Dennis Makes Landfall

If you haven't heard... Hurricane Dennis made landfall this afternoon near Pensacola, Florida. It was a Category 3 Hurricane as it came ashore... but has since been downgraded to a Category 2. Dennis will continue to weaken over land into a Depression.

Bands of showers/thunderstorms have developed over Southern Missouri and Arkansas... take a look at the radar image from 4:30 this afternoon:

I think this could be the trend over the next few days. We could see spotty precipitation here in Kansas City as Dennis moves North into the bootheel of Missouri. Here is the projected path of Dennis:

The best chance of any rain will, of course, be our Eastern viewing area... and the farther East you go... the higher the chances. It looks like we will see increased cloud cover here... which should keep temps down a bit Tuesday and Wednesday.
