There is a slight risk over the remainder of the outlook area. Storms with the potential for strong winds and heavy rainfall will move into the area this morning. A greater risk for severe storms will occur this afternoon as a warm front lifts northward across the area. Thunderstorms are likely with a few supercells possible, especially in the afternoon. The severe weather threats will include damaging winds, large hail and tornadoes. Scattered storms will be possible in the evening, with a few possibly severe before 10 pm. Heavy rainfall will be possible today through the evening hours. This may lead to flash flooding as soil conditions are saturated from the recent wet weather. Area rivers are experiencing flooding. Please see the latest Flood Statements and Flood Warnings for details. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY Both severe weather and heavy rain are a threat Tuesday and a lesser threat Wednesday. SPC currently has the area in a slight risk Tuesday and marginal risk Wednesday, reflecting the relative risk of severe weather each day. Additional rainfall will continue to exacerbate flooding on both the Mississippi River and tributaries. Another round of storms is forecast late Friday night into Saturday, and rain could linger intermittently through the weekend. While it is too early to predict any severe weather hazards, additional rainfall would continue to maintain high soil moisture levels and flooding on area rivers. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... Spotter activation and amateur radio activation may be needed this afternoon and evening. Sheets/Wolf
