Daily chances of rainfall to end this week
Thankfully, the early summer feel will linger for Monday. Sadly, it will be the only day this week that I can guarantee we will stay dry, as daily chances of rain and thunderstorms kick off on Tuesday.
The first major wave of rain is set to arrive Tuesday night and carry into the start of the day Wednesday. A stationary boundary will park roughly over the Ozarks, which will allow additional waves of rain and thunderstorms to track across our area.
This week alone, I am forecasting the Ozarks to be under the gun of 3 to 4 inches of rain. In localized pockets, I would not be surprised to see some rain gauges measure closer to 5-6″ by the end of the week.
After receiving 13″ of rain in April and more than 7.5″ in May, soils are highly saturated along with elevated river and lake levels. Additional heavy rain will cause major concerns for further flooding damage.
