105 PM CDT SUN OCT 14 2007
THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR NORTHWEST...NORTH CENTRAL
AND WEST CENTRAL MISSOURI...AS WELL AS EXTREME EASTERN KANSAS.
.DAY ONE...THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT
THE REST OF THE AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING HOURS WILL REMAIN FREE FROM
ANYTHING OTHER THAN ISOLATED SHOWERS OR THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY. WHAT
STORMS MAY DEVELOP WILL NOT BE SEVERE...BUT COULD HAVE LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN
AND CLOUD TO GROUND LIGHTNING.
LATE TONIGHT...AND EARLY MONDAY MORNING...ANOTHER ROUND OF STORMS WILL
MOVE ACROSS EASTERN KANSAS INTO MISSOURI...AS A SURFACE BOUNDARY AND
UPPER LEVEL SYSTEM MOVE INTO THE REGION. SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ARE NOT
EXPECTED DUE TO THE LACK OF INSTABILITY DURING THE OVERNIGHT HOURS...BUT
HEAVY RAINFALL LEADING TO FLOODING WILL BE POSSIBLE ACROSS AREAS FROM
THE NORTHWEST CORNER OF MISSOURI SOUTH AND SOUTHEAST INTO EAST
CENTRAL KANSAS AND CENTRAL MISSOURI. AREAS THAT HAVE RECEIVED SEVERAL
INCHES OF RAINFALL OVER THE PAST 48 HOURS WILL BE MOST AT RISK FOR
FLOODING PROBLEMS OVERNIGHT.
.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY
THE SURFACE FRONT WILL FINISH SWEEPING EAST ACROSS THE REST OF
MISSOURI MONDAY. WHILE SHEAR IS EXPECTED TO BE SUFFICIENT FOR SEVERE
STORMS...THE AMOUNT OF INSTABILITY IS IN QUESTION. THIS MAKES THE
POTENTIAL FOR SEVERE WEATHER VERY CONDITIONAL BEHIND THE FRONT. PERSONS
ARE URGED TO MONITOR LATER OUTLOOKS FOR UPDATES.
ANOTHER STORM SYSTEM WILL MOVE ACROSS THE REGION ON WEDNESDAY NIGHT
INTO THURSDAY. DEPENDING ON THE TRACK OF THE SYSTEM...SEVERE WEATHER
MAY BE A POSSIBILITY WITH THIS SYSTEM AS WELL.
.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
SPOTTER ACTIVATION IS NOT ANTICIPATED THROUGH TONIGHT...BUT MIGHT BE
NEEDED FOR MONDAY AFTERNOON.
