Happy Easter, bloggers,The much-advertised strong storm system is moving across the region today. It is producing severe weather just east of our viewing area. As we discussed Saturday, an occluded front (purple front) has pushed the warm, juicy air just to the east. Now, this being said, we still have to watch Clinton to Sedalia as they are close to the big severe threat through 4-5 p.m. Flooding and flash flooding are becoming the bigger issues.

Good Saturday bloggers,Here is the latest on our Easter Sunday storm system. We expected and had a mostly dry Saturday as the rain stayed about 50-100 miles south. The rain and thunderstorms will be increasing from south to north tonight and the process has begun. The 1st band of rain will arrive in the KC area between 545 PM and 7 PM. The main time to see severe weather will be noon to 7 PM Sunday. The purple front on the map is an occluded front.

Good Friday (Literally) bloggers,We are tracking a strong cold front and storm system for the Easter weekend. The strong cold front moved through KC this morning. So, we are in the 50s for the rest of the day. We won't drop to the 20s like it is at Casper, WY. A few showers and small thunderstorms raced across the area behind the front from southwest to northeast as the front tracked northwest to southeast. These will be gone by 2 PM, leaving the rest of the afternoon mostly dry.

Good Sunday bloggers,Today was the warmest day, officially in KC, since October 30th when we reached 80° at KCI. Today we soared to 83°, possibly 84°. The high was 88° at Emporia, KS. This is certainly a taste of summer. But, spring showers and thunderstorms are about to enter the picture. The 2nd half of April is going to see several chances of rain and thunderstorms. Severe weather will be possible. Details are in the 6 minute video below.

The wind will gust to 35-40 mph today with highs in the 60s. Friday will be cool with areas of clouds, mostly on the Missouri side. Then, the weekend looks great! Low 70s Saturday, low 80s Sunday! @KSHB41 https://t.co/fsL19zs6Rj

We are having a terrific Thursday sunrise. If you are headed to the "K" today for the 1:10 PM start against the Twins, be prepared for wind gusts 30-40 mph. After the game you can prepare for the Spring severe weather season. "Surviving the Storm" airs at 6:30 PM on @kshb41 https://t.co/CoiOrm9KT1

The wind will decrease this afternoon as highs climb to the low 70s. Tonight & Thursday we will be on the western edge of scattered showers & a few T-Storms. So, any rain in KC will be brief. The wind returns Thursday as we see northwest winds at 15-25 mph. @KSHB41 https://t.co/4Q5BQ4ni09
