Smoke from the Canadian wildfires is being ushered out of the area
due to an upper level shortwave passing through. Thunderstorms are
ongoing over the NW CWA this morning and will continue to push
southeast towards the Springfield area. So far, convection has been
elevated and the storms should remain sub-severe. Main threats this
morning would hail, frequent lightning, and gusty winds.

Convection is forecast to dissipate around sunrise. Then, sunny
skies and warm temperatures in the mid 80s will ensue for the rest
of the day. Tonight, skies will be clear with lows in the 50s.

.LONG TERM...(Saturday through Thursday)
Issued at 323 AM CDT Fri Sep 8 2023

The forecast through the weekend will feature rain-free weather with
highs in the mid 80s and lows in the mid 50s.

The start of the work week will start out rainy with a cold front
moving through the area Monday. However, that will set a very fall-
like weather pattern in place for us by mid-week with highs in the
mid 70s and lows in the 50s through Wednesday.
