Kansas City Braces for Showers and Potential Strong Storms with Gusty Winds and Hail

Takeaways:

• Showers and thunderstorms are expected to return to the Kansas City area on Wednesday, with the possibility of a few strong storms including small hail and gusty winds up to 50 mph.

• Patchy fog on Wednesday morning is limiting visibility but is expected to burn off by 9 a.m., with cloudy skies and temperatures in the mid-70s in the afternoon.

• There is potential for concentrated heavy rainfall, which could lead to flash or river flooding, especially if storms repeatedly rain over a single location.

• Additional showers and thunderstorms are forecast for Thursday and Friday, with a risk of gusty winds and small hail, and minor flooding due to saturated ground from recent storms.

• The weekend weather is expected to be nice with temperatures in the mid-80s and mostly sunny skies, but more showers and thunderstorms could return Sunday night into the next week.
