Severe weather threat still looks marginal Wednesday.  But, we will have to watch the system very closely for any surprises.  That was a marginal setup that created the EF2 tornado in Western Oklahoma Monday.  I think this map showcases the best overlap of instability and shear.  Keep in mind – this is a developing forecast so we may have to adjust several times.  But, I’m pretty confident the greatest threat will be west of I-65 and after 4pm.  The limiting factor will be instability with this particular system.   We’ll keep you posted.
