Major red flag... Due to lingering cloud cover, especially in SW Missouri, low-level lapse rates are anemic. 15z HRRR progged 6.5-7 C/km lapse rates for 19z, where mesoanalysis and 1hr 18z HRRR show ~5.5 C/km. There’s still time, but clouds are slow to move out. #mowx #okwx pic.twitter.com/DuxkF3z3M6
