So correct me if I'm wrong but those going to the game/s tonight should be able to get there if they're early, without much more than rain?

To cancel softball practice or not to cancel softball practice, that is the question!

Surprised that severe warning near Springfield isn’t tagged “tornado possible.” It’s starting to wrap up pretty good
edit: just went tornado warned

The local stations down here are doing a great job of coverage.

I would expect damage reports coming out of Fair Grove, MO soon.

That little bulge that lead to the TOR rode right up that boundary south of Springfield.

What do velocities look like on that cell? Looks pretty nasty. Wish there was a free site to see velocities.

Getting brighter here but still haven't seen anything resembling clear sun. Temp is up to 66 on my thermometer. And the wind has picked up (again) in the last hour or so. Unless the temp really jumps, either from the sun coming out or the frontal jump it just doesn't have the "feel" of anything strong severe here.

I all but guarantee it. |

Thinking this should be TOR warned... Yep... should be. It's head directly towards Bennett Springs State Park. |

This might be a bit overcooked, but this sounding off the latest HRRR over the metro is worrisome  |

May 21, 1949.....tornado in cape girardeau. Last known deadly tornado in that town to my awareness. Total death toll ultimately ended up being 23.

Here's the latest sat image. Convective debris is dissipating, but we can see where boundary lies separating the stable and unstable air masses. North of my blue line is characterized by stable wave clouds while south features cumulus. We should see a transition to more cumulus across southeastern MO as this outflow gets "cooked", the effective warm front lifts north, and instability builds. But as you can see we still have a ways to go.

Ya what a weird setup. It doesn't scream "severe" today, to me. But other elements are coming into play i guess that will make this line severe?? I sure hope we all get a nice intense line of storms later. Not deadly, just intense. |

Warm front slowly making progress Wow, yes it does! Almost seems like these storms are waaaaaaay out ahead of the cold front?? |

Shouldn’t we have some Thunderstorm Watch’s up by now?

Southerly low level flow and heating are going to help push the warm front north. The question is how far does it get before the line arrives?
Where ever it ends up just south of there probably has the best chance of severe weather with good instability and enhanced helicity

The line is starting to look pretty healthy. There was/is a confirmed tornado along I-44 northeast of Springfield.

Per the NWS, discussing the issuance of a Tornado Watch for much of the CWA, locations south of I-70 continue to destabilize.

My daughter's choir was slated to sing at the game tonight - Cardinals brass postponed till tomorrow due to severe potential. Thank God. Now I can be home safely...AND watch the Blues!
