This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for portions of the Missouri
Ozarks and extreme southeast Kansas.

.DAY ONE...Tonight.

Weather hazards expected...

  Limited hail risk.
  Limited thunderstorm wind damage risk.
  Elevated lightning risk.
  Limited excessive rainfall risk

DISCUSSION...

Thunderstorms have begun to develop across southern Kansas and
northern Oklahoma this evening, and are expected to push east 
into the area after 10pm. There will be the potential for damaging
straight line winds and hail up to the size of quarters for 
locations along and west of Interstate 49 with a few of the 
storms. Cloud to ground lightning and locally heavy rain are the 
expected risk east of Interstate 49 tonight. 

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Friday through Wednesday.

Showers and thunderstorms will likely be moving east across the
area Thursday morning. Additional storms may develop Thursday
afternoon and evening, generally along and south of a Branson to
Rolla line. If enough instability can develop after the morning 
convection a few strong storms with hail and gusty winds will be 
possible. Locally heavy rainfall will also be possible and could 
lead to a localized flooding risk on Thursday. 

Additional showers and thunderstorms will move across the region
Thursday night through the day on Friday. Locally heavy rainfall 
and a minor localized flooding risk will occur again on Friday. 

Thunderstorm chances then return to the area next week. 

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Spotter activation may be needed later today or tonight for 
locations west of Interstate 49.
