Chilly temperatures end the workweek, with highs this afternoon only reaching into the 50s. Some spots in northcentral Kansas struggled to even break out of the 40s.
Morning lows will hover around the freezing mark with many spots dipping below 32 degrees. Make sure to cover any sensitive plants and stake the hose off the spigot tonight.
Saturday will start off dry, but rain chances will increase through the evening and overnight.
Scattered showers will first start in southwest Kansas during the afternoon and become widespread as we head through the evening. Rainfall totals will be minimal, with most of the state seeing less than a quarter of an inch of moisture.
Rain will continue through the first half of Sunday with scattered showers keeping temperatures cool. Highs will sit in the 40s for much of the state.
We dry out for the start of the workweek with temperatures gradually recovering. Highs reach back into the 60s by the weekend, just in time for our next round of rainfall.
