Severe Weather???????

Right now, there is a slight chance of severe weather predicted for the Oklahoma/Texas area. It is too far out to know exact information.

You can view current weather and forecasts for an area at the National Weather Service site http://www.weather.gov/ Just type in the location or zipcode.

You can also keep check on severe weather/tornado risks at the Storm Prediction Center site http://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/exper/day4-8/

Per SPC ECMWF/GFS CONTINUE TO SUGGEST A PROGRESSIVE...ALBEIT

SLOW-MOVING...UPPER TROUGH WILL TRANSLATE ACROSS THE WRN U.S. INTO

THE PLAINS DURING THE MEDIUM RANGE PERIOD. LEADING EDGE OF STRONGER

FLOW ALOFT SHOULD SPREAD ACROSS THE LEE TROUGH/DRY LINE FROM WRN NEB

INTO WEST TX BY SUNDAY EVENING. ANY STORMS THAT DEVELOP ALONG THIS

BOUNDARY COULD POTENTIALLY ORGANIZE AS 500MB FLOW INCREASES IN

EXCESS OF 50-70KT. BY DAY5 STRONGER FORCING WILL SPREAD DOWNSTREAM

AND THE GREATEST SEVERE THREAT IS EXPECTED TO EXTEND FROM THE KS/OK

BORDER...SWWD INTO THE HILL COUNTRY OF TX. BEYOND DAY5 THERE IS

CONSIDERABLE UNCERTAINTY REGARDING THE SPEED/MOVEMENT OF THE UPPER

TROUGH...AS WELL AS CONVECTIVE MODE.

Models have shown a possible severe weather outbreak for Sunday/Monday for a week now without really changing so it's pretty likely to happen. The problem is knowing exactly when and where. As it grows closer, the forecasts will become more solid.

Basically anytime the SPC issues a risk area 4-8 days in advance, it's serious business. But since it's still based on models, your local weather stations aren't going to really go with it just yet. Give it another day or two.

A lot of times, NOAA's NWS Storm Prediction Center is ahead of time. They go into detail on severe storms. When the day of severe weather is expected, they tend to warn all weather services of the anticipated severe weather outbreak.

Yes it's possible. It's still a few days away yet, so the exact areas likely to be hit are still to be ironed out.

Stay tuned to NOAA and your local stations who will have coverage nearer the time!

i might would desire to declare that i do rejoice with intense climate, although I actual have by no ability experienced something like a tornado or hurricane. i admire extensive thunder storms as properly as blizzards considering that i discover them to be genuinely eye-catching.
