Tornadoes possible for Arkansas & southwest MissouriSevere thunderstorms are in the outlook for parts of Arkansas, southwest Missouri and extreme eastern Oklahoma late this afternoon into tonight as another robust storm system ejects out of the southern Plains. Plenty of wind shear will be in place for rotating storms, the timing of the arrival of adequate moisture will play a large part in determining the outcome of today's event. Dewpoints are currently in the mid to low 40s across much of Arkansas, and while model guidance suggests that 50 degree dewpoints could be attainable as far north as Fayetteville late today, the question still remains as to whether that moisture will arrive in time for the best mid/upper level support. This system is similar to the one that produced multiple tornadoes and extremely large hail in Arkansas on March 10, so based on that recent history lesson, if 50-degree dewpoints can make it on time, storms with rotating updrafts should be easy to come by from Springfield to Little Rock. Brian Emfinger and others will likely be out later this afternoon, so be sure to check the Live page for updates!
