You are looking at an outlook that is part of the medium range forecast (the outlook for days 4-8). The most important thing to note is that lack of a risk does not mean zero risk. Generally speaking, confidence has to be pretty high for the Storm Prediction Center to have an outlook area this far into the future.
If you bookmark this page, it will continue to update with each new outlook that is issued.

DISCUSSION
Significant low-level moisture will remain offshore through the middle of the weekend. However, by Sunday and especially Monday, the GFS and ECMWF both show mid 60s dewpoints inland perhaps as far north as the Mid-Mississippi Valley. Once this moisture moves inland, some severe weather is possible. Greatest concern at this time is Day8/Tuesday as both the ECMWF and GFS (as well as their ensemble mean) have a strong, positively tilted mid-level trough moving into the southern Plains with surface cyclogenesis. Despite the mid 60s dewpoints inland, current forecast instability from the ECMWF and GFS remains quite weak. This combined with uncertainty regarding timing and evolution of the trough precludes any significant severe weather concern at this time. However, this period will continue to be monitored as the details become more clear.
