Rainfall Totals 7/21/2009


Rainfall estimated rainfall is shown ending at about 12:30 pm on 7/21/2009. Isolated storms Monday afternoon helped to boost the overall totals in areas around and southeast of Springfield. Eastern Kansas certainly received the heaviest rainfall as they were subjected to both storms and longer lasting rain periods.

The rain is beginning to exit slowly to the east today. Expect totals in areas to the far southeast of Springfield to end up with broad 1-2" totals before the precipitation ends.

  2. Jay,

    Yes, it seems like fall doesn't it! Up until the recent rain, you're area was the only one with above normal rainfall over about the last thirty days.

    The persistant upper level trough which we've been on the edge of is the culprit for the cool. My most recent post talks about this pattern shifting closer to us next week.
