Storms first developed during the afternoon of June 8th, 2010, along a cold front that was pushing steadily south across Kansas. Additional storms formed north of the cold front as the overnight hours progressed into the early morning of June 9th, 2010, providing several rounds of storms for locations generally along and southeast of the Kansas Turnpike.  Many of these storms quickly became severe with wet microburst winds. However, with an extremely moist air mass in place all of the storms produced very high rainfall rates that caused widespread flooding across portions of South Central and especially Southeast Kansas.
