Kansas in February

Spring and fall give you the best weather without the extremes. April through June brings wildflowers to the prairie - the Flint Hills turn into a carpet of purple and yellow. October offers perfect temperatures and harvest season colors. Summer gets hot and humid, especially July and August when temperatures hit the 90s regularly. But summer also means sunflower season - late July through August when fields bloom bright yellow. Winter brings ice storms and bitter cold, though it's beautiful if you can handle the weather. Tornado season runs March through June, with May being peak time. Check weather forecasts and have a plan. Spring can be unpredictable - 70 degrees one day, snow the next. Fall stays more consistent, with September and October offering the most reliable weather for outdoor activities.
