Worth keeping an eye on the same area tonight and tomorrow. Moderate risk for both days, with Saturday looking to be the more active of the two with "a substantial severe weather event" possible.

Yep, moderate risk. These can often get upgraded to severe. Should be interesting enough even at the moderate level though.

...SUMMARY...
SCATTERED TO PERHAPS WIDESPREAD THUNDERSTORMS MAY DEVELOP ACROSS
PORTIONS OF THE SOUTH-CENTRAL HIGH PLAINS TO NEAR THE RED
RIVER...MAINLY FROM MIDDAY THROUGH THIS EVENING. SOME OF THESE
STORMS WILL BECOME SEVERE...OFFERING DAMAGING WIND AND VERY LARGE
HAIL...ALONG WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR TORNADOES.

Yeah, I've seen 3 on the streams tonight. Was watching Chad Vandevers stream earlier when his truck got hit by a tree limb from a rain wrapped tornado, scary.

First time I ever saw one live, pretty amazing to be able to switch to viewing some lunatic driving through the middle of a supercell to another one a few miles away from one watching the same storm for a safe distance. Watching a twister drop from the cloud and touch down for real for the first time was a very surreal experience, i can certainly see the attraction in the chase.

Enhanced risk got upgraded to moderate. You might be lucky and catch another tornado on the chaser streams tonight. Numerous tornado watches issued already.

...SUMMARY...
SCATTERED SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WILL OCCUR OVER A BROAD SWATH ARCHING
FROM EASTERN SOUTH DAKOTA AND SOUTHERN MINNESOTA THROUGH THE
MID-MISSISSIPPI AND LOWER MISSOURI VALLEYS INTO THE OZARKS AND MUCH
OF CENTRAL AND SOUTH TEXAS. DAMAGING GUSTS...LARGE HAIL...AND A FEW
TORNADOES WILL OCCUR.

Hopefully some Mod risks for i get out there next month!!

Simon Gruber Says · 16-05-2015 4:45pm

I usually keep an eye on KFOR when there's activity in the Oklahoma City area as they get a chopper up chasing the storms and usually has a great view, if it doesn't rain wrapped. http://kfor.com/on-air/ios-live-streaming/

Very large tornado visible on Basehunters stream at the moment in Oklahoma https://tvnweather.com/live

A great arrival yesterday in Denver with 2 non mess cyclonic funnel clouds visible from car rentals while meeting the team. Even though it wasn't official chase day we still go under a nice gust front cell come evening time , saw my first lightning of the trip and an amazing double rainbow after.

Stayed in Liberal Kansas last night and about to leave in the next hour and head towards the risk in West Texas, Amarillo area.

Some photos so far.

Moderate risk tonight and tommorow, first in a good while. Up around the Minnesota, Wisconsin area tonight.

From the SPC

"WIDESPREAD SEVERE EVENT IS EXPECTED TO OCCUR LATE THIS AFTERNOON
INTO TONIGHT ACROSS THE UPPER MIDWEST. OTHER SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS
WILL BE POSSIBLE TODAY IN AREAS INCLUDING THE OHIO VALLEY AND
SOUTHEAST STATES.

...UPPER MS VALLEY...
CONDITIONS STILL APPEAR FAVORABLE FOR A WIDESPREAD SEVERE WEATHER
EVENT ACROSS PARTS OF THE UPPER MS VALLEY LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND
TONIGHT. MODIFIED MORNING RAOBS AND MODEL FORECAST SOUNDINGS SHOW A
RATHER LARGE AREA OF HIGH CAPE VALUES EXTENDING FROM THE EASTERN
DAKOTAS INTO PARTS OF MN/IA. THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO RAPIDLY
DEVELOP THIS AFTERNOON OVER EASTERN ND/NORTHWEST MN...WITH
SUPERCELLS LIKELY THE EARLY MODE. VERY LARGE HAIL AND ISOLATED
TORNADOES ARE POSSIBLE. BY MID EVENING...ONE OR MORE CLUSTERS OF
STORMS ARE EXPECTED TO CONGEAL INTO BOWING COMPLEXES THAT WILL TRACK
SOUTHEASTWARD ACROSS THE ENH/MDT RISK AREAS. GIVEN THE COMBINATION
OF HIGH CAPE AND INCREASINGLY STRONG WINDS ALOFT...THE POTENTIAL
EXISTS FOR A CORRIDOR OF WIDESPREAD DAMAGING WINDS OVER PARTS OF
MN/WI/NORTHEAST IA. UNCERTAINTY REMAINS HOW FAR SOUTHEAST THIS
CONVECTIVE SYSTEM WILL TRACK BEFORE WEAKENING LATE TONIGHT. IT IS
LIKELY TO TRACK AT LEAST INTO NORTHERN IL."

bnt · 13-07-2015 10:46am

For tornadoes, Illinois appears most at risk today:

(Map updates automatically.)

...SUMMARY...
MULTIPLE ROUNDS OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS CAPABLE OF DAMAGING WINDS...TORNADOES AND LARGE HAIL ARE LIKELY TODAY AND TONIGHT ACROSS MUCH OF THE MIDWEST...BUT ESPECIALLY ACROSS PORTIONS OF ILLINOIS...INDIANA...KENTUCKY AND SOUTHWEST OHIO.
