Slight risk of severe storms today, but worst is to our north

The forecast for this afternoon's thunderstorms isn't quite as bad as before, as we're under a Slight Risk instead of an Enhanced Risk. Right now it appears the best chance for severe storms is north of St. Louis.

Nevertheless, we could see one or two rounds of thunderstorms later today, and any of these storms are capable of producing high winds or tornadoes. A lack of moisture and instability, however, could make it hard for the storms to hold together. We shall see.
