A strong storm system moves into the U.S. next week and will bring a risk of severe thunderstorms, heavy rainfall, and strong winds to our area. Severe hazards, areas affected, and timing will become more clear as we get closer to Monday. Check back for updates! #okwx #texomawx

Meteorologists (weather communicators) shpuld watch this. This is why "the weather people are always wrong". There is a serious math literacy problem in the US.

Light rain working its way across the state this evening. Some more is likely overnight. Not a ton... but everything helps. If we get around 5-6" in Wichita in the next 90 days we can knock out the drought. I think it can be done... 🤞🏻

A lot of rainfall is forecast for much of Kansas over the next few days. Drivers, be weather-aware and follow these tips to stay safe. Also, turn on your full headlights when it’s raining. #kswx @kshighwaypatrol
