Our multi-day stretch of severe weather is underway, and today and tomorrow have the greatest potential for significant severe storms.

Today, supercells are expected to develop late this afternoon ahead of a dryline and along a warm front lifting northward into the northwest Texas/western Oklahoma vicinity. Should storms be surface-based, they will pose a risk for all hazards, including tornadoes (some strong). SPC has outlined an Enhanced Risk (level 3/5) to cover these threats.

Tomorrow, the severe weather threat is expected to be more widespread, with an Enhanced Risk (level 3/5) from western Missouri/eastern Kansas down into Oklahoma. Uncertainty remains regarding if storms will fire, especially with southern extent, but should supercells develop, they will pose a risk for all hazards, including strong tornadoes. Convective initiation is most likely closer to the cold front across northern portions of the risk area.
