The wider storm
A second round of severe thunderstorms occurred during the afternoon and evening on May 26, 2024. Supercell thunderstorms initialized over central Missouri and spread southward as rapid destabilization occurred along and east of Highway 65. 40-55 knots of deep layer shear combined with steep mid-level lapse rates and sufficient instability primed the atmosphere to produce all modes of severe weather. This included hail up to 4 inches in diameter, which caused extensive damage to cars and roofs in Webster County, as well as damaging winds and flooding. Four tornadoes touched down, including an EF-2 tornado in Shannon County, and an EF-3 tornado in Howell and Shannon counties.
Began near Gravois Mills Arpt (38.2000, -92.8300).
