Seven Day Hazardous Weather Outlook
1. Is lightning in the forecast? YES. Isolated lightning risk today (Sunday). A chance of lightning Wednesday through at least Saturday. I will need to monitor next Sunday.
2. Are severe thunderstorms in the forecast? MONITOR. A few of the thunderstorms mid to late week could produce damaging wind gusts. A low-end severe weather risk.
3. Is flash flooding in the forecast? POSSIBLE. Thunderstorm complexes could produce two to four inches of rain in a few short hours. I will be monitoring mid to late week.
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? POSSIBLE. Heat index values may approach or exceed 100 degrees Wednesday. I will monitor the other days.
7. Will the heat index (feels like temperature) exceed 110 degrees? NOT AT THIS TIME.
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.
Sunday through Sunday night: 3. Very low risk.
Monday: 4. Low risk.
Monday night: 4. Low risk.
Fire Weather Discussion
A cold front will move across the region early this morning with scattered showers and storms. A wetting rain is possible in a few locations before quiet weather arrives later today. Much drier air moves in tonight with minRH values around 35-40% on Monday. Dispersion will generally be good today with north winds, but will be more poor on Monday due to a lighter east wind.
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.

Beau’s Forecast Discussion
A cold front is pushing across the region.
Overnight, very heavy thunderstorms moved across the area. Some counties received two to five inches of rain! There was some flooding reported in far southeast Missouri, extreme southern Illinois, and western Kentucky. Some of the heavy rain extended into western Tennessee, as well.
Those thunderstorms developed along a front boundary that is slowly moving southward through the region.
You can see lower dew points north of the front. Higher muggy dew points south of the front.
10 am dew points. It feels nice over our northern counties. Muggy southern counties.
A LARGE range of heat index values. You can see the front was brought cooler temperatures over our northern counties.
Here were the 10 am observations. Sunday.
The good news is that the cooler air will filter into the region today and tonight. As a matter of fact, some locations may dip into the 50s tonight and Monday night. You can open your windows! It will feel great outside.
Highs Monday will mostly be in the 80s. Lower dew points will make it feel better. A great day for outdoor activities or work.
Hot and muggier air will push back into the region by Tuesday afternoon and Wednesday.
Heat index values Wednesday will rise into the lower 100’s. Perhaps heat advisory levels. Either way, hot and humid weather returns.
Active weather mid to late week.
A series of cold fronts will push into the region Wednesday into the weekend. This will mean on and off thunderstorm chances. Some of the storms will tap into very muggy humid air. That equals extremely heavy rainfall totals.
I would not be surprised if some locations receive 4 to 8 inches of rain this week.
MCS’s will be a concern. See below for more information on MCS’s.
These MCS”s could train over the same areas. If that happens, then excessive rainfall totals will be an issue.
Some of the thunderstorms could be severe, as well.
There is not a strong signal for severe weather, but I am watching Thursday.
Otherwise, we will be on the watch for thunderstorm complexes Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday.
If the front pushes farther southward, then thunderstorm chances will be lower. I will need to monitor the placement of the front.
For now, I capped rainfall probabilities around 40%. I would not be a bit surprised if there were some 12 hour time periods where we have to bump those up to 60% to 80%.
MCS’s are not known for their predictability. Thus, I will need to monitor each 12 to 24 hour window of time.
If you remember, last summer we had 10 to 20+ inches of rain in July from a series of MCS’s. August brought additional ones.
We will have to closely monitor the weather pattern over the coming weeks. We will be swinging between the heat ridge (dry) and MCS’s (floods). The placement of the heat dome/the heat ridge will determine where the MCS’s move.
MCS’s can bring damaging wind, as well.
Microburst winds can also occur with summer thunderstorms. Microbursts occur when thunderstorms collapse. All that air pushes downward and outward. This can cause damage to trees and power lines.
A microburst is a localized column of sinking air (downdraft) within a thunderstorm and is usually less than or equal to 2.5 miles in diameter. Microbursts can cause extensive damage at the surface, and in some instances, can be life-threatening.

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.
