One of the last things we think about when it comes to hurricanes is SNOW. The two just don't go together because the dynamics of the storm and obviously, the temperatures. However, what's left of Hurricane Larry is about to turn into a snowstorm - in Greenland!
Look at the location of Larry just northeast of Newfoundland. The big yellow blob shows the tropical rainfall still occurring on the northeast quadrant of the system.
Saturday afternoon, there is still evidence of the storm just off the coast of Greenland, and look at the developing snow as the moisture goes from the water to the coast. It instantly switches over.
Early Sunday, there is still heavy snow occurring because of the tropical system.
Rain for the Plains:
The next cold front to bring September weather back to Kansas arrives Tuesday. We should have a pretty good chance of developing rain around the state, but heaviest sure looks like it will be central and eastern areas. I would expect under .50" for the western half of the state, with .50-1"+ farther east.
And it's going to cool down - at least briefly anyway. We've had a hard time getting fall to stick around for more than a day or two, and I expect that may be the case for the rest of September. Just take a look at the last full week of the month. Most models trend toward warmer (on average), so any cool spell is likely going to be brief.
