715 PM EDT Mon Jul 21 2025

Areas affected...North-central to northeastern Kansas and far
southeastern Neb

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 212315Z - 220515Z

Summary...A region of heavy rainfall and localized flash flooding
is expected to continue into the evening across portions of
north-central Kansas, as slow-moving storms develop along a
stationary surface front.  These storms are likely to produce
rainfall rates of 1-3 in/hr, with higher rates possible.  This may
result in areas of flash flooding.

Discussion...Accentuated by convection that developed earlier in
the afternoon, surface observations indicate an west-east oriented
boundary, with a strong temperature gradient, extending across
north-central Kansas.  KUEX shows storm coverage continuing to
increase along and south of the boundary, with rainfall rates over
2 in/hr within some of the stronger storms.  These storms are
supported by a pool of deep moisture (PWs at or above 2 inches)
and MUCAPEs above 3000 J/kg.  This moist and unstable air mass is
being fed by 20-30 kt southerly low level inflow.  Meanwhile, an
upper level jet streak centered to the north is helping produce
larger-scale ascent across the region.  Across Kansas, the mean
flow is relatively weak - supporting slow storm motions that are
raising the potential for heavy rates and flooding concerns.

The environment is expected to remain favorable for slow-moving,
heavy rainfall producing storms well into the evening before these
storms are expected to eventually propagate further south.  Before
waning and/or moving out of the region, neighborhood probabilities
from both the HREF and RRFS indicate that additional amounts of 2
inches or more are likely over the next 6 hours, raising flash
flooding concerns within the highlighted area.
