Overnight Tornado Threat Overview

I have updated my evening tornado threat forecast for this evening.
The swath of yellow is indicative of some stronger storms possible/likely as the squall line continues east. The red area is a short term area. As the daytime heating lessens, as does instability, the tornado threat should diminish soon after this happens. Additionally, the storms are going linear, therefore decreasing the tornado threat.
There are some spotty pink areas that are for the cells that are currently tornado warned and would otherwise be just red of those cells were not present.

-Andrew

LIVE Updates

Currently 92 tornado reports per the Storm Prediction Center.
14 Deaths confirmed- total to rise.

Thank You

I wanted to take a minute and thank all those who come to see The Weather Centre. Without your support, this blog really wouldn't be as good as it is now. Thank you again. I really do appreciate it when you comment or even just drop by to see it.

-Andrew

Rest of Afternoon Tornado Outlook

Our in-house weather model is showing the tornado threat for the rest of this evening to reside mainly across Kentucky and Tennessee. What I find startling is that our in-house model is indicating an area of pink in central Tennessee, indicating the risk of stronger tornadoes is present into the rest of this afternoon. After the afternoon storms, everything should quickly diminish into the night.
