The weather this week has been stellar and of course with the 3-day Memorial Day holiday coming up- here comes the rain again (apologies to Annie Lenox).
Right now- the best chance of thunderstorms looks to be Monday (Memorial Day) into early Tuesday. Smaller rain chances do exist beginning late Saturday locally.
Rain amounts are increasing locally with each new weather model run- as shown on the latest NWS-HPC 5-day forecasted precipitation amounts image.
An unusual for this time of year extra-tropical low pressure area in the eastern Gulf of Mexico is actually retrograding west- then north along the Mississippi River this weekend.
In addition- a weak cool front to our north today will slowly sag south into the Kansas City Metroregion Monday and interact with the Gulf low that had moved north.

Rain chances will be earlier and higher in the Missouri Lakes (late Saturday-Sunday) region than in the Kansas Lakes areas (late Sunday through Monday).
No widespread severe storms are expected- but some of the storms toward Monday COULD briefly pulse-up to severe limits.
Of course- any updates here on CSW....
