Today’s outlook (below).
Light green is where thunderstorms may occur but should be below severe levels.
Dark green is a level one risk. Yellow is a level two risk. Orange is a level three (enhanced) risk. Red is a level four (moderate) risk. Pink is a level five (high) risk.
One is the lowest risk. Five is the highest risk.
A severe storm is one that produces 58 mph wind or higher, quarter size hail, and/or a tornado.
The tan states are simply a region that SPC outlined on this particular map. Just ignore that.
The black outline is our local area.

Weather Discussion
-
- Nicer weather for the week ahead. Cooler. Less muggy.
- Smoke and haze potential. Northwest wind flow = smoke potential.
- Watching low-end shower/storm chances this afternoon and tonight over southeast Missouri (primarily).
- Watching a disturbance Friday. Perhaps a few showers.
- Another cold front to watch early next week.
.
Weather advice:
Make sure you are using the Beau Dodson Weather Talk app and not text messages. We can’t rely on Verizon and ATT to send out the text messages in a timely manner. Thus, we made the app. See links at the bottom of the page.

Weather Discussion
First, we once again may have to deal with smoke and haze in the region. Winds aloft are coming in from the northwest. This is brining smoke and haze from the Canadian wild-fires into our local area.
If you remember, several months ago I mentioned we would have to deal with smoke this summer and autumn.
Notice the jet stream coming in from the Pacific Northwest and Canada? Then, it dives into our region. The smoke follows that path.
.
Welcome to August, everyone. Meteorologists consider summer as June, July, and August. That means this is the last month of summer. How about that. We are almost to autumn! Hard to believe.
We have nice weather today for most of the region. A boundary is near the region and this boundary produced some surprise showers and thunderstorms Sunday night in the area.
The boundary could pop a couple of showers and thunderstorms over southeast Missouri later today and tonight. The odds of precipitation further east is lower.
It will be cooler and less humid today. Some locations may not reach 80 degrees! Hard to believe after last weeks horrid muggy dew points. That air-mass is long gone. Thankfully.
The Week Ahead
The weather will be calm through most of this week.
I could use some rain at the Weather Observatory. July started out wet. I recorded over seven inches of rain for the month. The last fourteen days, however, have been dry.
Seems every summer is like that. Feast or famine. Too wet. Too dry. That is part of living here.
The region, as a whole, is doing okay in the rain department. Many areas have received beneficial rains. With that said, there are other portions of the region that could stand a bit more rain.
Let me show you the seven day rain totals. Radar estimated. Notice Massac County and a few other locations have had bad luck and missed out.
Here is the precipitation anomaly. Again, notice Massac County, Illinois and portions of surrounding counties. We need some rain. Bad luck.
There will be a slow warming trend Thursday onward. Temperatures will creep up a degree or two each day. Some areas could hit 90 degrees by Saturday and Sunday. A bit more humid Saturday and Sunday, as well. Nothing extreme showing up in the charts, yet.
It will feel much nicer outside this week. Camping weather. Cook-out weather. A small taste of September, perhaps.
I am monitoring a couple of weak weather systems. One brushes the region Friday and another Saturday/Sunday. A stronger system may approach the region by early next week. It will bring some shower and thunderstorm chances.
I added low-end rain chances to the Friday portion of the forecast. I introduced small shower/thunderstorm chances Sunday. Then, next week, as well.
Dew points will fall this week. We were seeing readings of 75 to 84 last week. Very muggy and humid air.
Check out this week’s dew point forecast graphics.

Again, as a reminder, these are models. They are never 100% accurate. Take the general idea from them.
What should I take from these?
- The general idea and not specifics. Models usually do well with the generalities.
- The time-stamp is located in the upper left corner.
- The EC European weather model is in Zulu time.
.
What am I looking at?
You are looking at different models. Meteorologists use many different models to forecast the weather. All models are wrong. Some are more wrong than others. Meteorologists have to make a forecast based on the guidance/models.
I show you these so you can see what the different models are showing as far as precipitation. If most of the models agree, then the confidence in the final weather forecast increases.
