One schedule adjustment has been reported. The Flint Hills Beef Fest Golf Tournament has been delayed from its original start time of 8:30 am to 10 am this morning.
A handful of power outages developed near Burlington, Elmdale and Eureka. Those have affected less than 30 Westar and Lyon-Coffey customers combined.
A severe thunderstorm watch had been issued for Chase and Greenwood counties overnight, but that was canceled almost two hours earlier than the original 7 am expiration time.
Additional rainfall is possible through the morning. More rainfall is possible Monday afternoon and evening, and there is a marginal-to-slight severe weather risk for hail and high winds.
We’ll keep you updated on KVOE and KVOE social media. If you have rain totals, call KVOE at 342-1400, email kvoe@kvoe.com or post to Facebook@kvoenews.
