The episode as NWS EAX wrote it up.
A decaying convective system moved in western Missouri the night of June 1st and produced very isolated wind damage.
The local office's own words before the first event, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Kansas City, MO wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jun 1, 5:11 PM CST, 5 hours 45 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE KANSAS CITY/PLEASANT HILL MO 611 PM CDT Sun Jun 1 2014 .DISCUSSION... Issued at 359 PM CDT SUN JUN 1 2014 Overall pattern has changed to a more progressive and unsettled regime through the upcoming week. While there will no doubt be periods when there will be no precipitation the proximity of a couple frontal boundaries and the vagaries of the models further out in time will make it difficult to go dry in most periods. Short term concerns will focus on the evolution of upstream convection over NE and KS and any severe threat over northwest MO. A number of Hi Res models such as the HRRR and local WRF as well as the latest NAM and GFS track the current developing NE MCS eastward. At the same time activity blossoms southward towards central KS where a strengthening southerly low-level jet feeds moderately unstable air under an increasingly diffluent flow aloft. Too many models favor this evolution to ignore. These models propagate the KS convection southeast this evening which is supported by the Corfidi vectors. As the the low level jet veers overnight it will maintain the KS MCS as it moves into southwest MO. The convection in between these two core MCSs will likely weaken as it moves into the western CWA late this evening. The severe threat will be confined to northwest MO this evening with an isolated severe wind gust possible. By sunrise the main portion of the convection is expected to be near or have exited the eastern and southern counties. However, can't rule out scattered convection bubbling back up during the morning and afternoon hours as the southwesterly low-level jet will enhance convergence along any residual outflow boundaries as well as a weak cold front entering the CWA. Temperatures will be problematic due to any convection as well as residual cloud cover. Monday night into Tuesday could see scattered convection pop-up wherever the weak cold front stalls, which favors the southern counties. Shortwave riding aloft spreads eastward across the Central Plains on Tuesday allowing an elevated warm mixed layer to spread east while the front retreats northeast as a warm front. As has been noted for the last couple of days the combination of moderate to strong shear coupled with strong instability and the added low-level shear along/north of the warm front signal the increasing likelihood of severe storms along and north of the warm front. Models have been trending lifting the warm front further north over the past couple of runs, pushing the convection and severe threat from northern MO into IA. Wednesday could see a trailing cold front settle south through the CWA, but not before temperatures could reach 90 over the southern half of the forecast area. This boundary will become the focus for any additional rain chances. The GFS and ECMWF have settle this front to near the MO/AR border by Thursday before it stalls. Confidence has improved on this occurring and have started to lower PoPs across at least northern MO for Thursday and Friday. Convective chances increase as we head into next weekend as another moderately strong upper trough sweeps through the Rockies and forces the front north as a warm front, allowing rain chances to increase over the CWA. && .AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Monday Evening) Issued at 611 PM CDT SUN JUN 1 2014 Storms extending from southeast Nebraska into central Kansas cont to push east this evening. Using time/distance tool and hi-res model data have timed storms into the VC of STJ at 03Z and affecting the terminal between 04Z-08Z. At MCI and MKC storms will be in the VC at 04Z and affect the terminals between 05Z-09Z. Vsbys with these storms may become IFR dropping to 2-3SM at times with cigs becmg MVFR dropping to 2-3kft in storms. Storms will exit the terminals between 08Z-09Z however MVFR cigs will persist through most of the morning hours before scattering out btn 15Z-17Z. Winds will be out of the south tonight around 15kts with stronger gusts possible in storms. As the cold front approaches early tomorrow morning winds will veer to the southwest btn 10-15kts. By tomorrow afternoon the boundary will be in the VC of the terminals and winds will veer to the west btn 5-10kts. && .EAX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... KS...NONE.
