Tracking a dry Thursday evening, weekend t-showers

Aside from a few passing clouds, mostly clear skies will continue across Northwest Missouri and Northeast Kansas Thursday evening before overcast skies and rain chances return late Friday and settle in for the weekend. Cool and dry conditions will linger Thursday night, with lows falling into the upper 40s after midnight and northerly breezes at 5 to 10 mph. Friday will bring an increase in cloud cover through the day, with a 30% chance of spotty showers after 2 PM, and a 40% chance of showers and t-storms overnight. High temperatures Friday will reach the mid to upper 60s, before cooling into the 50s Friday night. Cloudy skies and a 30% chance of spotty showers Saturday will evolve into more widespread rain and Saturday night, Sunday, and into parts of Memorial day. High temperatures are forecast to remain below average through memorial day weekend with upper 60s on Saturday and mid to low 60s Sunday and Monday. Sunshine and 70s eventually make a come-back by the middle of next week, as a warmer and drier pattern returns to the region.
