Good morning everyone! The Storm prediction Center in Norman, OK has issued a day 2 moderate risk for severe weather for portions of Arkansas, Mississippi, Missouri, and Tennessee. The latest information suggests that a strong surface low will pass over the region Thursday afternoon. With surface dew points in the 60's and a low level jet stream flow of 60 knots storms will begin to fire along the dry line/cold front early Thursday afternoon and continue in to the evening and overnight hours. This is a dangerous setup for those residing in the area as they are forecasting potentially "strong" tornadoes which they define as EF2 or greater on the enhanced Fujita scale. The next outlook is due out at 11:30AM Central time. I will be updating quite frequently throughout the event so please stay tuned for further updates. Have a great day!
