Kansas City, Missouri – Sunday afternoon could turn stormy across Kansas City as summer weather brings a renewed threat of heavy rain and thunder by 2 p.m. Drivers along I-70 and surrounding roads should prepare for sudden downpours and reduced visibility.
According to the National Weather Service, thunderstorms may develop after 1 p.m. Sunday, with increased chances between 2 and 4 p.m. While rainfall totals are expected to stay under half an inch, localized heavier bursts could create minor flooding in low-lying areas and poor drainage zones.
Conditions will clear overnight into Monday, but drivers and weekend event organizers should remain cautious until Sunday evening. If thunder roars, move indoors—lightning remains a risk during peak afternoon hours. Winds will remain light, offering little help in clearing storm systems quickly.
By Monday, sunny skies return with a high near 81°F. The dry pattern continues through midweek with pleasant conditions Tuesday and Wednesday. Daytime highs will gradually rise from the low 80s to the mid-80s by Wednesday, with clear skies dominating the forecast.
