Special update issued August 19 at 10:00pm
I’ll be monitoring storms through the night.
A severe t-storm watch was just issued well to our west on the Arkansas/Missouri border until 3:00 a.m. It’s those storms that I’ll be tracking east. They should weaken as they approach the plateau, but I’ll watch them just in case they don’t.
Out of abundance of caution, I added the very low-end risk for a brief spin-up tornado. The main threat is a damaging wind gust and possible flash flooding.
I’ve updated the hourly forecast for tonight, as seen below.
And I’ll be using my concern meter again! This is where I am right now. We’ll see if this changes overnight.
As always, I’ll keep a very close eye on things. Overall, this is a low-end threat but it’s not zero. Just keep it right here to Meteorologist Mark! Thank you!
