You can read comments under last night's blog entry for more totals. And while we're talking rainfall totals... here is a great email we received from David, one of our bloggers:

I want to inform you about an organization that I belong to called Community Collaborative Rain Hail and Snow network, or CoCoRaHS for short (pronounce Co Co Ra.) It is a network of volunteers that collect and report rain, snow and hail every day. All reports are plotted on a map. Their objective is to create a very comprehensive network of weather reporters across the country to pick up on precipitation trends. It is a very amazing network and many people are going to benefit from this program. They are in great need of more volunteers from Kansas and Missouri. For more information here is the link to their home page, http://cocorahs.org/. Please consider it.

This evening... there are still some spotty showers and isolated thunderstorms out there. So I will continue a 30% chance of rain this evening and overnight, as waves continue to spin around our upper low. The low is now in Iowa... you can see it spinning on the satellite loop... pretty impressive:

That low will slowly move north and away from Kansas City for Monday. That means, we can expect dry conditions and even a little sunshine! Temperatures will be on a warming trend... with 70s Monday... and near 80 on Tuesday! We are still watching a system that could bring us more thunderstorms by Wednesday. Stay tuned!

What a great race today... congrats to all who participated in the Trolley Run!!
