Forecast: Deceitful Spring ends, third Winter begins Mid-Missouri is experiencing a dramatic shift in weather patterns, with a sudden transition from deceptive spring conditions to the onset of a third winter. The region is bracing for a mix of severe weather, including afternoon thunderstorms, plummeting temperatures, and evening snow showers on Sunday.

Kansas City forecast: Fog, morning storms then severe weather threat Friday Kansas City is facing a period of intense weather activity starting late tonight and continuing into Friday. Overnight, fog will form alongside scattered thunderstorms that could develop before dawn, potentially disrupting the early Friday morning commute. Visibility may decrease at times, and a few storms could bring brief downpours or lightning as the first wave of thunderstorms moves through the region.
