Just a quick update. In the post I did on the 22nd I mentioned the "storm" we just experienced across Kansas. This is what I said "A few unlucky locations across the high plains will get less than 1/2 of
an inch of rain through Monday. But, some locations will get more than
3 inches through Monday! It all depends on individual storms and their
locations." Well it looks like a few areas "only" got 3/4 to 1 inch but for the most part it was a widespread 1 to 3 inch rain event! There were quite a few locations that got more than 4 inches. There were a few 5 to 6 inch reports near Preston and Pratt county. Here is the map of the 3 day accumulated rainfall (click for a larger version if you want):
The heavier rains will shift into west Texas for the remainder of the week as another system approaches. Even New Mexico and southern Colorado should benefit. There is a small chance the system gets close enough to Kansas to bring rains back into western Kansas.
Here is the latest outlook through early next week from the Weather Prediction Center:
Temperatures will remain on the cool side into the weekend.
I'll try and update again next week.
