Convection on August 19th sufficiently saturated the low level atmosphere, and gusty southerly winds that prevailed across northeast Kansas during the morning and afternoon hours of the 20th helped to reinforce the hot and humid air mass in place over the region, south of a surface stationary boundary over Nebraska.  Temperatures over the western half of the county warning area quickly warmed under sunny skies early in the day.  Sites further east followed suit after debris clouds from the overnight convection dissipated. Heat indicies from 105 to 109 degrees were recorded across norhteast Kansas between 11am and 4pm CST, and between 12pm and 5pm CST further east.
