We are only a few days away from the next meeting of the Raymore CERT (Community Emergency Response Team)! Come on out to Centerview this Thursday the 4th at 6:30 p.m. for what should be a very insightful night. Our guest for the evening will be Craig Fugate, who served as FEMA Administrator from 2009-2017 under President Obama. He will join the meeting virtually to share on his experiences- including leading the response to the 2011 Joplin tornado- and participate in some Q&A. The meeting is open to the public and all are welcome, so feel free to invite anyone you think may be interested!

TORNADO WATCH: The National Weather Service has issued a Tornado Watch for our area (including Raymore) until 1:00 AM. Remember that a "watch" indicates that conditions are favorable for a tornado to form- not that one has been spotted. As we progress through the night and the early morning hours, please make sure you are watching the weather and have multiple ways to receive alerts- including those that can wake you up during the night.

This morning's rain will last for another hour or so, and then we'll likely get a break from the storms until late tonight (roughly 10pm). Potentially severe storms will progress through our area until early Tuesday morning, so please stay weather aware tonight and have multiple ways of receiving weather information, especially during the hours you may be asleep.

A moderate (Level 4 out of 5) risk exists for parts of the forecast area, with an enhanced (Level 3) and slight (Level 2) risk extending southeastward. Greater confidence exists with storms developing into a line of storms later this evening/overnight. However, a conditional threat exists for the development of discrete storms this afternoon, dependent on how the atmosphere recovers from morning storms. Stay up to date with the forecast, and have multiple ways to receive warnings!

Raymore may see some scattered storms late tonight and into the early morning hours Monday. The greater threat for sever...

Severe storms will be possible again this evening developing across northern Missouri and moving southeast across the CWA. Damaging winds and large hail will be the main threats. Another round of strong storms will develop on Monday night into Tuesday morning, with large hail, tornadoes, and damaging hail are possible.
