(IntegrityWeather.com) — Another round of elevated storms is forecast to develop across southern Iowa and northern Missouri late tonight, slowly propagating eastward into Illinois through Saturday morning.
While an initial, brief window for localized severe wind gusts, large hail, and a weak tornado remains possible, the primary hazard will quickly transition to heavy rainfall.
As of recent analysis and guidance updates, a spread remains regarding the corridor of heaviest moisture totals with the latest trends highlighting the core over far southeast Iowa to northeast Missouri.
Despite some uncertainty, persistent training of storms over saturated soil will significantly enhance the risk for flash flooding across the yellow highlighted area.
Localized rain amounts of 3 to 6+ inches will be possible, with precipitation expected to gradually taper off from west to east by late Saturday morning.
