...OUTBREAK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER PARTS OF THE OHIO AND
MIDDLE MISSISSIPPI VALLEY REGION AND SOUTHERN GREAT LAKES REGION FOR
THE REMAINDER OF TODAY INTO TONIGHT...

The NWS Storm Prediction Center in Norman, OK is forecasting an
outbreak of severe thunderstorms, including strong tornadoes,
widespread damaging winds, and large hail, over parts of the Ohio
and middle Mississippi Valley region and southern Great Lakes region
for the remainder of today into tonight.

The areas most likely to experience this activity include:

eastern Illinois
Indiana
southern Lower Michigan
western Ohio

Elsewhere, severe storms are also possible from parts of Wisconsin,
Iowa, Missouri, Arkansas, Mississippi, Alabama, and Tennessee
northeastward across much of the Appalachians to the lower Great
Lakes and southern New England.

Numerous fast-moving thunderstorms, capable of producing strong
tornadoes along with widespread damaging winds and large hail, will
move across portions of the middle Mississippi and Ohio Valley
region and the southern Great Lakes region for the remainder of
today into this evening. Damaging winds will remain a concern as
storms move across the Appalachians and portions of the Northeast
tonight, while severe storms will also be possible this afternoon
into tonight across parts of the Tennessee and lower Mississippi
Valleys.

State and local emergency managers are monitoring this potentially
very dangerous situation. Those in the threatened area are urged to
review severe weather safety rules and to listen to radio,
television, and NOAA Weather Radio for possible watches, warnings,
and statements later today.

Public Severe Weather Outlook 02:50:23.1012077

...SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS EXPECTED OVER PARTS OF THE MID-MISSISSIPPI
AND OHIO VALLEYS INTO MICHIGAN TODAY THROUGH EARLY TONIGHT...

The NWS Storm Prediction Center in Norman, Oklahoma is forecasting
the development of a few strong, long-track tornadoes over parts of
the Mid-Mississippi and Ohio Valleys into Michigan today through
early tonight.

The areas most likely to experience this activity include:

Illinois
Indiana
Northern and Western Kentucky
Lower Michigan
Ohio
Southeast Wisconsin

Surrounding this greatest risk region, severe thunderstorms will
also be possible from parts of Wisconsin, Iowa, Missouri, Arkansas,
Mississippi, Alabama, and Tennessee northeastward across much of the
Appalachians to the lower Great Lakes.

A potent jet stream disturbance with wind speeds in excess of 120
knots will sweep east across the central Plains today and across the
Ohio Valley and northern half of the Appalachians tonight. As this
occurs, a surface low now over the mid-Mississippi Valley will
rapidly intensify and accelerate northeastward, reaching northern
Michigan early tonight and western Quebec Monday morning.

East of the low, increasingly warm and humid air at the surface will
spread north across the Tennessee and Ohio Valleys, contributing to
very unstable conditions over a large part of the east central
United States. Coupled with daytime heating and ascent provided the
jet stream impulse, the environment will become very favorable for
severe thunderstorms --- especially along and ahead of fast-moving
cold front trailing southward from the low into the mid-Mississippi
and Ohio Valleys.

Given the degree of thermodynamic instability, and the strength and
character of the winds through the depth of the atmosphere, many of
the storms will become supercells. Some of these will be capable of
producing strong tornadoes --- in addition to large hail and swaths
of damaging surface winds.

The storms are expected to consolidate into one or two extensive
lines later today into tonight --- extending the threat for damaging
winds and isolated tornadoes eastward into the Appalachians by early
Monday.

State and local emergency managers are monitoring this potentially
very dangerous situation. Those in the threatened area are urged to
review severe weather safety rules and to listen to radio,
television, and NOAA Weather Radio for possible watches, warnings,
and statements later today.

SUNDAY...

.DAY ONE...TONIGHT.

WEATHER HAZARDS EXPECTED:

SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS...SOME MAY PRODUCE:
HAIL UP TO ONE INCH IN DIAMETER.
HEAVY RAIN.

AREAS AFFECTED AND TIMING:

ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE THIS EVENING ACROSS THE
ENTIRE OUTLOOK AREA WITH SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS POSSIBLE AFTER
MIDNIGHT...ESPECIALLY WEST TOWARD THE INTERSTATE 39 CORRIDOR.

DISCUSSION:

AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE AND APPROACHING WARM FRONT WILL
PROVIDE THE FOCUS FOR OCCASIONAL SHOWERS AND A FEW THUNDERSTORMS
TONIGHT. THE THREAT OF THUNDERSTORMS LOOKS TO BE THE GREATEST
AFTER MIDNIGHT AND OVER NORTH CENTRAL PORTIONS OF ILLINOIS. SOME
POTENTIAL DOES EXIST FOR A COUPLE OF THESE STORMS TO BECOME
SEVERE WITH LARGE HAIL THE PRIMARY THREAT.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY.

THUNDERSTORMS ARE LIKELY TO DEVELOP BY LATE MORNING OR EARLY
AFTERNOON SUNDAY...WITH MANY OF THE STORMS PROBABLY BECOMING
SEVERE. THE EXTREMELY STRONG WINDS THROUGHOUT THE ATMOSPHERE
COUPLED WITH MODERATE INSTABILITY THAT ARE FORECAST TO DEVELOP
WOULD PROVIDE AN EXCEPTIONALLY FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT FOR
THUNDERSTORMS TO PRODUCE DAMAGING WINDS IN EXCESS OF 70 MPH AS
WELL AS ISOLATED TORNADOES...INCLUDING SOME THREAT FOR A STRONG
DAMAGING TORNADO. STORMS WILL BE MOVING EXTREMELY RAPIDLY ON
SUNDAY...LIKELY AT 65 MPH OR GREATER.
