Thunderstorms

You'll maybe never see storms quite the same way again. A new time-lapse video captures images of thunderstorms from many parts of America including Missouri. It's a visual symphony for the eyes that is unlike any other.

A simple act of service has made a Missouri deputy famous as video of him helping an 11-year-old escape an incoming thunderstorm has now gone viral.

You'll want to pay attention to weather warnings on Friday as meteorologists are expecting potential development of violent storms that will be moving through Missouri and Illinois.

It would be a good idea to keep an eye on the skies in Missouri and Illinois Sunday as storms are forecast to move through both states bringing with them golf ball-sized hail, 70mph winds and even a few tornadoes.

I feel like there must be an interesting backstory to this. It's a video of a storm that unleashed its fury on Missouri this past week. In it, there's a skeleton who appears to be hanging on for dear life. Really.

It would be a good idea to keep an eye on the skies over Missouri and Illinois midweek as there's a good chance that we'll see big storms with damaging winds develop that might bring with it helpful rain, too.

If you blink you'll miss them, but red sprites recently exploded so big over an Iowa thunderstorm that they were seen by a photographer in Missouri who captured video of the phenomenon.

Stop me if you've heard me say this before, but there's a good chance that thunderstorms in Missouri could be wild Saturday afternoon as the area is now under an enhanced risk of explosive storm development.

I was hesitant to even share details about the severe storm chances for Missouri and Illinois Tuesday due to the extreme uncertainty about what will happen. There very much is a dangerous weather situation developing, but it will all depend on a handful of factors if anything serious happens at all.

The Midwest has barely had a chance to catch its collective breath after supercells dropped over 100 tornadoes over Missouri, Arkansas, Illinois and Iowa. Now, there's another warning that Tuesday, April 4 could be another day of dangerous storms and this time all of Missouri is in the warning area.
