Saturday to Saturday

1.  Are accumulating snow or ice in the forecast? No.

2. Is lightning in the forecast?   Monitor.  I am watching Saturday night into Sunday.  Lightning is possible.

3.  Are severe thunderstorms in the forecast?  Monitor. A few storms could produce 55 mph wind and dime size hail Saturday night and Sunday.  There is a low-end risk of damaging wind.

* The NWS officially defines a severe thunderstorm as a storm with 58 mph wind or greater,  1″ hail or larger,  and/or tornadoes

4.  Is flash flooding in the forecast?  Possible.  Heavy rain is likely Saturday night into Sunday.  Rain totals of 0.75″ to 1.75″ will occur.  There will be bands of greater than two inches.   Recent snow and rain have caused the ground to be saturated.  Avoid flooded roadways.  There will be sharp rises on streams and rivers.

6.  Will the wind chill dip below 10 degrees above zero?  No.

Today through March 3rd  Severe storms are possible Sunday, February 28, 2021

.

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.

.

Tomorrow’s severe weather outlook.

.

.

The images below are from the WPC.  Their totals are a bit lower than our current forecast.  I wanted to show you the comparison.

Weather advice:

Avoid flooded roadways.

A few storms could produce strong and gusty winds tonight and Sunday.  A low-end severe weather risk.

.

Weather Discussion

    1.   Locally heavy rain tonight and Sunday.
    2.   A few storms could produce strong and gusty wind.  Low-end severe risk.

.

Forecast Discussion

The main weather story continues to be rain chances.
.
It won’t rain all of the time but intervals of rain and storms.

.
We will have to see exactly where the boundary sets up.
.
More rain along and north of the boundary. A bit less to the south. Keep that in mind.
.
The peak timing of widespread showers and thunderstorms will be tonight and Sunday.

I am expecting a widespread 0.75″ to 1.75″ of rain.  There will be pockets of greater than two inches.

A flood watch covers most of the region.  Some fields may flood.  Streams and rivers will rise.  Avoid flooded roadways.

The watch also includes the Missouri Bootheel and northwest Tennessee.

Some NWS graphics.

.

Here is the WPC/NOAA rainfall outlook.

A bit more broad-brushed.

.

.

A few of the storms could produce strong and gusty winds and small hail as well.  There is a low-end severe weather risk.  Again, that would be tonight and Sunday.

Watch how temperatures and dew points rise tonight.  There will be quite a bit of moisture in the atmosphere for thunderstorms to tap into.  Thus, the heavy rain concerns.

Temperatures will rise as the warm front surges northward.

.

Dew points

.

PWAT values will also be on the rise.

PWAT values

Those are large numbers for February.  A good indicator that locally heavy rain will occur tonight and perhaps Sunday, as well.

.

CAPE

CAPE is basically energy for thunderstorms to tap into.  Instability.  We typically watch for surface based CAPE (although in the winter we can look at all levels).

Surface based CAPE tends to be related to severe thunderstorms.

There will not be much surface based CAPE tonight.  There will be some mid-level CAPE.

On Sunday, there will be a bit more surface based CAPE.   Thus, let’s keep an eye on the threat of a few intense thunderstorms over the next 24 to 36 hours.

.

Surface based CAPE. Sunday 1 PM.

Sunday 2 PM

Sunday 3 PM.  With time, it wanes.

.

The Storm Prediction Center has included portions of the region in a level one out of five risk for severe thunderstorms.  One is the lowest.  See graphics further up in the blog.

.

The WPC has placed portions of our region in a risk of enhanced rainfall.  What does that mean?  It simply means that locally heavy rain will be possible.

This first graphic covers Saturday night.  The yellow zone has a higher risk of heavy rain vs the green zone.  This may still need to be adjusted.

Either way, some locally heavy rain is likely in our region.  Some roads may flood.

This next graphic covers Sunday.  You can see, the heavier rain shifts southward with time.

Again, as a reminder, these are models. They are never 100% accurate. Take the general idea from them.

What should I take from these?

  1.  The general idea and not specifics. Models usually do well with the generalities.
  2.  The time-stamp is located in the upper left corner.
  3.  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.

You can see my final forecast at the top of the page.
