- A thunderstorm complex is expected to form across
southwestern Kansas tonight, then make its way toward the
area late tonight into Friday morning. Exact track will
remain uncertain until the complex develops, but the most
likely track favors southern portions of the area for the
greatest rainfall. Potential exists for rainfall amounts of
1-3 inches with locally up to 5 inches. With recent rainfall,
soils are saturated and excessive rainfall will quickly lead
to flooding. Significant changes to the rainfall forecast is
possible with later updates, so stay aware.
