Below are the latest severe weather maps from the Storm Prediction Center (SPC) – the nation’s experts on severe weather. The first map covers the period through 6am Wednesday. The second map is the potential for severe weather after 6am Wednesday. Right now, I’m pegging Wednesday’s AM rush hour (6-8am) for the line to move through Memphis – not a good time at all unfortunately. High wind will be the primary threat, with isolated tornadoes and large hail as secondary threats. For an outlook on the severe weather covering the entire risk area, read the SPC’s Public Severe Weather Outlook, issued only when an outbreak is expected.
