Rain totals for Lexington, MO were 6.25".  We are ready for the dry weather so we can mow our grass now!

Hi Jeremy - rain total for the wx event beginning Friday is 5.9" here at 119th zand Woodland in Olathe

Keep up the good work

We got 5.7" overall Thurs thru today in eastern Shawnee..........and the grass is knee deep!  But the bare areas that were overseeded is going to look good soon..........

NO RAIN FOR TEN DAYS AT LEAST SO THE FIELDS CAN DRY, CORN NEEDS TO DRY AND BEENS ARE STILL GROWING.....  NO MORE AND A 15-30 mph wind will help dry as much as 77-81.

Another .69 from last night and early this morning...bringing my total in SW Grain Valley...3.67. Looking forward to some warm sunshine...lots of mowing ahead!!

Grr when I don't realize there is a new blog. To repost:
Scott, Friday caught me totally off guard. When I left to get my daughter at school at 3pm for an appt in Leawood I was just happy the rain had cut down to sprinkles and pretty much stopped. The next thing I know around 1700 the ex is calling , telling me there is a warning for Johnson County. I did NOT want to be caught on 435 in OP during rush hour. I guess I have watched Sean drive enough now to safely but expediently get to an area where I could pull over somewhere if need be. I am training Kristen to watch the clouds so she can go with me next season. She had her eye on the right clouds just in case. Even though nothing happened in my area , I prefer to err on the side of caution and am also aware that many people on the road are oblivious as to what is going on, as evidenced by the many folks we saw driving INTO the storms we chased that were not chasers.

I cannot believe the Chargers lost. I told my dad I am so mad at his buddy Ed H., the ref.

I thought today felt great even with the wind. The sun poked through a couple times, and after not seeing it for a few days, it was pretty bright. Then some mist came through.

I just cant believe I got 7.30 inches of rain here in Marceline. I recieved a little over an inch last night with Ike.

Looks like Powercast nailed it again with that band of heavier rainfall.

Once again 7.30 inches Wed through Sun here in Marceline =]

Alex,

You've had a very wet year!  Do you have total for 2008?

Hi Jeremy,
Just back from a trip to Beloit, KS, northweat of Salina.  I left Friday after work and drove west on K-10 toward Lawrence.  The rain came in torrents from all directions, it was quite frightening for awhile.  I turned on the radio after driving through the downpour to hear the news of the tornadoes passing overhead right where I was driving!  I'm glad I didn't know then, what I know now...ha!
In Paola we got a 4 day total of 5.4", way too much for me!  Glad I was gone.  We had beautiful sunshiny weather in Beloit.  It was a nice drive back today, pretty much, uneventful, just the way I like it.

Thanks for the total.

So to anyone in the weather center that can tell me... Our air conditioner gave out on us and we wont be able to replace it until next spring.  Can you please tell me if you think we'll be okay for the rest of this year?  It can get awfully warm in the living room if the temp gets close to 80...and if its humid it ugh too.  : )

I would say there will be days that the a/c will still be needed over the next month.

Jeremy
