Tuesday to Tuesday
1. Is lightning in the forecast? Yes. Today through Friday morning. Peak times will be tonight/Wednesday and Thursday afternoon and night.
2. Are severe thunderstorms in the forecast? Yes. A few storms could produce 50 mph wind and nickel size hail Wednesday afternoon and evening. Storms may become severe Thursday afternoon and night as a stronger system moves through the region. Large hail and damaging wind will be the primary concern. I can’t rule out a tornado. See the severe weather blog. The Severe Weather Live-Blog has been activated. Please see it at this link. Click here.
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? Unlikely. Thunderstorms may produce some downpours Wednesday and Thursday. Widespread flood issues are not in the forecast.
4. Will the heat index top 100 degrees? No.
5. Will the wind chill dip below 10 degrees above zero? No.
6. Will there be accumulating snow and ice in the forecast? No.

Today through May 31st: The Severe Weather Live-Blog has been activated. Please see it at this link. Click here.
A few storms could produce 50 mph wind and nickel size hail Wednesday afternoon and evening. A low risk of severe thunderstorms.
A greater risk of severe weather will develop Thursday afternoon and night. Large hail and damaging wind will be the primary concern. A tornado can’t be ruled out. Thursday’s event is a conditional risk. Meaning, that there remain questions about whether a line of thunderstorms will form during the afternoon over Missouri and Illinois. If it does form, then severe weather will be possible.
The risk is higher over southeast Missouri and southwest Illinois and a bit lower elsewhere. Monitor updates. See the severe weather blog.
.
.
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
-
- Showers and thunderstorms chances into Friday.
- A few storms could become severe Wednesday and Thursday.
- Cooler by the weekend.
- Decent Saturday through Monday forecast.
The Severe Weather Live-Blog has been activated. Please see it at this link. Click here.
The primary forecast concern over the coming days will be showers and thunderstorms.
A few scattered showers and thunderstorms will be possible as early as today. The coverage will, however, be limited.
Rain chances will begin to increase tonight into tomorrow. Into the likely category.
It won’t rain all of the time, but there will be rain on radar pretty much through most of tonight and tomorrow.
A few of the thunderstorms could be intense Wednesday afternoon and evening. There will be some energy in the atmosphere. The wind shear, however, is going to be fairly weak.
That means that the risk of severe thunderstorms will be limited. I don’t expect an outbreak of severe weather Wednesday. A few storms could produce strong and gusty wind and perhaps nickel size hail.
I can’t rule out a severe thunderstorm watch, but this appears to be a low-end severe weather risk.
I will monitor today’s data and update accordingly.
Let’s take a look at the CAPE maps. CAPE is basically energy for thunderstorms to tap into.
You can see limited CAPE Wednesday but higher CAPE Thursday afternoon and night.
.
Thursday will deliver higher severe weather chances.
The SPC (Storm Prediction Center) has outlined the risk of severe thunderstorms for our entire area. As a matter of fact they have a level one, two, and three risk outlined.
Five is their highest risk.
The thinking is that a dying line of thunderstorms will push across Missouri and Illinois Thursday morning and then redevelop Thursday afternoon into Thursday night.
It is this line that they are concerned about producing high wind, hail, and even some tornadoes.
The risk is conditional. There are questions about whether the line will reignite. This will need to be monitored. I will start the severe weather blog in case the event verifies.
The primary concern will be afternoon into the overnight hours. Showers and thunderstorms would then taper off Friday afternoon and evening.
Here is the discussion from the Storm Prediction Center. The graphic shows you their primary concern zone. You can see the risk is a bit higher as you travel west/southwest.
Since this is their day three outlook, it is likely to change between now and when the event occurs. They could add or remove counties from the risk zone.
Thus, monitor updated forecasts. Adjustments are likely.
.
.
The supercell thunderstorm composite shows peak numbers Thursday PM and then waning Thursday night.
The supercell composite is one indicator of severe thunderstorms.
.
Let’s look at dew points. When considering severe weather I generally look for 60 degrees and above.
Dew point is an indicator of moisture in the atmosphere. It also controls how muggy it feels outside.
.
Dew points Wednesday afternoon will reach into the upper 60s to around 70. That is muggy air. That is enough moisture to help produce some downpours with any thunderstorms that develop.
.
We take a look at the dew point animation for Thursday, as well. You can see the moisture streaming northward ahead of our storm system. Pumping moisture into our region.
.
Let’s look at another moisture indicator. PWAT values. PWAT is something I look at when considering heavy rain or heavy downpours from showers/thunderstorms.
We will have quite a bit of moisture in the region. Not extreme, but enough to help produce some locally heavy downpours.
Rain totals between now and Friday will vary greatly. If you end up with a couple of thunderstorms then an inch of rain will be possible.
Generally, rain totals of 0.20″ to 0.50″ is anticipated. Again, storms will cause heavier totals.
It is not out of the question that some areas receive very little in the way of rain. Typical for this time of the year.
.
Rain chances will diminish Friday morning becoming less likely as the day wears on.
.Much cooler weather is anticipated Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.
Latest guidance indicates highs will likely remain in the 70s over the weekend and then lows in the 50s. Much cooler than recent days.
Most likely Saturday and Sunday will be dry. Monday will likely be dry over most of the region. Perhaps a shower in the Missouri Ozarks.
Here is the weekend temperature forecast numbers. Spring temperatures. Cooler.

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.
