Enjoy the Warmth of Winter…Huh?

Strange way to think about dressing for Winter but for the next two or three days we'll need less clothes to keep us warm.

Unseasonably warm temperatures will continue today and Wednesday with highs in the lower to middle 50's across the KC area. Winds will be on the increase both days with westerly winds of 10-20 mph today and southeasterly at 20-30 mph. The gusty winds on Wednesday could lead to elevated fire danger and burning should be delayed until winds diminish.
