For late May, it’s harder to get much quieter than this. Aside from Friday and Saturday, tornado threats over the next seven days look pretty minimal.
NUMBER OF TORNADOES EXPECTED: 3-8 – CONFIDENCE: Normal
Tornado Hot-spot: None
Pros: Moderate instability, good speed shear, decent low-level directional shear.
Cons: Somewhat weak upper-level support and clouds and rain already in the threat area could limit tornadic storm development, storm mode will be mostly linear due to unidirectional mid-to-upper level winds.
