Rainfall amounts + more chances looming

Hope you had a great weekend. The wind was a nuisance for most of us, but it won't be quite as bad as we go throughout this week. It won't exactly be calm winds, but gusts will be closer to 30 rather than 50 like some had on Sunday.

Rainfall amounts look like this (ending at 7 am Monday):

Heaviest amounts were generally along and east of I-135.

Smith Center: 0.23"

Next close call for some rain - early Wednesday:
This is a front that will pass through quickly. A couple of showers may get stirred up along and east of I-135 once again. Amounts should be under .10" (if you get anything at all)

A more substantial system could impact the area at the end of the week:

Unlikely to be a major storm - but a system that will spend most of the week out by California will begin to push through Friday night/early Saturday. This will run into just enough cold air that a rain snow mix will present itself to Kansas Friday night. At this time, I'd say 70% of what we get in our area will be rain, but farther north, some snow is expected. It's a little early to make a call on amounts, but even if it collects in grassy areas, it will be history Saturday with south winds and warming temperatures.

Have a great day.
