<><><> OVERNIGHT WEATHER <><><>
It was variably cloudy but dry- and cold throughout the Kansas City MetroRegion overnight.
Temperatures ranged widely to the upper single-digits in some outlying valley areas to around 20-degreees in urban locations early Sunday morning.
There was some scattered fog as well- but no problems reported either by Kansas or Missouri law enforcement agencies as of 6am.
A warm-up today before the New Year's Eve/Day 2008 chill.
Two cold fronts will come through beginning early Monday- only light rain and/or flurries appear possible now thank goodness- but bringing strong winds and colder temps- down to single-digit lows by Wednesday morning.
Warmer again by late week- then hints of a storm late next weekend- but more on that this week.
Happy New Year 2008 from the NBC41 Action News weekend overnight weather desk!!
