This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for portions of southern
Illinois, southwest Indiana, western Kentucky, and southeast
Missouri.

.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight

There is a chance for strong to potentially severe storms
approaching from the northwest and hitting late tonight with
damaging winds the main hazard. The threat is mainly west of a
line from Mount Vernon, IL to Carbondale, to Poplar Bluff, MO.

The aforementioned line of storms will lay out a boundary across
the area, and as upper level energy approaches from the west
later in the day, will ignite storms along it. As it does so,
from late afternoon into the evening, it will contain a chance for
severe storms capable of damaging winds and possibly an isolated
tornado.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Spotter activation may be requested within the next 24 to 48
hours.
