Today was another summer-like day in central Missouri with high temperatures in the 80s, but we are going back to seasonal weather including spring time thunderstorms.
Showers and thunderstorms return for Wednesday. Rain will be heavy at times, especially in the afternoon and evening. The good news? The severe weather threat looks low and sunshine is back for the weekend! pic.twitter.com/kMSCM6fxOP

WEDNESDAY’S OUTLOOK
Scattered showers and thunderstorms will begin in the morning and a few of these could be on the strong side with pea to nickel size hail and 40-50 mph wind gusts. In addition, locally heavy rain is possible in these storms.
Showers and thunderstorms will continue to become widespread through the afternoon and into the evening. The severe weather threat for these will be low, due to a lack of instability, but heavy rain will remain a concern with ample moisture in place.
Showers and thunderstorms can be tricky to determine where the highest totals set up, but the most likely areas for heavy rain are south of Highway 50 and along the I-44 corridor and pointing south.
Localized flooding of small creeks and streams will be possible and localized flash flooding can’t be ruled out as thunderstorms move over the same locations.

The Storm Mode Index for Wednesday is at a 1 (0 to 5 scale) through the day as the severe weather threat looks fairly low. The main concern will be localized flooding through the day as heavy rain falls. Additionally, small hail is possible in the morning.
HEADING INTO THE WEEKEND
Thursday will feature lingering showers in the morning, but some sunshine is possible in the afternoon with highs only reaching the upper 60s.
Sunshine will return in abundance for Friday and Saturday with temperatures warming into the lower 70s on Friday and the middle 70s on Saturday.
Sunday will feature a few extra clouds, but highs will be back near 80°.
LOOKING AHEAD
Next week will feature passing showers and thunderstorm chances in the beginning of the week with well above average temperatures to start the week. We will likely be in a similar pattern as this week with a cool down for the middle of the week.
