Today’s Video:
As we head through the day, best storm risks set-up across the western and southwest counties, with many areas avoiding rain today. Forecast radar at 7pm shown below:
That activity will tend to weaken, but then we’ll see an uptick in scattered storms enter the western counties after midnight, then slowly loose their intensity as they reach the east-central areas in the morning Tuesday as more stable/drier air will linger east. Some local heavy rain likely across west-central counties into our Tuesday morning.
Several dry hours on Tuesday will heat us up as the humidity really spikes! This fuels a possible cluster of storms across especially north-central Missouri Tuesday night. This area is outlined in a severe threat, which can be expanded south as we get closer.
High likelihood of wet weather mid to late week with a stalled boundary and a cut-off system reaching us by the end of the week-weekend.
Rainfall next 7 days, likely is underdone especially south.
