Warm and humid air at the surface will bubble up into a pool of colder, drier air aloft across portions of Arkansas, Missouri, Illinois and Iowa on Sunday, resulting in vigorous thunderstorms which may produce heavy rain, large hail and damaging wind gusts. A few of the most violent thunderstorms may also spin-up a tornado. The churning pool of cold air aloft will provide an intense shearing environment where the surface winds and the wind aloft veer with height promoting rotation within a thunderstorm which may help to spawn a tornado. Strong to severe thunderstorms will also rumble along the Gulf Coast from southeastern Louisiana across Mississippi into southern Alabama and the Florida Panhandle Sunday

A storm moving very slowly through the nation's midsection will draw warm, moist air northward from the Gulf of Mexico Saturday evening. This will produce strong to severe thunderstorms from eastern Texas and eastern Oklahoma eastward into Louisiana, Arkansas and Missouri. Thunderstorms Saturday evening will produce blinding downpours and frequent cloud to ground lightning. Stronger storms will contain wind gusts in excess of 50 mph and large hail. The most violent storms could spawn tornadoes. The severe threat will shift slowly eastward overnight Saturday into Sunday and will affect portions of western Kentucky, western Tennessee, Mississippi, eastern Louisiana and Alabama

The Severe Cyclonic Storm “MALA” over southeast Bay of Bengal remained practically stationary and lay centred at 1430 hrs. IST near Lat. 12.50 N and Long. 90.50 E, about 250 km west-northwest of Port Blair. The system is likely to intensify further and move slowly in a north-northeasterly direction. The numerical models as well as synoptic patterns continue to suggest that the system may intensify further and track in a northeasterly direction towards Arakan coast with a possible landfall on 30th April. Under its influence, scattered heavy to very heavy rainfall is likely over Andaman Islands during next 48 hours. Gale force winds reaching 70-80 kmph also likely over Andaman Islands during the same period. currently at cat 1 thats going by the average wind speeds

you lot never know as you get there you may need to get the digi cams at the ready http://headlines.accuweather.com/news-stor...adc=0&article=0 The cold front that served as the focus of severe weather Tuesday and Tuesday night from North Carolina to Texas will again trigger severe thunderstorms Wednesday evening for parts of the Southeast. The greatest threat for severe weather will be across southern South Carolina, central and southern Georgia, southeastern Alabama and the northern third of Florida. The main threats in these regions through the first half of Wednesday night will be torrential downpours, large hail and wind gusts in excess of 50 mph. An isolated tornado is possible in the strongest thunderstorms. Most of the thunderstorm activity will be off the Southeast coast by Thursday morning. Any severe thunderstorms that form Thursday will likely be in West Texas and southeastern New Mexico as instability increases ahead of an approaching upper-level low.
