The tornado warnings this morning were really questionable in my opinion. None of the couplets were remotely impressive.... And the TDS signatures I believe were questionable. Using the ingredients approach for qLCS tornadoes...it just dud not seem to check all of the boxes. That said, I understand why they went with tornado warnings... But if it were me, I think I would have gone with severe thunderstorm warnings and a tor possible tag. I assume they went with tornado due to the event happening in the overnight hours and most alerts out over the cell phones nowadays. I know that’s what woke me up this morning because I didn’t think the weather radio was needed last night.

With the heavy amt of rain, it wont take as much wind to knock down trees. I agree with brtn that its a different set up tonight. But not really knowing how the cold front is going to interact with the remnant boundaries, i am concerned.

I expect a steadily moving MCS with a fair amount of stratiform rain behind the line...1 to 2 of additional rain in some spots.

I actually think the SPC outlook is pretty well placed. Saint Louis has always been on the Eastern fringe of the severe potential for this evening. That is even more true after this morning's activity.

That cluster is actually getting stronger as it crashes into the Ozarks and it is really booking it. Looks like the nasty bit will stay well SW as expected but keep an eye on what could develop out in front of it along the outflow.

Looks to be a line of storms setting up generally along the same area as the storms from this morning. That could be really bad news if they continue to intensify and start training again.

I did notice the last couple frames the radar has it weakening as it's about to hit me in DeSoto. I'm glad to see that. The Thunder even sounds Wicked. Real sharp crisp short booms from the west. nothing really rolling except a few rumbles from the northern pop ups.

I guess the thunderstorm warning was dropped I seen the counties in light blue but I didn't see the severe weather statement. on the radar it still has me highlighted as being under a warning.

Now that was a rapid weakening of a line of storms... at least what came into my area.

Starting to question the idea of widespread convection dveloping across MO this evening...the MCS was slower to move through than forecast and has stabilized the airmass behind it considerably. And looking at water vapor there isn't any significant shortwaves upstream to interact with the boundary. So I guess we'll see...

I’d be happy if we missed any more rain this week. Already two days behind schedule on the mowing list and it’s a holiday weekend coming up.

St.louis metro get severe later. We missed the mcs with not as much stabilizing effects MUCAPE is <1000j/kg across the northern 2/3rds of MO...there's just not much instability left to work with.
