WW 30 SEVERE TSTM KS MO 141915Z - 150000Z
URGENT - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED Severe Thunderstorm Watch Number 30 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 215 PM CDT Fri Mar 14 2025 The NWS Storm Prediction Center has issued a * Severe Thunderstorm Watch for portions of Eastern Kansas Western Missouri * Effective this Friday afternoon and evening from 215 PM until 700 PM CDT. * Primary threats include... Widespread damaging winds and isolated significant gusts to 80 mph likely Scattered large hail and isolated very large hail events to 2 inches in diameter possible A tornado or two possible SUMMARY...Thunderstorms will rapidly develop and move north-northeastward across eastern Kansas into western Missouri this afternoon. Widespread severe/damaging winds appear likely with this initial activity, along with some hail if supercells can become established. The tornado threat should remain fairly low for the next couple of hours, but a tornado or two may occur later with eastward extent towards central Missouri. The severe thunderstorm watch area is approximately along and 55 statute miles east and west of a line from 15 miles north northwest of Saint Joseph MO to 25 miles south southwest of Monett MO. For a complete depiction of the watch see the associated watch outline update (WOUS64 KWNS WOU0). PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

MD 0175 CONCERNING SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH LIKELY FOR EASTERN ARKANSAS INTO NORTHWEST MISSISSIPPI...WESTERN TENNESSEE...AND THE MISSOURI BOOTHEEL
Mesoscale Discussion 0175 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0650 PM CDT Fri Mar 14 2025 Areas affected...Eastern Arkansas into northwest Mississippi...western Tennessee...and the Missouri Bootheel Concerning...Severe potential...Watch likely Valid 142350Z - 150145Z Probability of Watch Issuance...80 percent SUMMARY...Thunderstorm development appears possible in the next 1-2 hours across eastern Arkansas. Storms are expected to intensify as they migrate east/northeast into adjacent portions of Mississippi, Missouri, and Tennessee. Watch issuance is likely as the severe threat becomes apparent (though timing is slightly uncertain). DISCUSSION...Recent GOES visible and low-level water-vapor imagery show a band of gradually deepening cumulus across eastern AR on the eastern fringe of a low-level theta-e axis where isentropic ascent is regionally greatest. A few orphan anvils and occasional lightning flashes have been noted within the last 10-30 minutes, suggesting that this may be the early stages of convective initiation that has been consistently depicted in recent HRRR solutions over the past few hours. However, thunderstorms further south across eastern LA that developed in a similar, if not a better from a thermodynamic perspective, convective environment have struggled to maintain intensity and organization over the past hour. Consequently, it remains somewhat uncertain whether robust convective initiation is imminent and how widespread storm coverage will be in the next few hours. Closer proximity to the primary upper trough may support stronger forcing for ascent and perhaps higher probability for successful convective initiation. If storms can develop and intensify, they will likely pose a threat for all convective hazards, including the potential for a strong tornado, given favorable buoyancy, deep-layer shear, and low-level SRH observed from KLZK and KNQA VWPs (the environment is also characterized by SCP values between 12-16 and STP values of 2-4, suggesting a robust convective environment). Convective trends will continue to be monitored, and watch issuance is likely if/when a severe threat begins to materialize. ..Moore/Mosier.. 03/14/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

MD 0174 CONCERNING TORNADO WATCH 32... FOR NORTHERN ARKANSAS...MISSOURI...AND INTO WESTERN ILLINOIS
Mesoscale Discussion 0174 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0600 PM CDT Fri Mar 14 2025 Areas affected...northern Arkansas...Missouri...and into western Illinois Concerning...Tornado Watch 32... Valid 142300Z - 150100Z The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 32 continues. SUMMARY...Severe risk -- largely in the form of very strong/damaging winds -- will continue over the next several hours, while risk for a few/potentially strong tornadoes will also persist, especially over southern portions of the WW. DISCUSSION...Latest radar loop shows a broken/complex band of storms moving across Missouri and adjacent northwestern Arkansas. The most intense convection is occurring from central Missouri southward, just ahead of the advancing cold front. While a dry/deeply mixed boundary layer is evident over northern Missouri, dewpoints increase gradually with southward extent across the watch. This suggests primary risk across northern portions of the watch remains very strong/damaging gusts, while tornado potential increases with southward extent, across the Ozarks. Additionally, strong southerly low-level flow will continue to advect moisture northward, so tornado potential should gradually increase northeastward, with time. ..Goss.. 03/14/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

WW 35 SEVERE TSTM IA IL MO LM 142355Z - 150700Z
URGENT - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED Severe Thunderstorm Watch Number 35 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 655 PM CDT Fri Mar 14 2025 The NWS Storm Prediction Center has issued a * Severe Thunderstorm Watch for portions of Eastern Iowa Northern Illinois Far Northeast Missouri Lake Michigan * Effective this Friday night and Saturday morning from 655 PM until 200 AM CDT. * Primary threats include... Scattered damaging winds and isolated significant gusts to 80 mph likely Scattered large hail and isolated very large hail events to 2 inches in diameter possible A tornado or two possible SUMMARY...Ongoing line of showers and thunderstorms is expected to progress quickly northeastward/eastward over the next several hours. Very strong low- to mid-level wind fields exist, supporting the potential for strong gust with any deeper, more sustained storms. Some isolated hail is possible as well. Dry low-levels are expected to keep the tornado potential very low, although still none zero given the strongly sheared environment. The severe thunderstorm watch area is approximately along and 50 statute miles north and south of a line from 25 miles southwest of Cedar Rapids IA to 45 miles east northeast of Marseilles IL. For a complete depiction of the watch see the associated watch outline update (WOUS64 KWNS WOU5). PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS... REMEMBER...A Severe Thunderstorm Watch means conditions are favorable for 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. Severe thunderstorms can and occasionally do produce tornadoes. && OTHER WATCH INFORMATION...CONTINUE...WW 30...WW 31...WW 32...WW 33...WW 34...
