Severe Weather Information Thread

I will be with family this afternoon. I will also be monitoring the weather.

If you experience severe weather, then please post the information in the comments. I will pass that along to the National Weather Service.

Be specific in location and what type of severe weather (damage, no damage, large branches, small branches, trees down, wind estimate, and so on).

I would not cancel any plans today. Simply monitor the Beau Dodson Weather app and go about your day.

It is nearly impossible to answer the question "I have an event at 6 PM in Mt. Vernon, will it storm"

Random summer storms will pop up and dissipate. Same as the last few days. A more organized system is possible this evening.

Some activities will be impacted. That includes some fireworks displays.

Monitor the live weather radars and live lightning data. I will post links in the comment section.

Thunderstorms are bubbling up.

Some of the storms later this afternoon could become severe. The concern will be damaging wind and frequent lightning. Torrential downpours, as well. Typical for summer thunderstorms.

We are not currently concerned about tornadoes or large hail.

Some severe thunderstorm warnings are likely. Possible some flood advisories if storms linger in one spot.

I am monitoring a complex of thunderstorms in western Missouri that will push into our region this evening and tonight.

Stay weather aware.

HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY!!!!!

Don't cancel or change plans. Get out there and enjoy the day.

Some of today will be dry. Storm chances ramp up this afternoon and evening.

Otherwise, some pop-ups are likely in the heat of the afternoon/evening, as well.

1. Monitor the Beau Dodson Weather App for alerts
2. Monitor the live weather radars and the live lightning data (see links in the comments)
3. If storm clouds threaten and/or you hear thunder, then check my weather app (or other). See what is forming.
4. Keep in mind, storms may move in odd directions. Same as the last three days.
5. Stay weather aware.

Hot and muggy today. Hydrate, as always. 🙂

We have been upgraded to a level one and two severe weather risk today. This is issued by NOAA/SPC.

Yellow is level two. Marginal is the level one (lowest). Light green is where storms may occur, but probably below severe levels.

As always, don't get caught up in where the colors are exactly placed. Follow the forecast.

The forecast is that some of the thunderstorms this afternoon and tonight could produce torrential rain, damaging wind, and hail.

Some severe thunderstorm warnings are possible.

We aren't quite sure, yet, just how much coverage of storms there will be. Thus, just stay informed.

Have a great Saturday and Saturday night!!!

Happy Independence Day

Another hot and muggy day ahead of us!

Scattered thunderstorms are again possible. Mainly this afternoon into mid-evening.

I would not cancel any plans. Simply monitor updated forecasts.

Any storms that form could produce heavy rain, gusty winds, and lightning. I can't rule out a few severe thunderstorm warnings.

Campers should always be aware of lightning.

If storm clouds threaten, then load the live weather radars and live lightning data (links in the comments).

Thunderstorm may continue into the mid-evening hours. Not everywhere, but scattered.

Warm and humid tonight.
