TORRENTIAL RAIN!
A very early morning blog entry to tell you about some torrential rainfall that is occuring.
The heaviest rain has been on the Kansas side: Leavenworth, Atchision, Jackson, Jefferson and Shawnee counties. It has just begun to move into Missouri, affecting Platte county.
Looking at this doppler rainfall estimate, more than 10 inches of rain has fallen from this cutoff low. See the white part in Kansas? That is some major flooding:

HI I LIVE IN LEE'S SUMMIT AND LAST NIGHT (SATURDAY- EARLY SUNDAY)THERE WAS DAMAGING STORMS. OUR WHOLE PATIO FURNITURE, OUR TABLE WAS GLASSTOP, AND OUR 60 POUND GRILL WAS THROWN FROM OUR 5 FOOT DECK. A COUPLE OF NEIGHBORS HAD SIMILAR INSTANCES. WAS THERE A MICROBURST REPORTED. THERE WAS SOMETHING IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD, WHETHER IT WAS A VERY HEAVY STRAIGHT LINE WIND OR....
PLEASE EMAIL BACK TO LET ME KNOW WHAT IT COULD HAVE BEEN OR IF ANYTHING WAS REPORTED. I AM FROM OKLAHOMA AND I HAVE NVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THIS OTHER THAN FROM A TORNADO!!!
Lindsay,
The T-Storms that were in the area were not officially severe. However, it would not surprise us if there were 50-60 mph winds as the T-Storms were quite active.
