STORM BOWING OUT SOUTH OF ST LOUIS

#1 Postby WXBUFFJIM » Tue May 06, 2003 7:21 pm

In addition to the tornado threat, damaging winds are increasing as this storm lines up and bows out just south of Saint Louis. We could definitely see wind gusts of 80-100 mph along the leading edge of this developing line/bow echo. The potential for extensive wind damage is increasing just south of st louis this evening. Watch out in Jefferson and Franklin County, Missouri.

This one is particularly nasty looking and has been long lasting across the state. Three supercells have now merged into one.

The circulation looks like a mini hurricane.
