Soggy St. Patrick's Day

We'll need the luck of the Irish today if we want to get St. Patrick's Day Parade in dry, and it doesn't look like it's going to come through this time. Rain moved in early this morning and is here to stay for the most part. It may let up at times during the day, but otherwise, look for a steady light to moderate rain continuing through at least noon, most likely into the early afternoon. We may see more redevelopment this evening as a stationary boundary tries to lift north across the region. It may make it as far north as the southern reaches of Kansas City before it begins to progress southward again. This boundary will be the focus for more heavy rain and thunderstorms this evening. There may even be some strong storms along this boundary, although severe storms are not very likely. Total rainfall will likely be between .5 and 1" of rain, with areas that experiencing thunderstorms receiving upwards of 1.5".


The data this morning continues to hint at a possible storm this weekend for Easter Sunday. So make sure to keep up to date as we track this next storm that could possibly affect the region this weekend.
