Late summer days in Kansas City can be brutal. According to local weather data, temperatures reached upwards of 90 degrees on Thursday in St. Joeseph, Missouri, with 57% humidity, causing the heat index to feel closer to 100 degrees outside.

“It’s a love-hate relationship,” said Chiefs safety Bryan Cook.
