🌪️ Seven-Day Tornado and Severe Weather Outlook ⛈️

June 7th  through June 13th

Current severe weather risk:  POSSIBLE.  A few of the thunderstorms today and tomorrow could produce strong wind gusts and small hail.  There is a risk that a few of the thunderstorms will produce damaging wind gusts.  I am monitoring Thursday and Friday as well.

The risk is a bit higher for those strong thunderstorm wind gusts over southeast Missouri.

Current tornado risk:  LOW.  We will have thunderstorms over the coming days.  There is a little bit of spin in the atmosphere.  I can’t rule out a weak tornado or landspout.  

Current confidence level: Medium.

Seven-Day Rainfall Totals

Rainfall total maps for today through next Sunday morning.

* As is typical for late spring, totals will vary greatly.  Thunderstorms can double your rainfall totals.  Keep that in mind.  I would not be surprised if a few spots receive more than three inches of rain this week.

** NEW SERVICE **  I have partnered with WeatherCall to bring you an added layer of protection.
.

.
We have a new service to complement your www.weathertalk.com subscription.  This does NOT replace 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 to receive 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 if your 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.
