Sunny and quiet this afternoon

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (KCTV) - Sunshine takes over this afternoon with temperatures rising to the low 70s. Winds will be light between 5 to 15 mph.

MIDWEEK: As we move forward into Tuesday, we will begin picking up wind gusts out of the southwest as a warm front and cold front combination begin to sweep through the area from the west, tracking east. Cloud cover will build throughout the day with better chances for showers and a few thunderstorms, likely towards the Iowa border in the early to mid-evening. A few storms may be strong to severe with hail as the primary storm threat for the northern border.

Wednesday forecast shows scattered showers and thunderstorms giving us a First Warn, which will extend into Thursday as widespread scattered rain and thunderstorms continue. Temperatures during this time will peak in the upper 70s on Tuesday, just before the storm system enters, dropping to the lower 70s for both Wednesday and Thursday.

WEEKEND: As we move towards Friday, some of our long-range data indicates a prolonged pattern of wet weather that expands into Friday. Others still indicate it will exit the area, but at this time, we are increasing the rain chances to 30% Friday with the potential of a First Warn.

Moving into the weekend, we should see a breather from showers and storms Saturday as temperatures fall to the upper 60s and lower 70s.The
