An upper level trough is centered off the West Coast. An upper level disturbance/shortwave is over portions of north central Kansas and south central Nebraska. Increased lift from this shortwave has resulted in showers across mainly north central Kansas. These showers are decreasing in coverage and are expected to continue to decrease. Temperatures this afternoon across the area are expected to warm up into the mid 60s to lower 70s with southeast winds gusting up to around 20 to 25 MPH. Winds will weaken this evening and tonight with temperatures cooling into the 40s tonight into Tuesday morning.
An upper level shortwave trough will pass over/near the area on Tuesday. Rain chances (15% to around 25%) will increase Tuesday afternoon into Wednesday morning as a result of increased upper lift from the shortwave. Temperatures on Tuesday are expected to warm up into the mid 60s to low 70s. Overnight low temperatures Tuesday night will be in the 40s and 50s. The warm up continues into Wednesday with high temperatures in the 70s. Low temperatures Wednesday night/Thursday morning will be in the 50s areawide. Temperatures on Thursday will be similar or slightly warmer than those on Wednesday as an upper ridge becomes more centered over the area and winds increase out of the south. Winds will be even stronger out of the south on Friday (gusts possibly reaching 35 to 40 MPH in the afternoon) in advance of an approaching upper trough. High temperatures Friday are expected to be similar to those on Thursday. Low temperatures Friday night will be in the 50s and 60s.
The upper trough will begin to pass over the region on Saturday with a cold front moving into the area. This front will result in high temperatures mainly in the 60s across the area on Sunday. This front will also result in an increase in rain chances (up to 50% chance) beginning on Saturday.
