There is a chance of severe weather on Monday. While not all of the ingredients are coming together, enough are coming together that we need to be on guard. Here are the bullet points as of this morning:
- It's going to rain on Sunday (tomorrow), but that is not a big concern.
- Monday: We have a MEDIUM threat for severe weather.
- TIMING is 5:00 PM to 11:00 PM (this may change)
- Greatest threat is high wind.
- While a lower threat, hail and tornadoes are very possible.
- Slightly greater threat may stay south of Region 8.
- Check the settings on your Region 8 weather app to make sure you have the location and alert settings set to your preference.
- Check the batteries in your weather radio.
- There is no need to cancel plans, just have a plan in case the storms get severe.
We have some showers and storms that will be moving through on Sunday, but the environment will not be conducive for severe weather. Monday, the instability increases. At this time, it does not get outrageously high, but that combined with the wind shear is making us concerned. Here's a parameter that combines the instability and the wind sheer. You can see how the environment becomes increasingly more unstable through the day on Monday:
We will watch it closely and give you updates over the next 2 days. Stay in tough with the Region 8 StormTEAM.
