Cold front as of 3 Z was approaching western Ohio and you can also see now that places like NW ARK ..North Central Tx and Oklahoma are now in the cool sector . So we feel that the severe weather at these locations is pretty much a done deal do to being on the other side of the front now.
Now as we have been talking about for days we talked about another piece of energy diving into the trough from the rockies and you can see this very clearly by the spin on the radar above which is just to the North of Oklahoma.
It is this piece of energy that is going to cause the trough in the central USA to take on a negative tilt and this piece of energy will begin to lift off towards the Great Lakes. As it does so it is going to create another day or two of severe weather out ahead of that advancing cold front.
Red Zone is the Hot Spots zone and yellow zone is also where you can expect to see severe weather.
The whole outlined area runs the risk of damaging winds in excess of 65 mph..Large hail and the potential for tornados. Now when looking at the map please keep climatology in mind when you think about tornados. Climatology places the greatest chance for these to the south. However..those further north could also see tornado’s as well but the main threats should be straight line winds and or hail.
No matter how you slice it or dice it folks..its going to be a pretty nasty day…
