Monday Afternoon: Find the warm front! It's slowly lifting north allowing for humidity to surge into the region. The humidity is certainly noticeable this afternoon. A stray storm is possible tonight. Watching for strong to severe storms for Tuesday. #MidMo Wx#MoWx#MidMo
I think there’s still a lot to be skeptical of with Tuesday’s storm chances. Be prepared for strong to severe storms, but there are quite a few limiting factors that could play in too. I think the biggest threat will be closer to the Missouri/Iowa border #MidMo Wx#MoWx#MidMo
Tuesday will be the day that we need to watch for the potential of strong to severe thunderstorms in mid-Missouri. At this time the KOMU 8 Storm Mode Index is at a 2 (0 to 5 scale) because there could be issues and you’ll want to stay updated. (1/6) #MidMo Wx#MoWx#MidMo
First Alert: It’s looking like an active start to the new work week! We’ll see chances of showers and a few thunderstorms Monday night with higher chances on Tuesday. A few storms could be strong to severe in this time frame. 1/2 #MidMo Wx#MoWx#MidMo
The first round of activity will have the potential to limit instability for the second round in the late afternoon. We will also need to watch storm coverage, as storm cells look to be fairly scattered. (3/6) #MidMo Wx#MidMo#MoWx
The Storm Prediction Center has placed an enhanced risk of severe weather across northern parts of Missouri into Iowa. This will likely shift in the days ahead, but shows the greatest potential exists across northern Missouri into Iowa. (5/6) #MidMo Wx#MoWx#MidMo
At this time, we have high confidence that we see scattered showers and thunderstorms and that we see storms in mid-Missouri. Confidence is lower on the exact timing of these showers and storms as well as the severity due to storms earlier in the day. (4/6) #MidMo Wx#MoWx#MidMo
Another summer-like day for Mid-Missouri as temperatures warm to the middle to upper 80s. There will be an increase in cloud cover today, but we're staying dry until tomorrow. Then there will be an opportunity for some strong to severe storms. Stay tuned.

Showers and storms develop in the afternoon and evening, possibly in two rounds. The first round of showers and storms will likely be fairly weak, with another round of showers and storms possible in the late afternoon and early evening. (2/6) #MidMo Wx#MoWx#MidMo
Eclipse Forecast: High and thin clouds are expected over southeastern parts of the state during the eclipse. If there's going to be clouds during an eclipse... this is the kind you want! #MidMo Wx#MoWx#MidMo
I saw a long line for the car wash this morning on my way in to work. If you didn't get the chance this morning, there is still plenty of time to get a car wash this weekend before rain chances next week🚗
