Dodge City, Kansas – Southwest Kansas residents should brace for several rounds of thunderstorms and scattered showers continuing through Sunday, with some areas likely to see up to 2 inches of rainfall.
According to the National Weather Service in Dodge City, an unsettled pattern paired with abundant moisture is fueling near-daily chances for rain and storms through April 28. While it won’t rain nonstop, each day carries a risk for showers—especially in southwestern counties like Ford, Meade, and Finney.
Rainfall totals will vary, but NWS expects widespread amounts between 0.5 and 2 inches, with heavier accumulations possible farther east. Thunderstorms may bring localized flooding, strong wind gusts, and even severe conditions at times.
Drivers should watch for slick roads and temporary ponding during peak downpours. Residents are urged to secure outdoor items, check sump pumps, and avoid travel during severe weather alerts.
This active weather pattern may persist into early next week. Additional advisories and warnings are likely as the system evolves.
