Hot and muggy with a heat advisory Sunday into Monday
What We’re Tracking
- Heat Advisory
- Mid-week rain chances
- Late-week cool down
A few storms could pop up this evening, mainly south of I-70 around sunset. While these storms are not expected to be severe, some could bring gusty winds. After multiple rounds of rain over the past two days, northeast Kansas is soaked, Topeka now sits 1.31 inches above the average rainfall for July.
Overnight, temperatures will dip into the mid-70s with a light breeze from the south.
Looking ahead, a Heat Advisory goes into effect Sunday at 1 PM and lasts through 8 PM Monday. The heat won't stop there, expect highs in the mid to upper 90s through midweek. When you factor in the humidity and plenty of sunshine, it will feel even hotter. Heat indices may reach up to 110° in a few areas. Dew points will remain in the upper 70s, keeping things feeling tropical and very muggy.
Thankfully, the heat does not last long. Towards the end of the work week as an unusually colder pattern will usher in the new month. We end out July with showers and storms returning past midweek into the weekend with high temperatures to start out August as low as the upper 70s to lower 80s!
