Good evening bloggers,
Watch the 10 PM newscast on NBC Action News as we track these thunderstorms forming on the slow moving backdoor cold front. A SEVERE T-STORM WATCH remains in effect until midnight for our northern counties. We have had an isolated thunderstorm near Lee's Summit redevelop and I have, what hopefully will be, a great time-lapse that we will show at 10 PM (Larry Seward, one of our reporters, just reported small hail from this thunderstorm). I actually have enough material for a 30 minute weather special tonight, but of course I only get 3 1/2 minutes, maybe.
The last two GFS runs have had heat through day 16, but the European model has had a few runs in a row that bring the cold fronts through us. So, this is something we will address tomorrow in the blog.
T-Storms are now lined up from just north of Trenton east into Illinois, and near Falls City, NE. Will they continue all night? If they do, then we have a good chance of rain. This is another thing we will be tracking at 10 PM tonight.
Have a great evening!
Gary
