Friday, storms are expected to develop between 3 p.m. and 8 p.m. across the Kansas City metro and areas to the east. While the overall severe weather risk is considered low, a few of the scattered storms could become severe, making it important to monitor Friday’s forecast through the afternoon and evening.
The pattern is expected to shift afterward, with hotter and drier conditions settling in for next week. Saturday is also expected to be mostly dry for the FIFA World Cup quarterfinal at Arrowhead Stadium, with highs in the upper 80s and temperatures easing into the upper 70s after the match.
