FIRST WARN FORECAST: Few showers this evening, high heat through Thursday
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (KCTV) - After a pleasant weekend, our attention turns to the extreme heat for the week ahead. Heat alerts are in place Monday through Thursday with intense temperatures and high humidity. Our feels-like temperatures each afternoon should be in the 105-115 range. Please avoid outdoor activities in the heart of the afternoon and early evening as heat-related illness will very much be a concern. Real air temperatures should be in the mid to upper 90s. Some spots, especially on the Kansas side, could be near the 100-degree mark. There are a few small rain and thunderstorm chances over the next few days. Monday has a 30% confidence to see a shower or stray rumble, but a good chunk of the day will be dry. A weak cold front works in later in the day Wednesday, and this could give us another small rain and storm chance. Eventually, lower 90s take back over late this next week and into the upcoming weekend.
