Alright i tired of no one stepping up and writting a post about the weather so im going to give it a try.......  So here we go.......  To start things off  Monday is expected to be a good 20* warmer than mother's day which was down right nasty to be outside in.  All thinks to that big ol' low pressure system departing off to the northeast. As the suface ridge moves out of the area  a more Southeastly wind will develop and transport warmer temperatures into the region.  Tuesday another bowling ball type storm system begins to take shape in the plains and move to the northeast dragging a cold front  southeast across the area.  Numerous showers and thunderstorms are expected to develop and move into the area from the west.  Super cells are expected to be the storm mode Initially for western portions of MO and then turn more linear and is expected to move eastward through the region late tuesday night and early Wednesday morning.  These storms should be in the weaking stage as they approch the region however still can't rule out isolated severe storms within the line exspeacially from St. Louis points south and west where the SPC has issued a slight risk for severe thunderstorms.  Im not excited about this storm at all because as dave said the atmosphere is pretty zapped from the weekend storm. Never the less its still something to watch as the system approches us. Rainfall with this system should be in the 1-2" range with locally higher amounts possible.  After this storm moves out expect mostly cloudy skies and cooler temperatures for the rest of the week.   Graphical depiction of the weather story for today.

So all you weather bloggers lets get back on track and start doing what we do best and thats talkin bout the weather.......

Convection is beginning to clear the area (finally).... This might allow some time for the sun to come out and get those temperatures up and dwpts up. With that said maybe get some re-developing storms this evening with the possibility of them turning severe.

My name is Reath and I'm 18 years old and I've been interested in the weather since I was hit by a EF2 Tornado in 1996. I attend Salem Community High School as a senior; everyone there calls me doppler. So I created a blog with that name. On the side I love takeing photos of clouds and lighting. I also enjoy writting reports on the weather and handing them out to my teachers and fellow classmates. And now blogging. Enjoy!
