KANSAS CITY'S FORECAST
Tonight: Clear early then becoming partly cloudy with a chance for scattered showers and thunderstorms north and east of Kansas City.
Low: 70°
Wind: S-SE 5-10 mph
Friday: Mostly sunny, hot and humid with heat index values nearing 100° around Kansas City and up to 107° south of the Metro.
The window for severe thunderstorm opens around 6p.m. and closes around midnight for the entire viewing area. For the Metro we can narrow this to 7-10pm.
I wish the timing was better for Officer Oswald's procession and candlelight vigil.
A tornado or two is not out of the question, but damaging straight-line winds and hail pose a bigger threat.
High: 92° Heat Index: 100-107°
Wind: S-SW 10-15 mph
Saturday: Sprinkles to light rain is possible Saturday morning before the sky turns partly cloudy for the afternoon.
Low: 70°
