Looks like we're in for some warmer weather for a while.

Today is expected to be warm and breezy across central, south central, and southeast Kansas. High temperatures are forecast to reach the mid-90s in some places, according to the National Weather Service (NWS) in Wichita.

Afternoon highs during the first half of June typically reach in the low to mid 80s, but we will be well above that for the rest of the week this week, NWS noted. Afternoon highs in the 90s will be common, and some locations may approach 100 by Thursday.

Looking ahead to next week, above normal temperatures will continue to be favored across much of the central and eastern United States, NWS reported.
