Severe Weather Threat today for Parts of Arkansas,Missouri,Eastern Oklahoma,southern louisiana.mississippi, and western Florida

Concerning for Severe WEather and possible tornadoes in parts of Arkansas,Missouri,eastern Oklahoma,

A new set of severe weather is expected to happen today by night to late night in parts of arkansas,missouri,and later at southern louisiana,southern mississippi,florida western part
The Newly formed Jets over cent tx will rusk rapidly towards EWD and creating active weather on the path. Central TX forecasts for morning shows low dew points and lack of shear.
The threat shall remain very restricted to this area. But as the lows progress EWD,
The warm environment with favoured shears will increase the risk of hails as well tornadoes as the lows enter the border of OK-tx-ar-la.
The low level jets of 40kt will enter the border by 18hr that is the night time. During the day for the south central states, day time heating will take place and will add to de-stabilisation of the environment till the night.The jets will weaken by 15hr. The surface maps for south central states of USA shows cyclogenesis ovr KS-MO border which will amplify the jets and push them towards central arkansas and further to south.
The thermo models show instability of 750J-1000J in these areas with the Dewpoint of 60F+
Shears will develop by late even which will increase the risk of hails and tornadoes by night in ctrl AK,Southern Misssouri,and to coastal areas of MS,LA,FL,. this is a night-early morn weather event.Threat for damaging winds and hails and also for tornadoes is very high and SPC has given 10% chance of tornadoes in this area.
Please be prepared for the action with the battery charged
CELLULAR CONVECTION IS
    EXPECTED INITIALLY..

No chance of rainfall for today

The chance for rainfall on 10th march has become less. 
The alert is removed!

Rainfall Alert for nagpur on 10th march 2010 night!

METD Weather

Concerning- Rainfall alert #05 for Nagpur
The summer has already kicked off in the Indian plains and the temperatures have exceeded 35Deg Celcius.The weather models have been consistent with the chance of rainfall and isolated thunderstorms over central India. A low pressure zone in Bay Of Bengal is expected to move northwards weakening towards bangladesh. This LW will pump some cut off troughs towards Center and those will be the Neg.Vorticities. This means it will cause T.storm. 

For Nagpur, On 10th March,Wed. The day will be very hot. There is a strong chance of isolated T.storm at night and its going to be like the lasts mondays thing. 
The day's heat will build the clouds and will strengthen them to T.storms by Late afternoon to Midnight. The instability is overhead and the lift index are less than -2. 
If the day heats up sufficiently, the atmosphere will destabilize and might generate Hails or GARA by Evening. The rains will start by late evening or probably 5pm and will continue till night. Total amounts will be 1-2mm

On 12th march 2010, there is some RH present in the upper levels of atmosphere. The models are indicating rainfall right from the morning with a chance of thunderstorm 
I will verify the 12th march models later but remember tomorrow Evening and night will be cool. 
For me,I am expecting Hails in Nagpur which might fall tomorrow and better chance is on 12th march. 

stay safe-

The weather turns to SW Oklahoma and Central Texas

Severe weather is possible tomorrow in SW OK,central TX.
The Helicity is very positive that is 600.

THe low level jet is 50kt

Moderate severe possible in USA during 7-8th march




METD Weather
USA

Concerning for thunderstorms in some parts of USA

Seeing the models it is looking like the tornado alley of USA is getting back into action slowly by following a very slow path. The 90hr GFS is showing the arrival of one 120kt jet upper level system into states of southern USA like Texas. The winter is still prevalent in many parts and there were zero tornado reports in Feb 2010 which is a history. Meanwhile there were many sayings that this season is late. But it doesnt' seem so. I had been seeing for this model throughout the runs from 1st March with an expectation of producing something in the southern states. A bet is also on between me and John Hallen Of SWS regarding this system .JH seems to be favouring for Kansas and hopes there will be a cold core storm in kansas where the thermodynamics are negative with low dewpoints,low moisture. The best one has to be texas southern and western part. The 90hr GFS has been consistent right from 140hr GFS from the model runs from 1st march

Coming to this system--
The main upper level trough is slowing progressing with a little delay. It seems its going to show the best on Monday afternoon. At the surface level,there are 40-30kt jets near and around central texas with some over the mexican border in areas of Del Rio. in these areas the dewpoints are fair but better than the northern part. The DP is 60F and the main problem goes with the instability. the instability is marginal 750J/kg for texas. this will restrict the strengthning of the thunderstorm. There is limited moisture at the surface and more I can say is restricted to some parts like souther tx.nm border and then later spreads towards east parts and North-eastern Tx.

Still looking at strong cold air advection at 700-500 Mb in the TX panhandle w/divergent flow. This is little negative but the conditions are expected to be a bit ok on monday.

THE Lift index values are -4 showing strong possibility of thunderstorms in the central part of texas.
The LLJ will move towards north eastern texas and thus there will be two system outbreak
I will however support the one over texas and mexican border near the areas of Del Rio as this will be better than the one over Texas and Oklahoma border.
The conditions will be clear tomorrow as the new model runs come in.
SUpport my team TX

I shall not be able to upgrade further due to some busy schedule in the coming week
So please turn on ur radios and check other websites for details
