Could it be? Rain may just be on the way!

As you enjoy March Madness, the games, bracket busting, and cheering on your team, please continue to cheer on some rain. I know farmers and ranchers have just about had it with this weather pattern and the the seemingly endless dry spell we are in. It's a frustrating spot to be in right now, but all we can do is sit back and watch.

Thursday Night Rain:
What looked like a fairly decent shot at some moisture in northeast Kansas is now shaping up to be a dud. Latest trends are taking most of the meaningful moisture into Nebraska and Iowa. So again, another near miss for our state.


STORM TO WATCH - Sunday:
A storm that's been on the West coast for the last 3 days will finally be moving into the Plains at the end of the weekend. This storm has the possibility of being the biggest rain maker in months for some. If the "L" on the map tracks farther north, we are in trouble. If it continues to track farther south, we might end up with more than 10 drops.

Current Trend - moving the storm south


Rain chances would increase Sunday night and early Monday. Some snow may mix with the rain in northwest Kansas early Monday. The potential is there for some .50-1", but exactly where it falls is unknown right now. Let's hope the computer models are correct.
