Parts of KAKEland started off the weekend with thunderstorms and showers this morning, but those will continue to clear out as we inch towards noon, leaving us with a pretty sunny, quiet and comfortable remainder of the day. Highs will be below average in the 80s across western KS, while central KS warms into the low to mid-90s. Despite being a few degrees cooler in south central KS, abundant moisture will make it feel like 100° to 110° this afternoon and evening. 

A handful of storms and showers are possible this afternoon, but the chance is pretty low, and I think most will stay dry during the day. Better chances for storms arrive late this evening in Oklahoma and eventually move onto the Kansas side after sunset. 

Hit-or-miss storms will continue across south central and southeast KS after midnight. 

This initial wave of storms that moves out of Oklahoma has the potential to be on the strong to severe side. Not everyone will see storms, but those that do could see quarter sized hail or greater, wind gusts at or above 60 mph and localized flooding. 

Storms migrate out of Colorado as we inch past midnight and storms develop again in central KS. The threat for severe weather will be lower as we near sunrise Sunday, but a few strong storms can't be ruled out. 

Widespread scattered showers and storms continue into sunrise Sunday and through the first half of the day. This will provide another chance for much needed moisture in the Wichita area and other places that missed out on Friday night's rain. 

Like the past couple of days, this is expected to be a relatively lower end severe weather day later today (if storms turn severe at all). Thus the chances of encountering severe weather is quite low. Stay updated as the day unfolds, and make sure you have a way of receiving alerts during the overnight while you're sleeping.
