T-Storms to Develop Sunday Night

Sunday will be another nice, warm, though likely cloudy, day across eastern Kansas and Missouri. 

The breezy south winds Sunday will be out ahead of a cold front that will be sweeping through Sunday night; which will also bring a chance of strong to possibly severe thunderstorms to the region. 

However, while any storms that occur Sunday evening will have the potential to produce severe weather, it is not guaranteed that many (or any) storms will develop. So, if storms develop, there will be a threat for large hail and damaging winds with the strongest storms
