Friday/Early Afternoon

Good afternoon everyone. As Erik said in the last post, several bouts of showers and thunderstorms moved through the area earlier this morning. They are now gone, and so far, we are left with hot and humid conditions once again.

The Storm Prediction Center has continued to highlight areas that are along and south of the Ohio River in a SLIGHT RISK for severe weather. I will have to agree with Erik, the set-up does NOT look good for widespread severe weather, however, an isolated severe storm cannot be ruled out. Any storm that can get its act together later this afternoon will have the potential to produce damaging winds and marginally severe hail. The SPC outlook from this morning has not changed to much this afternoon. Areas north of the Ohio River will stay dry with only a very isolated shot at an evening thunderstorm.

Me and Erik will be doing live video blogging forecasts at www.livestream.com/southernindianaweather everyday at 11 AM, 2, PM, and 5 PM. If significant weather is hitting the area, we will also be live. You can see a list of the videos we've done by going to the site. I just got done doing one, so check it out! We are still trying to figure this out since it is new to us, so bear with us. Thanks!
