REGIONAL WEATHER SUMMARY FOR EASTERN KANSAS
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WICHITA KS
500 AM CDT THU MAR 13 2014

UNDER MOONLIT SKIES TEMPERATURES HAD SETTLED INTO THE LOWER AND MID 30S
IN MOST AREAS BEFORE STABILIZING DUE TO WESTERLY 5 TO 10 MPH WINDS.

IT`LL BE NICE TODAY AS SUN-DRENCHED SKIES AND WEST WINDS BACKING TO THE
SOUTHWEST AND INCREASING TO 20 TO 30 MPH SEND TEMPERATURES TO BETWEEN 70
AND 75 DEGREES. THERE IS...HOWEVER...ONE PROBLEM: WITH THE INCREASING
SOUTHWEST WINDS TRANSPORTING DRIER AIR INTO THE NEIGHBORHOOD AN EXTREME
GRASSLAND FIRE DANGER WILL EXIST THIS AFTERNOON. AS SUCH...THE RED FLAGS
WILL BE UP AND FLAPPING THIS AFTERNOON. OUTDOOR BURNING IS DISCOURAGED.

FOR TONIGHT...AN UPPER DECK PERTURBATION MOVING SLOWLY EAST OVER ARIZONA
WILL SPREAD HIGH CLOUDINESS NORTHEAST FROM THE SOUTHERN PLAINS. WITH
SOUTHWEST 10 TO 20 MPH WINDS MOST AREAS WILL SEE LOWS IN THE LOWER 40S.
THE EXCEPTIONS WOULD BE WESTERN NEBRASKA AND NORTHWEST KANSAS WHERE A
LATE ARRIVING COLD FRONT WILL PUSH LOWS TO BETWEEN 30 AND 35 DEGREES.
