Weather Update: Few Showers Out There

Good morning! Scattered showers and a few storms will track across the region this morning, and some areas could see a quarter or even half inch of rain. Heavier rain southwest of Topeka will reach the KC metro around 8 am (something to keep in mind for you rush hour commuters).

We'll warm up quite a bit for Wednesday (upper 80s) followed by even better chances for widespread rain Thursday and Thursday night. More on that later!
