KSFY SEVERE WEATHER CENTER
Rain Ending by Early AfternoonUpdated by KSFY Meteorologist Shawn Cable on Thursday, May 24 at 4:31 AMWe've had plenty of rain and, fortunately, not a lot of severe weather over the past 24 hours. The heaviest rain fell across southwest Minnesota and northwest Iowa. Most places have had at least an inch in the "rain bucket" with many reporting stations well above that. For a full list of rainfall totals, check out my blog: blog.shawncable.com. I'll update the numbers as they come in and change throughout the day. Scattered rain and thunderstorms will continue today. The heaviest rain is over, but we could still get another one or two tenths before the day is over. The system that brought our rain has moved east and will bring severe storms to eastern Minnesota and western Wisconsin this afternoon and tonight. Tomorrow will be partly to mostly cloudy with scattered showers and afternoon temps in the mid to upper 60s. It won't be windy tomorrow, but 60s might be just a little chilly for opening day at the pools. Saturday and Sunday will be much better for the pool with a partly cloudy sky and afternoon temps in the 80s. We will have to dodge a few thunderstorms on Saturday and Sunday. A few storms could be severe – especially on Sunday. Memorial Day will be dry and cooler with high temps in the 70s. |
