After off-and-on rainfall for most of Saturday, we’ll need to get through two more waves of thunderstorms in the next 24 hours. The first arrives tonight. Thunderstorms currently in Oklahoma and Kansas will cross into our area overnight. Expect to hear rumbles of thunder and pouring rain after midnight. Thankfully, the risk for severe weather tonight is relatively low. A morning lull is expected Sunday, and we might even see some sunshine.

A tornado warning was issued Friday night for parts of Christian, Greene, and Webster counties as a bowing line segment showed radar indicated signs of rotation.

Friday may have gotten off to a quiet start, but that calm won’t last. Thunderstorms are expected to fire up tonight, and rain chances will stick around through Sunday evening. A cold front moving in after sunset will spark severe weather, especially along and south of I-44. The main threats include half-dollar-sized hail, damaging winds, and localized flooding. Fortunately, the tornado risk remains low, thanks to these storms being more elevated in nature.
