7-day forecast for southeast Missouri, southern Illinois, western Kentucky, and western Tennessee.

This is a blend for the region.  See the detailed region by region forecast further down in this post.

.



.


.
Monday through Monday

1.  Is lightning in the forecast?  Yes.   Lightning will be possible Wednesday through at least Sunday

2.  Are severe thunderstorms in the forecast?  Low risk.   The main concern will be down burst wind.  Thunderstorms, during the summer months, can grow to 40,000 to 55,000′.  When they weaken they can collapse.  This causes high winds.  Winds can exceed 50 mph.

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

3.  Is flash flooding in the forecast? Possible.  Slow moving storms will produce heavy rain.  Pockets of flash flooding may occur.

4.  Will there be a chance of a frost or freeze?  No.

5.  Will the heat index exceed 100 degrees?  Yes.  Heat index values from 100 to 105 are likely outside of cloudy areas.

6.  Will the wet-bulb globe temperature reach caution or danger levels?  Yes.

.
Monday WBGT (F): 83° Take 15 minute breaks each hour of working or exercising in direct sunlight.
Tuesday WBGT (F): 84° Take 15 minute breaks each hour of working or exercising in direct sunlight.
Wednesday WBGT (F): 83° Take 15 minute breaks each hour of working or exercising in direct sunlight.
Thursday WBGT (F): 84° Take 15 minute breaks each hour of working or exercising in direct sunlight.
Friday WBGT (F): 84° Take 15 minute breaks each hour of working or exercising in direct sunlight.
Saturday WBGT (F): 83° Take 15 minute breaks each hour of working or exercising in direct sunlight.
Sunday WBGT (F): 82° Take 15 minute breaks each hour of working or exercising in direct sunlight.

.

The WetBulb Globe Temperature (WBGT) is a measure of the heat stress in direct sunlight, which takes into account: temperature, humidity, wind speed, sun angle and cloud cover (solar radiation).

This differs from the heat index, which takes into consideration temperature and humidity and is calculated for shady areas.

If you work or exercise in direct sunlight, this is a good element to monitor.

Sports coaches, schools, military agencies, OSHA, and many nations use the WBGT as a guide to managing workload in direct sunlight.

  1.  Highs in the upper 80s to middle 90s this week.  Heat concerns.
  2.  Thunderstorms will be possible Wednesday into at least Saturday.  Locally heavy rain will be the primary concern.  A lower risk of wind damage and hail.

Today through July 20th:  Thunderstorms Wednesday into Sunday could produce isolated wind damage.  Torrential downpours and nickel size hail, as well.  Lightning will be a concern for those outside.  There is a low-end risk of severe thunderstorms.  This chance increases if we can get a complex of thunderstorm (an MCS) to form.

 

 

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 advice:

Updated July 13, 2020

Scattered thunderstorms Wednesday into at least Sunday.  Some of the storms could produce locally heavy rain and gusty wind.  Avoid flooded roadways.

Heat index values will rise above 100 by Wednesday.  Muggy weather.  Use care when working outdoors, as always.

Don’t leave pets, children, or adults in hot cars.  Cars can rapidly heat to above 115 degrees in this kind of weather.  Use common sense, as always.

Weather Discussion

    1.   A warm week ahead.
    2.   Monitoring thunderstorm chances.

A typical summer pattern is taking shape for the Ohio and Tennessee Valley.

There are two main weather stories to talk about.

The first one is the ridge of high pressure that I spoke about last week.  During the summer months, a ridge of high pressure means heat and humidity.  Typically, a strong ridge can deliver middle to upper 90s+ across our region.

The good news is that weather model trends have shunted the ridge a tad further south and west.  This means temperatures won’t be quite as hot this week.  Don’t get me wrong, it will still be hot.  Just not as hot.

The second story will be thunderstorm chances around the edge of the ridge of high pressure.  Normally, we have what we call MCS’s that track around the edge of these summer ridges.

These MCS’s are large thunderstorm complexes.  These complexes typically track into our region from the west and north.  They can produce very heavy rain, strong and gusty wind, frequent lightning, and even some hail.

The biggest question will be where these thunderstorms track.

It appears the ridge will be stronger over Missouri and Arkansas.  That may help keep thunderstorm chances lower in those areas vs Illinois/KentuckyTennessee.

Today and Tuesday will likely be dry.  Rain chances will be less than 10%.

By Wednesday through Sunday there will be thunderstorm chances in the 30% to 50% range.  It will be difficult to pinpoint the exact track of thunderstorm complexes more than 24 hours out.

Thus, if you have outdoor plans this week then you will want to monitor updated forecasts and radars.

Thunderstorms can drop a quick one to two inches of rain in less than 30 minutes.  Same as recent weeks.

Portions of Calloway and Trigg Counties received 3.5 to 4.5″ of rain Saturday night/Sunday morning.  Other locations received no measurable rain.  You have to love summer in our local area.

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.

.

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.
