Tracking record temps and rain to start the work week
Overnight Saturday, we didn't get much relief from the heat. We set a new record for the highest low temperature, with a low of 80°F, surpassing the previous record of 78°F set in 2013. Tonight, we could break another record. The record for the highest overnight low was 77°F, set in 2016. Our forecasted low tonight is 78°F, so we may experience another record-breaking warm night. The National Weather Service has issued a heat advisory for most of Missouri and Kansas, in effect until 7 p.m. Monday. As we start the workweek, no relief from the heat is expected just yet. Temperatures will quickly climb into the upper 90s, with heat indices in the 100s, making for another hot day. After lunch on Monday, a low-pressure system in Kansas will approach from the west, triggering a cold front and bringing a chance for thunderstorms Monday night into early Tuesday morning. These storms are expected to be scattered, with the greatest impact to the north and west of our area. For Monday night into Tuesday, we are in a Level 1 risk (out of 5), while counties to the north, such as Holt and Nodaway, are under a Level 2 risk. The primary threats from this system will be damaging winds and small hail. While the risk is low for most of our viewing area, it's important to stay updated with the latest forecast and have the Storm Tracker app downloaded. Temperatures will gradually cool throughout the week, and by Friday, we expect highs in the upper 80s, a welcome break from the upper 90s. Rain chances will continue through the week, with Thursday expected to bring the next significant weather system.

Cold front brings relief from record heat and renews severe storm threat in Colorado
A cold front will move through overnight Sunday into early Monday, bringing much-needed relief from the heat across Denver and much of Colorado. This front will lead to two big changes for the week ahead: cooler temperatures and the return of storm chances. Highs will be stuck in the 70s and 80s from Monday through Thursday—a refreshing change after the recent stretch of record heat. Scattered thunderstorms will also return to the forecast. Strong to severe storms will be possible on both Monday and Tuesday. Monday will bring garden variety showers for most of the area, with a slight chance for one or two storms to produce hail and gusty winds near Denver. CBS Tuesday will bring a greater threat of severe weather. Damaging winds and large hail will be the main concern along the I-25 corridor and across the Eastern Plains. CBS Storms are expected to develop between 1 and 2 p.m., gaining strength as they move east through the evening hours.

Aurora FC changes kickoff time to keep players and fans safe in extreme heat
Kick off for Sunday's Aurora FC game got pushed back to 7:30 p.m. because of the extreme heat warning in place. It's a step to keep players, staff and fans safe. "We just have to try and be as proactive as possible," said Saara Hassoun, chief of staff for Aurora FC. "It gets so hot on that turf, even hotter than were all feeling out here in this environment. When you step on that turf, it's a good 10-15 degrees hotter because of the way the sun absorbs and reflects." Aurora FC has battled high temps before. In 2022, their inaugural season, they put large fans on the sidelines and tents to keep people in the shade when they're not on the field. Tents were on the sidelines again on Sunday, along with mandatory hydration breaks in each half. They also made exceptions for fans to bring their own sealed, store-bought water. "You can always bring an empty water bottle because we do have water fountains available for free throughout the stadium," said Hassoun. Others on Sunday did not slow down in the heat. Painter Park, off Lyndale Avenue in South Minneapolis, was busy with people getting exercise. Friends Quinn O'Keefe and Elliot Hicks play basketball several times a week and the temperature didn't stop them. "There was a big debate on whether or not to play basketball, but we decided that we're about it and ball is life, so we had to come out here, but we made sure to bring lots of water," said Hicks. "Exactly," said O'Keefe. "It's hot, but our hoop dreams our hotter." Skateboarders still got out at the park too, but extra water breaks were necessary. "I think because it's so hot today there's not too many people, which is chill, but the wind is keeping somewhat manageable," said Sean Pearson, a skateboarder.
