After a stormy night and scattered showers earlier this morning, Lawrence’s skies were clearing out by late morning.

“Some sunshine returns to the area this afternoon,” said Jennifer Schack, 6News meteorologist.

As of 10:30 a.m., Lawrence Municipal Airport had recorded 0.36 of an inch of rain since midnight. The temperature was 67 degrees, the humidity was 81 percent and winds were from the northwest at 5 mph.

Overnight, Lawrence’s temperature will fall to 54 degrees, Schack said.

Wednesday’s high temperature will be 70 degrees, with cloudy skies and north to northwest winds at 10 to 18 mph, she said.
