Stark City Weather Advisories
WEATHER ALERT
This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for portions of the Missouri Ozarks and extreme southeast Kansas.
DAY ONE
Today and Tonight. Weather hazards expected
Elevated excessive rainfall risk. Elevated lightning risk. Enhanced thunderstorm wind damage risk. Enhanced tornado risk. Slight hail risk. DISCUSSION
Showers and thunderstorms will continue to push northeast from northwest Arkansas and northeast Oklahoma through the early morning hours. Storms are unlikely to be severe, but gusty winds could be possible with strong thunderstorms this morning. Heavy rainfall rates could lead to flooding where storms develop and sit over the same areas, especially within the eastern Ozarks. Areas southeast of Interstate 44 have the highest chances of excessive rainfall, with an additional 2 to 5 inches of rain expected to fall by Tuesday morning. This heavy rainfall is the basis for a Flood Watch for portions of southeast Kansas and southern Missouri, which remains in effect until 6 AM on Tuesday. This afternoon brings another round of heavy rain and severe storm chances through the area. A line of storms will develop along a cold front, and embedded supercell storms could form ahead of the cold front before merging into the line. All storms will bring the risk of damaging winds up to 60 to 80 mph, and there is a chance of embedded nocturnal tornadoes within the line if instability increases behind morning convection. Hail up to the size of quarters will also be possible. Storms will persist into Tuesday morning. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN
Tuesday through Sunday. After storms and heavy rainfall move east on Tuesday, conditions will be quiet before rain chances between 30 and 50 percent return on Friday.
