For the second day in a row, strong to severe thunderstorms are forecast for parts of the Ozarks Tuesday.
The National Weather Service says storms are expected to move through southwest Missouri starting sometime after 7 p.m., with the heaviest storms moving through the Springfield metro area around 1 a.m.
Forecasters say the highest risk for severe impacts will be west of Highway 65, where hail up to the size of golf balls and damaging winds will be possible with the strongest storms.
The tornado threat is very low.
Much of the area is under a Level 2 “slight risk” for severe weather, while the eastern Ozarks is under a Level 1 “marginal risk.”
