SPC 0700Z Day 2 Outlook
Day 2 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1145 PM CST Wed Dec 18 2024 Valid 201200Z - 211200Z ...NO THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST... ...SUMMARY... Thunderstorms are not expected across the Lower 48 on Friday. ...Synopsis... An upper shortwave trough developing southeast over the northern/central Plains to the to the Mid-MS Valley will reinforce mean upper troughing over the eastern half of the CONUS on Friday. Strong surface high pressure will overspread the central U.S. while a cold front develops far south into the Gulf and offshore the Atlantic coast. This will leave a dry and stable airmass over much of the CONUS, and thunderstorm chances will be low. ..Leitman.. 12/19/2024

SPC 1200Z Day 1 Outlook
Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1048 PM CST Wed Dec 18 2024 Valid 191200Z - 201200Z ...NO THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST... ...SUMMARY... Thunderstorms are not expected today through tonight. ...Discussion... A quiescent pattern for thunderstorms is expected over the CONUS today through tonight. A weakening cold front will become increasingly ill-defined as it settles southward over the FL Peninsula. A few, low-topped showers might form along it this afternoon. But the lack of adequate convergence and weak mid-level lapse rates should preclude thunderstorm development over land. Elsewhere, scant elevated buoyancy may accompany a progressive shortwave trough as it tracks from the northern Great Plains to the OH Valley. With a cold thermodynamic profile, this minimal buoyancy would emanate from sub-freezing parcels rooted near 700 mb. A few flashes might occur along the southern envelope of winter precipitation in the MN/IA to WI/IL border vicinity this morning/afternoon. This could produce a very isolated thunder threat, but probabilities appear below 10 percent. ..Grams/Lyons.. 12/19/2024

NASA continues to advance its campaign to explore more of the Moon than ever before, awarding Firefly Aerospace $179 million to deliver six experiments to the lunar surface. This fourth task order for Firefly will target landing in the Gruithuisen Domes on the near side of the Moon in 2028. As part of the agency’s […] - Wed, 18 Dec 2024 21:18:44 +0000: NASA Payload Aims to Probe Moon’s Depths to Study Heat Flow - NASA
Earth’s nearest neighboring body in the solar system is its Moon, yet to date humans have physically explored just 5% of its surface. It wasn’t until 2023 – building on Apollo-era data and more detailed studies made in 2011-2012 by NASA’s automated GRAIL (Gravity Recovery and Interior Laboratory) mission – that researchers conclusively determined that […] - Wed, 18 Dec 2024 21:17:58 +0000: NASA Knows: How Does the Sun Behave? (Grades 5-8) - NASA
This article is for students grades 5-8. The Sun is the star of our solar system. Its gravity holds Earth and our planetary neighbors in its orbit. At 865,000 miles (1.4 million km) in diameter, it’s the largest object in our solar system. On Earth, its influence is felt in our weather, seasons, climate, and […] - Wed, 18 Dec 2024 21:15:23 +0000: NASA, CU Enact Collaborative Space Act Agreement - NASA
