The worst of yesterday's forecasted severe storms ended up in Indianapolis, where damaging winds, hail, and a few tornadoes were reported.The next couple days will be VERY WARM! The next system will bring a storm chance on Wednesday, before we clear out again. After a dry period, another system may arrive by next Sunday...Alex C.
Severe thunderstorm watch until 12am midnight EDT...From the SPC: inside the watch area there is a 20% chance of tornadoes, 50% chance of winds >58mph, 50% chance of hail >1" in diameter, and a 30% chance of winds >70mph...Storms will probably be in the western part of the area after 7pm...and in Louisville after 8:30pm...stay tuned...Alex C.
Still awaiting storms to develop...there are some indications that storms could be developing now around St. Louis and central Illinois. These storms should continue to develop this afternoon, and the severe threat still exists. Damaging winds will be the primary threat, with isolated tornadoes and large hail secondary threats...I will be out for the evening but will try to post updates when the chances arise...Alex C.
No changes from SPC forecast...see previous post for more on that...Storms look to be a little later than expected, with expected time frame on I-65 being after 4pm...Damaging winds, large hail, and a few brief tornadoes are still possible...stay tuned...Alex C.
5% chance of tornadoes around the area this afternoon...
15% chance of damaging winds >58mph, and large hail >1" in diameter...Storms have begun to develop across Illinois and Missouri, and is moving east and southeast. Eventually, these storms will run into our area and strengthen. From the SPC: STORMS COULD BECOME ORGANIZED INTO SMALL...FORWARD- PROPAGATING MULTICELLULAR CLUSTERS/BANDS...PERHAPS WITH SPORADIC/EMBEDDED SUPERCELL STRUCTURES. THIS WILL ESPECIALLY BE TRUE NEAR THE OH RVR IN SRN IND/NRN-CNTRL KY...WHERE LOW TO MID LVL DIRECTIONAL SHEAR SHOULD BE GREATEST. STORMS COULD YIELD SVR HAIL/WIND AND POSSIBLY A BRIEF TORNADO OR TWO.Definitely something to keep an eye on for this afternoon. I think that the storms will probably bring a couple tornado warnings to our area this afternoon, especially over southern Indiana, before the system turns into a linear based line bringing damaging winds to the eastern part of the area...Alex C.
Immediate weather headline is the severe weather possible on Saturday...With this storm system, we will see a rush of warm air tomorrow afternoon followed by a cold front. We will have great midlevel winds, but maybe not as great of instability. However, the available energy will spark storms. Some of these storms could produce large hail, damaging winds. A few isolated tornadoes are possible as well, depending on how the storms set up. I will be posting throughout the day tomorrow on this situation...The SPC currently has us in a 15% chance of severe weather, but say that threat could change based on the timing...After this storm, we will have a warm early week with highs in the upper 80s before the next storm system comes in midweek...Alex C.
Less humid weather will arrive for tomorrow, but it won't last too long. Humidity will return Saturday, and there will be a chance for storms Saturday night.Sunday and Monday will be warm, with Monday being more humid before our next rain chance midweek...Alex C.
