UPDATE ON SEVERE THREAT

The Storm Prediction Center has included us in the SLIGHT risk category for tonight. We have an elevated risk for wind damage tonight and a risk for an isolated weak tornado. A MODERATE risk for severe weather has been upgraded in Southern Indiana. Here, there is a higher possibility of a tornado, a very high risk for wind damage, and a risk for large hail. This increase in threat is a direct result of surface CAPE forecast to be farther north. This increase instability means that the thunderstorms will be stronger than they would have been. I believe my thunderstorm map 2 posts ago will hold up. The timing is still the same (between 11-2a.m.)

Meanwhile, places in Dixie Alley will see a high risk for a tornado. Here, strong and long-lived tornadoes are likely.
