Bundle up: Bitter cold start to the work week in NW Kansas

Posted Jan 29, 2023 5:16 PM

A wind chill advisory is in effect for most of northwest Kansas through Monday morning.

The National Weather Service in Dodge City is predicting a bitterly cold start to the work week, with a high temperature of just 16 forecast for Monday.

There is a slight chance of snow flurries through the day Sunday and into early Monday morning — the only precipitation predicted in the long-range forecast. Wind chill values early Monday morning could be as low as 15 below zero.

The mercury will rise as the week progresses, with a high of 30 Tuesday, followed by highs in the upper-30s Wednesday and Thursday. By Friday, a high near 50 is expected.
