Hazardous Weather Outlook National Weather Service Springfield MO 749 PM CDT Mon May 6 2024 KSZ073-097-101-MOZ055>058-066>071-077>083-088>098-101>106-080100- Bourbon-Crawford-Cherokee-Benton-Morgan-Miller-Maries-Vernon- St. Clair-Hickory-Camden-Pulaski-Phelps-Barton-Cedar-Polk-Dallas- Laclede-Texas-Dent-Jasper-Dade-Greene-Webster-Wright-Newton- Lawrence-Christian-Douglas-Howell-Shannon-McDonald-Barry-Stone- Taney-Ozark-Oregon- 749 PM CDT Mon May 6 2024 This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for portions of the Missouri Ozarks and extreme southeast Kansas. .DAY ONE...Tonight. Weather hazards expected... Elevated tornado risk. Limited hail risk. Significant thunderstorm wind damage risk. Significant lightning risk. Elevated excessive rainfall risk. DISCUSSION... Severe thunderstorms remain likely tonight as a line of thunderstorms approaches far southeast Kansas by 11pm and then moves east through southwest Missouri overnight. The line of storms will likely be out of the area by sunrise Tuesday. Widespread damaging winds of 60 to 80 mph is the most likely risk, especially along and west of Highway 65. However, there will be the potential for brief, short lived tornadoes. Large hail up to the size of half dollars and frequent lightning will also be a concern. A localized flooding risk overnight will also occur overnight with the greatest potential likely across southern Missouri. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Wednesday through Monday. Additional strong to severe thunderstorms are possible on Wednesday. Exact hazards remains in question, but very large hail,damaging, and a conditional tornado threat are all in play. SPC has an Enhanced Risk (level 3 out of 5) for most of the area. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... Spotter activation may be needed tonight for southeast Kansas and southwest Missouri. && More detailed information can be accessed at: http://www.weather.gov/sgf/dsspacket This product in graphical format...along with other weather... hydrological and climate information...at http://www.weather.gov/sgf Wise
