Kansas City, MO – After a week of frigid temperatures, a warming trend is set to bring relief to Kansas City, with highs near 50 expected early next week. Residents should brace for chilly nights through Saturday, but warmer days are on the horizon as a ridge of high pressure moves into the region.
According to the National Weather Service, Friday will be sunny, with a high of 39 and light south winds gusting up to 23 mph. Clouds will increase Friday night, with lows dipping to 23.
