Goodland, KS – Sunday rainfall totals in Goodland and surrounding areas fell well below expectations as a storm system shifted south. Residents saw only 0.05 to 0.50 inches of rain, instead of the anticipated 0.5 to 1.0+ inches. This unexpected dry spell has left locals looking ahead to potential precipitation early next week.
According to the National Weather Service (NWS) in Goodland, a low-pressure system moved farther south than expected, pulling dry air into the region and preventing the first round of rain from developing. While Sunday brought minimal showers, meteorologists predict rain will return by Monday evening, with a chance of heavier precipitation lasting through Tuesday.
Drivers on I-70 should prepare for slick roads and lower visibility during Monday’s commute. Travelers are encouraged to check weather updates for more accurate forecasts and make adjustments to travel plans if necessary.
