SUNDAY SPOT SHOWERS WITH RUMBLES
The rain possible this afternoon will creep up from the south after 12pm and slowly move across the area until the early overnight hours. Note that this is only a 40% chance, and these showers are expected to be spotty, so it is possible that some of us wouldn t see any rain at all. However, most of us will, and we could hear a few rumbles of thunder with it. These will pass by very quickly with nothi
Happy May Day! Today will be very similar to yesterday with above-average temperatures and sunny skies. However, today will be much breezier with gusts up to 30 mph out of the southwest. This should send highs into the middle 80s this afternoon.

The next few days will stay dry allowing for yesterday s rainfall to be absorbed but we re still dealing with a little temperature swing from this weekend.
Rain began last night, and it won t stop until after sunset tonight. Expect a rainy, breezy & cooler Saturday. Thankfully, this weekend won t be a complete washout, as tomorrow should bring sunshine & warmth.
Most areas have seen less than a half inch of rain since last night (with the exception of the Rolla-Vichy area), and an additional 0.75-1.5 is expected through today.Minor flooding is possible with this continued rain. Remember to NEVER attempt to cross a flooded roadway. pic.twitter.com/y3Tu7pp07H Alexis Clemons (@KOMUAlexis) April 10, 2021

ADDITIONAL SATURDAY RAIN
A low pressure system is to blame for Saturday s rain. This system is actually providing severe storms and even tornadoes across the Deep South this morning, but Mid-MO will just see rain today and LOTS of it. An additional 0.75-1.5 is expected on top of what we saw last night AND what we saw just a few days ago.
