Cooler air moving into the Kansas City area, chance for rain overnight
A cold front is approaching the Kansas City area, and the chance for rain will be increasing overnight, according to FOX4 meteorologist Karli Ritter.
“This is a strong cold front. It’s going to get the 90s out of here, and it’s going to usher in much cooler air, much drier air,” Ritter said in a weather update to The Star.
After midnight Wednesday, there is a chance for rain and possibly thunderstorms.
A wind advisory will also be in effect beginning 1 a.m. Wednesday.
Wednesday’s forecast calls highs in the mid 70s. The day will start out cloudy but the clouds will start to clear out after noon.
“We’ll make a quick bounce back up into the 80s for the rest of the week, but the humidity should stay in check through at least Friday,” Ritter said.
