833 PM CDT Sun Apr 10 2022

This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for portions of the Missouri
Ozarks and extreme southeast Kansas.

.DAY ONE...Tonight.

Weather hazards expected...

  Limited tornado risk.
  Limited hail risk.
  Limited thunderstorm wind damage risk.
  Significant lightning risk.
  Limited excessive rainfall risk

DISCUSSION...

A cold front has entered southeast Kansas and west central
Missouri this evening. This front will be the focus for
thunderstorms to form after 10pm, lasting through the overnight
hours. Some storms will likely be severe with large hail up to
the size of golf balls, damaging winds to 60 mph and frequent
cloud to ground lightning in the most intense storms. The tornado
threat remains very low.

Localized flooding will be possible if thunderstorms move over
the same areas repeatedly. Currently the highest potential for
this is along the Interstate 44 corridor from Joplin to
Springfield.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Monday through Friday.

A cold front will stall over the region Monday. This front will
remain the focus for thunderstorms at times with some severe
storms possible with large hail and damaging winds being the main
concerns.

Additional storms will be possible Tuesday and Wednesday as a
large storm system moves through the central U.S.. Severe storms
will again be possible.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Spotter activation will likely be needed overnight across the
area.
