4/23 – Rob Knight’s “SEVERE/TORNADO WATCH” Morning Forecast

A very dynamic system is moving through the area this morning. All variables ahead of the current line are very supportive of all modes of severe wx. The rainfall rates will also be quite efficient and will likely cause flooding of streets, underpasses and low lying areas. This line is expected to eventually weaken as another line begins to evolve over the south-shore (La) locations around or just after daylight. This will eventually become more of a marine issue through the day; people in all locations should listen for alerts and warnings being issued.

As the actual front moves into the picture later this morning, another line of showers/t-storms looks to develop around noon today while the strongest activity should be near the coast or just offshore. The secondary line that develops along the front should decay by evening and all activity moving east overnight mainly offshore. Not a lot of activity noticed until next week around Tue and Wed when another spring system will get started just to the west bringing the possibility of strong to severe thunderstorms once again.
