Storm Team 12: Warm Sunday ahead

May 21, 2011|By Meteorologist Ross Janssen | Storm Team 12

Scattered storms over northern Kansas will be ending late in the evening with skies turning mostly clear around much of the state.

Sunday looks like a very warm day for Kansas with temperatures well above average for late May. Southwest Kansas will easily top 90 by the end of the day, with most of the state seeing highs in the upper 80s. A weak cold front will be sliding through the area during the afternoon, which will turn winds to the west or northwest.

The front will stall out from central Oklahoma, through southeast Kansas, and into Missouri, which will help ignite showers and storms, mainly southeast of the Kansas Turnpike Sunday night.

The front will wobble around over southern Kansas on Monday, which will help develop showers and storms over the area into Monday afternoon. Strong to severe storms will be possible early in the week.
