The National Weather Service says wind gusts could hit 60 to 80 miles per hour, with hail up to the size of quarters.
Those storms should push into southeastern Kansas and southwest Missouri after 9:00 p.m. Monday and shift east overnight.
The highest risk for significant severe storms is along and west of the I-49 corridor, where a Level 3 “enhanced” risk for severe weather exists.
The Springfield metro area and eastern Ozarks are under a Level 2 “slight risk” for severe storms.
