Potential For Another Big Tornado Outbreak Today

And Wednesday,  All the elements are there.  Moisture, instability, wind shear, near surface boundaries, and a strong cap.  The Weather Channel has a good explanation of how all of this works together in the classic plains tornado outbreak.  Here's where people need to keep an eye on the sky today:
The Storm Prediction Center has issued a "High Risk" alert for portions of Oklahoma and Kansas.

There have only been three other "High Risk" areas forecast by the SPC this year and the minimum number of tornadoes on any of those days was 56.  It's going to be a busy day.
