Well, that day escalated quickly. Will have to look back at why winds in the St Louis metro and areas east stayed backed and thus enhanced our low-level shear parameters. But that is absolutely why storms started spinning when they got into the metro.

Confidence is quite high in severe storms moving through the St. Louis metro right around the late afternoon rush hour tomorrow (2-5pm). Damaging winds to 70mph and a few short lived tornadoes are all possible. Stay alert tomorrow !

As this event winds down, attention turns now to Thursday. Looking more interesting with each run as a line of storms looks to move through during the afternoon.

Honest question - how is it possible to accidentally leave your blinker on for minutes while driving? It BLINKS and makes NOISE. How are you that distracted as a driver?

I remember feeling this way from the 2017 eclipse too - eclipses are very humbling. Makes you realize how truly small any one person is in this universe.
