WICHITA, Kan. (KWCH) – Last night’s storms are long gone, but they took the warmer temperatures with them. After reaching the lower to middle 80s on Tuesday, today will be 25 to 30 degrees colder with highs in the lower to middle 50s. Adding insult to injury, north winds between 20 and 30 mph with occasional gusts to 40 mph will make it feel even colder.
The remainder of the work week looks quiet with a warming trend. Strong southerly winds will send temperatures into the middle to upper 60s on Thursday. Friday will be about the same – minus the wind – before we climb into the middle to upper 70s on Saturday.
