February weather forecast
Kansas, USA

As Kansas progresses through winter, February exhibits a slight alleviation in the icy conditions experienced in January, yet remains decisively cold. Average temperatures usually fluctuate from 20°F (-6.7°C) to 30°F (-1.1°C), marking a modest increase from January's colder extremes, but still setting the stage for frosty mornings and chilly evenings.

Western Kansas continues to witness notable snowfall in February, with accumulations averaging between 8" (203mm) to 18" (457mm). However, the eastern parts of the state generally experience slightly less snow, garnering figures from 5" (127mm) to 11" (279mm). This disparity, akin to January, is largely attributed to the region's altitude and the influence of the Rocky Mountains.

In February, occasional instances arise when the Chinook winds make their presence felt in western Kansas. These winds can momentarily elevate temperatures, sometimes even to levels surpassing 80°F (26.7°C). Such warm spells, though infrequent, offer a stark contrast to the otherwise wintry ambiance of the month.

Cities situated in the northwest, particularly those at higher elevations, remain vulnerable to frequent frosty conditions, making them consistently colder than areas in the south. Furthermore, the persistent winds that sweep across the state's expansive plains often amplify the chilly sensation, urging residents and visitors alike to bundle up in layers.
