It is looking to be an active week. Chances for severe weather on Wednesday (overnight mainly), Saturday and Sunday (and possibly Monday). Of course with Sat/Sun being so far off they could slide some and it is not clear what the exact threat will be. Stay tuned...

Again, there's potential for something, somewhere, but with the way this year has been going, and the horrible consistency of a lot of the models, I wouldn't be throwing around "large tornado outbreak" potential this far in advance. And his term didn't even make sense. A large tornado outbreak, as opposed to a small tornado outbreak?Deuces Valley.
... No really, deuces.

Start to Twister Season Could be Quietest in a Century: Experts
This year has so far seen fewer twisters than any similar period in at least six decades and possibly a century or more, and zero deaths so far.
Call it the silver lining in last winter’s polar vortex: This year has so far seen fewer twisters than any similar period in at least six decades and possibly a century or more.
The U.S. has so far seen zero tornado deaths –- the safest start since 2002.
The start of 2014 is definitely the slowest in terms of tornadoes since 1953, when the most detailed database was started, Harold Brooks, a senior researcher at the National Severe Storms Laboratory in Norman, Okla., told NBC News.

The fact that he threw out "large tornado outbreak" is just weak sauce, but par for the course for DOFO.
