Kansas Braces for Intensifying Severe Weather Threat

The threat for severe weather is increasing across Kansas, with a potential for severe thunderstorm watches and warnings later today into the overnight hours. Thunderstorms moving southeast from Nebraska will produce an outflow boundary along the I-70 corridor, leading to the development of late-day storms. These storms may produce large hail and damaging winds, with a relatively low tornado threat. High temperatures will reach the low to mid 90s today, with increasing heat and humidity throughout the week. Storms are expected to bring some relief by Friday and into the weekend.
