Kansas City Prepares for Stormy Weekend Ahead: Warm Friday, Wet Saturday, and Cool Sunday
Published 6 months, 1 week ago
Description
Good morning, this is Kansas City Local Pulse for Friday, October 17th, 2025.
We're starting this Friday with some important weather news that's going to affect your plans today and into the weekend. Right now we're looking at another unseasonably warm afternoon with temperatures climbing into the mid 80s, but don't let that fool you because big changes are on the way. We've got thunderstorms moving in later tonight, and there's a 72 percent chance of precipitation throughout the day. The storm system arrives with a cold front that could bring some strong to severe thunderstorms, so if you've got Friday night plans, most of your day will be dry but keep an eye on the sky as evening approaches.
For those running in the Kansas City Marathon tomorrow morning, the good news is most of the heavy rain should wrap up by race time, but Saturday morning will start with some lingering showers. Saturday itself brings another round of possible storms in the evening, though that chance has decreased over the past day. If you're looking for the best day to get outside this weekend, Sunday is your answer. Just plan for a chilly start with temperatures in the mid 40s, giving us our first real taste of fall, with afternoon highs only reaching the 60s.
Over at the Chiefs facilities, coaching staff including Dave Toub, Steve Spagnuolo, and Matt Nagy spoke with media yesterday. There's been ongoing discussion about the Josh Simmons situation, though specific details from those conversations are still developing.
As we head into the weekend, we're seeing that blast of fall air finally arrive after days of unseasonably warm weather. This temperature drop is going to be significant, so if you've been putting off pulling out those sweaters and jackets, now's the time. The cold front bringing these storms will help cool us back down to where we should be for mid October.
Looking ahead to next week, we'll see clearing skies with temperatures stabilizing. Monday and Tuesday look clear with highs in the upper 60s to mid 70s, perfect fall weather for getting back into our regular routines after this stormy weekend.
For today, our advice is to enjoy the warmth while it lasts, wrap up any outdoor activities before evening, and make sure you've got your rain gear ready for tonight. If you're headed out after work, that umbrella is going to be your best friend.
