTC on May 2.  Top image is the sfc-900 mb ALLSkyLaps PW illustrating higher moisture over southern portion half of the FWD CWA.  Bottom image is the 700-300 ALLSky Laps PW illustrating much drier air above suggesting convective instability.   SPC Mesoanalysis  RAP downdraft CAPE (not shown) also suggests axis of highest DD Cape in this region suggesting environment supportive for damaging winds as line segments moves across the FWD area later this afternoon. – Quik Twip
