Watching for SOME rain-snow this week

Welcome to Monday and this could be an active week throughout the Plains. Active doesn't necessarily mean we are all going to get rain or snow, but there are several features to watch and track throughout the week. 

Now - Tuesday Evening:
A slow moving cold front (that will actually wobble back and forth) will help to spark off some rain and thunderstorms. Some wintry weather is possible in northeast Kansas, but most of the action will be east of the Flint Hills. Best chances for the rain to get farther west will come Tuesday morning or early afternoon, but even then, it's not likely to be any farther west than I-135.



Another chance Thursday:
There's another little batch of moisture coming through Thursday afternoon. Once again, the main focus will mainly be in eastern Kansas. This should be some light rain, mixed with a few snow showers in northeast Kansas. Amounts will be under 0.25"

Saturday - Feb. 24:
Another system will come through the Plains during the weekend and if we're lucky, another round of moisture will be possible. This won't be a drought busting setup, but chances for rain and snow will push through Kansas. We can't get too excited about this yet because the forecast can and will change some as time goes along. However, at least we have something on the horizon (other than fire danger and 0% chances of rain)
