Lingering clouds helped keep temperatures lower across far northern through central Kansas this afternoon, while western Kansas stayed hotter, according to KSN-TV. As the afternoon progresses, the broader takeaway for the weekend is a shift toward hotter, drier weather.
High pressure strengthening overhead is expected to bring dry skies through the weekend. With heat and high humidity combining, the “sizzle” effect is forecast to intensify, and heat danger is anticipated to increase as the weekend goes on.
