KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Good Sunday, bloggers,
We escaped the brunt of the severe weather with this situation, except for one event between 10:30-11:30 p.m. Saturday.
What happened last night south of the river as winds gusted to 60-70 mph and in locations where there were just a few sprinkles behind the thunderstorm?

Rainfall for most locations was between .10" and 1", and it came down in a manner where the ground could soak it up.
