The system that brought some showers and thunderstorms to Kansas and Missouri Tuesday will continue to shift east today, taking what’s left of the rain with it this afternoon. But, another chance for rain will return late in the work week and again at the end of the weekend into the next work week. And, while rain chances for next week are hard to pin down, the general trend has provided us with a high degree of confidence that at least it will not be oppressively hot and humid. Here’s the 7-day forecast from the National Weather Service:
