severe weather outlook overview for the next few days

Tuesday, Apr 1
Isolated severe storm development will be possible into the overnight across parts of the southern and central Plains, with large hail and severe gusts. A tornado will be possible. Late tonight, an organized line of thunderstorms with severe wind gusts and isolated large hail is expected to develop across parts of central and eastern Kansas.
Wednesday, Apr 2
Numerous severe storms are likely Wednesday and Wednesday night across the southern Great Lakes, Mid Mississippi Valley, and North Texas into the ArkLaTex. Severe wind gusts, very large hail, and strong tornadoes are possible.
Thursday, Apr 3
A broad area of strong to severe storms is expected along a frontal zone from the ArkLaTex, Mid Mississippi Valley to the Ohio/Tennessee Valleys and the Mid Atlantic. Damaging gusts and hail are the primary risks, though a few tornadoes are possible.

what is my future radar?

On My Future Radar, you can see the future. Or at least, what the weather forecast models think the future will be.

You are on the page that displays data from the NAM Hires forecast model. Currently, we have radar imagery for this model from now until .

About My Future Radar

My Future Radar uses data from the Rapid Refresh and the NAM forecast models to provide simulated future radar imagery.

The Rapid Refresh model is run hourly and is useful for short term forecasting. The North American Mesoscale Forecast System (NAM) is run 4 times a day and typically has data from now to 2.5 days in the future.
