Storm Chances to Decrease by the End of the Weekend

For today into early tomorrow, shower and thunderstorm chances will persist for much of eastern Kansas into northern and central Missouri. As a front tracks across the region this weekend, look for drier conditions to settle in through at least the start of next week. Temperatures will run near or slightly above normal into next week with warm, humid conditions expected on Monday. While widespread severe weather is not anticipated for today, some storms could become strong, containing gusty winds and moderate to locally heavy rainfall.
