FIRST WARN FORECAST: Overnight storms move out, First Warns for more this week & weekend
We have been highlighting this evening with a First Warn for several days, and scattered storms will be on the move into the night. Thursday, Friday, and Sunday are all highlighted with First Warns as well, as rain and storms may be impactful at times. But, new information has adjusted the timing of when we expect rain on some of these days. Here is the latest:
TONIGHT: FIRST WARN as scattered thunderstorms will be in the area, and a few may be strong with a Level 1/5 risk for hail and high winds. A few locations could also see heavy rain. The most likely time to see rain in the metro is through 11 pm, but storms will be possible through 3 am.
THURSDAY: FIRST WARN for heavy rain and storms, but timing has shifted. Much of the day will be dry, with the rain now delaying until late day and into the night. Storms are possible as early as 4 pm, but the latest information has them focused late at night. They could even hold off until as late as 3 or 4 AM. So, the day looks better for plans outside, with the morning in the upper 50s and the afternoon in the upper 70s. We will see partly to mostly cloudy skies and southeast winds at 5-10 mph.
FRIDAY: FIRST WARN for storms in the morning and early afternoon. Since the Thursday system is moving more slowly, it now pushes into Friday. This brings a decent chance for scattered storms through roughly lunch time Friday. We look dry by mid-day, with highs in the low 70s.
SATURDAY: A break in the rain, with only a slim 20% chance for showers. Most if not all of us will remain dry, though it will be cooler with mostly cloudy skies and highs in the mid 60s. The weather looks overall good for the Olathe Garmin Marathon.
SUNDAY: FIRST WARN for scattered showers at any time, but not all day. It is not a washout, but you should know rain is possible for plans outside. Highs will be in the mid-70s.
MONDAY: Warm low 80s, isolated thunderstorms possible. Kansas City has a 30%, and a few could be strong.
TUESDAY: Mid-70s, isolated thunderstorms possible. Kansas City has a 30% chance and a few could be strong.
WEDNESDAY: Sunny with highs near 70.
