Weather hazards expected... Limited tornado risk. Elevated thunderstorm wind damage risk. Limited flooding risk. Limited lightning risk. Limited fog risk. DISCUSSION... Another round of moderate to locally heavy rainfall will move through the area this afternoon into this evening. The heaviest rainfall will be across southern Missouri. This additional rainfall occurring on already saturated grounds will lead to an additional risk for flooding of low water crossings and low lying spots, as rises on area creeks, streams, and rivers occur. Scattered thunderstorms will also develop as a cold front moves through the area. A few severe storms will be possible this afternoon and evening across primarily south-central Missouri. The primary concern with any severe storms will be damaging straight line winds. An isolated tornado may also be possible. Patchy dense fog will occur in low areas across southern and central Missouri through through the afternoon. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Sunday through Friday. Scattered thunderstorm may be possible again towards the middle of next week. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... Spotter activation will not be needed through tonight. && More detailed information can be accessed at: http://www.weather.gov/sgf/sitrep This product in graphical format...along with other weather... hydrological and climate information...at http://www.weather.gov/sgf Gaede
