A cold front will push slowly into western Kansas this afternoon and evening before stalling out across southwest into central Kansas overnight. Light to moderate rain will be possible across south central Kansas late tonight as a strong upper level system begins digging into the desert southwest.
The best chance for precipitation will be southeast of a Larned to Meade line where plenty of low level moisture will be nosing northward into Kansas. No hazardous weather is expected through early Tuesday morning.
Look for low temperatures to fall into the 30s in the vicinity and just north of the frontal boundary with slightly warmer temperatures likely across our southeast.
