Refer to the image below and you can see the area that's included in a slight-risk for severe thunderstorms later today and tonight.
The Kansas City MetroRegion is included in this area.
According to the Storm Prediction Center in Norman-OK in the first "Day-1" outlook this Saturday morning- meteorologists say "AS A RETURN OF MID/UPPER 60S SURFACE DEWPOINTS OCCURS- STRONG HEATING ALONG A NARROW CORRIDOR FROM PARTS OF EASTERN KANSAS THROUGH NORTHERN MISSOURI/NORTHERN ILLINOIS IS EXPECTED TO CONTRIBUTE TO MIXED LAYER CAPE ON THE ORDER OF 1500-3000 J/KG. AND- FRONTAL FORCING SHOULD BE SUFFICIENT TO SUPPORT A BROKEN LINE OF STORMS- WITH ADDITIONAL CONVECTION POSSIBLE WHERE INHIBITION WEAKENS NEAR SURFACE TROUGH SOUTHWESTWARD ACROSS PARTS OF SOUTHERN KANSAS."That's good enough for me. Watch for possible watches- and warnings later today inside the green lines.
