Overnight temperatures will range from the mid-40s to low 50s throughout the forecast period. We’re tracking the chance for a few strong/severe storms to move through Northeast Kansas, but prolonged period of rain-free time will be “the norm” over the next 10 days with plenty of sunshine too. Thursday, most of the severe weather should be well to the west of East Texas, but some areas of heavy rain will be possible. However, similar to Sunday, there may be a higher number of tornadoes, relative to other events this spring.

The severe weather moving through Kansas Tuesday already spurred a tornado in Scott Co. It does not always mean that severe weather is imminent or likely. Some of the storms will move into parts of Iowa and Missouri. Isolated tornadoes will also be possible, as the atmosphere will become a favorable environment for severe weather by this afternoon.
A new tornado warning that stretches from around Scott City into eastern portions of Scott County is in effect until 5 p.m. “Through the late evening hours, storms will push farther eastward, and finally into central Oklahoma after sunset”.
