According to the SPC, DCAPE is 1600 and Derecho composites are around 6. Im not trying to hype anything up, but thats very supportive of a damaging wind event

The turn is taking place and this storm is definitely coming South down the river. Starting to see some forced Q development North of metro Saint Louis

SPC Outlook is out. Trimmed back Marginal in Missouri, did not expand Slight Risk much further south, more of a shift into Illinois.

It looks like this MCS has a substantial upwind propagation vector to it. The mean flow vector is slightly east of the Mississippi River line. The upwind propagation vector is bent across the Mississippi River at a 75 degree angle right now. You can tell it is upwind propagating because the cells on the upwind side (southwest flank) are very robust right now. You can even see the cells are being reinforced in this area building more and more southwest ever so slightly. In a nutshell, this MCS has been propagating right of the mean flow and it's hard to deny at this point that the metro area could be in the path. We'll see how this plays out.

Southern area of that line is starting to look real mean...

From the SPC disco:
Observational data suggest that the small but long-lived convective system now propagating southeastward into northeastern Missouri and west central Illinois may finally be in the process of weakening, in the presence of increasing inhibition and weakening supporting forcing for ascent. Strongest convection now appears to be an evolving cell on the southwestern-most flank of the system. It is not certain that this will be maintained, but the latest High Resolution Rapid Refresh suggests renewed development and upscale growth might not be out of the question south southeastward in the vicinity of the Mississippi River later this afternoon and evening.

I think we need excessive heat warning i am 97 so 81. And tomorrow may break 100 if we heat up as fast as we did today

It does seem to be petering out a bit but we should still be affected by it to some degree.

It may collapse it is hot in the upper levels Not likely with all the humidity to juice it up even more

That was close...I didn't think they were ever going to pull the trigger on the 'Excessive Heat Warning". It is miserable outside. Hopefully, Gulf Shores, AL and body surfing will take my mind off of this heat.

The western flank looks like it may want to be more supercell in structure. May see an increase in the hail threat.

There’s the watch for the metro. That southern flank is starting to look really healthy

Small cells seem to be developing just ahead of the SW corner and then merging in to the main MCS

How big is the hail in the western flank? Are we talking broken car windows?

We’re in the watch, but it sure looks like it’s going to miss us.

Looks like it'll miss me east, unless more development happens west.
