It's hot as balls today.

Looks like everything is staying mostly east of where I am in JoMo.

We just had some customers here at work from San Antonio doing an audit, they were hauling ass to get out of here to the airport worried about tornados all day. Had a co worker text them and tell them they needed to get out of Missouri ASAP LMAO

lol well to be fair, the type of tornados predicted tonight are the large violent wedge types....

Yeah, they're predicting the potential for long-track violent tornadoes but at least here in Iowa, they're saying the setup isn't looking now like Friday's so the threat here may be more wind and hail.

Who knows at this point.

The only storms in Iowa right now are SW of Des Moines, outside of even the lowest risk area.

I've been thinking the cape values in Iowa didn't look as promising for tornados as it did Southern Missouri

We're having 60-70 MPH here in the TX panhandle. ****ing dust bowl! Hate this place. Would rather be in a Tornado to at least get some rain!

Exactly. Similar regions affected as Friday but the atmospheric conditions aren't the same, at least not here.

The real action is likely to be much further south, into NE TX, Arkansas, and SE MO.

I live a couple of hours west of St. Joe, and work in southern Nebraska. Coming home at 4:00, I could see the thunderheads building over the Nebraska, Iowa, Missouri "corner" area. They were massive from 2 hours away.

The line coming out of NW MO into western IA is looking like it might have some strong cells in it but so far nothing severe.

Friday, a big straight line wind storm threw a dumpster 75 yards and smashed it into my truck, and ripped a roof off the shade I built on my deck last summer.

Today, there are 30-40 degree temp differences within the state and sharnadoes are certain to hulk smash stuff.

That's the one I was seeing. A Severe Thunderstorm Warning was posted for it according to NBC 41 out of KC.

Yeah, they were barely developed at that point. There's a line now extending from the "corner" all the way to NW of Des Moines.

At one point this afternoon, it was 57 in Dubuque and 86 in Burlington.

Yep. The cell right at the "corner" is now ST warned as is the most northern cell in western IA.
