FIRST WARN FORECAST: Patchy to dense fog with freezing mist into overnight, warmer Thursday
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (KCTV) - A bulk of the impactful icy conditions are done, but we still will have some mist and drizzle this evening. Temperatures are hovering near the freezing point, and if they dip below in your area, watch for some more glazing of ice on elevated surfaces.
The National Weather Service has extended a Winter Weather Advisory for several counties in Missouri and Kansas until 9 p.m.
Untreated roads and sidewalks are the main spots to watch tonight. After the drizzle moves out, we could still be left with some patchy dense fog into the overnight. A Dense Fog Advisory will go into effect at 9 pm for those along and south of I-70 and will continue until Thursday morning. Our nighttime lows don’t budge much and will be into the lower 30s.
Once the north wind picks up a bit on Thursday morning, that fog will quickly mix out. A few select communities could still have some patchy slick spots due to overnight freezing fog, but most of us will tap into the sunshine in the morning and those temperatures will turn much warmer. We are expecting to zip back above normal for Thursday afternoon with high temperatures in the mid-40s! It looks like a nice day. Friday also will be in the 40s, with a small chance for a few light showers to the south of I-70 into the evening.
Our next First Warn comes on Saturday as another storm system es through the region. At this point, we have about a 40% confidence for showers, with a small window possible of a wintry mix. The better chance for this to happen is east of Kansas City, but we could still sneak a few showers.
Super Bowl Sunday comes with chilly but dry conditions. High temperatures will only be in the 30s, but at least it looks quiet. Kickoff temperatures down into the lower 30s, falling to the upper 20s by the end of the game. Go Chiefs!
Two more First Warns are in the forecast for next week. We watching the potential for a larger storm system to come through Tuesday and Wednesday. That storm has much colder air it pulls into it, and has signals of measurable snow. This is one we will keep close tabs on, but someone in the region is likely to get some snow.
