WEATHER: Plains at risk for severe storms while heat returns to Northeast.
Very heavy rainfall was falling across parts of eastern Kansas and western Missouri on Saturday morning, while gusty winds up to 75 mph have been reported in Kansas as well. Some storms are also firing in parts of Illinois and Indiana, too.
The storms will eventually lose strength by mid to late morning, however, as the system moves closer to Chicago by midday storms, some severe, could fire up again. Meanwhile a frontal system approaching from the north and west will also reignite severe storms in parts of the Dakotas, and into parts of Iowa and Minnesota. A couple lines of strong to severe storms are likely there late Saturday and early Sunday.
A stalled stationary boundary continues to interact with tropical moisture in the Southeast. There have been reports of over 11 inches of rain in parts of the swamps west of Gainesville, Florida. Some of the towns in parts of that region of Florida have reported flooding, but it appears the heaviest of the rain is falling mainly over swampland.
