    Hope you are having a great Wednesday, weather blog readers. It has been warm and windy as temperatures warmed into the 70s. We will stay mild overnight, with temperatures tomorrow morning only reaching about 60. That will be due to some rain-cooled air as storms move through. The timeframe is generally from 3-8 a.m., likely impacting the morning commute to some degree. These storms may be a bit loud with thunder and lightning, hail, and gusty winds.

    KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Located in the rolling hills of eastern Kansas - just west of Kansas City - is Tonganoxie. It's a small city but some say it has a big impact on the city's weather - The Tonganoxie Split. Is the Tonganoxie Split a real weather phenomenon? KSHB 41's Wes Peery finds out "A former weatherman, I think on one of the channels, coined that and it had something to do with the weather patterns, how they approach here and then veer off in another direction," Mike Emery told me.

It was a bright orange "flower" full moon on Monday night. The May full moon is called the Flower Moon because it coincides with the time of year when flowers are blooming abundantly across much of the Northern Hemisphere. [John McDonough] https://t.co/SqSYrcn6js
