🚗 Today is a travel day for me.
A warm and humid day ahead of us. Some morning patchy fog.
I would not cancel morning and early afternoon plans. I would, however, encourage you to monitor the radars.
Thunderstorms will develop today and tonight.
A few storms today and tonight could produce heavy rain, frequent lightning, and strong wind gusts. A few severe thunderstorm warnings are possible.
The tornado risk is low.
Scattered thunderstorms will increase today. Especially this afternoon and evening.
Then, another round is possible tonight if the morning round doesn't wash the atmosphere out.
There remain significant questions on the timing of showers and thunderstorms today. I am struggling with the timing questions.
It appears that chances increase between 11 AM and 3 PM in southeast Missouri and southern Illinois.
Then, with time, into western Kentucky and Tennessee.
The best plan today is to monitor the live weather radars. Links in the comment section.
Rain will taper off on Sunday from west to east as we move through the morning hours.
I am watching Wednesday's weather, as well. Another round of strong storms is possible.
Saturday, June 13, 2026
🚗 Today is a travel day for me.
A mild morning. Dew points are lower north and higher south.
It feels stickier where the dew points are higher.
Thunderstorms will develop later today. There remain some questions about timing. Chances are a bit higher over southern Illinois and southeast Missouri late this morning and early afternoon.
Then, the storms would spread east southeast.
A few storms could produce heavy rain, lightning, and strong winds.
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.
A few of the storms today could produce strong wind gusts. Nickel-sized hail, as well.
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 10 AM and 3 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 remain questions on the risk of thunderstorms before 2 PM this afternoon.
Chances may end up a bit higher over southeast Missouri and southern Illinois.
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 late Saturday morning into the afternoon hours.
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.
