.SHORT TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
Issued at 249 AM CDT Sun Sep 13 2026

Showers and thunderstorms are still moving their way into SE
KS/SW MO early this morning. A couple of severe gusts were
recorded with this convection overnight, but so far has remained
sub-severe over the last couple of hours and it continues to
push south and weaken. Rain chances stick around through Sunday
morning and clouds begin to break up by early afternoon. There
is a 15-20% chance for a thunderstorm over the eastern portions
of the area that didn`t see rain last night. Though, there will
be quite a bit of subsidence over that area which may prevent
storms from even producing at all.

Temperatures will be in the 80s and 90s again today making it
another warm day with a stationary front making its way towards
central MO. Winds will be out of the east-southeast and will
stay around 10 mph or less. Skies will be partly cloudy
overnight.

.LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
Issued at 249 AM CDT Sun Sep 13 2026

A stationary front hangs out over the northern part of our CWA
for most of the week and brings off and on rain chances for
central MO. High pressure will sit over southern MO and keep
that area mostly dry through mid-week. Once that ridge begins
to move east later in the week, rain chances become more
widespread by the end of the week. Unfortunately, not a lot of
temperature changes or any signs of a cooldown coming this week.
In fact, there may need to be Heat Advisories issued this week
with the prolonged heat indices near 105 degrees especially for
areas south of I-44. High temperatures drop into the 80s for
next weekend.

Issued at 624 AM CDT Sun Sep 13 2026

Patchy fog has formed over JLN early this morning but will
dissipate over the next couple of hours and LIFR ceilings will
return to VFR especially with rain moving into the area. Rain
will end over the next couple of hours with clouds clearing
throughout the day. Winds will be east-southeast and less then
10 mph.
