Severe Weather Potential For Tues 24th thru 26th

As we have been talking about ..the chances for severe weather are going to be with us pretty much thru the beginning and middle portion of this week.

Current thinking is that the low pressure will go from Southern OK to NW Indiana and then NNE from there. The trough should take on a neutral to negative tilt and with the height falls ahead of the system this should become a severe weather maker across a large portion of the region.

By thursday this will produce a cold front pushing across the east and should bring an end to the severe weather chances with it culminating on the east coast on Thursday.

However, between now and then severe weather will be possible in and across the region as highlighted on the map below but if you are in the east your greatest chances are going to be Wednesday-thursday!

Severe weather aspects to expect will be winds in excess of 65 mph , along with hail that can be as large as 2 inches and the potential for tornados as well.

We have already issued a map for Sunday and monday. We will issue a map for each day tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday as we get closer to each daily event!

Stay tuned and stay safe!
