Severe Weather Outbreak Possible Tuesday
A fairly sizeable severe weather event is looking to set-up across the Ohio Valley including all of Indiana and all of Western Ohio for Tuesday.
A strong trough of low pressure will eject Northeast into the Ohio Valley and an extremely unstable atmosphere will set up across the region. By afternoon, strong to severe thunderstorms will develop to our West and begin to move across Indiana and into Western Ohio.
Extremely high lapse rates and very cold upper air temperatures will promote the development of some extremely large hail. Wind backed southeasterly surface winds, some tornadoes will also be possible.
The exact details of the severe weather event are still in question, but it is looking more and more likely that a major severe weather event will take place tomorrow (on Tuesday).
As some of you saw, IndianaWeatherOnline.com tried a new Live Severe Weather Mode during Friday's Severe Weather Event. We used what is called a live blog and also had live video coverage of radar data on the frontpage of the site. If you saw and used the website during the Severe Weather Event on Friday, we are looking for feedback on whether you liked the coverage and what you would like to see during severe weather outbreaks, so please feel free to drop me an email.
