A Monday night shower looks to be the last of the rain for a few days as the Hays community prepares for the Wild West Festival this holiday week.

Official reports showed a small amount of rain in gauges Tuesday morning, with trace amounts in Hays and up to 0.05 inches south of town. The final rain of June pushed the total rainfall for the month to nearly 9.5 inches. Before June, Hays had received less than 3 inches of rain for the first five months of 2014.

The lightning show to the south that moved through the area in the evening wasn’t accompanied by much precipitation, but Trego, Ness, Rush, Osborne and Russell counties reported at least some moisture.

Farther to the south, Kiowa County reported nearly 3 inches of rain from the Monday night front.

The forecast calls for cooler temperatures and clear skies for the next couple of days, with the next chance of storms coming Thursday night.
