It feels like fall & rainfall totals

Above is a picture from our American Century Investments skyview taken around 2:15 PM Friday. Rainfall amounts have been in the 1 to 3 inch range and close to 5 inches around Topeka. Here are some totals:

Lawrence: 2.60"
Leavenworth: 2.31"
Overland Park: 2.14"
Lee's Summit: 1.94"
Plaza: 1.72"
Liberty: 1.18"

Hurricane Rita weakened this afternoon, but there is still a chance she could strengthen again before making landfall Saturday morning. The NAM model takes Rita into eastern Texas. It actually is getting closer to us, but we may get our next chance of rain from the cold front arriving Sunday instead. Below is the NAM forecast for Sunday evening. Notice the cold front near KC and what is left of Rita across eastern Texas.

Have a great weekend!
