KANSAS CITY, Mo. — You might want to give yourself a few extra minutes Tuesday morning before heading into work to check your car’s tire pressure.

The sudden drop in temperatures could cause tire pressure monitoring system warning lights to signal a warning.

KSHB 41 meteorologist Wes Peery outlined why tire pressure drops when temperatures fall in a recent weather academy. Watch the segment in the video player above.
