DISCUSSION
TONIGHT WILL KICK OFF NUMEROUS WAVES OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
IMPACTING THE ENTIRE CWA AT TIMES THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT. THE BULK
OF THE RAIN WILL BE CENTERED FROM THURSDAY THROUGH SATURDAY IN
SOUTHEAST MISSOURI. JUST SOUTH OF OUR SOUTHERNMOST COUNTIES
(REYNOLDS MO - RANDOLPH IL) THERE IS A 70 TO 80% CHANCE OF AT
LEAST 5" OF RAIN. IF THE CORRIDOR OF HEAVIEST RAIN SHIFTS NORTH,
THESE PROBABILITIES MAY CREEP INTO THE AFOREMENTIONED COUNTIES.
FURTHER NORTH IN NORTHEAST MISSOURI AND WEST-CENTRAL ILLINOIS RAIN
IS STILL EXPECTED DURING THIS PERIOD, ALBEIT MUCH LESS THAN WHAT'S
POSSIBLE IN THE SOUTH.
