It will miss the metro to the south this time.
SCOTT:
There is still a pretty good chance in the Metro... although places like St. Joseph might be slighted...

I saw that there is a tornado warning in Saline County, are we going to see tornadic storms here in the metro?
SHELLEY:
There are no tornado warnings right now... the threat of tornados will be very isolated.

J. - water vapor loop appears to show a jet-streak heading NE from Mexico, perhaps right now over central NM - if that continues towards central Kansas, would that increase the lift and potential for storms - would it increase the WAA and low-level jet at all?
Satellite has always been something I look closely at, just in case.
BTW we've had Tornado Warnings out in central Kansas around Saline and Lawrence, apparently, though I haven't heard of any touchdowns - wind damage though. And I think that the bulk of the MCS will graze us to the south, but other stuff could pop up as isentropic lift gets going - the front and the 850 mb front, I'd guess, are in a prime position for overrunning later - let us hope!!!

DOG:
Let us know how much rain you end up with! Tonight is just one chance... there is also Monday/Tuesday!

I've been lookint at the track of tonight's storms on www.wunderground. How is it that storms can move in almost the opposite direction? Sometimes towards each other? I thought they usually followed the jet stream.
HI, DWIGHT:
Storm SYSTEMS (ie, the upper level storm) will follow the jet stream. Individual THUNDERSTORMS can really move independently.
