Kansas City weather: Chance of spotty showers on Monday

THIS WARMTH THAT SEEMS LIKE. SO TOMORROW, ANOTHER WARM DAY. AND IN FACT, MOSTLY RAIN FREE CONDITIONS. FOR A WHILE NOW. WE DO HAVE A CHANCE OF RAIN TOMORROW NIGHT. WE'LL GET MORE ABOUT THAT IN JUST A SECOND. BUT THIS IS WHERE WE ARE FOR THE DROUGHT MONITOR, AND IT LOOKS AS THOUGH ALL OF EASTERN KANSAS AND WESTERN MISSOURI NOT ONLY DRY, BUT SOME AREAS OF MODERATE TO EVEN SEVERE. THIS IS YOUR SEVERE AREAS. THEY'RE SLOWLY, SLOWLY, BUT SURELY JUST TAKING OVER ALL OF US NOW. OUR CHANCES OF RAIN ARE THERE FOR LATER ON TOMORROW NIGHT INTO THE EARLY TUESDAY MORNING. HOURS. IT'S GOING TO BE THE WARMEST DAY COME TUESDAY, WITH THE DAYTIME HIGH IN THE 80S AND THEN THE REST OF THE WEEK BACK IN THE 70S. BUT KEEP IN MIND THE AVERAGE AVERAGE HIGH FOR KANSAS CITY ON THIS DATE TODAY IS 66. SO WE'RE WELL ABOVE THAT FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS. NOW ON A SUNDAY NIGHT, IT IS CLEAR AND COMFORTABLE. I MEAN, WE'RE AT 59 DEGREES DEW POINT, THE AIR STILL FAIRLY DRY. IT'S AT 39, RELATIVE HUMIDITY AT 47%, WIND SPEEDS ABOUT NINE MILES AN HOUR. LOOK AT THE NUMBERS COMPARED TO LIKE A, WELL, SOUTH DAKOTA 66, FARGO NORTH DAKOTA 60. MINNEAPOLIS AT 64. WICHITA ABOUT 61. A LITTLE FARTHER SOUTH, OKLAHOMA CITY AT 63. AND LITTLE ROCK ABOUT 60. HERE'S OUR TIMELINE AGAIN FOR TOMORROW. NOW, TOMORROW MORNING IN THE AFTERNOON, GET OUTDOOR PLANS. THAT'S JUST FINE, BECAUSE NO RAIN EXPECTED THEN. BUT THIS LINE BEGINS TO CREEP INTO OUR AREA BY 6:00 TOMORROW EVENING, AS WE GET TO 7:00, LOOK AT THE SPOTTY SHOWERS, WHICH MEANS NOT EVERYBODY IS GOING TO GET RAIN OUT OF THIS. THAT SECONDARY LINE BEGINS TO COME ACROSS EASTERN KANSAS AROUND 10:00, HEADING TOPEKA LAWRENCE. AND THEN YOU KIND OF GET THE IDEA, AND THAT'S HOW IT'S GOING TO BE UNTIL ABOUT 3:00 IN THE MORNING. THEN IT BOOTS OUT OF HERE AND LEAVES US WITH CLEAR AND QUIET CONDITIONS. SO LET'S START WITH TOMORROW MORNING ABOUT 52 DEGREES. THERE'S YOUR HIGH OF 79 DEGREES WITH THE RAIN. AFTER 5:00 IN THE AFTERNOON. THE HIGH TOMORROW SHOULD HIT AROUND 3:00 WITH THAT 79. YOUR WIND FLOW 10 TO 20 MILES AN HOUR, GUSTING AT TIMES UP TO 25. OKAY. NOW, HOW MUCH RAINFALL? ONE TENTH. 2/10 OF AN INCH AT MOST. YOU SEE THE LIGHT GREEN AREAS ALL ACROSS, MAYBE UP TO 3/10 OF AN INCH. AND THAT'S REALLY ABOUT IT. 82 FOR A HIGH ON TUESDAY AFTER A MORNING START, ABOUT 59. THOSE OF YOU LIKE FARTHER SOUTHWEST OTTAWA THAT'S GOING TO BE YOUR WARMEST DAY AT 85 LA CYGNE 87 CLINTON 84 CHILLICOTHE. YOU'LL BE ABOUT 81 COME TUESDAY, WEDNESDAY, THURSDAY. THE COOLER AIR TAKES CONTROL, 72 AND 71 AFTER MORNING STARTS AT 5542, THERE IS A SLAM. I REPEAT, A SLIM CHANCE OF RAIN ON FRIDAY WITH A HIGH OF 76 SATURDAY AND SUNDAY AS OF RIGHT NOW. LOOKING ALSO DRY 78 AND 70. AND THAT FOLLOWING WEEK WE'RE TALKING ABOUT STILL TEMPERATURES IN THE 70S. SO AS YOU LOOK AT NEXT WEEKEND, AS OF RIGHT NOW IT LOOKS DRY. REMAINING MILD, AND THEN THAT FOLLOWING MONDAY AND TUESDAY WE ARE GOING TO SEE THE WINDS PICK UP AGAIN. A VE
