🌪️ Seven-Day Tornado Outlook ⛈️

November 3rd to November 9th

Current risk: At this time, tornadoes are not anticipated. I am monitoring next Saturday.

Current confidence level: Medium confidence.

Comments: A cold front will push across the region on Saturday. A few storms are possible along that front. For now, I am not forecasting severe thunderstorms. Monitor updates.

Seven-Day Hazardous Weather Outlook

1. Is lightning in the forecast? MONITOR. A small chance of lightning on Friday and Saturday.

2. Are organized/widespread severe thunderstorms in the forecast? NOT AT THIS TIME. A cold front will push across the region next Saturday. A few storms are possible along that front. For now, I am not forecasting severe thunderstorms.

.3. Is significant or widespread flash flooding in the forecast? NO.

4. Will non-thunderstorm winds top 40 mph? NO.

5. Will temperatures rise above 90 degrees? NO.

6. Will the temperature fall below 32 degrees? POSSIBLE. Next Sunday night. The risk of that increases next Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday night.

6. Will the temperature fall below 32 degrees? POSSIBLE. A chance of 32 degrees or lower on Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday night of next week.

8. Is accumulating snow or ice in the forecast? NO.

Here is the short-range concern meter.

Here is the extended concern meter. This takes us through next Sunday.

Lightning is possible on Friday and Saturday. I will keep an eye on Saturday’s instability levels. If we had more instability, then stronger storms would develop.

Forecast discussion

A warming trend.
Monitoring rain chances late Thursday night into Friday night. Showers are possible along that front.
A stronger cold front is expected on Saturday/Sunday.
The coldest air of the autumn, thus far, will be next week.

Seven-day outlook graphic.

See the video for more details specific to your county. This is a broad-brushed outlook for the entire region.

Today through Thursday

We are waking up to chilly temperatures.

Here were the 5 am temperatures. A few locations have dropped to near freezing.

We do have some patchy fog in the region. Use care. Fog is possible again tonight.

There are no weather concerns today through Thursday. Dry conditions.

Temperatures are expected to rise above average over the coming days. Some locations will hit 70+ degrees!

The warmest days will be on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday.

Wednesday highs

Thursday highs

A few showers are possible late Thursday night.

Friday through Monday

Two cold fronts will pass through the region between Friday and Monday.

The first cold front will arrive on Friday. The second cold front will arrive on Saturday and Sunday.

The Friday front is a weak one. The Saturday/Sunday front will be stronger.

A few showers will accompany the front on Friday. Most likely late Thursday night into Friday afternoon.

Another round of scattered showers on Saturday/Saturday night. Perhaps a rumble of thunder.

I am not expecting significant rain. Rainfall totals of 0.01 to 0.30″ are anticipated.

I would not cancel any weekend plans. Monitor updates over the coming days.

See the video for more details.

It appears that southeast Missouri and southwest Illinois may receive little or no rainfall. Southwest Indiana, western Kentucky, and western Tennessee will see higher rainfall totals. Again, either way, totals will be on the light side.

The rainfall totals shown below are from both cold fronts.

There could still be some adjustments to this. There are questions about instability on Saturday. If we had a bit more instability, then severe weather would become a concern.

For now, severe weather is not in the forecast. I will monitor it.

Thunderstorms could also enhance rainfall totals.

Take the general idea from this. Monitor updates.

The coldest air of the autumn season will arrive next week.

Temperatures may actually fall during the day on Sunday.

A hard freeze is likely next Monday and Tuesday night. I will monitor Sunday night.

Gusty winds are likely on Saturday, Sunday, and Monday. Gusting above 20 mph.

You can see the cold air arriving in this animation. Those blue colors are temperatures in the 20s.

This is the GFS model. The EC model is not as cold, but still plenty chilly. The truth will likely be somewhere in the middle of those models.

In the end, it appears a hard freeze is likely next week.

We have a new service to complement your www.weathertalk.com subscription. This does NOTreplace www.weathertalk.com It is simply another tool for you to receive severe weather information.

I use it myself. I encourage everyone to have 3 to 5 ways of receiving their severe weather information. All sources can fail, and the more sources you have, the better prepared you will be in the event of severe weather warnings.

WeatherCall will call your cell phone or home number if your home is under a tornado or severe thunderstorm warning. It only calls you ifyour home is inside the warning box/polygon. If you are outside the warning box/polygon it will not disturb you.

Here is a video with more information and a demonstration of how it works.
