Our weather continues to be very quiet this week as the World Series takes front and center stage tonight. The weather has been really nice for players and fans with the winds light and the temperatures comfortably cool. High pressure is slow to move, so we will get another nice day for Wednesday and then we start to deal with changes in the weather for the rest of the week.
Another cold front will slip through the area Thursday morning, and in the afternoon, we will have gusty winds (probably around 30 mph) from the north. I don't think you'll notice much of a change in temperatures for Thursday, but you definitely will on Halloween. It looks like highs will struggle to get out of the 50-55 degree range and as the kids get ready to go Trick-or-Treating, temperatures will fall into the 40s. Good news though; the winds will calm down during the evening.

| Pattern starts changing and results in some snow for the upper Midwest |
It's definitely getting colder though. Look at the lake effect snow that will be setting up around the Great Lakes by Friday morning. Lake effect snow happens when the cold air moves across the relatively warm bodies of water. This is quite common through late fall and early winter, and it's not uncommon for some cities around the lakes to get several feet of snow.

| Temperatures Friday evening - MUCH cooler |
Kansas is going to be on the western fringe of that much cooler airmass at the end of the week. Several of you have said you are not ready for snow yet. And there isn't anything showing on the weather maps that would suggest snow is in the immediate future, but we know it won't be long before we start talking about winter weather.
Heads up... a killing frost/freeze is quite possible early Saturday morning. Details to come on Thursday.
In the meantime, go Royals!
