WITH THE HEAVIER ACTIVITY AND GREATEST AREAL COVERAGE GENERALLY ALONG AND NORTH OF THE KANSAS AND MISSOURI BORDERS. NOT A LOT OF CHANGE IN THE OVERALL WEATHER PATTERN IS EXPECTED OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS. THE ATMOSPHERE CONTINUES TO BE MOISTURE LADEN AND QUITE UNSTABLE... ESPECIALLY DURING THE HEAT OF THE DAY. NUMEROUS OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES LANGUISHING ACROSS THE REGION WILL CONTINUE TO BE FOCI FOR ADDITIONAL CONVECTION. AS A RULE... THE CONVECTION SHOULD TEND TO WEAKEN AFTER SUNSET BUT IF THE PAST FEW NIGHTS ARE ANY INDICATION... STORMS WILL LIKELY PERSIST WELL INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. AM CONTINUING TO CARRY HEALTHY POPS EACH DAY THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE SEVEN DAY FORECAST... AS THE UPPER PATTERN WILL BE SLOW TO EVOLVE. EXPECT TO CONTINUE TO SEE LOTS OF CLOUDS AND HUMIDITY. ALTHOUGH TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN NEAR SEASONAL NORMALS IT SHOULD FEEL QUITE MUGGY IN BETWEEN BOUTS OF RAINFALL. WOULD ALSO NOT BE SURPRISED TO SEE INTERMITTENT PULSE-TYPE SEVERE STORMS OCCUR OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS AS WELL. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
