Forecast Discussion - April 15, 2024 - Multi-Day Severe Weather Outbreak Begins Today

Ғылым және технология

For educational purposes only. If you live in the affected areas, please stay tuned to your local National Weather Service office for the most accurate and up-to-date information.
An outbreak of severe weather is expected to begin today across the Plains before shifting east into the Midwest/Mid-South tomorrow and Wednesday. The SPC has outlined an Enhanced Risk (level 3/5) across southern South Dakota and much of Nebraska down into western Kansas. Supercells are expected to fire in multiple areas by early evening, including ahead of the surface low/along the warm front and along the dryline. Very large hail is possible, and an intense low-level jet will yield a strong tornado threat with any discrete supercells from central Nebraska into southwest Kansas.
The threat shifts east on Tuesday; the SPC has outlined an Enhanced Risk (level 3/5) for parts of Iowa, Missouri, and Illinois. As long as destabilization and storm mode cooperate, supercells with very large hail and tornadoes, perhaps strong, are possible in this area. A separate area of severe storms may occur along the stalled Pacific front across eastern Oklahoma and western Arkansas. What happens on Tuesday will modulate what happens on Wednesday, but severe storms are possible on Wednesday across Indiana, Ohio, Kentucky, and a small sliver of Tennessee.

    As expected this is gonna be the significant event that was hinting a few days ago. Man the hail is gonna be nuts and the tornado risk is gonna be pretty much just a good I think. These brrroooad 5% usually over-perform well but Tuesday.....that's the day to really eye on. Actually I think both days will be pretty good tornado producers overall. I get models were kind of being strange on this but the dew points are well in place for something to go pretty substantial in KS tonight and NE. Pretty sure we will see a decent tornado outbreak on both days.....actually even Wednesday is trending to be a pretty hot day for all hazards again in the OH River Valley. This truly is trending to be an unreal April-June. It's actually amazing how much discrete potential the models are now showing next 2 days. This has actually he best chance so far to see very strong and powerful tornadoes so far and honestly....all the boxes are in place for it. I will also not be surprised is this ceiling for today is a poor man's April 2012.

    Your videos are always so awesome! Not sure about this one. My target area is Eastern IA/Western IL. I am a little apprehensive about chasing given that I chased the mod risk area South Indy into Ohio a little bit ago. That was a bust. I always do my own forecasting but didn't for that one and trusted the models. Also, forecast hodographs aren't very impressive.

    Hey, I watched through the video. Most of it is far over my head. In the HRRR on Tuesday, there seems to be a quick and strong spin up near Little Rock, AR. Do you think that will be accurate? I've got interpreters going home around that time and I've been trying to decide if we need to let them go home early.
