NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND STORMS WILL CONTINUE TO DEVELOP THROUGH THE
EARLY MORNING HOURS WITH LOW LEVEL JET/MOISTURE TRANSPORT FOCUSED
OVER CENTRAL/SOUTH CENTRAL KANSAS. MEANWHILE ANOTHER COMPLEX OF
STORMS OVER NORTHERN KANSAS IS BEING DRIVEN BY AN UPPER LEVEL
WAVE PIVOTING EAST ACROSS THE DAKOTAS/NEBRASKA. THIS ACTIVITY
WILL COLLIDE INTO ON-GOING ACTIVITY OVER THE AREA. THERE IS
SOME POTENTIAL FOR SEVERE STORMS IN CENTRAL KANSAS EARLY THIS
MORNING BUT THINGS SHOULD TRANSITION TO MAINLY A HEAVY
RAIN/FLOODING THREAT GIVEN VERY HIGH PRECIPITABLE WATER AIRMASS
THAT IS BEING OVERTURNED BY NUMEROUS SLOW MOVING STORMS. THE
SHOWERS/STORMS WILL GRADUALLY SHIFT SOUTH OF THE AREA BY LATE
THIS MORNING, AS THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH PIVOTS EAST ACROSS THE
CENTRAL PLAINS TODAY. SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE WILL THEN BUILD
SOUTHWARD INTO KANSAS AND BRING SLIGHTLY COOLER/DRIER AIR(LESS
HUMIDITY) TO THE REGION FOR TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY. THE DRY
WEATHER PATTERN IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE THROUGH THURSDAY ALONG
WITH TEMPERATURES GRADUALLY WARMING BACK INTO THE 90S.
HEADING INTO FRIDAY MODELS REMAIN CONSISTENT SHOWING A UPPER LEVEL
WAVE EJECTING FROM THE ROCKIES AND MOVING EASTWARD ACROSS THE
CENTRAL PLAINS. THIS WILL BRING THE NEXT CHANCE OF STORMS TO KANSAS
AND SOME OF THEM COULD BECOME STRONG/SEVERE FRIDAY AFTERNOON/NIGHT.
THE CHANCES OF STORMS WILL CONTINUE FOR SATURDAY AS MODELS SHOW THE
FRONTAL BOUNDARY STILL LINGERING OVER KANSAS.
