The rain will be moving in different directions today. Most of it will be moving south or east as it rotates on the backside of our latest system. This is a good chance to remind everyone that around low pressure, winds go counter-clockwise. If we lived in the Southern Hemisphere, it would of course be opposite.
A preview to the next couple of rain possibilities for Kansas:
Thursday night: A batch of storms could dive to the southeast and cross central and eastern Kansas. It's early, so we can't pin down the exact details of where the heaviest will be and timing, but we do have our eyes on this period.
Weekend chances:
Another setup may present itself over the weekend where we get a system pushing in from the western US. And this could set us up for widespread rains Saturday night and Sunday. This particular round has a good chance of soaking many areas. So stick with us during the rest of the week as this storm comes into better focus. We will be update you on possible rainfall amounts when we have a better idea.
Temperatures for the remainder of the month:
We still don't see any big heat returning to the Plains. And even our stretches of upper 90s look rather limited. So what we will likely see for the rest of the month will be upper 80s.
Rainfall for the remainder of August:
As mentioned above, the next week or so could be fairly active for the Plains, so let's hope we catch some of the moisture still coming our way. However, the longer range outlooks don't look very encouraging for the end of the month. Most of the rain may miss us to the north, so August may end on a dry note.
