Highs today were reminiscent of summer. Most reached the mid to upper 80s. Wichita hit 89 degrees this afternoon, about 20 degrees above the seasonal average. We will go from summer today to a much more fall-like feel by next weekend.
Temperatures will then spike on Monday before a pattern shift. We are monitoring multiple moving parts. How this all comes together from Tuesday through Thursday of next week, and possibly Friday, will greatly tell the tale of who gets beneficial rain and who misses out. A sharp cold front is coming in from the north along with a deepening system from the west.
