    KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Good Sunday bloggers, Well, this is my last blog for KSHB 41 as today is my last day after being hired on August 23, 1999, 27 years ago.

The smoke is aloft and should not pose a hazard to surface air quality. Here is a smoke forecast map for 5:30 p.m. Sunday. You can see we are in light-to-moderate smoke. There ar

    We are about to have our first heat wave since August 15–18, 2025, which means three straight days at 95° or higher. Sunday was the hottest day (99°) since Aug. 26, 2024, 699 days.

Right now, on the edge of the high heat, a severe weather outbreak is ongoing from Green Bay, Wisconsin, to Chicago. There ha
