The episode as NWS EAX wrote it up.
Widespread wind, hail, and flooding occurred, starting overnight on the 24th into the 25th. While flooding was the biggest problem, mainly in Missouri for the morning of the 25th, severe weather moved in and brought a wide area of severe reports across the area.
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 25, 9:59 PM CST, 2 hours 24 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE KANSAS CITY/PLEASANT HILL MO
1059 PM CDT Thu Jun 25 2015
.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 402 PM CDT THU JUN 25 2015
SURFACE OBSERVATIONS INDICATE THAT THERE IS A STATIONARY BOUNDARY
SEPARATING RATHER COOL AIR, CHARACTERIZED BY TEMPERATURES IN THE 70S
NORTH OF THE BOUNDARY AND TEMPERATURES WELL INTO THE 90S SOUTH OF
THE BOUNDARY. THE BEST IDEA OF WHERE THIS BOUNDARY IS CURRENTLY
LOCATED IS GENERALLY ALONG A E-W LINE BETWEEN KCNK AND KIRK. THIS
BOUNDARY ALSO SHOWS UP ON VISIBLE SATELLITE IMAGERY AS A MORE DENSE
STRATO-CU DECK ALONG THAT PREVIOUSLY NOTED E-W LINE. RADAR TRENDS
AND IR IMAGERY INDICATES THAT CONVECTION HAS ALREADY COMMENCE IN SE
NEBRASKA, BUT THIS APPEARS TO ASSOCIATED WITH A SUBTLE SHORTWAVE
TROUGH MOVING ACROSS NE KANSAS AND SE NEBRASKA. THESE STORMS ALSO
APPEAR TO BE NORTH OF THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY AND LIKELY ELEVATED IN
NATURE.
THE CONVECTIVE EVOLUTION FOR TODAY AND TONIGHT IS STARTING TO TAKE
SOME SHAPE, AS THE BOUNDARY IS A GOOD PLACE TO LOOK FOR INITIAL
CONVECTION. THE ATMOSPHERE IS STILL A BIT CAPPED OFF, SO DEVELOPMENT
IS MAYBE STILL ANOTHER COUPLE HOURS AWAY, BUT AS THAT SHORTWAVE
TROUGH MOVES INTO THE AREA THERE COULD BE ENOUGH SUPPORT FOR ASCENT
TO GET SOME STORMS TO GO UP ALONG THAT MAXIMIZED
CONFLUENCE/CONVERGENCE ALONG THE SURFACE BOUNDARY. AS FAR AS SEVERE
WEATHER IS CONCERNED, THERE IS PLENTY OF INSTABILITY AND SHEAR TO
FORM SOME ORGANIZED ROTATING STORMS. THE AREA WITH THE BEST
COMBINATION OF CAPE AND SHEAR IS RIGHT ALONG AND NORTH OF THE
BOUNDARY, WHERE THE N/NE WINDS MAXIMIZE THE DEEP LAYER SHEAR.
HOWEVER IN THIS ENVIRONMENT IT'S MORE LIKELY THAT STORMS WILL BE
ELEVATED, SO HAIL WOULD BE THE PRIMARY CONCERN ACROSS FAR NE KANSAS
AND NORTHERN MISSOURI. ALONG AND SOUTH OF THE BOUNDARY CAPE IS
MAXIMIZED AROUND 3500 TO 4500 J/KG OF ML CAPE, BUT THE SHEAR ISN'T
QUITE AS HIGH. SO ESSENTIALLY THE BIGGEST CONCERN FOR SEVERE WEATHER
WILL BE ALONG AND NORTH OF INTERSTATE 70 AS THAT BOUNDARY WILL SAG A
BIT SOUTH WITH TIME THROUGH THE EVENING.
THE MAIN CONCERN FOR THIS EVENT WILL TAKE SHAPE DURING THE OVERNIGHT
HOURS WHEN A MORE SIGNIFICANT TROUGH, WHICH IS CURRENTLY UPSTREAM IN
THE SD/NE BORDER REGION WILL MOVE INTO THE AREA. THIS WAVE WILL
CERTAINLY BRING ENOUGH SUPPORT FOR MID LEVEL ASCENT TO KICK OFF
WIDESPREAD THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY THROUGHOUT THE FORECAST AREA. DEEP
LAYER SHEAR VECTORS OUT OF THE WEST, AND ORIENTED PARALLEL TO THE
BOUNDARY WILL AID IN A TRAINING TYPE OF STORM EVOLUTION, WHERE
MULTIPLE STORMS WILL GO OVER THE SAME AREAS. THIS MIGHT BE A MOOT
DETAIL CONSIDERING THE WIDESPREAD NATURE OF THE STORMY ACTIVITY.
