Weather Alert Day: Severe storms leave behind wind damage and power outages
The ABC 17 Stormtrack Weather Alert Day has come to an end after storms exited Mid-Missouri by around 7:00 p.m.

There will still residents without power in Camden, Benton, Cole, Boone, and Callaway counties as of 10:00 p.m.

Our ABC 17 News crews observed possible tornado damage in Callaway and Boone counties.
More than 3" of rain fell across much of Mid-Missouri since Friday, prompting Flash Flood Warnings and covered roads and low water crossings.

As a front settled over southern Missouri this weekend, it produced several rounds of rain and strong storms south of I-44, though damage reports were minimal in our area.

The front lifts through the area on Sunday, and temperatures will warm to the 60s and 70s as rain continues. A cold front arriving Sunday afternoon will then trigger the development of severe storms into the evening.
The severe risk increases as early as noon on Sunday, but current forecasts indicate that severe storms will first track into western Mid-MO by 2 to 3 PM, including places like Marshall, Sedalia, and the Lake. Storms progress east through 3 to 6 PM, impacting Columbia and Jefferson City, and then eastern Missouri in places like Owensville, Montgomery City, and Vandalia by 6 to 9 PM. Severe storms exit before midnight.

Practically all of Mid-Missouri and areas south are under a 3 out of 5 risk of severe storms, according to the Storm Prediction Center. This indicates scattered to widespread storms capable of moderate damage.

All cards are on the table Easter Sunday afternoon and evening; all severe hazards, including tornadoes, will be possible with a line of storms tracking through the area from 3 PM to 10 PM.

Flooding will be a persistent problem through the weekend with 2 to 4 or more inches of rainfall for much of the area.
You should be where you need to be for Easter weekend ahead of the flooding and storms. Make sure you have the ABC 17 Stormtrack weather app to remain aware of changing weather conditions, including lightning strikes near your location and any severe weather warnings that may be issued.
