2nd Tornado Season Could be Coming to Missouri in November?
As we begin to transition into November, you'd expect cooler weather to be incoming, but that's not the pattern that's about to impact Missouri. It's very possible that many parts of the state could experience almost a second tornado season beginning as early as this next week.
One of the most popular weather channels on YouTube is Ryan Hall Y'all with more than 2.28 million subscribers. He's just shared an outlook for weather over the next week and it appears that Missouri is right in the middle of an area that's about to see a big warm up with a trough making its way across the country and there will be a lot of moisture coming up from the Gulf of Mexico that will meet it.
Missouri is likely to see some severe weather impact the state as early as Tuesday.
Wednesday is the more likely day for strong storms in Missouri especially that night.
This will not be just a one-off pattern, but it will repeat around November 5, 2024.
For the record, the NOAA Storm Prediction Center agrees with the assessment that Missouri could see some strong storms and even some tornadoes on Wednesday.
Here's the outlook from NOAA for the warmer than usual expected temperatures.
This shows the chance for better than average precipitation for Missouri for that same period in early November.
I would recommend watching Ryan's full video as he explains how this pattern will nearly create a second tornado season for the Midwest and especially Missouri.
While it's not likely that Missouri will see any strong tornadoes, it's good to be mentally prepared for storm activity in November not completely unlike what Spring was like.