PWAT VALUES ARE RATHER HIGH, WITH THE LATEST NAM INDICATING 1.8 TO
2.2 INCHES OF PWAT THROUGH THE LATE EVENING AND OVERNIGHT PERIOD.
CURRENT SPC MESOANLYSIS INDICATES NEARLY 1.6 TO 1.9 INCHES OF PWAT
IN PLACE ALREADY. SO CONSIDERING THE AMOUNT OF MOISTURE IN PLACE,
THERE IS HIGH CONFIDENCE IN WIDESPREAD MODERATE TO HEAVY RAIN ACROSS
THE ENTIRE AREA. THE HIGHLIGHTED CORRIDOR FOR THE BEST CHANCE FOR
THE HIGHEST RAIN TOTALS IS A BIT UNCLEAR, WITH CURRENT QPF AND POP
FORECAST INDICATING AN AREA ALONG AND JUST NORTH OF THE MISSOURI
RIVER AS BEING THE FAVORED CORRIDOR FOR THE 4+ INCH RAIN TOTALS, BUT
MORE RECENT MODEL RUNS, NAMELY THE 18Z NAM AND THE 12Z GFS INDICATE
A BIT OF A SOUTHERN SHIFT TO THAT CORRIDOR. SO ANYWHERE BETWEEN HWY
36 AND HWY 50 APPEAR TO BE IN THE CROSS HAIRS FOR HEAVY RAIN. WHILE
THE SOILS SOUTH OF THE MO RIVER HAVE DRIED OUT A BIT OVER THE LAST
FEW DAYS, WITH PERSISTENT DRY WEATHER IT WILL STILL ONLY LIKELY HOLD
A COUPLE INCHES BEFORE SATURATION. AREAS NORTH OF THE MO RIVER ARE
SATURATED AND ANY HEAVY RAIN ACROSS THAT AREA WILL LIKELY RESULT IN
FLASH FLOODING. AREA STREAMS ARE ALREADY SWOLLEN FROM RECENT HEAVY
RAINS, SO CAPACITY BEFORE FLOODING IN THESE STREAMS IS MINIMAL. THE
RESULT WILL LIKELY BE A WIDESPREAD FLOODING/FLASH FLOODING THREAT
FOR THE ENTIRE AREA, WITH JUST ABOUT EVERYONE GETTING OVER AN INCH
OF RAIN, WITH SOME AREAS GETTING 4+ INCHES OF RAIN. AND OF COURSE
LOCALIZED AREAS COULD SEE PERHAPS 6+ INCHES OF RAIN. WHILE STORMS
COULD START AS EARLY AS THIS EVENING, THE BULK OF THE STORMY
ACTIVITY WILL TAKE PLACE OVERNIGHT BETWEEN MIDNIGHT AND 9AM, WITH
RAIN LIKELY ONGOING THROUGH THE MORNING. EXPECT GRADUAL
DISSIPATION/MOVEMENT SOUTH OF THE RAIN THROUGH THE DAYTIME ON
FRIDAY, EVENTUALLY CLEARING THE AREA BY FRIDAY AFTERNOON.
SURFACE RIDGE NOSES INTO THE AREA FOR THE WEEKEND, BRINGING
TEMPERATURES BACK INTO THE 80S FOR HIGHS, LEADING TO A MUCH KINDER
AND GENTLER WEEKEND. BY EARLY NEXT WEEK, THE SURFACE RIDGE MOVES
EAST AND SOUTHERLY WINDS RETURN TO THE AREA BRINGING WARMTH AND
MOISTURE BACK TO THE FORECAST AREA. THIS WILL HELP REINTRODUCE SOME
RAIN CHANCES, BUT OF COURSE THAT FAR IT IT'S TOUCH TO GAUGE
TIMING/IMPACTS, SO WILL REFINE THOSE PERIODS AS THEY APPROACH.

.AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Friday Night)
Issued at 1100 PM CDT THU JUN 25 2015
Multiple rounds of thunderstorms with heavy rain to impact the
terminals overnight. Main threat with these storms will be heavy
rainfall and flooding. Storms are developing over north central
Kansas and moving into northwest Missouri at this time and will begin
to iapproach KSTJ and KMCI around 08Z...then move east and south to
KMKC and KIXD. By around 12Z the storms will have moved east but a
lingering MVFR or IFR ceiling will likely persist until mid morning.
