It will be ‘very, very cold’ in Kansas City, and there’s a chance of snow on Sunday
Bundle up Kansas City, because temperatures won’t get very warm Tuesday, according to FOX4 meteorologist Karli Ritter.
“It is going to be very, very cold outside,” said Ritter, who provides weather updates to The Star. “We are expecting temperatures to stay around the freezing mark during the afternoon.”
There will be sunshine with a few clouds mixing in, she said. The cold won’t stick around for very long, though.
“The overall trends are looking less wintry as we head into the extended forecast, but today is going to be a very cold day,” she said. “Later this week we will be in the 40s and even 50s for a couple of days.”
