Scattered thunderstorm chances return each night for the next few days. Tonight, the best potential for storms will fall between the 11PM to 8AM timeframe. A few of these storms may have the potential to become strong to marginally severe. The primary severe risk would be for gusty winds up to near 60MPH. Otherwise, highs this week will continue to range the upper 80s and 90s across much of the area with highs up to the low triple digits across a few north central Kansas locations.
