A Pacific storm is bringing areas of low elevation rain, moderate to heavy mountain snow, and high winds to the Northwest. Strong Santa Ana winds and very dry conditions are producing elevated to critical fire weather conditions in southern California. Isolated strong to severe thunderstorms are possible through early Wednesday morning across parts of northeast Texas into western Tennessee. Read More >

A frontal boundary settled across northern Kansas, northern Missouri and central Illinois. This front was the focus area for the development of several rounds of showers and thunderstorms that impacted the region today. The first round came through during the morning, and produced mainly torrential rainfall, small hail, brief wind gusts and frequent lightning.

The second round of showers and thunderstorms developed and passed across the region during the late afternoon and evening. A segment of thunderstorms became severe along and south of Highway 34, and produced damaging wind gusts near 70 MPH. This lead to several reports of wind damage from Burlington eastward to Roseville. Additionally, prolonged torrential rainfall over already saturated grounds lead to numerous reports of flash flooding across the area.
