He says rains of two to three inches are likely with some local amounts of four to five inches. He says the storms should bring some rain to the northEAST corner of the state, which has been dry since spring rains caused some flooding.

The heavy rains in northwest Missouri early this morning leads the weather service to issue continued flood warnings for the Grand and Missouri Rivers above Kansas City and as far below Kansas City as the Boonville area.
