Severe Weather Outlook
Issued on Friday, June 12th. 4 PM.
🚗 Saturday is a travel day for me. I will be returning from Chicago. I will be traveling from 7 AM to 2 PM 🚗
As always, monitor updated forecasts. Some questions remain about Saturday's weather.
The good news is that overall, the severe weather risk is fairly limited. The primary concern will be a few reports of high winds.
Otherwise, heavy downpours and lightning. As is typical for June.
Be prepared for thunderstorms on Saturday, Saturday night, and Sunday morning. Ending west to east on Sunday morning.
WHAT: Strong thunderstorms. There is a risk that some of the storms will produce pockets of 50+ mph winds. Locally heavy downpours. Frequent lightning. Campers (and others) should remain aware of the concerns.
I can't rule out some severe thunderstorm warnings being issued. The tornado risk is very low.
WHEN: There is a 40% confidence that there will be a round of storms between 8 AM and 2 PM. It is possible that additional storms continue into the late afternoon hours. Moving in from southeast Missouri. Moving east southeast into Illinois, Kentucky, and Tennessee.
There is an 80% confidence in additional thunderstorms on Saturday night.
There is a chance that the morning storms remain a bit farther south. That would mean southern Missouri, extreme southern Illinois, western Kentucky, and northwest Tennessee. Northern portions of southeast Missouri and northern portions of southern Illinois may have a lower risk during the morning hours.
All areas should monitor the radars throughout the day.
There is a significant difference in Saturday morning's data. Some data show no thunderstorms. I am leaning towards a complex of thunderstorms moving in from the west-northwest Saturday morning.
WHERE: Southeast Missouri, southern Illinois, western Kentucky, and northwest Tennessee.
CALL TO ACTION: As always, have multiple ways of receiving severe weather information. Tomorrow is a travel day for me. I will do my best to cover the event if there are morning storms. We are driving from 7 AM to 1:30 PM. I will do my best.
Don't forget that I partnered with www.tornadocall.com and that service will call you if a severe thunderstorm warning or tornado warning is issued.

Shower and thunderstorm chances will increase on Saturday.
There is some disagreement on a morning round and then another round during the afternoon and overnight hours.
For planning purposes, monitor updates on Saturday. A round of thunderstorms can not be ruled out before noon. Then, increase chances later in the day and overnight.
Here are the % chances of rain for Saturday night and Sunday.
You can see on Sunday that the rain is moving out of the region.
June 12, 2026
We are waking up to mild temperatures. A bit humid.
Showers and thunderstorms will push out of the region this morning.
The second image is the dew point map. Dew points are what make it feel muggier.
June 12, 2026
Rain will end this morning north to south. Pushing out of the area by late morning.
Dry tonight.
Thunderstorm chances increase on Saturday.
