Stormy pattern ahead with multiple rounds of severe weather possible

What We’re Tracking

• Rounds of storms by late Sunday/Monday
• Rain likely through mid week.
• Mid week cool down

Unfortunately, our long dry stretch comes to an end this evening as an active weather pattern moves in. We're tracking several rounds of storms from Sunday through Tuesday, with the greatest severe weather potential expected Sunday evening and Monday afternoon/evening across Northeast Kansas.

Tonight:
The main threats will be large hail, heavy rain, and a few tornadoes. Storms are expected to develop after 4 PM, with the most likely arrival time between 6–7 PM. The Storm Prediction Center has shifted the enhanced risk area closer to central Kansas and added a moderate risk for parts of south-central Kansas. Storms should gradually clear out between midnight and 2 AM.

Monday:
Another round of potentially severe storms is likely. All of Northeast Kansas is under an enhanced risk for Monday. The primary threats once again include large hail, damaging winds, and a few tornadoes. Timing looks to start a bit earlier than Sunday, with isolated showers possible early in the day and stronger storms developing between 4–8 PM. Storms should taper off after midnight.

Beyond the strong to severe storms expected Sunday into Monday, temperatures will cool down significantly by Tuesday, with highs only reaching the low-70s. A few showers and storms may linger through Wednesday, but drier conditions are expected by the end of the work week.

Highs midweek will drop into the 60s with overnight lows getting a bit chilly as we dip down into some 40s. We do look to warm back up to more seasonable temperatures by next weekend.
