Seven Day Hazardous Weather Outlook
1. Is lightning in the forecast? YES. Lightning is likely today into Wednesday night. Beginning over our northern counties Tuesday and then developing southward. I will monitor Thursday. I will monitor Saturday into Monday, as well (isolated chances over our southern counties).
2. Are severe thunderstorms in the forecast? POSSIBLE. Some of the thunderstorms today into Wednesday could produce damaging wind gusts and torrential downpours. The risk of severe weather will peak late this afternoon into the first half of tonight. Wind being the primary concern.
3. Is flash flooding in the forecast? POSSIBLE. Locally heavy rain will develop today into Wednesday evening. Somee locations will receive two to four inches of rain in a short amount of time. This could lead to flooding. Stay weather aware if you are camping. Avoid flooded roadways. Not everyone will experience those type of rainfall totals, but some will.
4. Will non-thunderstorm winds top 40 mph? NO.
5. Will temperatures rise above 100 degrees? NO.
6. Will the heat index (feels like temperature) exceed 100 degrees? YES. Heat index values today will top 100 degrees. Some locations will hit the 105 to 109 mark. Temperatures may be lower where clouds and precipitation occur. Mainly our northern counties. They could avoid the higher heat index values. Keep that in mind.
7. Will the heat index (feels like temperature) exceed 110 degrees? Isolated. A few locations could hit the 110 degree mark today.
8. Will the wind chill dip below 10 degrees? NO.
9. Is measurable snow and/or sleet in the forecast? NO.
10. Is freezing rain/ice in the forecast? NO.
Freezing rain is rain that falls and instantly freezes on objects such as trees and power lines Freezing fog possible, as well.
Fire weather risk level.
Tuesday through Tuesday night: 4 today and 3 tonight. Low risk.
Wednesday: 3. Very low risk.
Wednesday night: 3. Very low risk.
Fire Weather Discussion
Today will be hot and humid again, but chances for showers and thunderstorms will ramp up this afternoon into tonight ahead of an approaching cold front. Widespread wetting rains are forecast tonight through Wednesday night. Much drier, cooler, and less humid conditions are forecast from Thursday into the weekend.
A Haines Index of 6 means a high potential for an existing fire to become large or exhibit erratic fire behavior, 5 means medium potential, 4 means low potential, and anything less than 4 means very low potential.

Tuesday Forecast: A mix of sun and clouds (more clouds north vs south). Hot and muggy. Temperatures will vary based on cloud cover and thunderstorms. A chance of thunderstorms. Chances will be higher over our northern counties. There will be one round Tuesday morning moving in from central Illinois. It will be moving southward into our northern counties. The highest chance of precipitation Tuesday morning will be northern portions of southeast Missouri and northern portions of southern Illinois. Into northwest Kentucky, as well.

Beau’s Forecast Discussion
We are waking up to a complex of thunderstorms (called an MCS) that is moving through Missouri, Illinois, and Kentucky. This is the same complex of storms that brought widespread damage well to our north last night.
Thankfully, it has been weakening, but still is packing a bunch with lightning and heavy rain. There have even been some flash flood warnings.
This was the 7 am radar snapshot (see our local radars at the bottom of the page). You can see the MCS/thunderstorm complex slowly pushing southward. It is losing strength as it moves south southeast.
Still, there is some torrential downpours embedded in it. Especially near the Mt Vernon, Illinois area. Training storms have produced pockets of four inches of rain (and higher).
Local Paducah, Kentucky NWS radar (7 AM radar shot).
This area of showers and thunderstorms continues to push south southeast. It will continue to weaken. There remain some questions about how far south it will survive.
It will help lower temperatures today (for some). Where clouds are thicker and where rain occurs temperatures won’t be as hot. It will still be muggy.
This dying MCS will leave an outflow boundary across the region. An outflow boundary is a boundary left from dying thunderstorms. This will help in the development of new storms later this afternoon into tonight.
In addition to those storms, new storms will form to our west northwest and move into the area. You can see those on radar, as well (see above and look towards Kansas City). That will be moving southeast through the day.
Some of the rain will be heavy. As a matter of fact, similar to recent events, some spots could easily pick up two to four inches of rain. That won’t be the norm, but for some it will be a summer gully washer.
The WPC/NOAA has placed our region in a risk of excessive rainfall. This means that some pockets of flash flooding can’t be ruled out.
Yellow is a level two risk. Green is a level one.
Tuesday
Wednesday excessive rainfall outlook
Summer storms can produce extremely heavy rain in a short period of time. Last week portions of Jackson County, Illinois received three to six inches of rain in just a few hours. That shows you how prolific these thunderstorms can be when it comes to rainfall totals.
Flash flooding will once again be possible in a few select locations. Unfortunately, we can’t predict exactly where the heaviest rain totals will be. Monitor updates, watches, and warnings.
The NWS did expand the flood watch (shown at the top of the page, as well).
Double click images to enlarge them.
In addition to prolific rainfall, the storms will be capable of producing frequent cloud to ground lightning and strong wind gusts. Some isolated damaging wind gusts will be possible with the most intense thunderstorms.
The front should be through most of the area by Thursday. Some storms may linger into Thursday morning. Mainly over our southern counties. I will need to monitor the speed of the cold front. If we are lucky, the front will push completely through the region Wednesday night.
If you have outdoor activities Tuesday into Thursday morning, then monitor the most up to date weather information. Be prepared for some intense thunderstorms.
Cooler air will arrive by Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Less humid. Lower dew points. Lower temperatures. It will be nice outside!
I do have low end thunderstorm chances over our southern counties Saturday into Monday. For now, I have those capped around 20% to 30%. I will monitor trends in case there needs to be adjustments in those numbers.

Today’s Storm Prediction Center’s (SPC) Severe Weather Outlook
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 or larger size hail, and/or a tornado.
