About this listen

Good morning. Kansas. I'm Michael Mosby. Step outside and you'll feel spring showing up early. We're flirting with records today. Sunshine's pouring down statewide. And temperatures are already climbing fast from this morning's 53 degrees. By this afternoon, we're talking 76 in the northeast, 78 in south-central areas. And western Kansas topping out at 81. That's within striking distance of records set back in 1986. The spring equinox is just 11 days away. And today feels like a sneak preview. Winds stay light out of the south, gusting to around 20 miles an hour this afternoon. Perfect weather for a lunchtime walk if you ask me. Tonight stays mild — lows drop to the low 50s under mostly clear skies. But here's where it gets interesting. Tuesday brings a storm system that'll flip the script. Highs climb into the low 80s during the day, but by afternoon, a warm front sets up across Kansas. That's when things get active. Thunderstorms develop late afternoon into evening, mainly along and east of Highway 283. Large hail up to two inches, damaging winds. And heavy rainfall are all possible. Some storms could train along the front, leading to flooding concerns Tuesday night. Wednesday? The cold front sweeps through. Temperatures crash — highs struggle to reach the mid 50s with gusty north winds. That's a 25 to 30 degrees drop from Tuesday. The rest of the week quiets down and warms back up. Thursday rebounds to the low 60s. Friday hits the upper 60s. And Saturday warms to the low 70s under mostly sunny skies. Enjoy the warmth today. Tomorrow's a different story. See you this afternoon.
