Radar, Watches And Warnings

Watches and warnings are issued by the National Weather Service.

L​atest Storm Reports

These are initial reports of tornadoes, large hail, and high winds or wind damage from thunderstorms. Note: The number of tornadoes is often not known immediately following a severe event. The number of tornado reports, therefore, doesn't necessarily correlate to the number of actual tornadoes, which are later confirmed by NWS storm surveys.

Severe Thunderstorm Reports

Dew Points

This map shows where moisture levels near the ground are higher, using the dew point. More moisture near the ground tends to be more favorable for severe thunderstorms, all other factors equal.

Current Dew Points

Temperatures

This map shows current temperatures across the U.S. Warmer air near the ground tends to be more favorable for severe thunderstorms, all other factors equal.

I​nstability (CAPE)

This map shows areas of unstable air (contours), along with the latest satellite image. More unstable air is more favorable for the development of severe thunderstorms, all other factors equal.

W​ind Shear

This map shows winds near the ground (red arrows) and in the mid-levels of the atmosphere (blue arrows). Where these arrows cross at larger angles indicate areas of stronger deep-layer wind shear that are more supportive of severe thunderstorms, all other factors equal.
