What we’re tracking

  • Strong and severe storms possible tonight and Saturday
  • Very windy, even without storms
  • More storms Sunday

We’ll have another chance for storms later this evening as the upper level system continues to move eastward. We’ll also see very strong winds, without the storms, as this system passes through. Wind gusts through Sunday will likely be on the order of 40-45 mph.

The best chance to see storms develop this evening will be in the eastern portion of our area and into western Missouri. All modes of severe weather will be possible with this activity, including a threat for a few tornadoes.

Additional rounds of storms are also possible for Saturday and Sunday afternoon/evening hours. There are some indications that the strongest storms may occur on Saturday. Once again, all types of severe weather appear to be possible Saturday evening.

Moral of the story: make sure you have multiple ways to receive warnings in the coming days, and pay attention to weather updates between now and Sunday.
