Spring scenes on KU campus

                 

Weather

Weather forecasts are provided by KU's Dr. Michael Davis and "Monsoon Mike" Regensburger

The pesky wildfire smoke from the past two days should hopefully be less of an issue today, but it could still make for a haze to the otherwise sunny skies. It’ll turn very warm and summery, as well, but dewpoints otherwise stay in check, so it should still be reasonably comfortable.

Announcements
