High instability fuels Monday severe storm risk, rotation possible
Warm, muggy air will linger over portions of Ontario and Quebec to start the workweek, providing the instability needed to fuel a renewed round of thunderstorms for our Monday. Some of Monday's storms could turn severe—and portions of Quebec could see the risk for a tornado or two. DON'T MISS: Active weather that arrived on Sunday will continue into the overnight hours. Widespread rain and embedded thunderstorms will persist Sunday night into early Monday for parts of cottage country east of Georgian Bay, as well as into southwestern Quebec. Some areas could see more than 70 mm of rain through Monday as precipitation lingers along this slow-moving boundary. Localized flooding is likely during this rainfall event. Additionally, the risk for non-severe storms will build across the Greater Toronto Area through the pre-dawn hours Monday as the boundary sinks southward. An approaching cold front will send temperatures and humidity falling to more comfortable levels. But heat and humidity ahead of that front will provide energy for thunderstorms to develop—some of which could turn severe. A slight risk for severe thunderstorms will build around the Niagara Peninsula and portions of eastern Ontario as the approaching cold front slides into pockets of higher instability lurking over the region. The greatest threat from the strongest storms here will be damaging wind gusts, large hail, and heavy rainfall. Meanwhile, over in Quebec, the thunderstorm threat will peak in the early to mid-afternoon hours southeast of Montreal. These storms could produce damaging wind gusts, large hail, and heavy rainfall. A bit of rotation in the atmosphere could allow one or two tornadoes to develop across southeastern Quebec on Monday afternoon. Stay alert for rapidly changing conditions and pay close attention to watches and warnings in your area. There's a bit of uncertainty with the timing and coverage of the storms in southern Quebec given the tight temperature gradient across the region. Check out that temperature swing across the province—Monday will see a feels-like of 15 in Quebec City at the same time we'll have a feels-like of 37 down in Sherbrooke.

Tracking scattered t-storms, summer heat
Widely scattered thunderstorms will continue to fire across parts of Northwest Missouri and Northeast Kansas Saturday afternoon and evening, as a front passes through the region. A few storms may produce gusty winds, heavy rain, and small hail. Partly cloudy skies, and a 40% chance of t-storms will linger into the overnight hours, with mid 80s before sunset giving way to lows in the mid to lower 70s. Breezy southwest winds at 10-15 mph will become light after midnight. Rain and thunderstorm chances will fall to around 20% Sunday and Monday, with seasonably hot temperatures lingering as highs remain in the upper 80s to near 90 degrees. Several more opportunities for thunderstorm activity are expected to build into the area by the middle of next week, as an active pattern returns to the region.
