MD 0361 CONCERNING TORNADO WATCH 99... FOR PORTIONS OF NORTHEASTERN ILLINOIS AND NORTHWESTERN INDIANA
Mesoscale Discussion 0361
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0540 PM CDT Wed Apr 02 2025
Areas affected...Portions of northeastern Illinois and northwestern
Indiana
Concerning...Tornado Watch 99...
Valid 022240Z - 030015Z
The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 99 continues.
SUMMARY...Favorable corridor for tornadoes and damaging winds is
evident over the northern portion of Tornado Watch 99 from northeast
Illinois into northwest Indiana through at least 00Z.
DISCUSSION...A band of supercell clusters are tracking northeastward
from northeastern Illinois into northwestern Indiana. These storms,
along with warm-advection-driven evolving convection to the east,
are moving into an environment characterized by lower 60s dewpoints
and large clockwise-curved low-level hodographs (around 500 m2/s2
0-500m SRH per IWX VWP) along/south of the warm front draped across
northern Indiana. Despite a somewhat messy mode, this environment
may support an uptick in the intensity of supercell clusters over
the next hour or two, with an accompanying risk of tornadoes and
damaging wind gusts. Any supercells that can organize/intensify in
this zone would be capable of producing a strong tornado, though the
aforementioned mode evolution casts uncertainty in this scenario
unfolding at this time.

WW 101 TORNADO IL MO 022120Z - 030000Z
URGENT - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED
Tornado Watch Number 101
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
420 PM CDT Wed Apr 2 2025
The NWS Storm Prediction Center has issued a
* Tornado Watch for portions of
West Central Illinois
East Central Missouri
* Effective this Wednesday afternoon and evening from 420 PM
until 700 PM CDT.
* Primary threats include...
Several tornadoes and a couple intense tornadoes likely
Widespread large hail and scattered very large hail events to 2
inches in diameter likely
Widespread damaging wind gusts to 70 mph likely
SUMMARY...A line of severe thunderstorms will continue to track
eastward across the St Louis metro area and vicinity through the
next few hours, posing a risk of all severe hazards.
The tornado watch area is approximately along and 35 statute miles
east and west of a line from 65 miles northeast of Alton IL to 45
miles south southwest of Farmington MO. For a complete depiction of
the watch see the associated watch outline update (WOUS64 KWNS
WOU1).
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
REMEMBER...A Tornado Watch means conditions are favorable for
tornadoes and severe thunderstorms in and close to the watch
area. Persons in these areas should be on the lookout for
threatening weather conditions and listen for later statements
and possible warnings.
&&
OTHER WATCH INFORMATION...CONTINUE...WW 98...WW 99...WW 100...
AVIATION...Tornadoes and a few severe thunderstorms with hail
surface and aloft to 2 inches. Extreme turbulence and surface wind
gusts to 60 knots. A few cumulonimbi with maximum tops to 500. Mean
storm motion vector 24040.

MD 0363 CONCERNING TORNADO WATCH 98... FOR PORTIONS OF THE MID-SOUTH
Mesoscale Discussion 0363
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0612 PM CDT Wed Apr 02 2025
Areas affected...Portions of the Mid-South
Concerning...Tornado Watch 98...
Valid 022312Z - 030045Z
The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 98 continues.
SUMMARY...Numerous discrete supercells are intensifying in a very
favorable environment for strong to intense tornadoes across the
Mid-South.
DISCUSSION...Numerous discrete right-moving supercells are
intensifying across the open warm sector in the Mid-South as of 23Z.
The NQA VWP depicts very large, clockwise-curved hodographs with
ample streamwise vorticity for these storms (around 330 m2/s2 0-500m
SRH). Given a moist/unstable boundary layer, ample low-level shear,
and the well-established discrete supercells, several strong to
intense tornadoes are possible through this corridor over the next
couple hours.

MD 0362 CONCERNING SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH POSSIBLE FOR PARTS OF MIDDLE TENNESSEE THROUGH CENTRAL KENTUCKY
Mesoscale Discussion 0362
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0609 PM CDT Wed Apr 02 2025
Areas affected...parts of middle Tennessee through central Kentucky
Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible
Valid 022309Z - 030115Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...60 percent
SUMMARY...The risk for strong to severe convection, including
supercells, posing a risk for damaging wind gusts and tornadoes may
increase through 9-11 PM EDT. Trends are being monitored for the
possibility of a watch.
DISCUSSION...A clustering of discrete thunderstorm development,
likely supported by forcing associated with broad low-level warm
advection, and perhaps a weak perturbation within the strong
southwesterly flow aloft, probably will continue developing
northeastward within a slowly moistening boundary layer across the
Mid South into lower Ohio Valley. This activity still appears
embedded within a broadly anticyclonic low-level regime across
northwestern Mississippi through western and middle Tennessee, but
the Rapid Refresh suggests that surface pressure falls may lead to
weak troughing across south central through east central Kentucky by
01-02Z. It appears that this will coincide with substantive further
strengthening of low-level flow (50-70+ kt around 850 mb). If
inhibition does not become suppressive to convection, with the onset
of diurnal cooling, the risk for tornadoes and damaging wind gusts
may increase through mid to late evening.

TN...nrn through swrn AR and adjacent ne TX
Concerning...Tornado Watch 98...
Valid 022235Z - 030030Z
The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 98 continues.
SUMMARY...A couple of long-lived supercells posing the risk of
producing strong tornadoes appear possible across northwestern
Louisiana and southern/eastern Arkansas through 7-9 PM CDT.
Otherwise, potential for damaging wind gusts and brief tornadoes may
slowly increase with a slowly east-southeastward advancing squall
line.
DISCUSSION...Thunderstorm development has become extensive within a
pre-frontal confluent zone, from the Ark-La-Tex into southern
Illinois. Outflow has generated an elongated surface cold pool,
which remains largely parallel to the 50-60 kt southwesterly
deep-layer mean flow. It appears that this includes a 60+ kt 850 mb
jet core, which is forecast to continue to nose across the Mid South
between the Greater Memphis area and southwestern Kentucky through
early evening.
Gradually, with further strengthening of the surface cold pool,
north-northeastward surging segments of the associated cold front
may become better defined, with radar reflectivities taking on more
organized line echo wave structures. Developing embedded meso
vortices may be accompanied by increasing potential for damaging
surface gusts and perhaps a few tornadoes.
Otherwise, isolated, discrete thunderstorm development is ongoing
within a corridor of surface pressure falls (near 2 mb 2-hourly)
within the pre-frontal surface trough across northern Louisiana
through eastern Arkansas. Embedded within a seasonably moist
boundary layer, characterized by moderately large CAPE, and an
environment with large, clockwise-curved low-level hodographs, a
couple of long-lived supercells with potential to produce strong
tornadoes appears possible into the 00-02Z time frame.
