A couple rounds of thunderstorms are set to make their way across the Ozarks tonight.
The National Weather service says a line of showers and scattered thunderstorms will slowly decrease this evening from the Truman Lake region through the Springfield metro area and into the Table Rock Lake region. Cloud to ground lightning and the potential for localized flash flooding will be the primary potential hazards from this activity.
A Flash Flood Warning goes until 1:00 a.m. Saturday for Greene, Southeastern Cedar, Southwestern Polk and Northeastern Dade Counties.
Meteorologists say thunderstorms may then increase in coverage later tonight over portions of southeastern Kansas and western Missouri. Frequent lightning and heavy downpours will accompany these storms. Flooding remains a possibility if storms track over the same area.
A Flash Flood Watch for counties in the western Ozarks expires on Saturday morning.
Looking ahead to Saturday, thunderstorm chances will spread from the Kansas border eastward to the highway 65 corridor Saturday morning, before ending early Saturday afternoon.
