Updated Weather Outlook for April 14th/ April 15th (Tonight- into Tomorrow Morning)

[The Dawg]

Folks,

I know there is already a thread up about the possibility of severe weather today, but the latest Storm Prediction Center forecast has brought KC closer to threat then what was originally expected. Here is the latest SPC map for today.

For Kansas City (and areas close by) this looks like it could be more of an evening but most likely an overnight event. In some ways this could be a good thing; The storms having a chance to burn themselves out in Western and Central Kansas before they arrive here. However on the bad side, severe storms at night are the worst. Almost impossible to track tornadoes by eye, and it all comes down to trusting the radar system.

It wouldn't surprise me if this turns into an extreme wind even with some risk for hail when it reaches the KC area, but be mindful that tornadoes will also be a factor. At this point it all depends on the timing, and how isolated these super cells that will be forming become. Today should be dry, but keep yourself prepared for this evening. Everyone be safe!
