An explanation of what is happening in the atmosphere over the coming day

2014-11-24_13-38-04

Severe thunderstorm outlook.

Remember that a severe thunderstorm is defined as a thunderstorm that produces 60 mph winds or higher, quarter size hail or larger, and/or a tornado.

Tuesday night into Wednesday:  Severe weather is not anticipated.  Lightning possible during the day on Wednesday.  Pea size hail.

Wednesday night:  Thunderstorms are possible. Monitor updates.  Some of the storms could once again be intense.  Severe weather is again possible.  The main time frame of concern would be 12 am through 7 am

Thursday and Thursday night:  Thunderstorms are possible.  Some of the storms could be quite intense.  Severe weather is again possible.

Friday and Friday night:  I can’t rule out lightning on Friday and Friday evening.

Saturday into Sunday:  Severe weather is not anticipated.

Sunday night into Tuesday:  Thunderstorm chances may once again increase.  Monitor updates.

———————————————————

Your day by day analysis

Tuesday night
Confidence:  High

A calm night is anticipated.  Patchy fog is again possible.  This is especially true if we clear out a bit.  At this time, it appears quite a few clouds will remain in the area.  If fog does develop then it could be dense.

Wednesday
Confidence:  Medium

Wednesday will be a day of transition.  I had to increase rain chances.  A band of showers and perhaps thunderstorms is forecast to move across Missouri into Illinois and perhaps Kentucky/Tennessee.  This won’t be an all day rain.  A passing band of showers.  Temperatures should rebound into the upper 60’s north and perhaps some middle 70’s southern counties.

Winds may pick up a bit on Wednesday afternoon.  Perhaps some 15 to 20 mph gusts.

Wednesday night into Thursday night
Confidence:  Medium
Severe storms again possible

Another round of showers and thunderstorms will impact the weather on Wednesday night into Thursday night.  Some of these storms could produce hail, high winds, and isolated tornadoes.

The time frame of concern will likely be between 12 am and 7 am on Wednesday night and Thursday morning.  A second round of storms is possible Thursday afternoon and night.

There remain some questions about how this event unfolds.  One question is timing.  If storms arrive after midnight on Wednesday night/Thursday morning, then we will have less CAPE.  Wind fields, however, will remain strong.  There will be shear for storms to work with.

I am anticipating a line of thunderstorms to move into the region late Wednesday night and Thursday morning.  Typically, these type of events produce reports of wind damage and short lived tornadoes.  Monitor updates.

Thursday morning will deliver clouds.  Will the clouds thin or clear?  That is the big question.  If the clouds move out then temperatures will rise and CAPE will build.  CAPE is a measure of energy in the atmosphere.  The higher the CAPE the higher the risk for severe weather.  This will need to be monitored.  I don’t think we will know until Thursday morning.  That is the way these severe weather events usually unfold.

I would encourage everyone to monitor updated information.

Let’s look at a couple of maps

Lapse rates are important because they give us an idea of hail potential.  High lapse rates normally mean a higher risk for large hail.  This map is for 1 am on Thursday morning.

Those are some decent numbers.  We need to monitor Wednesday night and Thursday morning for thunderstorms.  Some potential for strong storms.

Future-cast radar for Wednesday night/Thursday morning shows a line of storms pushing into the area

4 am future-cast radar (won’t be exact).  This is what the NAM model thinks we happen.  A line of storms advances into our region from the west.

7 am future-cast radar for Thursday

Let’s look at the Thursday event.

This is the EHI numbers at 4 PM on Thursday.  Some spiking over southeast Missouri.  EHI numbers are important, because they give us an idea of where the greatest shear is forecast to occur.  Shear is one ingredient for severe storms.

4 PM Thursday

Supercell composite for Thursday afternoon spikes over portions of our region, as well.

Let’s look at the NAM future-cast radar.  This is what one model believes will happen on Thursday afternoon and evening.

This is the 4 pm map.  Thursday afternoon.  Another line of storms.  Let’s keep an eye on all of this.

We have regional radars and local city radars – if a radar does not update then try another one. Occasional browsers need their cache cleared. You may also try restarting your browser. That usually fixes the problem. Occasionally we do have a radar go down. That is why I have duplicates. Thus, if one fails then try another one.

During the winter you can track snow and ice by clicking the winterize button on the local city view interactive radars.

Who do you trust for your weather information and who holds them accountable?

I have studied weather in our region since the late 1970’s.  I have 39 years of experience in observing our regions weather patterns.  My degree is in Broadcast Meteorology and a Bachelor’s of Science.

My resume includes:

There is a lot of noise on the internet.  A lot of weather maps are posted without explanation.  Over time you should learn who to trust for your weather information.

My forecast philosophy is simple and straight forward.

  • Communicate in simple terms
  • To be as accurate as possible within a reasonable time frame before an event
  • Interact with you on Twitter, Facebook, email, texts, and this blog
  • Minimize the “hype” that you might see on some television stations or through other weather sources
  • Push you towards utilizing wall-to-wall LOCAL TV coverage during severe weather events
