Ray’s Note: Showers and thunderstorms possible this morning. Best chance of any severe weather will stay over Missouri SW of St. Louis back down into the very stormy plains overnight. Any storms that cross our area tonight could have some brief heavy rain. Mother’s Day weekend could be rainy at times.

A strong shot of energy in the jet stream and cold front moving into the midwest and plains early next week could jump start our severe weather potential for Monday into Monday Night. Stay tuned for more on this over the next few days.
