🌪️ Seven-Day Tornado Outlook ⛈️
August 8th through August 14th
Current risk: NONE.
Current confidence level: High confidence in the forecast.
Comments: We are not anticipating tornadoes.
.

Seven-Day Hazardous Weather Outlook
1. Is lightning in the forecast? ISOLATED. A small chance of lightning through Sunday (10% or less). Scattered lightning is possible from Monday through Thursday (20% to 30%).
2. Are organized severe thunderstorms in the forecast? NO. Thunderstorms, during the summer months, can produce isolated gusty winds. Organized severe weather is not anticipated.
3. Is flash flooding in the forecast? NO. Slow-moving summer storms can produce isolated torrential downpours that can briefly flood ditches and roadways. Organized or widespread flash flooding is not anticipated.
4. Will non-thunderstorm winds top 40 mph? NO.
5. Will temperatures rise above 90 degrees? LIKELY. Today through next Friday.
6. Will temperatures rise above 100 degrees? NO.
7. Will the heat index (feels like) rise above 100 degrees? NOT AT THIS TIME. We may flirt with 100 next week (depending on the placement of a cold front).
8. Will the heat index rise above 115 degrees? NO.
Here is my concern meter through Friday. No significant concerns.

.
Here is the extended concern meter outlook. This takes us through next Thursday. Extreme weather is not anticipated.
We are solidly in the green. That means that I am not concerned.
Keep in mind that typical August/summer thunderstorms can produce isolated heavy rain, lightning, and gusty winds.

Forecast discussion.
- More warm and humid weather ahead. Typical August weather. No extremes.
- Warm mornings. Warm/hot afternoons.
- An isolated shower or thunderstorm will be possible through Sunday. Most areas will remain dry.
- Scattered thunderstorms will be possible from Monday through Thursday.

Good morning, everyone. I hope you are having a nice week.
More of the same. Warm, humid, and mostly dry.
The new drought monitor is out. A few patches of yellow in southeast Missouri. That means it is becoming dry.


I know many of you need rain. August is not known for widespread rain, unless there is a tropical system that moves through the region.
Yesterday was warm and humid. There were a few showers and thunderstorms in the region, but the vast majority of the area was dry.
Today will be a repeat. Warm and humid. A few morning clouds are moving southward from a dying thunderstorm complex.
You can see those clouds on this satellite map (5 am). These clouds should dissipate as we move through the next few hours.

.
We will have a relatively stagnant weather pattern through next Monday. I can’t rule out an isolated heat-of-the-day pop-up storm, but the vast majority of the region will remain dry.
Currently, I have a 20% to 30% chance of storms from Monday through Thursday. We will see if one of those days trends higher with probabilities.
At this time, it appears the highest chance of precipitation will be on Tuesday and Wednesday.
Again, some of you may miss out completely.
It will be warm this weekend and next week. Temperatures will range from the lower to the mid-nineties for daytime highs. Temperatures will dip into the seventies for overnight lows.
It will be a bit humid, at times. Typical August weather.
The extended EC model output shows warm weather ahead of us.
.
Here is my mugmometer. How muggy will it feel?
Remember, dew point is what controls how humid it feels outside. It will be a bit more humid/sticky as we move through the week, but nothing extreme.
No tropical storm or hurricane threats in our region through the next ten days.
I will keep an eye on mid to late August for a higher risk of tropical development in the Gulf of Mexico. For now, nothing of concern.
Have a super weekend!
