Update: Cowley Co. Warning Sparks Slight Risks Spanning OK, KS, MO Today; Mid-Atlantic Tomorrow

We've been tracking the severe thunderstorm warning in Cowley County, KS, earlier today, Sunday, June 21. That activity has evolved, prompting the Storm Prediction Center (SPC) to issue Slight Risk outlooks for a broader area.

What a Slight Risk means: The SPC uses this category to highlight areas where isolated severe thunderstorms could develop. These storms may produce damaging wind gusts up to 60 mph or higher, hail around golf ball size, and perhaps an isolated tornado, but widespread severe weather isn't expected.

Today, Sunday, June 21, Slight Risks cover key cities including Oklahoma City and Moore, OK; Tulsa, OK; Wichita, KS; Joplin, Springfield, Kansas City, and St. Louis, MO. Storms from earlier Kansas activity could intensify, bringing these isolated threats into the evening.

Looking ahead to Monday, June 22, the Slight Risk shifts eastward to Delaware, Maryland, North Carolina, and Virginia, where similar isolated storms may fire along outflow boundaries or sea breeze collisions.

Stay vigilant: Review your severe weather plan, know where to shelter, and monitor your local National Weather Service office for watches or warnings. Radar apps and alerts are your best friends.
