Thursday's Outlook

Friday's Outlook

Saturday's Outlook

Sunday's Outlook

On Thursday, while morning storms will bring a threat of heavy rainfall, additional severe storms with large hail, damaging wind gusts and tornadoes will flare up later in the afternoon and evening from central and eastern Oklahoma and far north Texas into Iowa and eastern Nebraska.  If thunderstorms can remain discrete, rather than in line segments, in Oklahoma and Kansas, the threat of tornadoes will be higher.

This includes Kansas City,  Tulsa, Okla.,Omaha, Neb. and Des Moines, Ia.  

The severe threat Friday may arise yet again in parts of Oklahoma and eastern Kansas, then shifting east into northern Arkansas, Missouri, eastern Iowa, Illinois, western Kentucky, Indiana, southern Michigan and western Ohio.  Large hail and tornadoes are once again a threat, particularly along the southern edge of this severe area from Oklahoma into the Ozarks. 

Saturday, the severe threat limps slowly east from southern Michigan to northeast Texas, with the severe threats shifting to a more damaging wind and large hail threat.  That said, a few tornadoes can't be ruled out Saturday.

Sunday, the Plains and Midwest finally get a break from the severe barrage, as the threat of damaging winds and hail shifts into the Northeast.  

In addition to the severe weather threat over the next few days, flash flooding and river floodingwill be a continued concern due to heavy rainfall in the Midwest.
