Looking south from Overland Park, KS, Stephen Brucher just shot this incredible video. This is an intense, slow moving thunderstorm that will dump 2” of rain in one hour if you are near its center. Share your pictures. Stay indoors as lightning can be deadly.

Gooooooooood morning. While Sunny The Weather Dog enjoys her cooling shower yesterday, Kansas City is in the midst of a major heat wave. The hottest days are likely going to be Saturday and Sunday with over 100 degrees likely this weekend. The Global Predictor that uses the Patent-Pending LRC has been showing a big drop in temperatures in time for the Monday Night Football game at Arrowhead on September 14th. Leave plenty of water for the dogs and try to get the walks in early in the day or later in the evening. Last night's episode of Big Brother was nerve wracking. I can't believe Devins volunteered to go on the block. I also can't believe Drew doesn't know what he is doing, but he is winning competitions. Yes, I am a huge Big Brother fan. Who is watching?

Goooooooooood morning. It's a major heat wave. Some will tell. you fall started September 1, but the true beginning to fall is when the sun sets at the North Pole on September 23 each year on the Autumnal Equinox. And, the results speak for themselves. Kansas City is in the middle of a major heat wave. Here is what I wrote in today's Weather 20/20 Intelligence Report: https://weather2020.substack.com/p/what-is-going-on-with-this-weather?r=183akg&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=true

Gooooooooood morning! That big H over the southwestern United States is another "Heat Wave Creating Machine", what we call an anticyclone. An anticyclone is the exact opposite of a cyclone, or storm system. The flow around these systems is clockwise and the ai sinks underneath them. Los Angeles and much of Southern California is under an Extreme Heat Warning. Is it foggy in KC? A Dense Fog Advisory is in effect. It will burn off and get up into the middle 80s. So, maybe 86° in KC today and 104° where I grew up in the San Fernando Valley, and it's 58° in Golden where I live now, but it will get up to 85° today here.

Gooooooooood Morning. Storm Chaser Jordan Hall took this video on the Big Island of Hawaii yesterday. 10-20 inches of rain fell. Tropical Storm Lala is now south of the islands and bringing heavy rain to the other islands! In KC the wind has shifted to the north and this will provide a bit cooler conditions with lower humidity.

The Big Island of Hawaii took the brunt of Hurricane LaLa's rainfal...
