MD 1159 CONCERNING TORNADO WATCH 376... FOR PORTIONS OF SOUTHERN KENTUCKY INTO WESTERN AND MIDDLE TENNESSEE
Mesoscale Discussion 1159 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0555 PM CDT Fri Jun 06 2025 Areas affected...portions of southern Kentucky into western and middle Tennessee Concerning...Tornado Watch 376... Valid 062255Z - 070030Z The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 376 continues. SUMMARY...A couple instances of damaging gusts or hail may accompany the stronger storms across the remainder of Tornado Watch 376 and surrounding areas. A downstream WW issuance is not anticipated. DISCUSSION...An overall downward trend in storm intensity has been noted across portions of the TN Valley, including with storms that are moving across Tornado Watch 376. NLDN lightning data suggests that the frequency of lightning has begun decreasing, with echoes around 30 kft dropping below 40 dBZ over several locales. Furthermore, the preceding warm sector downstream of ongoing storms has experienced some degree of modification, which will also contribute to weakening trends. In the more immediate future (next hour or so), some of the stronger storms, especially those in western toward middle TN, have some warm-sector buoyancy left to ingest to support a couple instances of isolated, marginally severe wind and/or hail. ..Squitieri.. 06/06/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

Dam at Flathead Lake in Montana at minimum release

2 months 2 weeks ago
Unusually hot and dry conditions have made it necessary to keep operations at SKQ Dam at license-required minimums. Flathead Lake was being filled as aggressively as possible while avoiding flood control limits, but despite these actions, the lake will not reach full pool this summer. Energy Keepers expected the lake to reach peak levels on June 19 and then begin dropping. KPAX (Missoula, Mont.), June 5, 2025
