Seven Day Hazardous Weather Outlook

1. Is lightning in the forecast?  YES.  A slight chance of lightning today. Lightning is possible Wednesday night through the weekend.  Tropical systems often times do not produce a lot of lightning.  Isolated lightning is possible.

2.  Are severe thunderstorms in the forecast?  NO.

3. Is flash flooding in the forecast? POSSIBLE.  Areas that received heavy rainfall over the past week could receive additional heavy rainfall later this week into the weekend.  This could cause some ditches, fields, and roadways to flood.  Sharp rises on streams.  Some flooding is possible.

4. Will non-thunderstorm winds top 40 mph?  MONITOR.  Winds could be quite gusty with the remnants of Helene.  I will need to keep the wind forecast updated.  

5. Will temperatures rise above 100 degrees? NO.

6. Will the heat index (feels like temperature) exceed 100 degrees?  NO.   

7. Will the heat index (feels like temperature) exceed 110 degrees?  NO.

8. Will temperatures drop below 32 degrees?  NO.

. Will the wind chill dip below 10 degrees?  NO.

10.  Is measurable snow and/or sleet in the forecast?  NO.

11.  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.

Wednesday: 4.  Low risk.
Wednesday  night: 3.  Very low risk.
Thursday: 4.  Low risk.
Thursday night: 3.  Very low risk.
Friday: 3.  Very low risk.

Fire Weather Discussion

A few showers or thunderstorms will be possible over the southern half of the region this afternoon. Otherwise, deep mixing is expected with light winds and relative humidity dropping below 50%. The remnants of Tropical Storm Helene will begin to impact the region from east to west Thursday. Increasing northeast winds and relative humidity are expected. However, the Mark Twain should still see deep mixing and humidity dropping below 50%. Widespread heavy rainfall is expected Thursday night through Saturday. Scattered showers and storms will continue Sunday and Monday, before drying commences on Tuesday.

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 complex weather forecast into the weekend.  There are a lot of moving parts to the forecast.

Rainfall totals over the last few days ranged from almost nothing to over five inches!

Here were the radar indicated totals.  Some areas hit the jackpot in rain totals.  Double click images to enlarge them.

A few showers are possible again today.  Maybe a clap of thunder (isolated).  Pea size hail and cold air funnel are possible, as well.  Cold air funnels rarely tough down and are typically harmless.

The chance of rain today is a bit higher over our southern counties.  That would be along the MO/AR border and KY/TN border.

The next system to impact our region will be an upper level low that will push into the region over the next 24 hours.  This system will combine with the remnants of Hurricane Helene.

This will make for a messy forecast.  I continue to tweek the rain probabilities.  The system has slowed by about 12 hours.  I lowered Thursday’s rain probabilities (during the morning and early afternoon).

If you have outdoor plans Thursday into the weekend, then monitor updates and the Beau Dodson Weather Radars.

I know there are a lot of football games and other activities.

Peak rain chances will be Thursday night into Saturday afternoon.

Here is the latest National Hurricane Center track forecast for Helene.  You can see the D over our region.  That means it will be a tropical depression when it arrives.

The system lingers into the weekend.

Confidence in the overall forecast continues to increase.

The biggest question will be rainfall totals.  Some data shows a widespread three to six inches of rain.  There are questions about those totals.  Confidence in the final totals at any given location is low.

A widespread one to three inches is likely.  Then, bands of much higher totals will be possible, as well.

Here is the latest WPC/NOAA rainfall outlook.  Totals will vary, as always.  This is the general idea for the seven day rainfall forecast.

Double click the image to enlarge.  Confidence in one to three inches is high.  There is lower confidence in the the four to six inch totals that some data shows.

Let me show you some model data.  As you can see, rainfall totals vary on the models.  They will struggle with a system like this.  You get the general idea.

GFS model

EC model

Canadian model

Another look at the NOAA/WPC map

Showers may linger into Sunday and Monday.  With time, the coverage will become less and less.

A strong cold front will sweep through the region Tuesday night and Wednesday.  As a matter of fact, temperatures may remain in the 60s and low 70s Wednesday.  Autumn air.

Check out the EC model temperature forecast through next week.  A lot of 70s.  Hopefully, we can put the heat waves behind us.

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.

Occasionally, these maps are in Zulu time.  12z=7 AM.  18z=1  PM.  00z=7 PM. 06z=1  AM

Green represents light rain.  Dark green represents moderate rain.  Yellow and orange represent heavier rain.
