Good morning bloggers,
The sun will return today with a few clouds at times. As we enjoy a calm and cooler spring day, let s take a look at what is going on in this weather pattern.
On Saturday night, a Tornado Watch was issued over a small area of eastern Kansas. There were no tornadoes, but Kansas City did have 1.60 of rain. The Kansas City metro area was not included in the Tornado Watch and we have almost gone two full years without even one Tornado Watch. The last one was issued on the day of the EF-4 tornado in Linwood, KS on May 28, 2019. Take a look at the Tornado Watches so far this year and last year:
