A Wet Holiday Weekend?

Today we got some much needed rain across the Metro! Rainfall totals were light... ranging from .03" in Shawnee to .05" in Independence... but at least it's *something*, right?? We talked about this rain chance yesterday, if you watched any of our newscasts (or read the blog entry below!)

Another thing we talked about yesterday was that most of the rain this weekend would stay to our south but that it was somthing we'd have to watch. Well, sure enough, the data over the last 24 hours is trending this pecip farther to the NORTH. We were thinking it might come NORTH into the KC metro... and now it looks like very well might!

Let's break it down for you...

SATURDAY MORNING: Looks great. Mostly clear skies... a litte chilly with temperatures starting off in the lower 50s.

SATURDAY AFTERNOON: Partly cloudy, and warm with highs in the lower 80s. You might notice some increasing humidity.

SATURDAY EVENING/OVERNIGHT: A 50% chance of showers and thunderstorms.

SUNDAY MORNING: A 50% chance of showers and thunderstorms. We'll start off cool--near 60 degrees.

SUNDAY AFTERNOON: Looks like it could be cloudy and cool. Not really "pool" weather! Highs near 70 degrees.

So that is basically how the weekend is shaping up right NOW! We will tweak the forecast as we continue to get more data in!

Have a safe weekend!
