We made it through a hot weekend and now we will need to brace ourselves for a hot start to the new week. High temperatures will be in the 90s and 100s.
With the humidity factored in, heat indices will be as high as 102 to 110. Heat alerts will be in effect through Wednesday evening.
Even after Wednesday the heat will not let up much. The coolest temperatures will be in the low 90s.
Storm chances will be low while temperatures are high. Some rain in northern parts of the area to start the day will be gone later this morning.
Some showers and storms will fire up in Colorado later today. This activity will work its way in our direction and provide a chance for some rain and rumbles in Northwest Kansas and Southwest Nebraska during the evening and overnight.
The threat of severe weather is low but storms around the Kansas/Nebraska line to the northwest will need to be monitored closely.
Any storms will clear out by Tuesday morning. Most of tomorrow will be dry until we get into the evening. There will be another storm chance in extreme Northwest Kansas and Southwest Nebraska.
Severe weather is not much of a concern Tuesday evening. Our Southwest Nebraska Counties are on the tail end of a Marginal Risk.
We will continue this pattern during the middle of the week with a chance for evening showers and storms mainly to the north and west.
South Central Kansas will be included in a chance for storms Thursday and Friday but most of the area is still looking mainly dry most of the time.
