As I explained in my previous post, a stationary front is a great indicator of where heavy rain will likely fall; however, that stationary front is now moving northeast as a warm front.

Over the last 24 hours, Doppler radar had estimated over 6 inches of rain across sections of southwest Missouri. We've seen that boundary responsible for the flooding rain draped across NE OK and SW MO over the last 24 hours. This will take rain chances overnight well to our north.

Wednesday is the first full day of Spring, and it's going to feel like it! Temperatures with some sunshine will easily climb into the 70s. Some spots across the River Valley may top out near 80. We'll be significantly capped throughout the afternoon, so we don't expect showers and storms to develop. On Thursday, a frontal boundary will come back into the area, and that may spark more showers and storms to develop. We'll comment on the severe weather chances for Thursday in an upcoming blog post.
