Today: The same frontal boundary that has been hanging around the central plains and western Great Lakes regions, will continue to provide the focus for thunderstorms today and tonight, with some possibly severe. The best chance of severe weather today exists over Missouri, Kansas, a good portion of Nebraska and the western Dakotas, with the chance moving towards Iowa, perhaps late tonight and early Wednesday. In addition to large hail and damaging winds, isolataed tornadoes are possible late this afternoon and evening over mainly Kansas, and an upgrade to a Moderate Risk may be necessary by later today over this area. Also, the storm will produce locally heavy rainfall over the some of the same areas that recieved heavy precipitation last night and early this morning. By late tonight, the main severe threat should be large hail and maybe damaging winds as the storms enter eastern Nebraska, much of Iowa and northern Missouri. Some cities that may be affected included Wichita and Kansas City later this afternoon, spreading towards the Omaha and Des Moines aareas later tonight.
Wednesday and Wednesday night: A potentially very active day exists for this time period over a good share of the northern and central plains into the western Great Lakes states. A Moderate risk of severe thunderstorms encompasses areas from eastern Nebraska and southeast South Dakota east into southern Minnesota and Iowa. This area has a threat of long-lived supercells, with tornadoes a definite possibility along with large hail and damaging winds. If you live in places such as Omaha, Des Moines, Sioux Falls SD, and the Quad Cities, Wednesday will be a good day to keep up with the latest weather i nformation. A slight risk of severe weather surrounds the moderate risk, with a chance of large hail and high winds. Heavy rain, again, will be a factor.
Thursday through Monday: There is another risk of severe weather from the Ohio Valley and lower Great Lakes westward into the central High Plains on Thursday. Chances of storms will continue over most over the nations mid-section eastward into the Ohio Valley and Great Lakes into the weekend. Severe weather potential will be determined as time goes on.
