REGIONAL WEATHER SUMMARY
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WICHITA KS
339 PM CDT SAT JUN 27 2026
AFTER EARLY MORNING SHOWERS AND A FEW STORMS DIMINISHED ACROSS
SOUTHERN KANSAS, THE REST OF THE DAY WAS MILD IN THE EAST AND
WARMER IN THE WEST. MUCH OF THE STATE HAD AFTERNOON TEMPERATURES
IN THE LOWER 80S TO LOWER 90S WITH THE FAR WESTERN CORNERS
CLIMBING INTO THE UPPER 90S TO JUST ABOVE THE CENTURY MARK. WINDS
RANGED FROM THE SOUTHEAST TO SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST DIRECTION WITH
SPEEDS OF 10 TO 20 MPH AND GUSTS TO 35 MPH. CLEAR SKIES PREVAILED
IN THE WEST WHILE SCATTERED TO MOSTLY CLOUDY SKIES COULD BE FOUND
IN THE EAST.
A BREAK IN THE PRECIPITATION IS EXPECTED ACROSS MOST OF THE
CENTRAL PLAINS THIS EVENING INTO TONIGHT. THERE IS A CHANCE IN
WESTERN AND NORTHERN NEBRASKA FOR SHOWERS AND STORMS THOUGH.
OVERNIGHT TEMPERATURES ARE FORECAST TO FALL TO THE UPPER 50S IN
WESTERN NEBRASKA TO THE UPPER 70S IN EASTERN KANSAS AND OKLAHOMA.
GENERALLY WINDS SHOULD BE OUT OF THE SOUTH AT 10 TO 20 MPH WITH
WESTERN NEBRASKA BEING THE ONLY SPOT THAT DROPS TO LIGHT AND
VARIABLE INSTEAD. THERE SHOULD BE MINIMAL CLOUD COVER OUTSIDE OF
NEBRASKA OVERNIGHT.
THE HEAT RETURNS ON SUNDAY FOR MANY LOCATIONS WITH AFTERNOON
TEMPERATURES FROM AROUND 90 TO JUST ABOVE 100 WITH WESTERN KANSAS
INTO THE PANHANDLES BEING THE HOT SPOT. HEAT INDICES WILL BE
HIGHER FURTHER EAST THOUGH WITH VALUES AROUND 105 GIVEN AN
ABUNDANCE OF MOISTURE FROM THE RECENT RAINFALL. BREEZY SOUTHERLY
WINDS ARE ANTICIPATED AT LEAST WITH SPEEDS 15 TO 25 MPH WITH GUSTS
OF 35 MPH OTHER THAN CENTRAL NEBRASKA WHERE SPEEDS WILL BE
LIGHTER. PLENTY OF SUNSHINE SHOULD OCCUR WITH MINIMAL CLOUD COVER.
