Areas affected...Middle Mississippi Valley

Concerning...Severe potential...Tornado Watch likely=20

Valid 280215Z - 280315Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...80 percent

SUMMARY...Severe risk will increase across central MO into central
IL late this evening into the early-morning hours. Tornado Watch is
warranted to account for this risk.

DISCUSSION...Strong low-level warm advection is noted across MO late
this evening as LLJ strengthens into this portion of the mid MS
Valley. An elongated LEWP extends from southeast KS-western/northern MO-southeast IA. This MCS is gradually advancing east within a
strongly sheared, and modestly unstable air mass. 00z soundings from
SGF and ILX exhibited surface-6km bulk shear around 35kt, but 0-3
SRH is quite strong at SGF, and should strengthen a bit over the
next several hours. While the primary storm mode should remain a
LEWP, some risk for QLCS tornadoes will exist, along with embedded
supercells. New tornado watch will be issued given the current
trends.
