Good morning bloggers,
We just had our first true hard freeze this morning. There were many plants hanging in there, but today they were likely wiped out. The low dipped to near 20 degrees this morning. I slipped just a little on some ice early this morning, and my car spun, again just slightly, on some ice as well. So, if you are out early beware! Jennifer Hill sent this picture in from Easton, MO. This is sleet that accumulated. Will we have anything more than this over the winter? Our winter forecast comes out one week from tonight at 6 PM:
The weekend storm system brought us some nice rainfall amounts. How much rain did you receive?
Rainfall Totals:
- Downtown Kansas City: 1.43″
- Johnson County Executive, Olathe: 1.43″
- KCI Airport: 1.16″
It was a nice soaking rain, but when is the next one. We will go in search of our next storm on 41 Action News today and tonight.

We had exactly 2 inches in eastern Lee’s Summit.
I think your rain totals were a little off for some reason cuz he said he had
2 inches in Lee’s summit an i live in olathe an the rain gauge in our back yard said 2 1/2. Inches
1.02″ in McLouth KS. About an hour of rain/sleet/snow between 9AM and 10AM. At midnight it was 67.7°F and at 8AM it was 36.2°F.
Nice rain, but there’s no more precip in the seven day forecast. Does that mean we go right back into drought conditions?
1.32 in La Cygne.
1.65 se lee’s summit
Total rainfall for 131st and BlackBob in Olathe 1.64 inches
The drought never left, we are and will still be in it unless we get 11 inches of rain this month.
Tush/KFC.. How is the snow storm you predicted for this weekend shaping up?
What a joke!
KFC made a forecast off of the Euro model and he stated it was based only on the Euro model. According to some on here the models are always correct 7-10 days out so why not put it out there. Olathematt you’re a joke! Why are you not on here saying the same thing about your favorite 41 met when he misses badly? You people are a joke. KFC is a one man show who unlike some on here (headmet) actually make a forecast 7 days out without using wording that makes him correct whether it rains snows is sunny or a fireball falls from the sky. Keep up the good work KFC!
Yeah, I went to the store and stocked up, fueled up the generator and everything. . .
I didn’t need an ice scraper this morning as my cars are in the garage.
lol
Farmer instinct tells me around December 4th we’ll get 5 of snow
