Latest Rain Totals

Saturday started off mostly sunny with warm, southerly winds.  The high temperature was 81°, recorded at 10:56AM.  From there, clouds began to move into the picture, cooling temperatures down.  Clouds then gave way to rain just ahead of a cold front that swept through the metro around 6:30 Saturday evening.

The heaviest of the rain fell west of the Mississippi River, with a general tenth of an inch to third of an inch.  As the cold front continued its trek to the east it began to lose some of its forcing, allowing some of the rain to dissipate, hence the lower rain totals.

While we didn't receive a beneficial rain this time around, there are promising signs of a good rain by the end of next week.  Here's WPC's outlook valid through next Sunday.
WPC shows over an inch of rain possibly across the are through next Sunday.
The cause of the rain will be another cold front.  This is still 5 to 6 days away, so we'll keep you updated through the next week on CBS4 and cbs4qc.com.
