Warm and sunny today! Most of the state hit the 90-degree mark this afternoon, and temperatures will only go up from here as we move into the weekend. A few isolated showers and storms will be possible this evening as energy moves in from Colorado. This activity will be driven by the daytime heat and will quickly fall apart after sundown. A Marginal Risk for severe weather is in place for northwest Kansas tonight as one or two storms could reach the severe threshold.

Last night’s rainfall brought significant amounts of moisture to parts of the region. While southwest Kansas missed out on the moisture connection, southcentral Kansas cashed in on the rain. Flood Warnings stay in place for creeks and rivers across southcentral Kansas through the weekend. Rivers will likely crest over the next few days before levels lower by the start of next week. We have seen a few isolated showers in northcentral Kansas this evening.
