According to the National Weather Service of Topeka, dry conditions across the area will cause very high fire danger conditions across northeast Kansas this afternoon. Outdoor burning is strongly discouraged! It will be a beautifully warm weekend with mostly sunny skies and highs reaching the 70 degree mark today. There is a slight chance for an isolated storm to develop in the late afternoon, mainly southeast of Interstate 35. Severe storms are not expected.
