Rainfall update (how much more?) - Early frost alert!

Good Monday morning. First, the rainfall amounts since all of this began late last week:
These numbers are through 7 a.m. Monday morning!
24 miles NW of Salina: 5.69"
Medicine Lodge: 4.13"
Dodge City: 3.99"
Hays: 3.30"
Hutch: 2.81"
Pratt: 2.10"
Salina: 2.00"
Garden City: 1.64"
Wichita (Eisenhower): 1.14"
Goodland: 0.93"

It's looking like another widespread 1-2 inches will be likely, with some areas in central and eastern Kansas possibly getting another 2.50 to 3". So if you are dealing with flooding now, please keep an eye on things because this storm isn't over yet. Rain chances won't be ending until late Tuesday evening.

Soon to be Hurricane Michael -

It's developing and strengthening in the Gulf of Mexico and pushing north. HOWEVER, our current wet storm in the Plains will scoop up the storm and shove it east pretty quickly. So I don't think this will be in the news for very long.

More wet & chilly weather coming!

Another wet storm could impact Kansas and the Plains next weekend (Oct. 12-13) - we will be providing updates on this one very soon. The track is a bit uncertain this far out. So it travels farther north, it could mean another round of heavy rains for all in Kansas. Farther south might spare some areas.

Potential frost:

Early next week, we could see some widespread frost in the Plains. This particular image is for Monday morning, Oct. 15th. So I'm sounding the early alarm that the growing season might be ending for some in about a week. Lots of chilly air moving south.
