Total rainfall through 10pm
Our threat for severe weather continues to deminish as we head through the overnight. The second wave of energy has taken it’s time emerging into the plains and thunderstorms are only now beginning to redevelop along the retreating dryline and cold front. While severe thunderstorms are still possible (including some strong thunderstorm wind gusts), the main threat for severe weather is now over. Our attention now turns to the threat for heavy rainfall.
Some areas between Abilene and Hiawatha have have 2-4 inches of rainfall already as the line of thunderstorms have taken their time moving to the east. This line will continue to progress slowly to the east and will bring the Kansas City area into a period of heavy rainfall from about 3 until 7 or 8 in the morning. Rain totals of 1-3 inches are not out of the question, which may case some areas of flooding for the morning commute.
