Two rounds of thunderstorms are expected in the Ozarks Wednesday, with severe weather likely.
Much of southwest Missouri is under a level three “enhanced risk” for severe thunderstorms.
The first round of storms, moving from west to east in the morning hours, poses a large hail and damaging wind threat across the area.
Late afternoon and evening storms will affect areas primarily along and south of I-44. This round could be the most severe, with hail up to the size of ping pong balls, damaging wind gusts up to 70 miles per hour, and tornadoes.
Remain weather aware and have multiple ways to receive warnings.
We’ll have all the watches and warnings, along with damage reports as they come in to the National Weather Service on 93-3 and A-M 560 KWTO.
