Thunderstorms can't be ruled out on a daily and nightly basis through Thursday of this week. Northwesterly winds aloft will have distrubances embedded within the flow that will track from the High Plains southeastward and across parts of Missouri. The greatest threat for storms this week will be where the slight risk sets up. Damaging winds in excess of 60 mph, large hail and heavy rainfall are the main threats. The problem with the disturbances that track close to the Ozarks is that they lay out boundaries that can cause other storms to develop, which the models don't pick up on. Night time complexes that track close or across our area this week will have a big impact on temperatures. For now, anticipate highs in the lower 90s and lows in the lower 70s.
