 Additional severe storms are expected this afternoon and evening,
 initially developing across eastern Kansas and western Missouri
 before expanding to the east. Large hail is the primary concern,
 while strong to damaging winds and an isolated tornado or two is
 also possible. Given the recently saturated surface, flash flooding
 is also possible where storms develop. The severe window will taper
 off late Saturday evening, though sub-severe storms will persist
 through Saturday night into Sunday morning.
