Is it true??

Good morning and finally, it's Friday. Yesterdays rain was just more of a tease than anything else, and if you were in northern Kansas, you probably didn't get anything at all. Even the areas that did have rain, it really wasn't much more than about a .10 of an inch. There has been some fog, and from the skycam view from downtown, it's beginning to burn off. We should be sunny the rest of the way today.

So I just heard (for the first time actually) that if it rains on Easter Sunday, it will rain the next 7 Sundays. Have you heard that before? One guy I talked with said it has happened before, while others would probably say no way. But when you think about how dry we are around Kansas, if that were to actually come true, we just might put a dent in the drought around here. Forecast models suggest rain amounts will be light over the weekend, with maybe some slightly higher amounts north. I think most of our weekend rainfall totals will be under .50", but we can always hope for more. This just isn't a very strong storm system coming our way.

Hope everyone has a Happy Easter. Blog update coming up on Monday. We will be focusing on potential severe storms next week. Stay tuned!
