Kansas City is starting Monday with a little fog and mist before the sun takes over. Early temperatures are hovering near 52 degrees, but the city should warm quickly under clear skies. The afternoon high is expected to reach 76 degrees with only a light east-southeast breeze.
Foggy Start, Sunny Finish
The National Weather Service expects dry conditions Monday, followed by a clear night with a low around 54 degrees. Winds should remain light, generally around 3 mph, making for a calm start to the week. No rain is expected during the day or overnight.
Low 80s Take Over By Tuesday
The warm-up arrives quickly, with Tuesday forecast to reach 82 degrees under sunny skies. Wednesday should be nearly as warm at 81, followed by highs near 79 Thursday and 80 Friday. Saturday and Sunday could again reach about 82 degrees, keeping outdoor plans looking unusually comfortable for early October.
Rain Chances Stay Minimal
Rain is mostly staying off the Kansas City forecast through the weekend. The chance remains at zero through Wednesday, rises only to 3% Thursday and 9% Friday, then drops back to just 1% to 2% over the weekend. In other words, the umbrella can probably keep enjoying its extended vacation.
The latest outlook is a noticeable warm-up from Sunday’s earlier forecast, which had Monday closer to 72 degrees and Tuesday near 77, as detailed in Sunday’s Kansas City forecast. With no watches, warnings or advisories listed, the main weather decision this week may be whether to bring a jacket in the morning and sunscreen by lunch.
