THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR NORTHWEST...NORTH CENTRAL AND
WEST CENTRAL MISSOURI...AS WELL AS EXTREME EASTERN KANSAS.

.DAY ONE...TONIGHT

THERE REMAINS A SLIGHT RISK FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH THIS
EVENING ACROSS PORTIONS OF CENTRAL AND NORTHERN MISSOURI. LARGE HAIL
AND DAMAGING WINDS ARE POSSIBLE THROUGH THIS EVENING BUT STORMS WILL
EVENTUALLY BECOME A HEAVY RAIN AND FLOODING THREAT DURING THE LATE

WESTERN EDGE OF THE STORMS AND MUCH OF THE AREA ALREADY NEARLY
SATURATED...RAINFALL WILL QUICKLY RUNOFF AND LEAD TO POSSIBLE FLASH
FLOODING...PARTICULARLY IF STORMS CAN TRAIN OVER THE SAME AREAS. THE
MOST LIKELY AREAS TO SEE SEVERE WEATHER AND FLOODING WILL BE
GENERALLY NORTH OF THE MISSOURI RIVER AND ALONG AND SOUTH OF HIGHWAY
36 IN NORTHERN MISSOURI.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY

ANOTHER COLD FRONT AND STRONG UPPER LEVEL SYSTEM WILL MOVE INTO THE
AREA THURSDAY AFTERNOON AND NIGHT WITH A BETTER CHANCE FOR
THUNDERSTORMS. SEVERE WEATHER AND HEAVY RAINFALL ARE POSSIBLE.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

SPOTTER ACTIVATION MAY CONTINUE TO BE NEEDED THROUGH THIS EVENING AND
RAINFALL REPORTS WOULD ALWAYS BE APPRECIATED THROUGH THE NIGHT.
