Good afternoon, everyone. It's time for another briefing on what's going on with our regional Weather. We'll break it down by days just like before.
Tuesday 04/07/15
In case you were unaware, the Storm Prediction Center (SPC) has updated the Categorical Outlook. With those changes, there are a couple of small patches that don't really affect our forecast area. However, there's a chance that the more Southerly patch of Slight chance for Severe Weather could trickle Northward toward us. Regardless of the Slight risk zone to our South, we're still under a Marginal threat of seeing Thunderstorms (likely non-severe). Here's a look

This is still the big day to be watching. We're over 24 hours out until potentially big weather, and the SPC has updated the Categorical & Probabilistic graphics for Wednesday. Damaging Winds & Large Hail are the big threats, but with a Significant Severe area (black hatched area) highlighted in the Probabilistic Outlook, we would not be surprised for some isolated strong Tornadoes.
There's also quite a large zone under the Moderate risk zone, as well as the Slight risk zone. Please take a few minutes to check out these graphics, as there's a very broad risk for nasty Weather on the horizon. Please, we really are urging people to make sure they are every bit Weather Aware all day tomorrow.

Thursday 04/09/15
It's looking like only the very Eastern side of our forecast area is slated for any Severe Weather on Thursday afternoon. However, the early AM hours of Thursday could see the remnants of whatever moves through on Wednesday. If you happen to be traveling out toward St. Louis though, you might see a repeat of Wednesday's Weather.

Tomorrow, we intend to put out a morning update solely for the purposes of discussing the day's events. Please be sure to check that out, as it will be pretty time-sensitive. It's supposed to be a very active day, and so will we.
Speaking of which, for any Amateur Radio folks out there, you should tune into the SKYWARN frequencies in your area tomorrow if there area any repeaters near you! Additionally, you can also check out the often-used SKYWARN simplex frequency, 146.550 Mhz.
If you have any questions about Weather Apps / how to set them up or Weather Radios / how to program them, let us know today. We'll do what we can to answer your questions
