FIRST WARN FORECAST: Chance for rain dwindles as heat returns
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (KCTV) - Sunday turned out to be a spectacular day! Most of us were in the upper 70s and lower 80s in the afternoon. We do have a few isolated showers/thunderstorms that will be possible through early evening, but this activity is more miss than hit. Many of us will stay dry. If you are loving this cooler stretch, we do have one more day in the lower 80s before the temperatures climb later this week. Monday morning starts in the lower 60s, with lower 80s in the afternoon. There is another 20% chance for a pop-up shower or random rumble, but that is about it. No severe thunderstorm threat. The main weather story after Monday will be the gradual climb of temperatures back to late July standards. We are expecting mid-80s Tuesday and Wednesday with a return to the upper 80s by the end of this next week. Generally, no major heat is expected, but we could climb into the lower 90s for some next weekend. Moderate humidity could allow for it to feel slightly hotter than our actual air temperatures. There is no great chance of rain in the next week, so things could turn a little crispy through the end of July. Some of our computer models are hinting at a much hotter start to August.

Chiefs give biggest headache an intriguing lifeline

Dismal viewership numbers and brutal 2023 season create lethal Cardinals concoction
There's a scene in an episode of "The Simpsons" called "Itchy & Scratchy & Marge" where, because of the declining quality of their beloved "Itchy & Scratchy" cartoon, the kids of Springfield engage in other activities and enjoy spending time outdoors with their peers. With viewership of the St. Louis Cardinals at an all-time low because of the mess that is the state of Bally Sports and televised baseball at large, the Cardinals could be nearing a point of no return when it comes to attracting eyes.
