Scattered Rain & Storms Today
Active weather today through Wednesday with strong storms in the forecast...
Strong southerly winds can gust up to 30mph this morning through today. This will keep temperatures mild in the 60s this morning. Ahead of a cold front, temperatures will fluctuate in the mid to upper 60s today depending on when showers/storms are lacking. During the morning hours, a few showers and storms are possible as they will slowly move into southeast Missouri. Most of this activity looks non-severe. As we warm up later today and moisture increases, there is the potential for strong storms this afternoon in southern portions of southeast Missouri into western Tennessee. The impacts will be for large hail, damaging winds, and heavy rain. This threat may linger into the evening hours as the front moves through.
A warm front will quickly return over the Heartland tomorrow continuing the higher surge in muggy conditions and temperatures yet again in the mid to upper 70s. Scattered storms are possible tomorrow with a lower threat for severe weather. This system will bring a front through on Wednesday which is likely going to be out higher day for severe weather. Tornadoes, large hail, and damaging winds are all possible on Wednesday. A few supercells can develop during the afternoon ahead of a line of storms that will trail leading into Wednesday night. Now it a great way to think of a safety plan and have multiple ways to get alerts!
Drier and calmer weather will end the week.
