The Burning Question: Will Kansas City Be Buried in a Snowpocalypse This Week?
Let's face it, folks, in July, the only thing falling from the sky in Kansas City should be barbeque sauce and the hopes of the opposing baseball team. But with weather patterns crazier than a raccoon wearing a tutu, you might be wondering: is a surprise blizzard brewing?
Fear not, my fellow citizens! Here's the scoop on the Kansas City snow situation, delivered with more sunshine than a sunflower field.
How Much Will It Snow In Kansas City |
The Official Forecast: NOPE! Zip. Zilch. Nada.
According to those lovely folks at the National Weather Service, Kansas City can expect a glorious week of sunshine and (hopefully) slightly less humid air. In other words, dust off your flip-flops and sunscreen, because the only white stuff you'll be seeing is the winning streak of the Royals... maybe.
Tip: Read once for flow, once for detail.
But Wait! What About Those "Winter is Coming" Memes My Aunt Shared on Facebook?
Ah yes, social media. Where every cat video is a sign of the apocalypse and a slightly colder-than-usual breeze is a harbinger of a new ice age. Relax! Unless your aunt has a secret weather machine in her basement (in which case, can I get an invite to the next barbeque?), those winter wonderland posts can be safely ignored.
Here's a tip: If you see a weather prediction that sounds suspiciously dramatic, double-check the source. A reputable news site or government agency is a much better bet than Uncle Joe's latest rant on his conspiracy theory forum.
QuickTip: Look for patterns as you read.
So, Can I Finally Retire My Snow Shovel? (Maybe)
Look, we all know Kansas weather can be a bit unpredictable. While a blizzard in July is highly unlikely, it's always good to be prepared. But for now, feel free to store your winter gear in the back of the closet next to your disco ball and leg warmers.
However, if you find a strange urge to build a snowman in the middle of summer, well, who am I to judge? Just make sure it's wearing a tiny barbeque hat.
QuickTip: Look for lists — they simplify complex points.
