We’ve got rain in the forecast today, maybe a few thunderstorms even this afternoon. The rain chances increase as we get later in the and evening. A mild start to the day with temperatures in the low 50’s. Because of the cloud cover and rain we’ll probably only get into the upper 50’s today. There is a slight risk of severe weather out to our west this afternoon, close to our western fringes so we’ll be watching StormTracker through the day. Rain chances increase tonight, we could end up with as much of a half of an inch of rain before the rain leaves the plateau tomorrow morning. A cold front is coming through tonight but tomorrow should be warm again, with a little sunshine we could get in the low 60’s. Below are the forecasted highs for today:
Well, while severe weather is one our mind, I just couldn’t help to share with you guys my experience at Busch Stadium in St. Louis during the July 19, 2006 Derecho. Click my name to read my educational and very interesting article.
I have a great idea for the news 2 team. Stop forecasting 5 days ahead and rename your forecast ” accucast” This would be a 3 day forecast. I t would be a better forecast than a 5 day that you change everyday.
Just a thought
Hey Jason I hope a Tornado picks your house up and takes you to LALA land.

…THERE IS A SLGT RISK OF SVR TSTMS ACROSS THE MID SOUTH…
…MID SOUTH…
CONDITIONAL SEVERE THUNDERSTORM THREAT WILL DEVELOP LATER TODAY AND
TONIGHT INTO PORTIONS OF THE MID SOUTH AHEAD OF WEAKENING…
POSITIVELY-TILTED UPPER TROUGH NOW MOVING ACROSS THE SRN ROCKIES.
SHEAR WILL BECOME QUITE STRONG AS REGION IS OVERSPREAD BY WSWLY H5
WINDS FROM 60-90 KT /160+ KT AT H25/ THROUGH THE AFTERNOON.
HOWEVER…ORIENTATION OF UPPER TROUGH WILL MAINTAIN WSWLY H85 WINDS
AND SPREAD MID/HIGH LEVEL CLOUDS ACROSS THIS REGION TODAY. THIS
WILL IN TURN STRENGTHEN A CAP AS FEED OF ELEVATED MIXED LAYER IS
ADVECTED ENEWD INTO THE LOWER/MID MS RIVER VALLEY. THE ENHANCED
CAPPING ATOP MODEST LOW LEVEL MOISTURE RETURN / SFC DEW POINTS
INCREASING INTO THE LOWER/MID 50S F / SUGGEST CONVECTION MAY AWAIT
ARRIVAL OF SFC-H85 COLD FRONT MOVING SSEWD INTO THE MID SOUTH
BETWEEN 00-03Z.
TIMING OF THUNDERSTORM INITIATION MAY FOLLOW PEAK HEATING AND
FORECAST SOUNDINGS NEAR THE TIME CAP ERODES INDICATE PARCELS MAY
HAVE DIFFICULTY ROOTING INTO SHALLOW NOCTURNAL STABLE LAYER JUST
ABOVE THE SURFACE AFTER SUNSET. REGARDLESS…PRESENCE OF MARGINAL
TO MODERATE INSTABILITY…STEEP MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES AND STRONG
EFFECTIVE BULK SHEAR WARRANT AT LEAST A RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS
INCLUDING SUPERCELLS LATER TODAY AND THIS EVENING. IF GREATER
HEATING AND MOISTURE RETURN CAN DEVELOP FARTHER WEST INTO
AR…SEVERE THREAT MAY DEVELOP SOONER THAN CURRENTLY EXPECTED WITH A
GREATER RISK OF SURFACE-BASED SUPERCELLS. ALSO…NOCTURNAL STABLE
LAYER IS FORECAST TO BE QUITE SHALLOW EARLY THIS EVENING NEAR
FRONTAL PASSAGE. THEREFORE…WIND DAMAGE/TORNADO POTENTIAL WILL
BEAR CLOSE MONITORING WITH ANY SUSTAINED STORM AS STORM-SCALE
PROCESSES AND MECHANICAL LIFTING NEAR THE FRONT MAY BE ABLE TO
ROOT/MIX BOUNDARY LAYER SUFFICIENTLY FOR SURFACE-BASED ACTIVITY.
RESULTANT SEVERE THREAT SHOULD SPREAD SSEWD AND DIMINISH TOWARDS THE
TN VALLEY THROUGH THE EVENING AS ACTIVITY MOVES INTO GREATER
STABILITY AND BECOMES INCREASINGLY ELEVATED.

hey, jason, for your ‘accucast’ weather forcast, take a look at the 5-day, and ignore the last two days…it magically turns into a 3-day forcast.
LOL TRACIE OMG GIRLFRIEND BURN!!!!!
If he wants a 3 day forecast yay thats what the little F%$ker should do lol.
Tracie nice post for a bit(h. The reason I posted that was the 5 day get changed every day no point in forecasting that far out. To whatever I would look at the sky more often if I was you. What your asking for may just come your way.
jason, i don’t understand what you are saying. calm down and re-write what you meant. it’s just sounds like crazy talk on this end.
Yikes! i just meant a more accurate 3-day is already in their current method…
Most people think i’m a pretty nice person.
Jason is a misfit who doesn’t belong.
WHAT EVER.
