Storms likely Thursday night — Models think no storms today. The atmosphere would support severe weather today if storms could get going, but the last several runs show nothing happening.

But tomorrow/Thursday night a storm complex should drop down I-24 from Kentucky, aka an “I-24 Special.” These are usually dog stressors and noisemakers, with a lightning lottery.

HRRR model has a line of storms 8-9 PM (that’s sus, but we’re watching it) then a noisy line of lightningstorms with straight line wind risk pours in after midnight into the wee hours Friday morning:

Tornado risk appears to be in MO/IL/Far W KY, where large hail may be an issue.

Our hazards are heavy rain and frequent lightning with a low probability damaging straight line wind threat.

More later today when the intern pulls up with updated information.
