Message of the day: Summer is here. Temperatures in the low to mid
90s with heat indices between 100-105 degrees are expected today.
This has lead to the first heat advisory of the year for our western
counties from 1 PM until 9 PM. Similar conditions will exist
Saturday as well for the KC Metro and areas north, resulting in
another heat advisory in effect for the afternoon and evening hours.
Upper level high pressure remains the dominating feature across much
of the CONUS (including our region) this morning, with an upper
level low pressure along the Pacific Northwest. At the surface, high
pressure can be found over the southeast U.S. with low pressure over
the Rockies, leaving our region sandwich in between, advecting
abundant warm air and moisture into the area. High temperatures are
expected to rise into the low to mid 90s, with dew points in the low
to mid 70s. This will make for an uncomfortable day with heat
indices between 100-105 degrees. As a result, a heat advisory is in
effect for this afternoon and evening for those from Mercer county,
MO down to Henry county, MO and areas west. Not much of a pattern
change is expected for Saturday, except for the surface high moving
slightly further west into our area, cutting off some of the warm
air and moisture advection. Models are also hinting at storms moving
into our area early Saturday morning, as a shortwave trough rounds
the ridge. If storms can hold together, then they will likely
move to the south, mainly over our eastern counties. Right now,
any storm that makes it this far south should diminish by the late
morning hours. Some cloud cover could stick around, potentially
throwing a wrench in the temperature forecast, but for now, it
does like most of the cloud cover should clear out allowing for
temperatures to rise into the low 90s. Additionally, dew points in
the low 70s are expected, leading to heat indices again between
100-105, mainly in our far western counties. Therefore, another
heat advisory is in effect for Saturday afternoon and evening.
Remember, if participating in outdoor activities to drink plenty
of water and take frequent breaks in an air conditioned or shaded
location.
On Sunday, high temperatures and dew points should be a few degrees
cooler as the surface high pressure continues to push west, further
into the area. This should keep heat indices below 100. The upper
level pattern will begin to change early next week with the upper
level high flattening out and more zonal flow taking its place.
Multiple shortwave troughs are then expected to move through the
Midwest, creating multiple chances for storms for the later half
of the week.
