This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for portions of the Missouri

Ozarks and extreme southeast Kansas.



.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight.



Weather hazards expected...



  Limited lightning risk.

  Elevated fire weather risk.



DISCUSSION...



Elevated fire conditions are expected to develop again by mid morning

through the afternoon hours, due to the combination of warm 

temperatures in the 70s, low relative humidity values of 20-35%, 

and wind gusts up to 30 mph at times.



Scattered showers and maybe a rumble of thunder or two will be

possible late this morning into early this evening. There will be

the potential for an isolated wind gust up to 40 mph with this 

activity, but not all locations will be impacted and rainfall

amounts will be light with any showers that do develop.



.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Sunday through Friday.



A band of mainly rain will move into and through the region 

Sunday afternoon into Monday morning. A few isolated storms will 

be possible with this activity on Sunday. A light wintry mix of 

precipitation is also possible, mainly north of Highway 54 Sunday 

evening into Monday morning.



There will be the potential for showers and storms developing and

moving across the area at times through out the week as couple 

systems moves through the region. There will be dry periods 

between rounds of rain. There are still questions on the exact 

timing of these system. Lightning and heavy rainfall could be 

possible at times with these rounds of showers and storms.



.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...



  Spotter activation will not be needed through tonight.
